Hi all,
The problem is in : subtract ... from last item of groupcontrols
which the engine won't execute anymore (in this case) if there is only 1 item in groupcontrols.
(sometimes it does, but I couldn't pinpoint the reason yet why it doesn't in this case)
Here is a work around for the "subtract from last item" problem, which i use for the refresh handler in the "control browser",
(### the changes)
(snip)
--if pad is not empty then subtract 1 from the last item of groupcontrols ###
### the change
if pad is not empty then
if the num of items in groupcontrols = 1 then subtract 1 from groupcontrols
else subtract 1 from last item of groupcontrols
end if

Hi WA,
I was out of office and home for three days.
Now tried your workaround for the "subtract from last item" problem with engine 2.6.2A2 (the latest one) on WindowsXP.
Using my test stack with 3 groups - the first two groups containing 2 controls each, the third group is a nested one with 4 controls altogether - the result is that from each group the last control is left totally un-indented.
So your workaround - at least with my stack - seems to be only an approximation of a solution. Maybe there is indeed an additional problem with "subtract from".
My "new indenting routine" - see my post of Nov 26 - sidesteps both a possible "number of layers" or "subtract" problem, as it does not use these parameters and makes use of the "long ID" property instead - that lists all owners of a control.
Regards,
Wilhelm Sanke
