Hi Mark Waddingham, This message didn't get through befroe, apparently, due to your servers being down (just another thing to cause us stress...). So here's what I sent
Thank you for you very comprehensive response. It does help me understand a great deal more about the innards of the data grid. However, I have been running my grid in an 800x600 window. I had restarted fresh with a new template stack and new row template. The template has the original BG untouched. The original field renamed, and repositioned, and two others copied from it and repositioned. (Later I had a rounded rectangle added which sits behind the last field but this made no difference to performance). The row height is set to 30. No layout control other than for the data content. Minimal layout set to true. I kept it basic as it could be. But it still stutters on scroll with or without Accelerated rendering on. So, in my very humble opinion, something is still 'up'! I don't know what it is but Form view is definitely not operating up to par for some reason. As suggested, I have had to spend considerable more time coding my own data grid. This has held us up no end as a result. Again. Especially as, because HTML5 deployment is broken so much, that I have to manually code nearly all key and mouse operations that come in (delete, backspace, escape, arrows, mouse-scroll, double-click, cut, copy, paste, - anything other than a-Z,0-9 pretty much). And geometry doesn't work either for HTML5 so I have to code resize for almost every object manually. It is getting tiresome and tedious just how much in LC does not work! I'm am very nearly at burnout stage from it - Again! LC almost killed me last year and it is trying really hard to do it to me again it seems. Try it, see for yourself!
