Hi Terry,
I would never set the height of a field to such a high number. Not only
fields, but groups too cause problems if they get that big. Similar
problems occur on all platforms, including Windows and OSX operating
systems.
A good alternative is to set the field to a reasonable size and increase
and decrease the scroll of the field, instead of setting it to a fixed
number, i.e.
set the scroll of fld x to the scroll of fld x + 10 // (or - 10)

I'm running into what seems like a bug on Android. I have a bunch of formatted
text that I'm displaying in an LC field on Android. The field's height is set
to its formattedHeight in a locked group (it's the only control) and is
scrolled using a native scroller control.
It all works well until I throw a fairly big chunk of text at it (e.g. enough
to give formattedHeight of greater than 40000). Setting the htmlText of the
field seems to work OK but once I set the height of the field to its
formattedHeight value the app locks up. It appears to be an Android only
problem because the same field displays fine at its full height on an iOS
device.
Has anyone else seen this?
