Text box scrolling

[MoonDemon]

How do I make my text box automatically scroll down when it's text is changed? I am making a chat app and I have finally got it to work but when the amount of text exceeds the size of the text box the scroll bar is activated but it stays up the top. Is there code to bring it down? - Thanks for your help

Yeah, in a roundabout sort of way.

Use

text1.SelectionStart = text1.text.length
text1.SelectionLength = 0

Something like that, I haven't got the energy to try it myself. See if it works. If you get an error on the first line try subtracting 1 from the length

TextBox1.SelectionStart = TextBox1.TextLength
TextBox1.ScrollToCaret()

maybe you can cut off the text that goes past the top line.. so you can avoid the scroll bars and not have to scroll~
