Log Console

[Finkman]

Hi there,

I am new to Slint and trying to implement a log console to my application. It shall behave much like a linux console.
My start is to (ab)use a StandardTableView together with a VectorModel. So far, so good.
But... I need it to automatically scroll down, always. Any ideas how to achieve this?
Thanks.

You can do it with a ListView of Text.

For automatic scrolling, you can do a function like

    public function scroll-to-end(){
        listview.viewport-y = - listview.viewport-height + listview.visible-height;
    }

And call this function after adding an element to the list

Is there something similar in a StandardTableView?

[ogoffart]

yes, the viewport-* and visible-* also exist there as the StandardListView inherits the ListView

Oh, that looks like a bug because it it documented like this in https://docs.slint.dev/latest/docs/slint/reference/std-widgets/views/standardtableview/#properties

Same as ListView, and in addition:
