Autoscrolling in an edit ***SOLVED***

[knight666]

I've looked all over the board, and I can't seem to find a proper way to autoscroll to the bottom of an edit box.

Basically my program adds a lot of lines to an edit box, and you can only scroll down when it's done doing that.

So my question: is there a way to autoscroll to the bottom of it?

I could ofcourse just keep sending {END}'s, but it's not a very elegant solution plus the window will need focus for it to work.

Thanks in advance!

If I use the following line to add lines to my editbox it seems to autoscroll without any problems.

GUICtrlSetData($ctrl, "blah blah" & @CRLF, True)

Edit : typo

Hey, thanks man, that did the trick.

I was doing something really dumb by the way:

Func AddMsg($msg)
 GUICtrlSetData($txtLoading, GUICtrlRead($ØY[ÊH   [ÈÕT  [È ][ÝÎ][ÝÈ    [ÈRS   [È ][ÝÎ][ÝÈ    ײ4T2fײgV÷C²ÒgV÷C²fײb33c¶×6rfײ5$Äb¤VæDgVæ

So you've not only fixed my problem, you've also sped things up considerably. (b ")b

_GUICtrlEditLineScroll

Thanks for letting me know its proper usage, where I could find the function and if it actually does what I want it to.

You can find it in AutoIt v3 help file, under User Defined Functions and GuiEdit Management. Edited June 24, 2007 by poisonkiller
