Solved!
Go to solution

Hello,

i am logging text to a string indicator.

In the example 1000 lines with numbers 0..999.

What can i do that the visible last line of the string-indicator is always the last line i added?

 

Thanks

First off.... switch terminal and property node. Replace "value" read property node with a shift register. You waste tons of performance by the current implementation.

 

As updates are too fast for display, you should "autoscroll to end" after the loop. You can use the property "Scroll Position" in the Text-properties.

This was only an example to demonstrate my question.

How do i know the number of lines to use as input for property Text.ScollPosition?

Thanks

Use a big number and you're done. "+Inf" might be fine…
