Re: scrolling an NSText to the bottom

use scrollRangeToVisible instead of scrollRectToVisible, it will be much simpler.

This is from sample code on cocoadevcentral, the Wrapping UNIX Commands II tutorial:

NSRange theEnd=NSMakeRange([[textView string] length],0);

// append new string to the end
[textView replaceCharactersInRange:theEnd withString:myString];
theEnd.location+=[myString length]; // the end has moved
[textView scrollRangeToVisible:theEnd];

NeXTSTEP Text objects supported scrollToSel, but that functionality appears

I am attempting to scroll an NSTextView object to the bottom. Here is my
sample code. It doesn't work:

- (IBAction)addLines:(id)sender
{
int i;
float height;

for(i=0;i<100;i++){
NSString *str = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"Here is another line,
#%d\n",i];
int len = [[theText string] length];

[theText
replaceCharactersInRange:NSMakeRange(len,0)
withString:str];
}

if([theText isFlipped]){
NSLog(@"theText is flipped");
}

/* Now scroll to see the last line */
height = [theText frame].size.height;
NSLog(@"Attempting to scroll to 0,%f in frame",height);
if([theText scrollRectToVisible:NSMakeRect(0,height-1,1,1)]){
NSLog(@"Scrolling was performed");
}
}

@end

You'll note that this code verifies that theText is flipped (so the
lower-left is 0,height-1, and not 0,0). But no scrolling happens. Anybody
have a clue?
