When clicking on the vertical scrollbar below the scroll box (or "thumb"), FASMW scrolls down a full screen page. If less than a full screen page is left, FASMW should display that last page entirely. However, that does not happen. Instead, if less than a full screen page is left, FASMW starts to scroll down line-by-line.

Apart from being unexpected, that behavior is also a little annoying with bigger monitors, because scrolling down the last 30-40 lines may consume a lot of time.

Fortunately there appears to be a simple fix, it requires changing one single line in SOURCE\IDE\FASMW\ASMEDIT.INC:

Code:

    vscroll_pagedown:
        mov     esi,[window_line]
        mov     eax,[sc.nPos]
        add     eax,[sc.nPage]
        mov     ecx,[sc.nMax]
        sub     ecx,eax
        inc     ecx
        cmp     ecx,[sc.nPage]
;        jbe     scroll_down            ; original code
        jbe     scrolling_down          ; new code
        mov     ecx,[sc.nPage]
    scrolling_down:

I also never noticed this bug myself, for the same reason as Madis. Wink

Will be fixed in next release.
