Okie... Is there a way I can edited the text window so that it automatically scrolls down to the bottom if new text is entered?

No.
|
actually it doesnt...it won't auto scroll to the bottom if the user moved the slider up to read previous messages...
auto scrolling is really annoying when a user wants to do such:) |
I know that, but it's easy enough for the player to move the scrollbar back down to the bottom; and from then on, it scrolls correctly with the text.
|
that was kind of my point...the user will decide if he wants to view new messages coming in... its annoying when the program decides for you... *cough* msn messenger */cough*
|
Um... the user DOES decide. It's their scrollbar, after all. =P And if it's not at the bottom, then it helpfully stays in the same position so you don't have to continually scroll upwards to counter new text.
|
Sorry, I misunderstood what you were saying. And yes, I know that it doesn't scroll down automatically unless you're already at the bottom. I even said that. =)
So now that we know we were entirely at cross-purposes, this subthread can have the death it deserves. =P |
Hehe. I would be on Chatters, except I'm at a computer that doesn't have BYOND. I could connect via telnet, except I don't know the address and port number of the server. =( Oh well, I think I'll survive!
