## Class JScrollPane.ScrollBar

- java.lang.Object
- - java.awt.Component
  - - java.awt.Container
    - - javax.swing.JComponent
      - - javax.swing.JScrollBar
        - - javax.swing.JScrollPane.ScrollBar

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    Adjustable, ImageObserver, MenuContainer, Serializable, Accessible, UIResource
  Enclosing class:
    JScrollPane

      protected class JScrollPane.ScrollBar
      extends JScrollBar
      implements UIResource

  By default `JScrollPane` creates scrollbars that are instances of this class. `Scrollbar` overrides the `getUnitIncrement` and `getBlockIncrement` methods so that, if the viewport's view is a `Scrollable`, the view is asked to compute these values. Unless the unit/block increment have been explicitly set.

  Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage of all JavaBeans™ has been added to the `java.beans` package. Please see `XMLEncoder`.

- - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### ScrollBar

          public ScrollBar(int orientation)

      Creates a scrollbar with the specified orientation. The options are:
      - `ScrollPaneConstants.VERTICAL`
      - `ScrollPaneConstants.HORIZONTAL`
      Parameters:
        `orientation` - an integer specifying one of the legal orientation values shown above
      Since:
        1.4

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### setUnitIncrement

          public void setUnitIncrement(int unitIncrement)

      Messages super to set the value, and resets the `unitIncrementSet` instance variable to true.
      Specified by:
        `setUnitIncrement` in interface `Adjustable`
      Overrides:
        `setUnitIncrement` in class `JScrollBar`
      Parameters:
        `unitIncrement` - the new unit increment value, in pixels
      See Also:
        `JScrollBar.getUnitIncrement(int)`

    - #### getUnitIncrement

          public int getUnitIncrement(int direction)

      Computes the unit increment for scrolling if the viewport's view is a `Scrollable` object. Otherwise return `super.getUnitIncrement`.
      Overrides:
        `getUnitIncrement` in class `JScrollBar`
      Parameters:
        `direction` - less than zero to scroll up/left, greater than zero for down/right
      Returns:
        an integer, in pixels, containing the unit increment
      See Also:
        `Scrollable.getScrollableUnitIncrement(java.awt.Rectangle, int, int)`

    - #### setBlockIncrement

          public void setBlockIncrement(int blockIncrement)

      Messages super to set the value, and resets the `blockIncrementSet` instance variable to true.

      Overrides:
        `setBlockIncrement` in class `JScrollBar`
      Parameters:
        `blockIncrement` - the new block increment value, in pixels
      See Also:
        `JScrollBar.getBlockIncrement()`

    - #### getBlockIncrement

          public int getBlockIncrement(int direction)

      Computes the block increment for scrolling if the viewport's view is a `Scrollable` object. Otherwise the `blockIncrement` equals the viewport's width or height. If there's no viewport return `super.getBlockIncrement`.
      Overrides:
        `getBlockIncrement` in class `JScrollBar`
      Parameters:
        `direction` - less than zero to scroll up/left, greater than zero for down/right
      Returns:
        an integer, in pixels, containing the block increment
      See Also:
        `Scrollable.getScrollableBlockIncrement(java.awt.Rectangle, int, int)`
