You migh want to have a look in ap/xp/ap_TopRuler.cpp,
AP_TopRuler::scrollRuler.

To help you understand what's happening.
Lets say you added a character that made the view/ruler scroll, call
stack becomes:

  FV_View::_ensureThatInsertionPointIsOnScreen
  FV_View::cmdScroll
  AV_View::sendHorizontalScrollEvent
  AP_TopRuler::_scrollFuncX
  AP_TopRuler::scrollRuler
  GR_<OS>Graphics::scroll(/* 6 UT_sint args */)

Looking into QNX Graphics, I notice this member function is not
implemented. I think we found out why Photon doesn't scroll the ruler.
