   1 \wxheading{Event table macros}
   2
   3 To process a scroll event, use these event handler macros to direct input to
   4 member functions that take a wxScrollEvent argument. You can use
   5 {\tt EVT\_COMMAND\_SCROLL...} macros with window IDs for when intercepting
   6 scroll events from controls, or {\tt EVT\_SCROLL...} macros without window IDs
   7 for intercepting scroll events from the receiving window -- except for this,
   8 the macros behave exactly the same.

  38 \wxheading{The difference between {\tt EVT\_SCROLL\_THUMBRELEASE} and {\tt EVT\_SCROLL\_CHANGED}}
  39
  40 The {\tt EVT\_SCROLL\_THUMBRELEASE} event is only emitted when actually dragging
  41 the thumb using the mouse and releasing it (This {\tt EVT\_SCROLL\_THUMBRELEASE}
  42 event is also followed by an {\tt EVT\_SCROLL\_CHANGED} event).
  43
  44 The {\tt EVT\_SCROLL\_CHANGED} event also occurs when using the keyboard to
  45 change the thumb position, and when clicking next to the thumb (In all these
  46 cases the {\tt EVT\_SCROLL\_THUMBRELEASE} event does not happen).
  47
  48 In short, the {\tt EVT\_SCROLL\_CHANGED} event is triggered when scrolling/
  49 moving has finished independently of the way it had started. Please see the
  50 widgets sample ("Slider" page) to see the difference between {\tt
  51 EVT\_SCROLL\_THUMBRELEASE} and {\tt EVT\_SCROLL\_CHANGED} in action.
