Is it possible to create buttons to ‘Page Up’ and ‘Page Down’ the contents of a table, The scroll bars are a little difficult to use on a touch screen.

Thanks in advance

You can put the following script on a button that will scroll the table down:`from java.awt import Rectangle
table = event.source.parent.getComponent('Table').getTable()
viewport = table.getParent()
rect = viewport.getViewRect()
newRect = Rectangle(rect.x, rect.y + 50, rect.width, rect.height)
table.scrollRectToVisible(newRect)`You can use the same code to scroll up but do -50 instead of +50. Hope that helps.
