I have a Visor Prism with Palm OS 3.5.2. Using AN 5.0, when I look at the "split day view", if I have more todos (or more meetings) than the half-screen can fit, a scroll bar appears on the right, as expected. However, the shaded part of the scroll bar is not proportional to the amount of items that can be displayed in the screen. For example, if I have 10 single-line todos, since only 6 lines can be displayed, the scroll bar shade should be about 60% of the total bar. However, it looks like it's about 25% of the total bar.

Yiparaki is 100% right. The scroll bars in AN4.5x through AN5.1 have shown odd behavior. Since I would have guessed the bars relied on system APIs, I can only assume Iambic is writing their own. I'd love to see this basic feature of the Palm OS GUI implemented correctly.
