I have a similar issue where I want to be able to select text in a field with
traversalOn set to false. I can select the text, but I cannot copy it. It's as
though the engine cannot discern there is a selection.

To clarify:
For a locked field with autohilite and traversalOn both true, the “built in”
auto scrolling works the same as with an unlocked field. I’m looking for a way
to script this kind of auto scrolling with autohilite and traversalOn both
false.

Is this an issue with “Focus with Keyboard” not checked or traversalOn not true?

Hi.
Not sure, I guess, what you are asking.
I make an ordinary field, fill it with lots of dross, and lock the text. If
I click on any visible line and then drag the mouse around, the text below
the cursor, whether above or below the original clickLine, are all hilited.
