Text Editor: HOWTO GOTo Next Line

[bvr]

I am making a text editor, mainly for writers. It looks alot like notepad atm until I add to it. But I am unsure how in the text form to make a new line. I could type all day and the line will just keep going horizontal. I want it to make a new line once I get to the end of the form on the right side.

look at the different styles for GUICtrlCreateEdit () like $ES_AUTOVSCROLL and $WS_VSCROLL

[Triton]

probably some kind of loop that counts or subtracts keystrokes or amount of characters entered.

[NELyon]

Set the style to $ES_WANTRETURN.

Like when you have wordwrap turned on in Notepad?

#include <EditConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

$gui = GUICreate('', 200, 200)
GUICtrlCreateEdit('Try this', 0, 0, 200, 200, BitOr($ES_WANTRETURN, $WS_VSCROLL, $ES_AUTOVSCROLL))
GUISetState()

While 1
    $gm = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $gm
        Case -3; $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            ExitLoop
    EndSwitch
WEnd
