Re: Database file not showing on the device

Your problem may be the line:

put url ("binfile:" & sPath) into dPath

You don't have a variable sPath, but you do have one called thePath that you set up at the start of your script. Perhaps try fixing that?

Re: MobileBusyindicatorStart not working?

Heheh, so simple, but yet...

Works perfectly. Thanks Gerry! :-)

Even "wait 1 millisecs with messages" also allows it.

But shouldn't this be classified as a bug?

cheers,

MobileBusyindicatorStart not working?

I've been trying to use the mobileBusyIndicatorStart and ...Stop commands to show the iOS busy indicator but nothing appears on the simulator nor the device...

Is there anything special you need to do for this?

Has anyone used it successfully??

cheers

Re: DataGrid Form Slow on Device

First thing to do is to set the "Fixed Row Height" to true for the datagrid (in the DG properties pane). Or if that's not possible then try this link for more info: http://lessons.runrev.com/s/lessons/m/datagrid/l/9852-how-can-i-speed-up-drawing-when-fixed-row-height-is-false If anyone has more hint...

Re: DataGrid Form Slow on Device

Hi Todd Did you get any solution to this? Despite my previous post I'm now seeing something similar and am also considering how to optimise it! Look forward to hearing anyone's ideas. In my case I just have 3 fields and 1 image in each datagrid row and about 55 rows... but intending to have more row...

Re: DataGrid Form Slow on Device

Hi Todd

Are you doing anything to format the data or anything else special when the form DG is loaded? i.e. in your Row Behaviour? DGs on the device should be quicker than this. Can you post some of your code?

Re: Disable the scroller when scrollGroup is hidden

It must be placed in the same location (card or control or ...) where the control was created. So if you created it in your card script, then hide/disable it there. [Correction] Sorry, above is not quite correct - that's to do with messages originating from the control itself... From the docs: Note:...

Re: external revDB not found for device

Yep, sqlite in this case. The strange thing is that I just successfully built it again with 5.5.3 but can't with 5.5.5 commercial... or perhaps it's not possible with this version??? Weird.

Re: Multiple resolutions, resize stack a solution

G'day all Just in case you weren't aware of it, Monte presented his scaling/resolution independent framework called mApp at the LC Developer conference a month or so ago. He has it available on his website at mergext.com Definitely worth a look. I'm currently using it and hoping to get at least some...

Re: Sync Sound channel on iOs

Nothing like as long as that. But investigate these options - I'm not sure that you actually have to play the whole sound - it may be enough to just make the call to play it so that it preloads it. Good luck!

Re: Sync Sound channel on iOs

Well, definitely pre-load the sounds on separate channels and then "play" them one after another at vol 0 - and they'll all play at the same time - or close enough to it. The key is pre-loading them. I use something like this on openstack to preload some sounds: repeat with tChannel = kNumSoundChann...

Re: browser "execute" script

Hmm... could you perhaps load the URL into a local var, modify it to include your JS function, and then reload it... and then use the method I describe? Or is that not possible?

Re: browser "execute" script

Hi Sean I send a JS function call to a web page inside my native browser using the method you describe. I'm just making a JS call though, like "updateLoc()" as the "myScript" parameter. And inside the web page I have a JS function defined with the same name, containing that functionality. So my sugg...
