Re: Styled text on mobile
Scriptable rich text in a native mobile text field? I second that! -Dan On 7/18/20, 9:01 AM, "use-livecode on behalf of Richard Gaskin via use-livecode" wrote: J. Landman Gay wrote: > It's possible.

I probably should have specified: I was hoping there might be at least something in the works to bring the scripted mobile-native editable field up to par with other apps that allow styles to be applied to text the user writes.

It's possible. For a LiveCode field, note that the font has to have a font variant for each style. Some time ago LC stopped supporting artificially altered font styles. The native system font on each mobile OS supports all styles.
