hi I’m having trouble implementing cloning. there are several posts that talk about it but each time the link is obsolete to do well I started from a small example of a clone of a line in screen1 with a button and even that it does not work I must not be awake ---

If you are dreaming then anything is possible with Thunkable! But if you’re awake then that’s just not enough information to be able to help you… ---

This is a demo using clone [https://x.thunkable.com/projectPage/60f9d0972a44700012939067](https://x.thunkable.com/projectPage/60f9d0972a44700012939067) It might not fit your needs because you did not say what you are trying to achieve with the `clone` block. ---

hi thank you for this demo I compared with what I was trying to do. I couldn’t see anything because the row I wanted to clone was invisible looking more closely at an example in a post the item to copy is invisible but before cloning it is made visible what i’m trying to do ?

> [@bibbi](#): > > the row I wanted to clone was invisible You can do the following, Add a row or column to the screen then add whatever you want to **clone** inside the row or column but keep these items **visible**. The last step is to make the row or column itself **invisible**. Now the items are not visible because they are inside a row or column that is set to be invisible but if you clone these items to anywhere else then they become visible. ---

hi I have a small problem the column (scrollable activated) which receives the clones generated by a loop does not scroll ---

The scrollable feature of the column only works if the height is set to fit content and only works if the column is inside another column or other container with specific size. Once you set these two requirements then it will work. ---

> [@bibbi](#): > > set this two requirements and i doesn’t work It would be very difficult to guess what other settings are interacting with these in your project. If you could share a minimal copy that I can see then I can give you a faster response. If your screen is set to scrollable then your outer column cannot be set to relative sizing. That could be one of the issues. ---
