Scripts: Scrolling

[spottysallrite]

In reviewing code it's often nice to use the automatic scroll feature of Windows. That is, select a spot in the window (I like the mid, right side), then click down on the scroll wheel of the mouse. This puts a scroll icon on the window, allowing one to scroll up and down by simply moving the mouse, rather than having to move the scroll wheel or click on the up/dn arrows.

Would it be possible to enable this feature in the script Editor ?

Hello spottysallrite,

Thanks for your note.

Unfortunately, the auto-scroll feature that you are describing cannot be used in the NinjaScript Editor window.

Please let us know if we may assist further.

That's disappointing. Why not ? Isn't it something that simply needs to be enabled within the NinjaTrader 8 code ?
