Hi Dan,
An interesting idea, however the problem is with the following line of code,
which takes place in the preOpenCard script.
set the height of field "ViewingField5" of this card to tHeight5
(When tHeight5 > 32768 the above line of code fails in the iOS Simulator
and does not complete any more script statements after that line with no
error message being generated. At this point nothing is being executed
on the group. It is a variable going beyond the limit here. Is there any way
to make the variable bigger like a double precision integer or some such thing?)
Suggestions?
Thanks,
Rick
