Hi James, I had forgotten about pageRanges since I never used it since it was introduced in LC 6.1. It is a lot easier than using formattedText. Thank you Kind regards Bernd -- View this message in context: http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/Text-Flow-tp4696328p4696335.html

One way is to have a hidden field the dimensions you want. Put the text into this field first and then get the pageranges of this field. It will return a list of character ranges, one per line, for each field (of the hidden field's size) required. So the number of lines will tell you how many

Hello, from time to time I read here about using external editors (with LC 6.x). I am completely missing how the workflow looks like with an external editor, which is not integrated into the IDE. No instant testing, no debugging, etc. Do you really copy and paste the code vice versa for testing?

There is a routine in the masterlibrary that calculates soft line wraps to solve the wrapping problem to which James referred.  I created it when I used the hidden field approach simulating page turning. https://www.dropbox.com/s/3wpwn3hfbmpl7sk/MasterLibrary.livecode?dl=0 On Sep 16, 2015,
