In the single-line mode, the only way I got to make it scroll
automatically to the right was to enable the line wrap and so:
et = elm_entry_add(win);
elm_entry_single_line_set(et, TRUE);
elm_entry_editable_set(et, TRUE);
elm_entry_line_wrap_set(et, TRUE);
I don't know, why but also using elementary_test this is the only way to
make the single-line entry to scroll as soon as you write (so to make
the scroller follow the cursor).
By the way, unfortunately this doesn't work with the password fields.
