JohnDool Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Hello, I'm just starting with autoit. I have a question. How can I show a lot of text in a window, as information? By Creating a label you can't show much informatie. But that is what I want! How can I show the text in a window? Can I make a text file, and displayed the text of the file in a window? I hope somebody can help me. Thanks a lot. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpookMeister Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 (edited) maybe... GUICtrlCreateInput ? [edit] scratch that.. I meant GUICtrlCreateEdit as azure pointed out. Edited December 29, 2008 by SpookMeister [u]Helpful tips:[/u]If you want better answers to your questions, take the time to reproduce your issue in a small "stand alone" example script whenever possible. Also, make sure you tell us 1) what you tried, 2) what you expected to happen, and 3) what happened instead.[u]Useful links:[/u]BrettF's update to LxP's "How to AutoIt" pdfValuater's Autoit 1-2-3 Download page for the latest versions of Autoit and SciTE[quote]<glyph> For example - if you came in here asking "how do I use a jackhammer" we might ask "why do you need to use a jackhammer"<glyph> If the answer to the latter question is "to knock my grandmother's head off to let out the evil spirits that gave her cancer", then maybe the problem is actually unrelated to jackhammers[/quote] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FireFox Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 @JohnDool You can do it with label, just resize it ... $win=GuiCreate("GUI",500,500) $lbl=GuiCtrlCreateLabel("",5,5,490,490) GuiSetState(@SW_SHOW,$win) GuiCtrlSetData($lbl,"insert here your big text") Or use edit : #Include <EditConstants.au3> GuiCreate("GUI",500,500) $edit=GuiCtrlCreateEdit("",5,5,490,490,$ES_MULTILINE+$ES_AUTOVSCROLL+$ES_AUTOHSCROLL) GuiSetState() GuiCtrlSetData($edit,"put here your big text") Cheers, FireFox.

Thanks for answer! I tried and I understand how it work. But I'm very unpleasant... Because my text add punctuation marks and calculations. How can I show that in a window or GUI? Is that possible? Or have I to program with HTML or PHP? Is it possible to show a textfile with al the punctuation marks and calculations in a GUI? My second question: wich control can I make formulas? Thanks for helping me. Kind regards, John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
