Unable to make TextBox to auto scroll to bottom when it's being updated.

[kevwkev]

The ScrollToEnd() function appears ineffective with TextBox, tested in both code-behind and MVVM utilizing a behavior extension of the TextBox control.

===code-hehind===

1. Use x:name. Subscribed to TextChanged event.
2. Call textbox.ScrollToEnd() in TextChanged event.

===behavior extension for MVVM====

public class ScrollToEndBehavior
{
    public static readonly DependencyProperty OnTextChangedProperty =
                DependencyProperty.RegisterAttached(
                "OnTextChanged",
                typeof(bool),
                typeof(ScrollToEndBehavior),
                new UIPropertyMetadata(false, OnTextChanged)
                );

    public static bool GetOnTextChanged(DependencyObject dependencyObject)
    {
        return (bool)dependencyObject.GetValue(OnTextChangedProperty);
    }

    public static void SetOnTextChanged(DependencyObject dependencyObject, bool value)
    {
        dependencyObject.SetValue(OnTextChangedProperty, value);
    }

    private static void OnTextChanged(DependencyObject dependencyObject, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        var textBox = dependencyObject as TextBox;
        var newValue = (bool)e.NewValue;

        if (textBox == null || (bool)e.OldValue == newValue)
        {
            return;
        }

        TextChangedEventHandler handler = (object sender, TextChangedEventArgs args) =>
            ((TextBox)sender).ScrollToEnd();

        if (newValue)
        {
            textBox.TextChanged += handler;
        }
        else
        {
            textBox.TextChanged -= handler;
        }
    }
}

Hi! Thank you for reporting this. It seems that this is the problem made by the control ScollViewerEx.cs. I'll check that later cuz I'm in the weeds right now. 😕

Help needed! I can't solve this after a few attempts.

这段注释掉就正常了，但是不知道有无副作用
有点难评但是管用

个人感觉是ScrollInfoAdapter.SetVerticalOffset(double offset)执行动效的时候寄了

（把ScrollViewerEx改成ScrollViewer也能正常滚到末尾

[NotYoojun]

把 ScrollViewerEx 改成 ScrollViewer 的方案是不可取的。ScrollViewerEx 存在的意义就是修复和优化 WPF 自带的垃圾滚动逻辑。我们解决这个问题只能从 ScrollViewer 本身下手。

I don't know how far your testing did go, I just realized both functions ScrollToHome and ScrollToEnd do work a single time after the application is started. Then I found out they work again after the contrary function is called, meaning a not working ScrollToEnd function does work again after ScrollToHome is called once.

In conclusion there is at least a workaround for now, just call ScrollToHome everytime before you call ScrollToEnd. It works in my test project, within a slower program or an a slower machine, adding texts fast, I would imaging this approach to be problemtic though.
