Re: making DG2 usable
I don't know, but you can create quickly and easily something similar, for a test. 1. Create a new datagrid form 2. Populate it with some data, by using the inspector 3. By adding this script in a button, turn the datagrid in edit mode. set the dgEditMode of grp "datagrid 1" to true 4. You can disable / enable the animation by using the "animate actions" property: set the dgProps["animate actions"] of grp "datagrid 1" to false 5. And the property "enable swipe" will give you the possibility to turn on / off the swipe gesture. set the dgProps["enable swipe"] of grp "datagrid 1" to false On Wed, Jan 31, 2018 at 10:32 PM, PystCat via use-livecode wrote: > It was an email announcing some of the new features and it showed a web clip > of it in action.

DG2 is a multi-part project and there’s still some work to be done on the accelerated rendering required so the nested groups in the datagrid are able to use a scrolling layer mode.

Re: making DG2 usable
Good to hear about anything that improves overall rendering performance. But as for DG2, am I the only one who finds it too wonky to use? I hope so. It's pretty cool, but too stuttery to foist on end-users. I'd like to believe it's just something in my setup, and that there's a way to use it that's as cool as its feature set. -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World Systems Tom Glod wrote: Hey Richard did you hear Kevin's interview with Mark during the global conference? in it he mentioned the difficulties in documenting how the accelerated rendering works so there will be a "debug" mode that helps developers to visually see what is working with accelerated rendering and what isn't.

The new DG2 has some great features, but on my phone its performance makes it unusable. Scrolling is painfully slow, the reordering and deleting slow enough to feel wonky.
