This example does not work anymore (since 3.0, it worked pre-3.0).

function MyMod_OnLoad()

    MyModData = "Test "..math.random(100)

  end

  MyModScrollBar:Show()

end



function MyModScrollBar_Update()

  local line; -- 1 through 5 of our window to scroll

  local lineplusoffset; -- an index into our data calculated from the scroll offset

  FauxScrollFrame_Update(MyModScrollBar,50,5,16);

  for line=1,5 do

    lineplusoffset = line + FauxScrollFrame_GetOffset(MyModScrollBar);

    if lineplusoffset <= 50 then

      getglobal("MyModEntry"..line):SetText(MyModData[lineplusoffset]);

      getglobal("MyModEntry"..line):Show();

    else

      getglobal("MyModEntry"..line):Hide();

    end

After a lot of searching i was able to find that i had to change:

Code:

          <OnVerticalScroll>

            FauxScrollFrame_OnVerticalScroll(16, MyModScrollBar_Update);

          </OnVerticalScroll>

To:

Code:

          <OnVerticalScroll>

            FauxScrollFrame_OnVerticalScroll(self, offset, 16, MyModScrollBar_Update);

          </OnVerticalScroll>

But i still cannot get the window to display the numbers. I think it is a problem with:

Code:

getglobal("MyModEntry"..line):SetText(MyModData[lineplusoffset]);

but i cant find a solution anywhere. Does anyone know how to fix this?
