Lol. Happy to provide a distraction... -----Original Message----- From: ProfoxTech <profoxtech-boun...@leafe.com> On Behalf Of Frank Cazabon Sent: Thursday, June 1, 2023 2:29 PM To: profoxt...@leafe.com Subject: Re: Fun with label printers
Yes, you are correct, they should work like that, it's just the apps I've worked on have all been one at a time. Don't waste time trying my suggestion. Maybe, if you de-normalise your data to have one row with the data for the 2 labels? That is, instead of row 1: label1 row 2: label2 row 3: label3 row 4: label4 you have: row 1: label1, label2 row 2: label3, label4 just another WAG while I distract myself from some Flutter/Dart training I'm doing :) Frank.
