Re: Anyone in the list who can successfully use the new PolyGrid widget?

Done. https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=23752 As it's possible to delete columns in a Datagrid which still has content, i would say this is a bug in Polygrid. > Am 17.06.2022 um 17:46 schrieb Steven Crighton via use-livecode
