david1337, Not that hard to do: #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <ButtonConstants.au3> #include <WinAPI.au3> Global $aButton[9] Mainscript() Func Mainscript() GUICreate

david1337, Perhaps you could use background labels like this: #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <ButtonConstants.au3> #include <WinAPI.au3> Mainscript() Func Mainscript()

dynamitemedia,

How about this: 

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

Ok got the padding between each somewhat the way i wanted...  up and down is working, but can prob be cleaned up.

the one issue i am having is when it gets to the final button and i push "UP"  it wont go up to the next row up and exits or just stops.  any ideas?

here is code here, and again i am sure it can be cleaned up, but it works!  99.9% lol

i wopuld like more padding on the one farthest to the right next to scroll bar 

Make allowance for the scrollbar width like this: 

; Determine button width
$iButton_Dim = Floor(($iDialog_Width - 10 - _WinAPI_GetSystemMetrics(2)) / $iCol_Count)

Ok i got what seems to be working...  its not tossing any errors and seems to be doing what its supposed to...

if someone can look at this section and see if there is a way to clean up... honestly its odd seems no rhyme or reason why its working :(  just kept messing with the numbers.
  

Case $msg = $cDummy_Up
                $hActive = _WinAPI_GetFocus()
                   For $i = 0 To $iCount - 1
                       If $hActive = GUICtrlGetHandle($aButton[$i]) Then
                           $upLabel = $aButton[$i] - $aButton[0]
                           $upButton = $aButton[$i] - $aCount
                           $newUpLabel = $upLabel - 4

                                ConsoleWrite( "Pressed up: " & $newUpLabel & @CRLF)

                           If $upLabel < $iCount then
                              GUICtrlSetState($aButton[$newUpLabel] - 1, $GUI_FOCUS)
                              ConsoleWrite( "Pressed up: " & $newUpLabel & @CRLF)

it paints very odd and flashes

Like only 50 per page?

Just how many images are you thinking of using in total? If you are using hundreds of images, then I am  not at all surprised that the GUI "flashes" as you scroll given the massive amount of redrawing that must be happening.

ViciousXUSMC,

No probs - just pointing it out.

dynamitemedia,

How about using tabs? With 10 or 15 per tab that should allow for a reasonable viewing size.
