Have you tried moving the TextIter with something like:https://valadoc.org/gtk+-3.0/Gtk.TextIter.set_line.html

It sounds like you want a TextIter instance for your vscale widget that you can then moveabout the document 
and then scroll to it.
It may be your almost there, just missing the last piece of the puzzle!
