No, nothing like that there. That particular "last line" variation simply
does not work for me. However, I *can*
put word 1 of the last line of field "chatField"
and see the first word.
That's why it seems like a parsing error for the
set the textStyle of word 1 of the last line of field "chatField" to bold
variation.
