Native Scroller Problem in LC 8
If this stack is opened with LC 7.1.4 then there is no problem at all. The scroller scrolls within its rect as it should… If however the stack is opened with LC 8.0 then the content does not scroll within the rect of the scroller, but bursts out and covers the whole card from top to bottom… Anyone else seeing this before I submit a bug report ?
The screen shots below... the first one shows the scroller behaving as it should, the second showing the content filling the screen not scrolling within its rect as it should...

Hi John - I don't use native scrollers at the moment but what you describe sure walks like a bug and quacks like a bug so maybe just report it!

Re: Native Scroller Problem in LC 8
It seems that no one uses native scrollers...
Either that or I am going the wrong way in how to use them under LC 8..

I use scrollers all the time, and have had good luck with them in v8.
How are you establishing the scroller's rect? And are you using scaleFactor?

Dixie, it sounds like you are experiencing the same issue as Louis, have a look at http://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.ph ... 80#p143180

Re: Native Scroller Problem in LC 8
Either the scroller works or it doesn't. If it does, we can fix the script. If it doesn't, a bug report would need to be filed.
I've used scrollers extensively with v8 under Android, so we can rule out an engine issue there.
Perhaps this is specific to iOS? Since we're seeing two people with what appears to be the same issue, filing a bug report would seem useful.
