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).
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.
