Programmatically controlling the scrollview same as touch
-
Does anyone know if it's possible to programmatically control the scrollview's scrolling in the same way you can do with your finger. If possible it could provide some very nice animation effects as well as making it quite easy to make games like a slot machine.

@omz, appears not many questions here for you tonight :) if you have time do you have a comment about this question? In my own stupid way, I think it's a smart question.

I can't think of a good way to do that. You could theoretically use
ui.delay(), and set thecontent_offsetthere somehow, but a) the performance likely wouldn't be very good, and b) you'd need to calculate the deceleration etc. manually, which is somewhat difficult, especially if you'd want to replicate the bouncing effect... -
Fair enough. But I think it's something to watch out while you are playing in your box of goodies. Is a great effect. Could be used in so many ways. I could make a poker machine in about 10mins with that sort of effect. I could also make ui.Views appear and disappear in a variety of ways with that functionality. But, I am sure you are right, doing it with ui.delay would not cut it.
