Well, when I print, and look at the PDF the image isn't there. I am also struggling with it in another regard, when...

Printing from group, not card?
Hello, I am printing to PDF, it is my understanding it will only accept a "card" to print off, and not a group. My issue is my screen is shorter than a PDF. I found a solution by extending the stack length and dragging the group to the bottom of the stack, off screen. This is rather cumbersome thoug...

Re: Displaying text and some other Q's
I certainly appreciate the help and advise, and believe you are correct. What I really am having problems with, is coming from C and Lua and other languages like that, this is WAY too simple, is very hard to grasp compared to standard programming. The issue for me, is how things are done in the LC s...

Re: Displaying text and some other Q's
Sorry, my lack of knowledge of terms used in this SDK are showing, I apologize. No, I did not figure out how to limit to one line. Here is the link: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=14415 that I saw, but it didn't make a lot of sense to me. What I have, is a program where on one card you enter a bunch of data, a...

Re: Displaying text and some other Q's
When I said label, I meant the object 4th down on the left row on the menu-tool thing. But I did what you said, and it worked great! However, is there a way to limit the entry of a text field to one line? I found one topic on it, and it totally blew my mind. Another thing I forgot, that is rather im...

I now know programming quite well, and the syntax comes fairly natural. I am back, this time with an idea in mind, and I am wondering if it is possible ...
