My client's project has long text fields, in which are a number of separate lines that,
in the original Word files, had boxes around them. The "box" style in LiveCode
is too tight around the text for their taste, so I've been creating graphic rectangles
and positioning them by hand.
An issue has come up where wrapping is inconsistent on different systems
running XP; when the wrapping changes, the positioning of the graphics over the
text is wrong.
Is there a way to position the graphics in relation to a given line in a field
on the fly?
A combination of the selectedLoc and formattedHeight functions should
allow you to derive a rect.
