Updating text list

Hello,

I want to create a updating list for my project that adds new text to an area on the screen(preferably scrollable as there can be many texts). I have read around a lot but I cant seem to figure out how to add new text areas with wildcards to a container. I also want to be able to change the different texts and remove them during runtime. What is the best way to solve this problem?

Please see attached image for a very rudimentary chart off how I want the UI to look.

Regards,

Björn

Hello @BjornLindholm ,

I have previously made a simple project similar to what you are looking for, and I will share it here so you can draw inspiration from it.
The difference is that the new items are added to the bottom of the list, however, the list automatically scrolls down to show the new item.
Keep in mind that you need to place your texts in a custom container to be able to add them dynamically to your scrollable container, and be aware of the memory management due to using new() function in C++.

Good luck,

M
