Getting Started with LiveCode - Experienced Developers • Polygrid - I'm in love but am I being respectful?

Hi:

The more I use it the more I love it. Polygrid is aesthetically charming,fast, elegant and generally a joy to use.

BUT...
Say I want to update cell 3,3 of my polygrid. At the moment my solution is

put the text of widget "pgWhatever" into t
put tNewValue into item 3 of line 3 of t
set the text of widget "pgWhatever" to t

Principle merit: it works
Principle cause of my sense of horror: I feel like a domestic abuser to the beauty that is polygrid. Is there a better way?

By the way, most of my polygrids are small relatively speaking (a few hundred rows at most) - so finding a more efficient way hasn't been forced on me. But I do hate inelegant programming when an elegant solution exists. I tried updating the pgData but have not yet succeeded.

Ashamed, of Thailand
