What you can do is to: Copy the content of the edit field into a variable. e.g. $copy=GuiCtrlRead($edit1) Add $cmdlineraw to the variable. $copy=$copy & $cmdlineraw (eventually add "& @crlf" here as well, if needed) Clear the editor text, then add the $copy to the edit field. then repeat as much as you like Edit: Try this 1st: You mentioned a truncated text. This can be due to the byte limit of the editor field. You can increase it with : _GUICtrlEdit_SetLimitText($Edit1, 20000000)

The UDF always starts at 0,0 from the top left, you can reduce the read to a lower right bottom but it will save only micro secs. Better read the whole screen. Then you can search for specific area.

WELL HECK

The current Production version. I will not try to maintain compatibility going forward! Jos

just for fun, slightly modified and dressed as functions there are 2 paired functions: _GUICtrlCreateProgressCustom() allows you to create a customized Progressbar with the percentage superimposed. You can choose the colors of the background and of the progress bar. You can also optionally choose at what percentage of progress the color of the progress bar can change to another color. _GUICtrlSetDataProgressCustom() used to set the value of the custom progress bar hope you have fun #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <ProgressConstants.au3> #include <StaticConstants.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> ; ----- #include <WinAPITheme.au3> #Region ### START Koda GUI section ### Form= $Form1 = GUICreate("Progress", 367, 148, 192, 124) ; ----- ; create some example pregress bars Global $ahProgress[6] ; to store bars references $ahProgress[0] = _GUICtrlCreateProgressCustom(20, 10, 255, 25) ; plain progress bar $ahProgress[1] = _GUICtrlCreateProgressCustom(20, 40, 255, 25, -1, 0xFFFFFF, 0x00ff00, 70, 0xff00ff) ; change color when >= 70% $ahProgress[2] = _GUICtrlCreateProgressCustom(20, 70, 255, 25, 0x04, 0xFFFFFF, 0x00ff00, 100, 0xff0000) ; vertical filling effect + red at 100% $ahProgress[3] = _GUICtrlCreateProgressCustom(20, 100, 255, 25, -1, 0xFFFFFF, 0x5555aa, 90, 0xaaaaff) ; change color when >= 90% $ahProgress[4] = _GUICtrlCreateProgressCustom(290, 10, 25, 115, 0x04, 0x7f7f7f, 0x00ffff, 80, 0xaaaa00) ; vertical ; darker background ; some ugly colors $ahProgress[5] = _GUICtrlCreateProgressCustom(330, 10, 25, 115, 0x04, 0x7f7f7f, 0xff0000, 100, 0x00ff00) ; vertical ; darker background ; some ugly colors ; ----- GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) #EndRegion ### END Koda GUI section ### ; update the progess bars For $i = 0 To 100 For $ii = 0 To UBound($ahProgress) - 1 _GUICtrlSetDataProgressCustom($ahProgress[$ii], $i) Next Sleep(100) Next While 1 $nMsg = GUIGetMsg() Switch $nMsg Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Exit EndSwitch WEnd ; #FUNCTION# ==================================================================================================================== ; Name ..........: _GUICtrlCreateProgressCustom ; Description ...: ; Syntax ........: _GUICtrlCreateProgressCustom($Left, $Top, $Width, $Height[, $Style = -1[, $BackColor = 0xFFFFFF[, ; $ForeColor = 0x00FF00[, $Warn = 0[, $WarnColor = 0xFF0000]]]]]) ; Parameters ....: $Left - The left side of the control. ; $Top - The top of the control. ; $Width - The width of the control. ; $Height - The height of the control. ; $Style - [optional] Defines the style of the control.
