When using matchentry i found that if number of entries in listlistbox < height of listbox
the scrollbars dissappear which is whats supposed to happen.
But if i deleted some of the entry field so that number of entries > height
then the scrollbars do not reappear as they should.
The only way i have found to cure this is to edit the matchentry.pm so that instead of lines 61-63
my $scrolled_listbox = $popup_frame->Scrolled( qw/Listbox -selectmode browse -scrollbars oe -exportselection +0/ );
i used
my $scrolled_listbox = $popup_frame->Scrolled( qw/Listbox -selectmode browse -scrollbars e -exportselection 0 +/ );
and at line 877
$scrolled_listbox->configure(-scrollbars => 'oe');
changed to
$scrolled_listbox->configure(-scrollbars => 'e');
it worked and the scrollbars appear,disappear and reappear as they should
But now i have a matchentry.pm thats different to the standard one. So is there some kind of work round that doesnt require editing this?or do i have to do somthing else so that my app will work on other machines?
