Can somebody show me how to make the text display in the middle (vertical) of the Gui Edit control

Hi, zeus19,
try something like this:This will do the job!

It's not that, I want the text in the center but vertical way, not horizontal. Like this:

When I start input, the text always state in the middle like in excel

Hi zeus19, welcome.

You question is too vague. There are many ways to put your cursor in the middle row, (if that is what you actually want to do.)

Here is an example. If you want something different, you need to post some code, so we can better undstand what you want.

Is it a single or Multi-line edit control?

Edit: Never mind the question.

Either way, you need to find the height of the text ( for the font+weight you use ) and compute the draw area and then call EM_SETRECT Message in a GoSub Label.

Unfortunately, I do not have the time right now to produce a sample.
Maybe later, If somebody else does not.

Thanks Skan, and could you produce an example? I try to do it myself but it's too hard for me (I'm a newbie in programing). Thanks in advance!
