Kind of! I built an iOS app that needed to display some long fields of text, I built some pages based around this lesson: http://lessons.livecode.com/m/4069/l/94412-creating-a-native-scroller-to-scroll-a-field?id=94412-creating-a-native-scroller-to-scroll-a-field I had the same problem with navigating cards using swipe gestures because the field covered the majority of the card, I managed to work around the problem by modifying the scrollerDidScroll handler to: on scrollerDidScroll hOffset, vOffset // When the user scrolls horizontally, navigate in the desired direction if the hScroll of group "scrollArea" <0 then // Detect the horizontal swipe moveBack // Stack handler to move back to Index card else if the hScroll of group "scrollArea" >0 then moveForward // Stack handler to move to next card end if // When the user swipes vertically, scroll the displayed content set the vScroll of group "scrollArea" to vOffset end scrollerDidScroll To make this work I had to set these properties on the text field; traversalOn “false” autoHilite “false” lock text “true” So this may not work if you need the user to be able to modify the text unless you can give them a method of changing between edit/navigate modes. I’ve managed to update the lesson file, it's on dropbox, so if it helps here it is for you to test: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ak234nlwbgfko3p/Scroll%20Test.livecode?dl=0 <https://www.dropbox.com/s/ak234nlwbgfko3p/Scroll%20Test.livecode?dl=0> It does seem to be reasonably reliable, but not if you tend to swipe too fast, I have’t tried it on Android though.
