Answer 1

if you look at the source code you can see the default option

 var defaults = {
    //Add these lines in your plugin source code
      minHeight:'auto',
      minWidth:'auto'


    width : 'auto',


    height : '250px',


    size : '7px',

    color: '#000',


    position : 'right',


    distance : '1px',


    start : 'top',


    opacity : .4,


    alwaysVisible : false,


    disableFadeOut : false,


    railVisible : false,


    railColor : '#333',


    railOpacity : .2,


    railDraggable : true,


    railClass : 'slimScrollRail',


    barClass : 'slimScrollBar',


    wrapperClass : 'slimScrollDiv',


    allowPageScroll : false,


    wheelStep : 20,


    touchScrollStep : 200,


    borderRadius: '7px',

    railBorderRadius : '7px'
  };

i think you cannot add min-height and min-width through the plugin there are two options

• study the source code and then add extra style attribute

• or/ try to use css

add the commented lines in your source line (164 and 176) var wrapper = $(divS) .addClass(o.wrapperClass) .css({ position: 'relative', overflow: 'hidden', width: o.width, height: o.height /* min-heigth:o.minHeight, min-width:o.minWidth */ });

        // update style for the div
        me.css({
          overflow: 'hidden',
          width: o.width,
          height: o.height,
          /*
          min-heigth:o.minHeight,
          min-width:o.minWidth
          */
        });

Answer 2

Your question is hard to understand but I think what you are saying is to make the textarea only scrollable when it exceeds the max-height you want to set? You can not do that by default but you can change some of the source code.

height: o.height and change to 'max-height': o.height (line: 156 and 163)
