I've searched the forums and was surprised to have not seen this question asked before. How do you center text both horizontally and vertically in an inputbox control when the default height is changed?

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <EditConstants.au3>
Dim $msg
Dim $xWIdth  = 500
Dim $xHeight = 500
Dim $iWidth  = 200
Dim $iHeight = 35

GUICreate("My GUI", $xWIdth, $xHeight) ; will create a dialog box that when displayed is centered
GUICtrlCreateInput("", ($xWIdth / 2) - ($iWidth / 2), ($xHeight / 2) - ($iHeight / 2), $iWidth, $iHeight, $ES_CENTER)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) ; will display an empty dialog box
; Run the GUI until the dialog is closed
While 1
$msg = GUIGetMsg()
If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop
WEnd
GUIDelete()

notta,

An input control is an edit control forced to a single line of text. I am not at all surprised that there is no way to force the cursor to another line. ;)
