GuiMLTextCtrl and GuiScrollCtrl

Everytime I add a new GuiMLTextCtrl inside the GuiScrollCtrl, it scrolls all the way up, so I fix this by using scrolltoBottom(). However it's annoying because it looks like the scroll bar is glitched. Is there a way to keep that scroll bar down?

BTW, this is for chatting.

What do you mean? Don't add a new one each time!

You don't need to re-add it every time you update the text ...

GuiMLTextCtrl.text @= "Whatever..";

What I mean is, this is a chatting system inside a trading system.
Everytime onPlayerChats is called, it creates a new GuiMLTextCtrl inside
a GuiScrollCtrl. But, the scrollbar goes all the way up, which prevents the
players from seeing the most recent chat message without scrolling down
themselves.

Even when you don't add a new one each time it'll still do that since
the text variable is being edited. *Tried it*.

It doesn't go up to the top, it stays where it is if you add something to the text variable.

Just use scrolltobottom() when you add something.

PHP Code:


		
			
//#CLIENTSIDE 

function onPlayerChats() 

{ 

  temp.fontSize = TradeChatList.profile.fontsize; 

  temp.fontType = TradeChatList.profile.fonttype; 

  temp.fontWidth = getTextWidth(temp.fontSize, temp.fontType, NULL, player.chat); 

  if(temp.fontWidth>5850) 

  { 

    TradeChatListText.text @= "<br>Your chat message is too long, please make it shorter."; 

    player.chat = ""; 

  } else { 

    TradeChatListText.text @= "<br>" @ player.account @ ": " @ player.chat; 

    player.chat = ""; 

  } 

  sleep(0.01); 

  TradeChatList.scrolltoBottom(); 

} 



function onCreated() 

{ 

  new GuiScrollCtrl("TradeChatList") 

  { 

    profile = GuiBlueScrollProfile; 

    profile.border = 4; 

    position = { 6 , 233 }; 

    width = 330; 

    height = 60; 

    hScrollBar = "dynamic"; 

    vScrollBar = "alwaysOn"; 

    new GuiMLTextCtrl("TradeChatListText") 

    { 

      profile = GuiBlueMLTextProfile; 

      position = { 4 , 0 }; 

      width = 300; 

      height = 10; 

      text = "Trade Initialized with players: " @ player.account @ " and " @ client.TradePlayer @ "."; 

    } 

  } 

}

It will go up.. then in 0.01 seconds, go down because of scrolltoBottom().

I think to show it is going up ...
