[Mono-winforms-list] TextBox error

[Peter Dennis Bartok]

You should check what the size of the control is. Up your stack is 
UpdateBounds, it's causing the size changed event, and that event causes 
recalculation of scrollbar and document. The viewport and scrollbar numbers 
are just a result out of the new size of the control. I have just tested, 
even with a size of 1x1 it doesn't crash (even though it will tell the 
document code that the viewport is negative). The problem of the original 
poster (on the nabble thing you referenced) looks like was that he was 
running old code, which had a bug with exactly those symptoms, and that has 
since been fixed.

Instead of posting a stacktrace of some code you modified, you should post 
the trace of the original crash you're getting.

Cheers,
  Peter
