As I’ve had to build every form myself in the past, they were constructed of fields, lines, and boxes. As such, with them not being opaque, I could put a rectangle behind the group that was turned visible when the group was active, as a visual cue. Now that I’m using pdfs, this isn’t working

Hi There are others who are seeing Crash to Desktop while debugging. There is a bug report where people can upload their crash logs to. You should upload yours there to give the LC team more data to work with, especially if you can reliably reproduce it.

Yes indeed. So some 'tiny' things we still have. Also i had multiple lines of text on one row. I increased the row height. looked ok in the IDE but had the issue on mobile. I had to remove te DG and template, reopen the stack, and drag a new dg on it. After that 2 other DG's on other cards

That's a long standing issue and I think it has to do with the way the TreeView widget is implemented. Correct me if I am wrong. When I create a column in the Datagrid, after naming it, I then have to click the column AGAIN to get it to refresh. Really frustrating. Bob S > On Aug 1, 2019,

I feel foolish. From the dictionary: Note: On OS X systems, you can use the open process command to start up an application, but not a Unix process. To work with a Unix process, use the shell func instead. When I saw this in the Dictionary, I thought, "Oh, when did this break?" I should have

Re: Challenge: who can background this shell command?

This is one approach I would explore. 1. Create a window group of one custom window using Terminal. Set it up to run the process and have distinctive colors and title. And, most importantly, to run the process. 2. Use open process to launch, not Terminal, but the group. This is the part

That works in the message box - thanks Matthias. The only thing is I can't (yet) tell what port the server is running on - I can see from the terminal (using pgrep) the process id of the started server - but it does not appear to be serving correctly on the default server port... Do you think

Can't say I've been experiencing too many crashes (I'm currently using 9.0.4 and 9.5.0 dp1) but the problem where the breakpoint dots (and line numbers) don't keep up with or align with the appropriate script line seems to be a very common occurrence in 9.5 (haven't tried the 'stable' version
