LC Community: I filed a bug yesterday: https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=21426
This seems to me to be a pretty serious bug, however, Panos enlightened me that there is a nearly identical bug from 2013 (see https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=11345). This bug - namely if you have a long line of text in a field, whether wrap is on or off, scrolling does not work as expected when the text is center or right aligned. You can not scroll to see all the text. It is rendered outside the boundaries of the scrollable areas of the field! This bug has apparently been present since at least version 6.7.11 and perhaps earlier and yet is still present in LiveCode 9. Without starting a general thread on how good or not good LiveCode is at fixing bugs (personally I think they do a fine job with limited resources), I am asking whether others have run into these bugs and what you may have done for a work-around? In my specific case, we are creating a "frequency" cloud (or work cloud) where certain words/phrases are shown in larger text relative to how offten they occur. This looks best when the text is one long lone, wrapped and centered. If you look at the sample stack for bug 21426 with the text centered (there is a button for that) and resize large so all the text fits, you'll see what it (should) look like. Does any one else need this bug fixed? _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
