Scrolling to the bottom of.. Anything made by Autoit

[avery]

I am not sure if this a GUI specific issue or not and therefor not sure which forum to post in. If I posted this in the wrong place I apologize and hope an admin can remove my mistake.

Does anyone know how to make an Edit control scroll to the bottom on new text. I tried all the combination I could think of documented here: http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/a...x/GUIStyles.htm.

Currently the only way I can keep the latest status message at top and viewable to the user is to reverse the lines I write so the new ones stay at the top. This looks pretty silly though. Can someone please help me.

$status = GUICtrlCreateEdit("", 8, 104, 609, 169, BitOR($ES_AUTOVSCROLL, $ES_READONLY, $ES_WANTRETURN, $WS_VSCROLL))

...

Func _s($line)
    $_ln += 1
    $set_status = GUICtrlRead($status)
    $line = $line & @CRLF & $set_status
    ;$line = $set_status & $line
    GUICtrlSetData($status, "[" & $_ln & "] " & $time & $line & @CRLF)
EndFunc   ;==>_s

Example of my reverse output. I'd like to make the window scroll down on new data and the numbers to be 1, 2, 3, etc not 6, 5, 4, 3 etc.

Please read the first sentence before you accuse me of double posting. I wasn't sure where it was best suited and apologized and asked for it to be removed. Thanks for the help.

First off.

It is a double post. You proved that by mostly everything. What you did also was bump your post by alternate means (creating a new thread). Rules say bump once every 24 hours, not before. it took you what, 5 minutes to become impatient for an answer?

If you post in the wrong place it will either get moved, locked or your question answered, so your odds are good.

Anyways good luck with your problem in your original thread.

Cheers,

Brett

Folks,

I made the posts just minutes apart via a cut-n-paste and asked for one to be deleted if it was in the wrong place -- now it's a double-bump-post? I can't beleive how tough the crowd is I've got more advise on how to make a post then help with the original question/issue. I thought it was a fairly well written plea for someones expert AutoIt advice from someone who has been in the community awhile. It's ok I've learned my lesson and won't be making anymore posts in multiple categories. I'll just pick one and hope it's in the right place.

thanks,

avery
