Syntax
bool guiEditSetCaretIndex ( element theElement, int indexoffset [, int lineoffset = 0, bool selectText = false, bool noChangeLine = false ] )
Required Arguments
- theElement: The edit box to be changed.
- indexoffset: An integer indicated how many indexes will the cursor move in the box.
Optional Arguments
- lineoffset: An integer indicated how many lines will the cursor move in the box.
- selectText: A bool indicated whether this movement will select text.
- noChangeLine: A bool indicated whether this movement won't jump to another line.
Returns
Returns true if the index was successfully set, false otherwise.
Example
This example makes the text cursor jump to the end of an edit box if the user is holding the Left Control button.
function moveToEndOnClick() if ( getKeyState ( "lctrl" ) == true ) and ( getElementType(source) == "gui-edit" ) then -- if the user is holding down left control local text = guiGetText ( source ) local textLength = string.len ( text ) guiEditSetCaretIndex ( source, textLength ) -- set the caret index. No need to check if the clicked control is actually an edit box as this function won't work on other controls anyway end end addEventHandler ( "onClientGUIClick", getRootElement(), moveToEndOnClick ) -- add an event handler for clicks
