I suggest trying it first, then reporting back. Happy to help you through it after.

This; on scrollerDidScroll hOffset, vOffset if goodToGo then set the vScroll of group "scrollArea" to vOffset end if end scrollerDidScroll Putting false into goodToGo stops it dead. Sorry only tested on Android. Simon Scroller Example.zip This works pretty well, in that it stops the content from mo...

Got it working. They didn't work originally because the glyphs were mapped to weird unicode codes, to "a,b,c,d, etc." Fontello lets you create your own code mapping so it's much easier to type the glyphs. Thanks!

Awesome! thanks, Simon! I'll give that a shot....

Hmmm, wingdings seem to work.

I found a flaticon.ttf file somewhere. It installed on my computer just fine. Maybe a better question is if someone knows of good mobile icon fonts that work well with LC

You have to include the font in the standalone "Copy Files".

Sorry, I should clarify. I am able to get the custom fonts onto the mobile app through copy files. I do this with other fonts all the time, but for whatever reason icon fonts don't seem to work.

Hi all-- I'm interested in installing iconfonts (such as http://www.flaticon.com/) to use for mobile icons, instead of using images. This would make it much easier to scale and look really sharp. Especially when the icon is only something simple like a chevron. I have downloaded and installed some i...

Still searching for an answer to this. Anybody?

Hi Grimadliface, see it this way: The ENGINE folder is TABOO, noone is allowed to write here! I'm not sure about the actual technical background, but I think opening a database prepares the db file to be read AND written to and this is prohibited in any case! Therefore you need to copy it to the us...

Not sure why this works on iOS but not android.... It definitively shouldn't work on iOS either! Why not take a look at the link I provided? 8) Klaus-- Thanks. I did read the thread you provided prior to posting this one. You're right, the search isn't THAT bad (but it's still pretty bad!). I guess...

Hi, What is the exact path to the database? Often, having characters like ()-/: and probably a few others cause such problems on Android. Another possibility is that it wants to be able to make changes to the database but lacks write permission. Copying to the documents folder might help in that ca...

Hi all, recently finished developing my first iphone app, and now I'm adapting it for android. everything works perfectly in the iphone version. The app uses a sqlite db that is copied over in the copy files to specialFolderPath("engine"). When I try to connect to the db on android, I get an error I...

Ciuld you perhaps use the 'dragging' property of the scroller to determine if a scroll (drag action) is already taking place and if it is then don't allow another scroll ( drag action) to take place until the first one has finished... Since the 'dragging' property for the scroller is boolean, if sh...

I am creating an app that is very similar to the "Contacts" app-- there is a bunch of alphabetic content that the user can scroll through. On the right is the alphabet listed--which allows the user to quickly jump to any part of the scroller (see screen shot). Currently, it works by detecting a move...

Thanks Dave! This definitely helps! It's just annoying that with Android, you can make the app and have it up and running straight away (and for free), whereas for Apple, you need to buy hundreds of dollars worth of stuff just so that Apple will let you do it :(. So just to confirm, looking at http...
