GUI - a + button adds another textbox in its place

[RyanAyton]

Hello

How would you go about having a + button add a new textbox in to the gui?

The reason for this is because I want the end user to be able to put in additional field(s) if it's needed.

Also say if this is possible, could it also automatically extend the gui window - or scrollable - in case the end user needs to add in a lot?

Many Thanks

I assume by text box you mean an edit box. Here's a basic approach to it. Making it scrollable is more advanced. There have been various threads about it on the forum that you should be able to find.

Code: Select all

EditCount := 1
gosub, BuildGui
return

GuiClose:
ExitApp

AddEdit:
	EditCount++
	gosub, BuildGui
return

BuildGui:
	Gui, Destroy
	loop, %EditCount%
		Gui, Add, Edit, w200 vEdit%A_Index%
	Gui, Add, Button, gAddEdit w200, +
	Gui, Show
return
