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...

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 ...

Stam.

What do I look like, a power user???

No, though.

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...

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...

I did mention that the OP's original post was confusing to me. And Richmond.

Matt???

And now I believe what the OP actually said, that it is a desktop issue.

@ Matt. What are you trying to do?

Craig

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.

Richmond.

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?

Craig

Jacque. I am idle most of the day. And I do talk to myself. And I never send messages to myself, because I will never read them. But you, who were the one decades ago who taught me never to use idle messages unless nothing else would do (this was in HC, way before we had "send in time") cannot all o...

The OP did mention not being at his PC, when surely he meant not having his phone in hand.

Otherwise I am really confused.

Klaus, In general, does "focus on nothing" hide a mobile keyboard?

Craig

Stam. Richard.

Stop.

This part of the dictionary only makes it worse: On OS X systems, the image specified in the gRevAppIcon variable appears as the application icon in the answer dialog box (unless the answer...as sheet form is used). If you specify an iconType, the image specified in the gRevSmallAppIcon variable is ...
