Re: FormattedHeight
Yes, that seems to be the problem. I have a long text field that exceeds the maximum. There's an enclosing group to be compatible with acceleratedRendering on mobile. The same setup is used for all the field/group combinations in the stack and they all work except this one, but the others are all shorter. I set the inner field to its full formattedHeight inside the group, which is shorter. The group has a behavior that scrolls the content. I discovered today that if I set the behavior on the field instead of its enclosing group, I can make it scroll. But acceleratedRendering on a field is jerky and doesn't work very well on mobile. I can't break up the text, it has to be all one block. I have tried setting the group to container layermode without success. If you're wondering why the text exceeds the maximum, this is for a mobile app and there is not only a lot of heavy formatting with large headings and spaceBelow, but the text size is largish so that it is readable on a tiny phone. That makes the pixel count pretty high. I only have a very short time left to solve this. On 5/1/20 4:45 PM, scott--- via use-livecode wrote: Are you exceeding the maximum vertical scroll?

Is it possible to get the clicked cell for a table field, if the table is empty?
Folks: I have an app that requires that I be able to get the cell row and column when I click on the cell. I know a dataGrid can do this, but is it possible with a table field? I know I can get the clicked line, but what about the cell, when the table is empty. I use, to get the line (from the lessons), but it only returns the line number: on mouseUp put the clickline into msg put return & value (the clickline) after msg set the itemdelimiter to tab put return & item 1 of value (the clickline) && item 2 of value (the clickline) after msg end mouseUp Tnx for any suggestions.

Script Only Behaviors
Hi all. I’m gonna say that script only stacks cannot have behaviors eh? Reason is, I’d like to move my nested data grid behavior to a script only stack, but it occurs to me this might break the datagrid, since it’s next level behavior is the old data grid behavior button (not sure why that’s still there) then the actual script only datagrid library.

Re: sqLite delete memory database
I think SOLite intentionally fills the memory with garbage as part of its secure deletion when the database is closed.
