Yes, though AFAICS, there won't be a solution as the underlying PDFium library does not support it. Presumably the answer is to get the business edition containing the XPDF lib. But... I was wondering if anyone else had found a solution for this, perhaps using javascript handlers within a browser wi...

Nothing to do with the export - the form data is not displayed within the PDF widget on-screen. The export to jpg works fine, the PDF widget does not. Sorry for not making that clear.

Hi Jacque, yes, that's what I'm doing, it's easy to do. BUT the problem is that the PDF widget does not display the form data. i.e. the fields in the form that have data entered into them.

On further investigation, sounds like this may be a limitation of the PDFium library, on which the widget is built...?

Trying out the PDF widget (to export page images to JPG) and while this "works", the displayed PDF contains form fields that have entries but these are not displayed when opened with the PDF widget. I could use the browser widget to load the PDF but this doesn't enable me to scale the container effe...

I modified your stack a little Stam to improve the speed a little using "repeat for each" with an index for the loop, and also break down the filter timing to get some info on how long split and filter take. Got the results below: loop found: 4000000 in 5419 milliseconds split took: 10471 millisecs ...

Time passes...

and I come to the party late. But to colorise cell 3 of row 2 of a table field, you can simply do:

set the itemDel to tab
set the backcolor of item 3 of line 2 of fld "dataset2" to red

cheers

Couldn't see the data in the inspector.
Couldn't access either pgText nor pgData - errored out.

Haven't reported the error as haven't spent the time to reproduce in a shareable stack, unfortunately.

Yeah, nice one. "a while ago" = 10 years.... How time flies.

One of the annoying things with new controls is the plethora of options in a non-LC-code style. eg. we should be able to: sort control "pgControl" by column 2 numeric descending or something similar. Different control script interfaces leads to hard-to-use, unintuitive scripting. These are the types...

Thanks but the problem with the data corruption is that I can't now actually access any of the data at all, even though it's visible in the PG. Weird. Luckily I had previously exported the data, so could reset the text to empty and import the saved data...

Might be time to revert to the DG...

Has anyone else seen data corruption when using the Polygrid when deleting/adding rows and/or modifying the columns? I had some weird issue with multiple new empty columns being added. After deleting these new columns I now can't seem to access the data or text of the polyGrid and just get errors su...

If you can open more than one segment it becomes hard to know where the the accordion ends. To display different sets of controls in a segment I think the user would be more familiar with the tab-panel control. Easy to hide and show groups of controls for each tab. An accordion is more for informat...

Hmm, thanks Jacque, hadn't thought about styling the tree view, must have a look!

cheers!
