Re: handling raw keys on android

I have returned to this issue since ADA support on Chromebook is getting more attention from my user base. I did some research and from the ChromeOS documentation, it appears that (according to Google) ChromeOS fully supports the android keyboard support. I retried intercepting raw key down and up i...

Re: Android apps is not in app bundles, can not submit

It is a new app and I'm pretty sure that I filled everything in. The only thing that I can think of is that the app is large even when built for one native atchitecture.

Re: Android apps is not in app bundles, can not submit

I have run into this issue as well. I build 4 different apks, one for each of the 4 architectures and uploaded them. Now, I get the "warning" for each of the apks, even though each one only supports one native platform. And even though they call it a "warning", the "start rollout to production" butt...

Re: changing the manifest

I think the solution must be adding android:resizeableActivity to the manifest. However, no matter what I do, I cannot change the manifest. I tried modifying the manifest.xml that comes with LC and that breaks the build (reported elsewhere, so no surprise). Then I tried adding my own manifest.xml to...

Re: changing the manifest

I tried "mobileSetAllowedOrientations". Doesn't help. No stack resize event. As near as I can tell, no event at all.

Re: Android API required api level

I am trying to use the "manifest in copy files" solution to a different problem, that is, to make Chromebook not try to resize my app. When I build with my manifest, it works fine on an Android but the chromebook won't install the app, saying there is a problem parsing the package. I need to disable...

Re: changing the manifest

So far, just 3, one a show-stopper. First is the size limitation of an app in the Play Store. We got around that by downloading any extra content from an update server on first use. Second, it looks like you cannot write to cache ("temporary" and 'cache" special folders map to the same place) so had...

Re: changing the manifest

I just saw another post that mentions a custom manifest in the copy files, so i am going to try that. Sorry for the chatter.

changing the manifest

I'm still working on making my app run seamlessly in Chromebook and i have everything working except that when the user clicks on the resize, Chromebook thinks it has resized the app but it doesn't send any event for me to handle. So, I want to disable resizing in the manifest. However, when I add a...

Re: Collapse and expand Tree View Widget from code

Hello,

I am wondering if there is any further activity on this issue. Specifically, I need to:

1. get a message when the user collapses/expands a fold

2. be able to expand/collapse a fold from code.

thanks,
Mark

handling raw keys on android

I'm trying to port my program to Chromebook by making it an Android app and so far, everything has worked fairly well. One problem that I have is that I need to capture keystrokes so that I can implement shortcuts in the app (for ADA compliance). It appears that the rawkeydown event is not being fir...

Re: can i use livecode on a chromebook with intel?

So, I got an Intel chromebook and everything works great! It appears that the warning about LC building only for ARM is for the emulators, not actual devices. (actually, I didn't try an emulator, so maybe it isn't really an issue there either.)

Re: can i use livecode on a chromebook with intel?

Thanks, everyone, for your replies. AxWald's post is quite encouraging, so I am going to try to locate an Intel based Chromebook (the one that I have is ARM) and see what happens. I will post my findings. I do know that older Chromebooks cannot run Android apps, so that is a caveat that we will have...

can i use livecode on a chromebook with intel?

I'm trying to port my LC code that runs on Mac and Windows to the Chromebook. I built for the Android and side loaded the .apk onto the Chromebook. When I install the .apk, I get an error that the package appears to be corrupt. In digging around on the forum and the docs, I came across comments like...
