Title: How to avoid scrolling when printing at last 2 lines?
Post by: FilipeEstima on September 09, 2020, 03:15:17 pm
I need to understand how I can print at last 2 lines of text without making the text to scroll upwards. Whenever I try to print at line 24 or 25, everything is scrolled up. I can't get text to stay at line 24, but at line 25 it's possible - however scroll happens to the other lines.

Code: [Select]
FOR t = 1 TO 22: LOCATE t, 1: PRINT t: NEXT t
SLEEP
LOCATE 23, 1: PRINT 23
SLEEP
LOCATE 24, 1: PRINT 24
SLEEP
LOCATE 25, 1: PRINT 25
SLEEP

Edit: OK, I found out at the VIEW PRINT command explanation at the wiki http://qb64.org/wiki/VIEW_PRINT

Note: The bottom row of the VIEW PRINT port can be used only when located or prints end with semicolons.

Back to coding :)
