Thanks for reminding me that everything talked about on this mailing list never
reaches 4D Engineering. I keep forgetting that this is just a place for people
to help each other. It’s not the place to offer improvements to the 4D product
that have any chance of actually producing a change.
And of course it is not your job to take information you read hear and pass it
on to 4D Engineering because you think it is a good idea and would improve the
4D product. That’s the job of us 4D developers to do that. And the only chance
of that happening is to create a feature request on 4D Forms.
I keep forgetting that you are participating on this mailing list to help the
members with their problems. You are not a conduit to pass on information and
topics discussed here to 4D Engineering.
Makes me think of that saying “what happens in Las Vegas stays in Las Vegas”.
What is said on the iNUG stays on the iNUG and goes no further.
I won’t be making a feature request asking for a change regarding this issue. I
really don’t know what to do to fix/resolve this problem. I was just offering
ideas.
