You know, I don't know. I have spent so much time on these bugs that my brain is burned out. Someone like Mark Waddingham can determine the architecturally correct return values and then make sure the Dictionary reflects the right way to use them. At this point, I have work-arounds to shell

Thanks Sean. As you suggested, using: put the effective layermode of grp "Row Template 0001" of grp "dglist" of grp "DG_Browse" I get "dynamic". The acceleratedRendering of the stack is true. Despite this, the datagrid scrolling is still slow and choppy on an iPad Pro. Henry -- Sent

Hi all I’ve been testing extensively all day and I’ve determined that acceleratedRendering has no effect on Form View DataGrids at all. Screen recordings and lining them up shows no difference in performance with zero, one , two, three or four fields populated with 200 or 2000 records of data.

I think what Herman is referring to is when you access sample stacks from within LC itself (but I don’t think I’ve used that since v8 coz I thought it broke back then ). But the forum and main site works completely on all platforms here. Maybe it’s a localised server issue?!? I hope you get it
