    OK, got it. Reminds me of the old IBM Block mode terminals that had a physical map (with all literal fields and color specs, input specs and protection specs) and a data map that was only the fields that returned values. Both were sent to the terminal which would use a forward only processing to paint the screen and enable the unprotected fields. Any action key on the terminal transmitted only the data map to the invoking program. It was up to the program to split the data map back into fields and do any validation and processing of the data. (very efficient use of transmission bandwidth in the old days.) :)

    Ring around, sounds like you are unpunctual, forwarded. (10) So, when I was starting this out, the thought process was: Circled was the ring, and it would go around the rest of the answer. That means that Circled should surround the other part of the answer. However, my mistake was dropping the l and e here. So, with the rest of the answer, Circled would have gone around ulate. That pesky l/e was my blindspot here, if I had left it in, that would be Circlulateed. Advanced TypeScript Programming Projects

    I'm getting something similar with Outlook. It's connected to Gmail (and others), and only the Gmail items - if I try to mark them as read - always come back as unread. Every other mailbox (non-Gmail) is fine.

For the longest time I went out of my way to avoid H.265 files 'cuz the system was using to view them was just stuttering all over the place. I replaced that system with the cheapest Beelink system I could find (you might have seen some of my posts ranting and raving about them) :-) and haven't had a single lost frame since. Even though it was an old Atom CPU, it still annoyed me a bit to have to replace it, as the machine was really single-purpose...for which it became unsuitable. Oh well.

    There is no way to tell for certain. But this guy, whatever his real name is, just always behaves in exactly the same way. Nearly all his questions are on the same two subjects (Bluetooth and Qt), even after being told that Qt is not C++. And if he doesn't like the answer he then deletes the content of his question so no one else can tell why we responded the way we did. He has previously admitted being banned from other sites, and still doesn't understand that it is all down to his attitude.
