Moving Scrool Bar

[Flisker]

Hello,

I spend already about 5hours on my problem and can't solve it so I would like to ask anybody for help please.

My problem is that I don't know how to move scrool bar with every new line. I am adding more and more text into gui but when I get over last line I can see it's not moving scrool bar on last line itself(as I would expected).

This is image of script and gui to help understand my problem : Image

Any help would be great

p.s. Sorry for my english.

Welcome to AutoIt Forum. All you need is $WS_VSCROLL style for your edit control. Hope this will help you:

$MAIN = GUICreate("Example",120,605)
$EDIT = GUICtrlCreateEdit("",5,5,110,595,0x00200000) ; Vertical Scroll: $WS_VSCROLL = 0x00200000
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW,$MAIN)

For $INDEX = 1 To 50
    GUICtrlSetData($EDIT,"Text" & $INDEX & @CRLF,1)
    Sleep(100)
Next

While True
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case -3
            Exit
    EndSwitch
    Sleep(10)
WEnd

WOW , tyvm for super fast response it's working

But now I got another problem -> can't get over 3109 lines , script just stops after this line even if for cycle is set from 1 -> 5000. Is this gui window limited by maximal number of characters it is able to show ?

According with Microsoft Support

A multiline edit control is also subject to the following limitations:

* The maximum number of characters in a single line is 1024.

* The maximum width of a line is 30,000 pixels.

* The maximum number of lines is approximately 16,350.

EDIT:

But you can use this and will work fine for 5000 lines:

#Include <GuiEdit.au3>

$MAIN = GUICreate("Example",120,605)
$EDIT = _GUICtrlEdit_Create($MAIN,"",5,5,110,595,BitOR(0x0004,0x00200000)) ; Vertical Scroll: $WS_VSCROLL = 0x00200000
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW,$MAIN)

For $INDEX = 1 To 5000
    _GUICtrlEdit_AppendText($EDIT,"Text" & $INDEX & @CRLF)
Next

While True
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case -3
            _GUICtrlEdit_Destroy($EDIT)
            Exit
    EndSwitch
    Sleep(10)
WEnd

[Andreik]

All there functions are defined in GuiEdit.au3 [see first line in script].
