Re: LiveCode 8.2.0 DP-1 Dropping Keystrokes in IDE

Do you experience the same issue when editing the IDE behavior stacks? For example revidelibrary (12k lines)? I ask because I tried to duplicate the issue on my system (Win10, HP EliteBook 840G1) and could not. I don't have any stacks that I know of with that many lines to check though (other

Thanks for the prompt Mike. Short answer - don't know yet, though I suspect I'm going to have to find out. I do not currently have "mobile text field objects" - all I have are just standard LC fields, so returninfield is all I need for the 'return' part of the problem - no need for

Re: Constraining an input field's contents to be a single line.

The easiest thing to do is to use a mobile input field, but if you aren't interested in doing that, Let's see: Crazy idea that I haven't tried 1: You might be able to trap the field getting the focus, and if it does get the focus, lock the screen until you can process textChanged, keyDown, etc.,
