I’ve recently run into what feels like a bug with formattedWidth and formattedHeight of a field in android. I’m attempting to maximize (without clipping) the textSize of a string in a fixed-size field. I have code that works reliably in the IDE and on iOS but not on android. My use case seems

I think that emojis not rendering to PDF has been a longstanding issue… and I thought that I had filed a bug report on this but looking at bugzilla, I failed to find it. (sigh). I have code in two of my apps that alert the user, should PDF creation fail, that they should remove emojis from

Hello Graham, I agree that using a built in native keyboard is the best solution… if it does what you need. I have an app where the native keyboard (numeric keypad in this case) presented enough distractions of its own that I ended up rolling my own in a later version of the app. For my

So Alex, the takeaway here seems to be that once you name your child objects… “now it’s too late.” While reading this out aloud, I taught my classes of 2nd and 3rd graders to say, “Noo” after the second line. And I usually paused to let the class finish Oliver Boliver’s name. — Scott
