Re: Can't maintain textSize properties
Stam, Since I did admit I only write errant code I went through all of the project looking for the string "textSize". There were a few here and there, all in report handlers, all isolated to those handlers. Recall that the issue I have is that handfuls of disparate fields on multiple cards suddenly ...

Re: Can't maintain textSize properties
Stam. Thanks for taking the time to think about this. I never write erroneous code, only errant code. But I simply do not deal with changing font properties anywhere in the program. And I know how easy it is to believe that no tiny forgotten snippet can possibly exist to rear its head. It would be t...

Re: Can't maintain textSize properties
Three questions then: 1. Have you experienced anything like this with other stacks/applications (eg trying to rebuild a portion of this app from scratch)? Nope. 2. Has anyone else had this issue or is it just you? (I certainly haven't heard of this before or seen it posted on the forums, but then yo...

Re: how to print a line (row) of a dg table
CAsba.
Just something of interest to me. Did you extract the data from certain columns by setting the itemDel to "tab", looping through each line in the dgText and collecting only the same single item in each line? If so, you have come a long way.

Re: how to print a line (row) of a dg table
I am with Stam. Are you using a table field ? And are the text properties constant throughout that field? That is, the textSize of one line is not different than any other? Stam mentions a point, but I assume that if you get the dgText, then you are getting just that, the text of the DG. So there sh...

Re: Can't maintain textSize properties
Stam. Everything you say is spot on. Property inheritance from the parents was my first thought quite a while ago. I checked those, even though I rarely prepare card or stack text properties. I assume my controls' properties will stick all on their own out of the box. Likely not grown-up management ...

Re: how to print a line (row) of a dg table
CAsba. Place the dgText of the DG into a table field. The dgText is tab and return delimited, and if you adjust the tabStops on the table field appropriately, the whole of the text will display just fine. You will have to live with the visual issues related to widely varying widths of the several ta...

Can't maintain textSize properties
Yep. me again. In my largest project, now and then, the textSizes of some of the many fields in that project just change on their own. Sometimes larger, sometimes smaller, but usually larger. The textSizes of the cards themselves are empty. Last week on a handful of cards, all of which are built sor...

Re: Hiding The Keyboard.
The on-screen keyboard, which I have used only to find what certain keys represent if, say, I press the option key, is an OS gadget. LC cannot hide OS gadgets, any more than it could hide, say, an open excel spreadsheet.
Perhaps LC could use appleEvents?

If you get the "dgText" of your dataGrid, you have the entirety of its contents in a return delimited list. Just take that to your printer.

Rats. That is the third time in our long history I have done that, and the third time you have answered in exactly that way.
Could it be because I secretly want to be Richard Gaskin?
