I've done this in the past by faking it. Set the textcolor of the line to
a light gray. Then in the mouseUp handler, check the textcolor of the
clickline and if it's gray, ignore it.

Thanks for the effort, but I need something simpler.
Your suggestion with mousedown/mouseline already crossed my mind,
but I was wondering if there was a property or something similar...
For instance, this would be very handy :
disable line 2 of fld "listField"
Best,

I just tried a quick and dirty method, not fully fleshed but it might do
what you need to if you can work out all the positioning..
I made a list field with enough entries to require scroll, then I made
some graphic rectangles and lined them up with the lines I want to
disable. Added 1 extra grc, then grouped them.
Size the group to cover the field with the blocking graphics in the right
position, then.. "set the top of grc "bottomMarker" to the top of group
"maskgroup" + the formattedheight of field "myField"
This causes the group to have the ability to scroll. (I actually think
Ineed to add the height of the graphic also, but since I have the
horizontal scrollbar turned on it just covers it up when I scroll to the
max)
Then, in the script for the field a simple "set the vscroll of group
"maskGroup" to the vscroll of me makes them stay in sync, and moves the
blocking rects along with the lines I wish to block.
There are issues not worked out yet, such as.. If using a scroll wheel to
adjust the field, when the mouse is over a blocked line the scrolling
stops. How to line up the blocking lines dynamically (though i'm sure
theres already math out there to do this so that a blocking group can be
dynamically generated
Of course, there is probably a way to catch the mousedown and choose to
ignore it based on the mouseline, which would be much easier.

Hi list
When a field behaves as a list, is it possible to temporarily disable
certain lines of the field so that they aren't clickable nor selectable,
while other lines remain selectable ? If yes, which property should I
use ? I have searched the dictionary but to no avail...
Thanks in advance.
