Extjs checkbox and textarea - how to disable the checkbox on scroll behavior of the textarea?

Question

I have a text area that displays some text with a vertical scroll bar on the right and a checkbox below the text area as in the code below:

xtype: 'container',
items: [{
    {
        xtype: 'textarea',
        scrollY: true,
        screenX: true,
        height: 130,
        minHeight: 80,
        top: 10,
        width: 650,
        id: 'testDisplay',
        name: 'testDisplay',
        itemId: 'testDisplay',
        bind: {
            value: some text
        },
        listeners: {
            afterrender: function(cmp) {
                textAreaComp = me.down('#testDisplay');
                textAreaComp.setValue(someInfo);
            }
        },
    }, 
    {
        xtype: 'checkboxfield',
        name: 'testDisplayChkbox',
        id: 'testDisplayChkbox',
        itemId: 'testDisplayChkbox',
        checked: false,
        boxLabel: someLabel,
    }
}]

I am looking to disable the checkbox at first and then enable it after scrolling to the end of the text area located above the checkbox. How can this be achieved?

There is no built-in listener in ExtJS for this. You have to lookup the textarea in DOM and attach an onscroll event. Then you can check whether scrolling reached the bottom and enable your checkbox. Try the following code and also look at this fiddle:

Ext.create({
    renderTo: Ext.getBody(),
    xtype: 'container',
    items: [{
        xtype: 'textareafield',
        value: 'Sed ut perspiciatis unde omnis iste natus error sit voluptatem accusantium doloremque laudantium, totam rem aperiam, eaque ipsa quae ab illo inventore veritatis et quasi architecto beatae vitae dicta sunt explicabo.

        afterRender: function () {
            // get checkbox
            const myCheckBox = this.up('container').getComponent('myCheckBox');
            // add onscroll listener to textarea
            this.el.down('textarea').dom.onscroll = function () {
                // check if scrolling reached bottom
                if (this.scrollHeight <= (this.scrollTop + this.offsetHeight)) {
                    myCheckBox.setDisabled(false);
                }
            };
        }
    }, {
        xtype: 'checkboxfield',
        itemId: 'myCheckBox',
        label: 'Lorem ipsum',
        checked: false,
        disabled: true
    }]
});
