Description
The integer maxscroll property tells us the largest allowed scroll value for a text field. It
represents the number of the last line in a text field that can be used as the top line in its
viewable region. Note that
maxscroll is not equal to the number of text lines; that value
must be obtained manually, as discussed under
TextField.bottomScroll.
See Example R-7 under
TextField.scroll for sample scrolling code.
