I wanted to make a countdown timer without queueing the countdown message to the next line but the previous data is removed after using GUICtrlSetData. Any thoughts on how to display the previous data/message? Here is an example: #include <EditConstants.au3> #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> Global $_main = GUICreate("", 501, 313, -1, -1) Global $g_idMemo = GUICtrlCreateEdit("", 2, 2, 496, 274, $ES_AUTOVSCROLL + $ES_READONLY + $WS_VSCROLL) GUICtrlSetData(-1, "") GUICtrlSetFont($g_idMemo, 9, 400, 0, "Courier New") GUICtrlSendMsg($g_idMemo, $EM_SETREADONLY, True, 0) GUICtrlSetBkColor($g_idMemo, 0xFFFFFF) GUICtrlSetCursor($g_idMemo, -1) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) HotKeySet('{esc}', "_close") Func _close() Exit EndFunc ;==>_close Func MemoWrite($sMessage = "") GUICtrlSetData($g_idMemo, $sMessage & @CRLF, 1) EndFunc ;==>MemoWrite MemoWrite("test message 1") Sleep(1000) MemoWrite("test message 2") Sleep(1000) MemoWrite("test message 3") Sleep(1000) For $i = 5 to 0 Step -1 GUICtrlSetData($g_idMemo, "Program will exit in "&$i&" seconds...") Sleep(1000) Next While 1 $nMsg = GUIGetMsg() Switch $nMsg Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Exit EndSwitch WEnd
