This seems like a good way to approach this problem. I don't know too
much about the VScrollBar, but it seems straight forward.
These are its properties:
lineScrollSize="1"
maxScrollPosition="0"
minScrollPosition="0"
pageScrollSize="Reset to the pageSize parameter of
setScrollProperties"
pageSize="0"
scrollPosition="0"
How can I dynamically set all these values to emulate the EXACT look
of the datagrids vertical scroll bar?
