Hi Ron,

Can you give me an example script that shows the problem?
If my memory serves me well, it should automagically adapt to the current font height.

TIA,

This maintenance update to Quartam PDF Library fixes a bug with with multiple images in a single PDF document. Special thanks to Wayne Durden for pointing out the faulty code. The cross-platform .zip archive can be downloaded at: http://downloads.quartam.com/qrtpdflib_113_xplatform.zip A web page wi...

Hi Josep, Those are all logical consequences of the way images are handled in Quartam Reports now: you have to use a fixed path rather than an expression, and the LiveCode engine keeps track of which image controls have which filename so that it can cache the data. Revamped image handling is on the ...

Hi Josep, I'm sorry, but I can't find a cause just by looking at the code and experimenting. Could you distill a reproducible scenario that I can step through with the debugger, and send it to support@quartam.com? It doesn't have to be the complete application with an actual database, just a .qrl la...

You can't make mainstack A the substack of another mainstack B, if mainstack A itself still has some substacks of its own. You'll first have to spin off the two substacks 'qrtPDFDemos' and 'qrtPDFHelp' as mainstacks of their own, and then you can add 'qrtPDFlib' as substack to the stack from which y...

Thanks for the additional information. I see you're converting from UTF-8 to UTF-16, and then converting to whatever the native single-byte codepage of the platform is. Try changing the data field expression to: uniEncode(sDetail["Description"], "UTF8") And then in the Inspector palette, change the ...

If there is no return at the end of the data, then the only thing I can think of right now, is that the heigth of the data field in the layout is too tall - this is considered to be the minimum height for the field and the engine wll only stretch, not shrink. Could you elaborate on the data field? I...

Is it possible that somewhere along the way the 'lockMessages' is set to 'true'? That would prevent the engine from sending a 'resizeStack' event message to the preview stack as it is moved and resized for optimal view by the user. You could try changing your loop to: repeat with x=1 to sRowCount pu...

No glaring mistakes there, so we'll have to see what happens in a ontrolled enviuronment, and then widen the net until we capture the cause.
In the meantime, I did the same test on my MacBook Pro, and all looked as it should.

Thanks in advance for the feedback,

Jan Schenkel.
