AutoScroll text to bottom of a StyledText component in SWT

[ragz wifer]

Hi,

I'm reading a text file and displaying in the styledtext component of SWT, each time a new line is appended it's not shown, i mean the line is added to the next row but the scrollbar is NOT scrolling to the next row.
How can i make it auto scroll, as a workaround i tried using

styledText.selectAll();

it do auto scroll,but shows the complete selection which is nasty, can someone provide an optimal and better programming practice for this case.

In Swing you can set the caret position to the end of the document. Is that not possible in SWT as well?

JTextComponent#setCaretPosition(int positon) This is inherited by the children

Maneesh this is not swings

anyways
i found absolute answer to my question i.e..,

my attempts 1) styledText.selectAll();//moves the autoscroll down but selects all..--not preferrable 2) styledText.setSelection(styledText.getCharacterCount());//works for me

gratitude to all for the above answers.

Swing is a proper noun.
