Question

I’m having a bit of trouble with this logic. My setup is typical, with a content MC and a handle MC the runs along a track with specified bounds. All I want to do is have the handle height adjust based on content height but in relation to the track height?

I’m just not sure how to tackle this idea.

Answer 1

if :

contentHeight = 200 (height of the content)

visibleAreaHeight = 100 (height of the visible area)

scrollBarHeight = 100 (height of the Scrollbar)

then the height of the scrollbar handle is :

handleHeight = (visibleAreaHeight / contentHeight) * scrollBarHeight // 50

The height of the handle represents the visible tip of contents.
