Assuming WinForms, you can try pinvoking:
public class MyRTF: RichTextBox {
private const int WM_HSCROLL = 0x114;
private const int WM_VSCROLL = 0x115;
private const int WM_MOUSEWHEEL = 0x20A;
protected override void WndProc(ref Message m) {
base.WndProc(ref m);
if (m.Msg == WM_VSCROLL || m.Msg == WM_HSCROLL || m.Msg == WM_MOUSEWHEEL) {
// scrolling...
}
}
}
