[3.14a Pro] Scroll Lock Key
 
Before when you paged up to go through your buffer, if you hit the scroll lock key, it would get out of the scroll back. Now it scrolls you back to the bottom, but doesn't get you out of the scroll back. Was this changed on purpose? I like the old functionality better myself.

That isn't anything that I changed myself. I usually use the Ctrl-Z key to toggle the splitscreen on/off, so I've never actually used the Scroll Lock key (it's not in a good place on my keyboard).

But I tried it and I see what you mean. The Scroll Lock just moves to the bottom of the scroll region. The thing is that I haven't done anything in CMUD to cause this. I wonder if it's a new Windows "feature". Can somebody try this on Windows XP and see what happens? I don't have access to my WinXP machine right now.

Edited: Nevermind, I just confirmed that this doesn't happen in v3.12, so something in CMUD must have changed. It might be something that got updated in the Developer Express components.

Could it be related to the problems with page up/page down?

I don't think so. As far as I remember off the top of my head, the ScrollLock key should be calling the exact same routine as the Ctrl-Z key. And Ctrl-Z works fine. I'll have to look at the exact code in the debugger next week.
