Dear Fellow Palm Programmers:
Here is a challenging question. I would prefer a solution using the published
SDK w/o using private functions in Field.c. I could [did] solve the problem
with Field.c but that is risky [and complicated] since Field.c may change in
future OSs.
For simplicity, let's talk about Memo Pad. I define a ScreenLine as the
collection of characters which show up as one line on the screen. Of course,
this depends on the display font.
Is there a way to determine how many ScreenLines will a given record take up?
Is there a way to determine the insertion point position of the beginning
of the 25th ScreenLines from the current insertion point [without moving
there]?
Thanks!
