Need for a scrollable container
Now a days many controls are present in a single view making the visibility of the control an point to argue on due to the limited screen dimensions. One way to overcome the problem is by placing all the controls over the container and when you want to bring the particular control in the view you can just move all the controls by the offset value upwards and downwards But doing this is tedious and might be difficult to maintain in the future and not a good logic . The other way around is to use the property of CCoeControl to move entirely up and down along with its contents( moving the entire container up and down ) instead of moving all the controls. Below is the way to do it.
Note :- for simplicity functions related to scrolling are only implemented.
