Yea, that example works too for me, I think the problem is somewhere else. private function setLogVPosition():void { txtLog.vPosition = txtLog.maxVPosition; }
If I trigger this function on a button click, it works <mx:Button click="setLogVPosition()" x="29" y="105" label="Button"/> But I want to use it in a function that changes the txtLog's text, like this: private function socketDataHandler(event:ProgressEvent):void { txtLog.text += "\n" + oSocket.readUTFBytes(oSocket.bytesAvailable); setLogVPosition(); } And this one doesn't work. It sets the text with the correct data, but it can't set the VPosition. It seems it has to be wired to some clientside event, and can't be triggered from code. Is that correct? -----Original Message----- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Manish Jethani Sent: dinsdag 7 februari 2006 19:29 To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Flex 2.0 beta TextArea question On 2/7/06, Jonas Windey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > How would I set the scrollPosition of a textarea to it's maximum position?
