actually it's documented http://doc.4d.com/4Dv15/4D/15.6/Field-and-variable-objects.300-3836755.en.html
Note: Text variables and fields in forms are designed to display contents of a "reasonable" size. Beyond several tens of thousands of characters (depending on the system), only part of the text will be accessible in the form. I recall its 100,000 on windows, 383,046 on macOS. this is limitation imposed by the system. text editors general do optimisation by lazy loading. when you "copy all", you copy all including the text that is not rendered on the window. same with paste. you could say that a text input area is a window to the text that resides in memory. > 2018/08/24 11:15、rooftop99--- via 4D_Tech <[email protected]>のメール: > > Is this normal or some residue of the applications old pre-unicode days?
