mobileControlDelete doesn't work

[John Dixon]

Jacque...

2 cards in a stack
Each card has a list field using a scroller

The scroller will work on card 1
Go to the second card
The scroller will work on card 2
Go back to the first card
The Scroller will not scroll
Go to the second card
The scroller will not scroll

This has been the case for an awful long time... This is not a problem when scrolling groups on multiple cards using scrollers, only it seems when an LC list field is involved.

be well
