Need an autoscrolling Edit Control

[boaty]

So I'm still working on my IM program, and actually it's all done. I just need to add some cosmetic niceties. Anyways, I constantly update the text of an Edit control like this:

GUICtrlSetData($EditRecv, GUICtrlRead($EditRecv) & @CRLF & $SendText)

The problem is, whenever I do so, the edit control defaults to all the way to the top. I'd like it to default at the bottom...

Anyway around this?

Function _GUICtrlEdit_Scroll_GUICtrlEdit_Scroll($hWnd, $iDirection)

$hWnd = your edit control.

$iDirection =

$SB_LINEDOWN - Scrolls down one line

$SB_LINEUP - Scrolls up one line

$SB_PAGEDOWN - Scrolls down one page

$SB_PAGEUP - Scrolls up one page

$SB_SCROLLCARET - Scrolls the caret into view

Include Function _GUICtrlEdit_ScrollScrollBarConstants.au3

Best bet for handling situations like this in the future, check out the help file and look for all functions dealing with the control you're using. Most likely, someone has thought of exactly what you need and has provided a nice, clean way for you to get at it.

Gah, thank you so much. I always check the AutoIt3, but never just the AutoIt help. I really don't know why it's seperated...finding information is just that much harder...but anyways..thanks so much.

or... you could also use _GuiCtrlEdit_AppendText ()
