Hello Forums,

How do I render the edit control with a vertical scroll and also make it read-only?

In the helpfile, the syntax for edit control is:
GUICtrlCreateEdit ( "text", left, top [, width [, height [, style [, exStyle]]]] )


I'm guessing that both $WS_VSCROLL and $ES_READONLY should be on the style parameter though I don't know how to combine them.

Here's my script: (Please don't mind the unneccessary "includes".)
AutoIt          
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <StaticConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <string.au3>
#include <array.au3>
#include <EditConstants.au3>
#include <Misc.au3>
$Form = GUICreate('Uhm', 500, 500, 0,0, $WS_BORDER)
GUISetCursor(2)
;GUISetBkColor(0x000000)
$_History = GUICtrlCreateEdit('Lorem ipsum', 8, 8, 400, 400,  $WS_VSCROLL , $ES_READONLY) ; <<<<<<<<
;$_History = GUICtrlCreateEdit('Lorem ipsum', 8, 8, 400, 400,   $ES_READONLY, $WS_VSCROLL)
;$_History = GUICtrlCreateEdit('Lorem ipsum', 8, 8, 400, 400,  $ES_READONLY)
;$_History = GUICtrlCreateEdit('Lorem ipsum', 8, 8, 400, 400,  $WS_VSCROLL)
GUICtrlSetColor(-1, 0xFFFFFF)
GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, 0x000000)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
While 1
$nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
Switch $nMsg
  Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
   Exit
EndSwitch
WEnd


Thanks!

Edit: Added "[SOLVED]" to title.

Hello again,

I just learned a workaround.

AutoIt          
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <StaticConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <string.au3>
#include <array.au3>
#include <EditConstants.au3>
#include <Misc.au3>
$Form = GUICreate('Uhm', 500, 500, 0,0, $WS_BORDER)
GUISetCursor(2)
;GUISetBkColor(0x000000)
#include <GuiEdit.au3>; <<<<<<<<<<<<

$_History = GUICtrlCreateEdit('Lorem ipsum', 8, 8, 400, 400,  $WS_VSCROLL )
_GUICtrlEdit_SetReadOnly($_History, True) ;<<<<<<<<
GUICtrlSetColor(-1, 0xFFFFFF)
GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, 0x000000)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
While 1
$nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
Switch $nMsg

  Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
   Exit
EndSwitch
WEnd


Problem solved. Thanks people!

Use BitOR to combine styles...
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <GUIEdit.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

Example()

Func Example()
    Local $hGUI = GUICreate('Uhm', 500, 500, -1, -1)
    Local $iEdit = GUICtrlCreateEdit('Lorem ipsum', 5, 5, 490, 485, BitOR($ES_READONLY, $WS_VSCROLL)) ; Use BitOR to combine styles.

    GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hGUI)

    While 1
        Switch GUIGetMsg()
            Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
                ExitLoop
        EndSwitch
    WEnd
EndFunc   ;==>Example

Even more correct way is to use $GUI_SS_DEFAULT_EDIT
...
$_History = GUICtrlCreateEdit('Lorem ipsum', 8, 8, 400, 400, BitOr($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_EDIT, $ES_READONLY, $WS_VSCROLL)) ; <<<<<<<<
