Horizontal Scrolling

The following SCROLL command scrolls the window overlooking an output in the output library or a panel layout in a horizontal direction. You cannot use options with column numbers with output members.

This command has the following format:

         [      [CURSOR       ]]
         [RIGHT [FRAME        ]]
[SCROLL] [LEFT  [MAX          ]]
         [      [nnn [COLUMNS]]]
         [COLUMN nnn           ]

The keyword SCROLL is optional if you specify at least one other argument.
