It only takes a few lines of code to solve the problem, see below.

I'm still going to give you an example with the pagepanel because
that will work with either Pro or Standard and I don't know which you
have.
Now that you no longer need to have 2 windows, just add your 'global'
property to the App class:
App.HasHorizontalScroll as Boolean
Then add a computed property to the Window:
ActiveEditField as EditField
With this Getter:
If App.HasHorizontalScroll Then
If PagePanel1.Value <> 0 Then PagePanel1.Value = 0
Return EditField1 //has the horizontal scrolbar and sits on
Panel zero
Else
If PagePanel1.Value <> 1 Then PagePanel1.Value = 1
Return EditField2 //has NO horizontal scrolbar and sits on
Panel one
End If
Now you can simply work with ActiveEditField regardless of the user's
preference.
You can even allow the user to switch from one view to the other on
the fly by updating the content of the EditFields when there is a
change in panes in the code above.
If you'd use a CheckBox to switch on the fly this would be its code:
app.HasHorizontalScroll = me.value
ActiveEditField.Enabled = true //This line is added so the right
panel will be shown immediately
Hope this helps,
Marc
