CTimerScroll class

Introduction

This class is useful for scrolling CWnd derived objects, for example CScrollView, and helps you to handle mouse cursor movement near the client's border. The CTimerScroll object sends WM_HSCROLL and WM_VSCROLL messages to your object.

It has only 3 methods:

1. Register(CWnd* pWnd) - Registers the windows object to send messages to.
2. Install() - Installs the timer and captures the mouse cursor
3. Unistall() - Helper method to unistall the timer.

How to use

1. Insert a CTimerScroll object in your CWnd derived class.
2. Invoke Register in your init creation process. For example OnInitialUpdate, OnCreate, ....
3. In the OnLButtonDown message handler, call Install(), this method capture the mouse for you.
4. In the OnLButtonUp message handler, call ReleaseCapture, to release the mouse. This unistall the timer automatically.

Of course you must handle the scrolling messages.

Sample code

The TSSample sample is a MFC SDI VC++6 aplication sample, and uses the CTimerScroll. The TSSampleView is derived from CScrollView (this MFC class have scroll handler methods build in).
