Polygrid or polylist as datagrid form replacement?

So, Terry is correct: Polygrid and Polylist currently have fixed/uniform row heights. I hope that might be enhanced one day. So if variable row height is a requirement, you’ll have to stick with the Datagrid for now.

This was also discussed in the Forum last year, including hints on how to achieve variable row heights in a Datagrid:
