Hi there,

I am puzzling why this much simplified example of what i am trying to achieve does not work...

So in this simplified example i am grabbing the dgText and presuming i can simply restore it from the variable at a later date..?

Code: Select all

on mouseUp
   put the dgText of group "DataGrid 1" into virginData
   set the dgText of group "Datagrid 1" to virginData
   set the dgHilitedLines of group "DataGrid 1" to 1
end mouseUp

The dg text looks like this (shortened, there are around 600 lines) :
Spaces you see are tab delimiters:

Code: Select all

<font='FontAwesome'>&#61506;</font>    Adjust
<font='FontAwesome'>&#61506;</font>    Adjust
<font='FontAwesome'>&#61506;</font>    Adjust
<font='FontAwesome'>&#61506;</font>    Adjust
<font='FontAwesome'>&#61506;</font>    Adjust

So running the handler just appears to clear out the data grid and not the expected result of repopulating it with a copy of the original data..?

Hi Gary,

just made a little test with exactly your "mouseup" handler and it worked as exspected!?

Best

I neglected to mention i am using 6.7, so i wonder if this is a bug. Unless you just tested with a few lines in the dgData, rather than the 600 or so.
I will need to test this in 6.6.2 and see what happens there.
Thanks for looking though Klaus, gets me closer to understanding why i am seeing the issue, it has to be one of the 2 things i mention above i guess.

Aha, OK, please note the version you use (if not the latest stable release) next time, thanks.
