Len,
I've done several programs similar to spreadsheets. In every case,
instead of drawing lines, I draw the grid lines in a drawing program,
MacDraft, where I have greater control of the appearance; then I save
the drawing as a JPG and use that to create an image which I can
display on the cards, placing transparent text fields over the image.
It could also be saved in a number of other graphic formats. I
haven't tried this when the "spreadsheet" is larger than the screen
and needs to be scrolled, but I suspect I could work out something
that would work, possibly by paging the data instead of scrolling it
line by line; or by partially paging by half or quarter pages, using
buttons instead of scroll bars. I just love to use drawings. (smile)

fields from Rev.
My problem is that I can't get the lines straight (hor. or vert)
and I
can't figure out how to edit them in the property inspector (I'm
using
Galaxy by the way). Every time I change one number (like upper
left),
all the other numbers adjust when I really want them to stay the way
they were. When I try and move the line, it changes the angle rather
than the position. Is there a way to draw (and move) simple
vertical or
horizontal lines?
Check out "the points" of your graphic. I drew a diagonal line and
"the points" of that line are:
92,62
260,150
If I change this to
92,62
260,62
I get a horizontal line.
If I change it to
92,62
92,150
I get a vertical line.
HTH,
Sarah
