I looked it up in the dictionary and appears to have the functionality I want, but I have not been successful in getting "mobileCreateLocalNotification" to work. I went to a LC site to learn more abo...

LC Run Alert in Mobile environment in the background? - Solv

Can LiveCode run in a Mobile environment in the background?

I want to make an app that reminds me to do certain things at certain times and certain dates.
Can LC be used to do something like this?

Thanks,

Re: Field with "Focus with Keyboard" checked? - Not Yet Solv

Well........ The "Select Empty" took care of the blinking cursor in the Data box, but the keyboard on the IOS device still remains. I looked in the dictionary under keyboard, but did not find anything that would control the IOS keyboard. How do I force the IOS keyboard to shut down? Thanks, David

Re: Field with "Focus with Keyboard" checked?

Dixie and -hh,

The click at 0,0 works good in the IDE, but not with the IOS simulator.

The select "Empty" works well in both IDE and IOS simulator.

Thanks so much to both of you,
