Customizing the ScrollPane

You can transform a ScrollPane component horizontally and vertically while authoring and at run time. While authoring, select the component on the Stage and use the Free Transform tool or any of the Modify > Transform commands. At run time, use the setSize() method or any applicable properties and methods of the ScrollPane class, such as the height, width, scaleX, and scaleY.

The ScrollPane component has the following graphical characteristics:

The registration point (also origin point or zero point) of its content is in the upper-left corner of the pane.
When the horizontal scroll bar is turned off, the vertical scroll bar is displayed from top to bottom along the right side of the scroll pane. When the vertical scroll bar is turned off, the horizontal scroll bar is displayed from left to right along the bottom of the scroll pane. You can also turn off both scroll bars.
If the scroll pane is too small, the content may not display correctly.
When the scroll pane is resized, the scroll track and scroll box (thumb) expand or contract, and their hit areas are resized. The buttons remain the same size.
