+    A wxScrollBar is a control that represents a horizontal or vertical scrollbar.
+
+    It is distinct from the two scrollbars that some windows provide automatically,
+    but the two types of scrollbar share the way events are received.
+
+    @remarks
+    A scrollbar has the following main attributes: range, thumb size, page size, and position.
+    The range is the total number of units associated with the view represented by the scrollbar.
+    For a table with 15 columns, the range would be 15.
+    The thumb size is the number of units that are currently visible.
+    For the table example, the window might be sized so that only 5 columns are
+    currently visible, in which case the application would set the thumb size to 5.
+    When the thumb size becomes the same as or greater than the range, the scrollbar
+    will be automatically hidden on most platforms.
+    The page size is the number of units that the scrollbar should scroll by,
+    when 'paging' through the data. This value is normally the same as the thumb
+    size length, because it is natural to assume that the visible window size defines a page.
+    The scrollbar position is the current thumb position.
+    Most applications will find it convenient to provide a function called AdjustScrollbars()
+    which can be called initially, from an OnSize event handler, and whenever the
+    application data changes in size. It will adjust the view, object and page
+    size according to the size of the window and the size of the data.

+    @section scrollbar_diff The difference between EVT_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE and EVT_SCROLL_CHANGED
+
+    The EVT_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE event is only emitted when actually dragging the
+    thumb using the mouse and releasing it (This EVT_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE event
+    is also followed by an EVT_SCROLL_CHANGED event).
+
+    The EVT_SCROLL_CHANGED event also occurs when using the keyboard to change
+    the thumb position, and when clicking next to the thumb
+    (In all these cases the EVT_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE event does not happen).
+
+    In short, the EVT_SCROLL_CHANGED event is triggered when scrolling/moving has
+    finished independently of the way it had started. Please see the widgets sample
+    ("Slider" page) to see the difference between EVT_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE and
+    EVT_SCROLL_CHANGED in action.

+            font. The window is sized so that you can only see 16 lines at a time.
+            You would use:

+            The page size is 1 less than the thumb size so that the last line of
+            the previous page will be visible on the next page, to help orient the user.
+            Note that with the window at this size, the thumb position can never
+            go above 50 minus 16, or 34.
+            You can determine how many lines are currently visible by dividing
+            the current view size by the character height in pixels.
+            When defining your own scrollbar behaviour, you will always need to
+            recalculate the scrollbar settings when the window size changes.
+            You could therefore put your scrollbar calculations and SetScrollbar()
+            call into a function named AdjustScrollbars, which can be called
