[comp.sys.mac.programmer] Limitation of lastest ResEdit

tomc@mntgfx.mentor.com (Tom Carstensen) (11/15/88)

I recently downloaded ResEdit 1.2b2 (i think that is) from GEnie,
I overall like the bug-cleanup from the previous version.

HOWEVER, When I opened one of my resources, of which I've defined
my own TMPL for, I get the message:

   The list contains too many fields.  The resource
   probably does not match the template.
   
WHAT!! - I only have 172 occurence of my TMPL in that resource (each
having 6 fields).  What kind of limitation is this??? It certainly does
match my TMPL, and I would like to edit it??

I know, I know - it means hundreds of window/dialog items (editible
text, etc).  Maybe it's time to redesign the basic way TMPL'd resource
are viewed - getting rid of the huge cumbersome scrollable list of 
items.
