..or give me universal method.

Not sure, what you want to do (what about a code example?), but if you only like to ensure, that the selected line is visible, this line will help you:

If I understand what you want, and you need a cross-platform solution, you can use creatively use SetGadgetState() to select an item to move the visible portion of the item list.
Selecting an item moves the ListIconGadget list of items so as the selected item is visible.
Then you can select another item farther up the list or deselect the item altogether with SetGadgetState(#MyListIcon, -1).
If you play around with it a bit you'll get the feel for the behavior.

My program works just fine unde Wine (Linux). I didn't yet compile it for Lnx.
I will try this also.

SetGadgetState(#ListIcon_Chat,CountGadgetItems(#ListIcon_Chat)-1)

It works I will test it more...

Sendmessage solution is only for Windows?

I fear, it is (never was keen enough to try programming on linux/mac)

I prefer Linux, but there is no market to sell your program. (Mac is also only few percent in my country)
It is nice to have Mac and Linux as compile option. I sell Lnx versions half price (but no go
If test go well i will buy pb; I need simple GUI for few project in near future.
