Datagrid Confusion

[richmond62]

The current dataGrid is popularly known as 'DataGrid 2', so I would be grateful if someone could tell me in which version
of LiveCode this was introduced and replaced the previous dataGrid?

IIRC most of the enhancements in DG2 were for mobile, like slide-to-delete.

There was also a refinement to internal control references which allows one to effectively subclass the DG with behavior scripts. This may have been a matter of changing some of the "me" references to use the relatively new "this me", avoiding the misinterpretion in some contexts which had previously made DG1 problematic with behavior scripts. That specific change is just a guess; I haven't looked into the code or related enhancement requests deeply enough to confidently list specific changes.

One way to assess change anywhere in the product is to use the Advanced Search feature in the issue DB. The team generally does a good job of keeping that current, often easier than going through a series of Release Notes PDFs.

Thanks for that, but that doesn't actually answer my question.

An answer would be like this:

'DG1 was replaced by DG2 in LC version x.x.x'
