  25 /*
  26    In the name of this class, "V" may stand for "variable" because it can be
  27    used for scrolling lines of variable heights; "virtual" because it is not
  28    necessary to know the heights of all lines in advance -- only those which
  29    are shown on the screen need to be measured; or, even, "vertical" because
  30    this class only supports scrolling in one direction currently (this could
  31    and probably will change in the future however).
  32
  33    In any case, this is a generalization of the wxScrolledWindow class which
  34    can be only used when all lines have the same height. It lacks some other
  35    wxScrolledWindow features however, notably it currently lacks support for
  36    horizontal scrolling; it can't scroll another window nor only a rectangle
  37    of the window and not its entire client area.
