All TinyTERM for iOS products support the creation of custom keyboard layouts. When creating a custom layout, the keyboard key at the beginning of a row sets the default height value for the entire row. As such, using the keyHeight argument in the definition of the first key in a row changes the height for all subsequent keys. This causes display problems with the keyboard: either rows that are too short, or blank rows next to keys that are supposed to overlap the next row instead.
The workaround is to insert a thin blank key of standard height at the beginning of the row:
[spacer;;blank=1;;size=0.05]

Wyse50 emulation does not consistently display graphics characters correctly. In normal use this may not be noticed. Graphics-intensive host applications are likely to have display problems eventually, though.

The hardware keyboard should be mappable on OS X by putting a keyboard.dat file into ~/Library/Application Support/TinyTERM-ITX . But doing so does not actually change the keyboard behavior. A similar problem affects TinyTERM for Linux.

When using TN3270 emulation in TinyTERM Plus 4.7.4, some SSL connections will fail. This is tied to the addition of the LU name to the TinyTERM status bar. Earlier versions of TinyTERM Plus do not have this but.

In TinyTERM ITX 3270 for iPad, make a change to an existing session. It doesn’t matter what gets changed: color connection type, host IP address, etc. The Connect button fails after the change, doing nothing if touched.
You can hit Done, then connect from the main TinyTERM screen. You can also connect from the configuration screen if no changes were made. It’s only if changes are made that the button fails.

VT420 emulation has the capability to create protected fields. TinyTERM mishandles these in some cases, causing the fields to display as blank, regardless of their contents.
