That’s right! tabwidths are handy for this hiding too.
But I realized Tiemo might not even need to bother hiding the otherData if he
takes advantage of another property of fields - the metadata property:
set the metadata of line 1 of field 1 to otherDataString
set the metadata of line 2 of field 1 to otherDataString2
A field’s metadata is never visible.
Yet the otherData strings will travel along with each line as the user drags
the the lines up and down.
LiveCode offers so much flexibility! We can usually have a choice of approaches
to any problem
