Now it could be possible that the width of this canvas is too large for the screen width so I would need horizontal scrollbars to be able to scroll to the end of the canvas. My canvas class extends the JPanel object so maybe I have to use JScrollPane(?) Now I tried to use ScrollBar directly, as well as reading the API about the JScrollPane but I'm still confused about how to use... Once again, thanks very much in advance for any help. With best regards Frank Back to top Tor Iver Wilhelmsen Guest Posted: Sat May 28, 2005 9:52 am    Post subject: Re: Adding Scrollbars to a canvas "Frank Meyer" <f.meyer (AT) 1und1 (DOT) de> writes: Quote: I created a canvas whre some objects are drawn.
