Title: Question to LOCATE
Post by: Kernelpanic on October 21, 2020, 06:25:42 pm
Is it possible with "Locate" so, or similar, to determine the new position of the cursor?
LOCATE CSRLIN + 2, POS (0)
LOCATE (CSRLIN + 2), POS (0)

Or is that basically not possible?

Easiest answer to these type of questions is to just try them out and see for yourself.  Learn by doing and experimenting.  ;D

Code: QB64: [Select]
  1. LOCATE (CSRLIN + 8), POS(0) + 15
  2. PRINT "When I first started QB64, "
  3. LOCATE (CSRLIN + 2), POS(0) + 15
  4. PRINT "it took me a long time to locate CRSLIN and POS(0)."
  5. LOCATE (CSRLIN + 2), POS(0) + 15
  6. PRINT "Then, someone told me about: https://www.qb64.org/wiki "

Thank you! ;)  Now it works, but "Locate (CSRLIN + 2, Pos (0)" didn't work for me. Ok.

Now I have a new problem. . .I am making a new thread.
