I've long thought that this is a design flaw in the QCC. There should be two fields, one to specify whether the entry is a bug or an enhancement request and a separate one to define the severity. That way, a request such as this could go in as a critical enhancement whereas now there is no way to

This is lcStackBrowser, it has to open stacks and allow them to do whatever they do. This happens with any stack that I open, it's not just one particular stack. I even created a new main stack with no objects, no scripts of any sort, then opened it and got the same problem. And here's more weir

I think in this case where it's easy to show that its virtually impossible to design a satisfactory UI for both devices then it would be beneficial to have at least some screenshots. Just two screenshots of the same stack in different density screens of similar size should do the job. If I get a

Perhaps this has been discussed before, but I guess I wasn't paying attention. Here goes: I like to take certain "clumps of code" or handy hints from the digest and paste them into Scriptors Scrapbook. 'cause you never know when they will come in handy. I have found that the only way I can get th

What I mean is to a java dev the screen is in an abstracted width, height and density. We need to work in the actual width, height and density. Regarding the bug report it might be good I we could add a recipe. Perhaps a recipe for creating a ldpi and xhdpi emulator at the same screen size then

Thank you Mark, that fixed the problem. However, I'm not sure I can use that solution. Won't lock messages apply to the stack I'm opening as well as the stack which issues it? If so, that could interfere with the opened stack's processing. If nothing else though, it narrows down the problem to t
