The problem is I need to scroll a custom component I draw myself as a
bit map.

What I do is swap it with a vanilla TextArea if someone wants to cut
and paste, where the scroll bars are under control in AWT. However
that still does not get rid of the unwanted control bars on my custom
component that is stuck using ScrollPane.

I suppose since TextArea can do it, supposedly I could to, building
scrollbars into my custom component the same way TextArea did.
