Well, my bad, Kevin, I thought you folks were not going to support it in 8. Maybe that had to do with an issue on mobile. On Thu, May 5, 2016 at 3:47 PM, Roger Eller wrote: > It has always worked fine for me on simple layouts (Desktop only). > However, for mobile it doesn't really make sense. >

I believe the GM has been deprecated, unfortunately. You have to do it manually, or set up substacks with different layouts. If you use tmc, the job is a bit easier. What are you working on, T? On Thu, May 5, 2016 at 2:08 PM, Terence Heaford wrote: > > The Geometry Manager does not work with

+1 tabstops is another property I use quite a bit in scrolling list fields which is no longer available in the LC8 PI. Will the geometry manager appear at some point? I know it's a bit rough round the edges for complex situations but I've always found it to work quite well for simple resizing.
