The problem is that it will begin to scroll and it moves about a quarter of an inch and stops, at which point I can no longer scroll back to the original pane.

The most annoying thing is EMAILS!!!! there seems NO way to scroll up and check your text at all. The ipad is quite invaluable to me to keep in touch on the move, but emailing is ghastly because of this and I always compose on the notepad first and copy and paste. Very annoying. A big shortcoming on an otherwise BRILLIANT device! Well, it doesn’t work for me. The most annoying thing is EMAILS!!!! there seems NO way to scroll up and check your text at all.

Does anyone know how to get the scrollbars to appear as a visual key. If it is not possible I am thinking maybe to display some semi transparent arrows at the bottom of the scoll area to make it apparent that there is more to see.. any thoughts on this approach? Jonathan Carter Hi,

I can scroll with 2 fingers within an EXTJS panel but I don’t think that the users will know that scolling is possible i.e. that there is more content to see.

Does anyone know how to get the scrollbars to appear as a visual key.
