Whenever I add a text to an edit box (it has a 10 line size, multiline and VScroll) the scroll bar focuses itself to the top of the box.. is there any way to force the bar down?

-Paril

I tried this as well, as taken from MSDN help and such:

Window1.SendControlMessage ("Test", EM_SCROLL, SB_PAGEDOWN);

But, it said EM_SCROLL and SB_PAGEDOWN are undefined...

-Paril

Yes, you will need to define those in your JS. I suggest you to make them public (put them over all other code):

code:

---

var EM_SCROLL = 181;
var SB_PAGEDOWN = 3;

---

code:

---

Window1.SendControlMessage("Test", EM_SCROLL, SB_PAGEDOWN, 0);
);

---

Oh, lawl, I see.

Yeah, I know, I work with C, I just didn't decide to go looking in my library files.. thanks.

EDIT: Perfect! Exactly what I needed.
While I'm here, is there a way to hide buttons from the script?

-Paril

Please check Edit2 in my other post, which I just did add. It's rather important to get it to work.

Yes, I figured that since MSDN told me to set it to zero either way. Read my edit above, please.

Use the ShowWindow API with SW_SHOW and SW_HIDE.

Not the whole window, I mean a single control.. unless that's what you mean?
Example please?

-Paril

Get the handle of the control and send the SW_HIDE message to the control instead of the window. That should work.

I still don't really understand how to 'send the message', I tried this:

Window1.SendControlMessage ("Btnid1", SW_HIDE, 0, 0);

but it did nothing.. I don't know the args, if any..

EDIT: Oh, wait, do you mean from a seperate C DLL?

EDIT TWO: I see now that ShowWindow is a JScript func.. but this doesn't work:

        var handle = Window.Handle;
       
        ShowWindow (handle, SW_HIDE);

I do have SW_HIDE defined and the Window as well...

-Paril

to call an API function, use Interop::Call. Since ShowWindow is in User32.dll, use this:

Interop.Call("User32.dll", "ShowWindow", handle, SW_HIDE);

Ooh! That makes more sense.. thanks

EDIT: Perfect, exactly what I need. Thanks.

code:

var Wnd = MsgPlus.CreateWnd("Windows.xml", "MyWindow"); //Just to tell you that Wnd is a PlusWnd object, I think you already created the window before
var handle = Wnd.GetControlHandle("Btn1"); //The magic part: returns the handle of the control, since controls are in fact child windows in the window.
Interop.Call("User32.dll", "ShowWindow", handle, SW_HIDE); //Make sure SW_HIDE = 0

---

That's exactly what I did.
