+
+ This method is useful when only a part of the window should be
+ scrolled. A typical example is a control consisting of a fixed header
+ and the scrollable contents window: the scrollbars are attached to the
+ main window itself, hence it, and not the contents window must be
+ derived from wxScrolled, but only the contents window scrolls when the
+ scrollbars are used. To implement such setup, you need to call this
+ method with the contents window as argument.
+
+ Notice that if this method is used, GetSizeAvailableForScrollTarget()
+ method must be overridden.
