Disabling question

[lordicast]

Hello people.

Is there a way to disable a control but keep the scroll bar?

$Test = GuiCtrlCreateEdit('',200,200)
GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_DISABLE)
;Works However I can not use the scroll bars to skim the text!?

So I want them to see the text and scroll down and see all of it but not input I guess is where im going with this.

thanks in advance

Use $ES_READONLY and GUICtrlSetBkColor() / GUICtrlSetColor().

The $ES_READONLY style for GuiCtrlCreateEdit does not fit the needs for this? I don't know if that style can be toggled, maybe that's a requirement here..

Disable really disables the cntrol. I think the Style $ES_READONLY should do what you want.

$edit = GUICtrlCreateEdit("", 10, 10, 380, 280, BitOr($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_EDIT, $ES_READONLY))

Wow thank you! I feel dumb now

EDIT:

FTR , I went with BitOR($WS_VSCROLL,$ES_READONLY)
