ui/scroll.rs
1//! A styled scrollbar over gpui's own scroll handles.
2//!
3//! gpui scrolls a `div` perfectly well and draws nothing while it does, so a
4//! bezel app has no way to show how far down it is. This is that bar, and only
5//! that bar: the caller keeps its own `overflow_y_scroll` container, because a
6//! wrapper that swallowed the content would have to re-implement layout for it.
7//!
8//! ```ignore
9//! div().relative() // the bar is absolute in here
10//! .child(
11//! div()
12//! .id("pane")
13//! .size_full()
14//! .overflow_y_scroll()
15//! .track_scroll(&self.scroll) // gpui's handle, the app's field
16//! .child(content),
17//! )
18//! .child(scroll::scrollbar("pane-bar", &self.scroll, &self.scroll_bar))
19//! ```
20//!
21//! The bar must span the container it reports on — its track *is* the viewport,
22//! in the coordinates [`thumb`] answers in.
23//!
24//! The geometry is transcribed from zed's own scrollbar (`thumb_ranges` in
25//! `crates/ui/src/components/scrollbar.rs`), which is 1722 lines of settings
26//! system around the fifteen that matter. Two of gpui's conventions are easy to
27//! get backwards and both are load-bearing here: `max_offset` is the *overflow*
28//! (content minus viewport, not content), and `offset` is **negative** as you
29//! scroll down.
30//!
31//! [`transient`] is the same bar, shown only while its content moves.
