A couple questions? 1-I just found out that the maximum size of a field is 32K. I have a stack that hold a book ( 100 chapters), one chapter per card using a large scrollable field in each card, most chapters fit in the fields except about 10 that need to be fitted in 2 or 3 fields(thus taking 2,3 cards). the reason is that they are larger than 32K and can't fit in one field. Now I have them in multiple cards (this makes thing a little acward), I could put 2 or 3 field per card that make up the size one large field( not very estetic) or I could place 2 or 3 super-imposed fields of the same size each one holding a part of the chapter then I add a couple buttons to move(show) from one field to another. I was wondering if it was also possible to change the max. size of a field to larger than 32K or if you have some other suggestions other than the 3 I have mentioned: 1-use multiple cards for large chapters 2-use smaller fields and place them( 2 or 3) on the same card 3-use 2 or 3 super-imposed fields, and each time show one and hide the others 2-is there away to move to card by specifying it's name? I know how to go to card by its card number, "go to card #" but this is not good in the scripts if you change the order of card, add/delete cards. I also know how to go to card by its id, "go tocard id #" but this is tedious and too criptic, make your scripts unreadable and ugly. so is their a way to go to a card by specifying its NAME? thanks! looking forward to your replies !! -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ /\ ! ~~~~Hayaa Ala-falaah Abdennour Moussaoui || _~_~_ Allahu Akbar Allahu Akbar Oregon State University ||(_____) Laa Illaha Ila Allah~~~~ email=abdenour@mist.cs.orst.edu |||_|_|_|
