Trying to draw expansion/reduction left/down black triangles that will work in native filemaker solutions for Mac and Windows.

I don't think there is a character/font that works in both with these.

Don't want to use a graphic, as often background shade does seem to match between platforms (good on one, mismatched on another), and images are slower over the Server wire.

So my next solution was to do it using a small Web Viewer using a html/data approach, and the HTML character code.

This works, except that the redraw seems so slow enough (even for this one character box) that I get a noticeable white flash on layout change as the background color of the web box is redrawn from white to the background colour of the layout.

Am I missing an obvious solution here, or should I just skip the triangles?

Thanks in advance for your expertise!

Cheers,

Justin
