Hi folks,

I'm making the world's most boring plug-in to scroll the book details panel in response to a spacebar if there is more then one "page" of book info:

Code:

self.gui.book_details.book_info.moveCursor(QTextCursor.End)

This scrolls to the end, which is okay if there's only two pages of text, but ideally I want to scroll down one page at a time.

I tried

Code:

QTextCursor.NextBlock

, but there are so many blocks (Authors, IDs, Formats, etc.) that it takes too many spacebars to get moving.

Any thoughts? Basically looking for the equivalent of clicking on the scroll bar, or sending a "Page Down" keypress.

Smooth scrolling would be a bonus, but I don't think that's possible.
