Multi-line Scrolling List Field

Post by Tester2 » Tue Nov 12, 2013 2:06 am

I am using the MobGui plugin's Scroller and have created a scrolling list field for my iPad app.

One issue I've run into is that when I enter my data into the Contents of the Scrolling List Field, a Return (or line break) creates a new Line item (row).

With this being the case I cannot add a second line to my rows.

This is what I am desiring in each row:

TITLE
description

TITLE2
description2

Is this possible?

Please advise.

Thanks so much!

Sounds like you should be using a data grid form rather than a list field. With the data grid you can arrange objects (fields, buttons, whatever) for each "record" however you wish. Data grids are a little complicated but they do provide maximum flexibility.
