Java SE (Java Platform, Standard Edition)

I cannot figure this out for the life of me. I would like to CHANGE the bounds for the autoscroll on a JTextPane that resides inside a JScrollPane when the user selects text and moves the mouse outside of the "autoscroll bounds".

The normal bounds for scrolling down a JTextPane (when inside a JScrollPane) are usually the bounds of the JTextPane itself. (You can verify this with my example by selecting some text with the mouse button held down, and moving your cursor outside the bottom of the window). I would like to move the bottom bounds up higher into the window (indicated by the black line that resides on the glasspane).

I have provided this example to use as a starting point. It doesn't do anything of use right now. I have tried about 20 things, but things have gotten so messed up, and the level of internal code that I started to mess around with got way over my head... so I'm just going to post this with a clean start, and hopefully we can move in a positive direction. I will relay my findings about a paticular route if we start moving down one i've already failed at.

Thanks for you time.
