Palette stack on Android

Post by guylouis » Thu Mar 30, 2017 1:54 am

Hi,

Is it possible to open a stack as a palette on Androïd?

When I use topLevel stack "xxx" or Palette stack "xxx", the new stack overriides and has the dimension of the whole screen.

I want a little window, like on MacOs or Windows.

Thanks

Mobile OSes are generally single-window; they offer no support for multiple windows or window styles like palettes.

That said, you can make a group and drag that around on the card. See the grab command for an easy way to move things in response to drag events.

Many thanks for the solution with a group and grab. It works very nice!
