Author Topic: GUItextlist multi-line support?  (Read 1196 times)

alright so let me describe the issue i'm currently presented with

i have a GUItextlist as a child of a GUIscrolllist or whatever it's called.  this worked wonderfully for keeping track of records and etc, however i would like to have multiple lines in one record, is this possible?

if not is there any way I could create a 'listbox' of rtf controls?

and don't suggest using columns, the information being displayed is too long to be in different columns, it needs to be multiline

So your asking if it's possible to have a line in the list that has more than one line of text?

basically yes

basically yes
Sadly there is no support for this. I tried \n and NL. You'll just need to do multiple rows or figure something else out.

i thought so, i have experimented with the newline before as well.

i believe i'll simply have a list of the different records to the side, and when you select one it opens it in an rtf control in order to display it.

a bit less user friendly but i see no workaround

Have you tried <br>? I doubt it would work, but it is worth a try.

<br> does nothing in a text list ctrl.

You should try using a GuiMLTextCtrl instead.
