Scroll Position in Portal

[frommy]

I have a DB that has many different layouts, all utilising portals to show related tour dates for one tour. Each layout has separate groups of information about each tour date. I am using a scrolling portal on each layout. When I goto related record, the scroll position jumps to the bottom of the viewing window. When I goto last record, then to the portal row (saved as a variable) then the record appears at the top of the window. Is there a way of getting the attribute of the location of the portal record on the screen so the next layout appears scrolled to exactly the same position?

Hi All,

I still have had no joy in fixing this problem. I know there is a way to do it as it happens in iTunes, but I suspect it may be something that needs to invoke an Applescript command to do.

To sum up the problem again - I want to get the attribute of a scrolled portal so that when I navigate away from it, and then back again, or navigate to a related record with a related portal, I can arrive on the screen with the portal in the same scrolled position.

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks

James
