Thanks for this. I also wasn't aware you could hide individual lines in
a field, and I have now refactored the glx2 script editor's code-folding

In this case the only thing I am trying to hide is all the subtext between the
main lines starting with the line clicked on. It's always going to be a
contiguous chunk, and nothing will change the contents of the field except my
scripts so that is good.
Not sure about the metadata property, bu

Yes, but depends on the scenario: Sometimes I find it more safe to walk
through the range (for j=tStartLine to tEndLine) and check the hidden

Richard, that is kind of what I was seeing with replace in field. Very dicey.
So I decided to see if I could use the hidden propery method to work. Here is
what I came up with. Remember that char 1 of the 1st level lines are spaces,
and the 1st char spaces in those lines have the imageData set t

It works seemingly well, even with chunk expressions, e.g.:
replace "i" with "X" in line 1 of fld 1 preser
set the hidden of line 1 to 3 of field "myField" to true -- only works with
fields not text in variables

I looked at the widget. Not sure how to use it. I got an object with a +
control which apparently creates custom property keys and displays it in the
field. I could probably make that work, but I probably won't have a lot of
control over the appearance. I got the thing working by manipulating th

Oh nice I didn't know a line of text could be hidden! I will check that out.

The tree widget might be useful here. Alternately, don't use replace, use
text chunking instead to add or remove lines.

Ok so no combination of replace in field will allow me to put something before
or after a line without borking the imagedata. The only way to do it is to
reapply the imageData each time I touch the field text. I was hoping to come up
with some king of widget eventially that allowed you to manipu
Thanks Mark. That solves half the problem. I would have to know the actual
character of the cr before the line I am trying to insert text before to do
something like
put "this is a test" & cr before line 3 of field "Scrolling List Field"
I can work around it I am sure. As long as I know that w

Okay so here is an odd thing. Given that the imageSource of char 1 of eack line
of a scrolling field is set to a graphic (A plus sign in this case):
on selectionChanged
put the clickChar into tChar
if tText is not space then exit selectionChanged
put word 2 of the clickLine into tLine
NVM I figured it out.
