edit control - mIRC Discussion Forums

is there any way to force mirc, that when user presses ENTER
that it actualy goes in new line ? -_-

If you have the multi editbox style, you can use $crlf.

/did -a <dname> <id> $crlf

edit "", 1, x y w h, multi

yes i know that, but i am makeing sort of text editor (for now)
inside mirc dialog and i ment when user presses enter key
if it can be forced mirc to automaticaly makes goes to new line ?

You must use both the "return" and "multi" styles.

Ah my apologies, I miss read I thought you wrote how to add a new line.

Try using the styles multi and return together.

edit "", 1, x y w h, multi return

thank you both
too bad help file doesnt describe this additional options

Well, it does show the options but it doesn't go into too much detail on it.

edit "text", id, x y w h, style (right, center, multi, pass, read, return, hsbar, vsbar, autohs, autovs, limit N)

Also, I didn't realise Collective posted above me, so I should really say he beat me to it.

From the help file with mIRC 6.21

Quote:

edit "text", id, x y w h, style (right, center, multi, pass, read, return, hsbar, vsbar, autohs, autovs, limit N)

Where "text" is the default text for a control, id is a number that uniquely identifies a control, x y w h are the position and size of the control, and style consists of a combination of the words in brackets.

Other Styles

In addition to the styles shown in brackets for each type of control, you can also specify these styles:

disable disables the control

hide hides the control

group start of a group

result identifies the control whose value will be used as the return value to the calling script when the user presses the ok button

That doesn't actually explain what any of those control-specific options do, though, which is clearly what he meant.

It would make a nice addition to the help file.
