Forums Scripts & Popups Dialog?

Need some help on how to open a txt inside a dialog so that it displays the content of the txt inside the dialog itself.

Any ideas?

/loadbuf can do that.

Can i be so lucky as to get an example? Not havin any luck.

Assuming:

Dialog name: dlgNotepad
Editbox ID: 1
Filename = versions.txt

/filter -fo dlgNotepad 1 versions.txt
/loadbuf -o dlgNotepad 1 versions.txt

Thanks, it works..but it displays all in one line, even with -p.

Dialog Test {
Title "Test"
Size -1 -1 200 200
Edit "" 1, 5 5 190 190
}
on *:dialog:Test:init:*:{
filter -fo test.txt Test 1
loadbuf -o Test 1 test.txt
}
Inside test.txt i have..
One
Two
Three
Four
Five
..but it displays them in the Editbox like so..
One [] Two [] Three []..etc
[]=a box indicating a return i guess.

Edit:

Just tried changing the Edit "" to a List.
It works better this way, displays them properly, but now it displays thus..
One
Two
Three
Four
Five
One
Two
Three..etc etc

Any way to set it to only load it once?

Edit:

N/m, got it. Thanks for helping out a newbie.

You could still load the file to an edit control if you had added these properties:

• Edit "" 1, 5 5 190 190, multi return

But it's better to stick to a list because its buffer limit (i.e. the amount of data it can show) is more tolerant.
