Hi.

When you say "mouse Cursor" do you really mean the cursor? Or do you mean the thumbPosition of the field?

A scrolling field should never change its scroll property without direct action. This can be setting the scroll property or manually moving the scrollbar.

Please describe in detail how you modify the field contents, what actually happens to that field, and what the cursor does when it happens.
