Bon soir André,
Hi,
In a stack, I have groups of fields so that when one is visible
the others are invisible.
Each field has its "lockText" and "list behavior" properties set
to true.
The user can edit the visible field by means of buttons (adding or
deleting a line).
So, the number of lines (the lenght of lines too), can increase or
decrease ;
When the content is changing, the size of the field is
automatically adapted (using formattedHeight and formattedWidth).
Consequently, I would like that the user could change at will the
position of the field in the card.
So I am trying to use "if command key is down then grab me" in
the script of each field.
BUT, MY PROBLEM is that, when grabing it, parts of the field
disappear (and possibly the entire field) as if it was sliding
under other (invisible) objects !! that, in fact, do not exist
there (except the invisible other fields of the group)
For a while, I supposed that this was due to the other fields of
the group (?), so I set all of them to "transparent" (opaque
property to false). But that does not work.
What am I doing wrong ? could it be a problem of "group boundary" ??
Is there a solution ?
I hope my explanations are not too unclear !
Thanks a lot in advance for any solution or idea to solve this
problem
Quick guess:
Are these fields part of a group, that group is "lockloc"ked and
the group is smaller (height/width)
I'd bet this is the problem, except the situation is worse than that.
In my experience, when you're dragging objects in a group, the
dragged object goes out of sight when you drag outside of the group's
boundaries, *even if its lockLoc is false*. The only workaround I've
found is to make the group the size of the card and set its lockLoc
to true. I don't know if this behavior is a bug or a feature.
