2 MobGui or Not 2 MobGui... that is the question!

Hello, In defense of us newbies... I'm finding it challenging to know when and how to use LC scripts to work with/enhance features I'm trying to use with MobGui.

Native Scrollbar Autohide?

Hello, I've been playing with native scrollbars. I've noticed that they don't show up until touched or swiped and then they autohide. How do I get them to show up and stay up to give the user an intuitive clue that there is more text to scroll to? I've done them with and without MobGui (and with the...

Re: hiding/showing a browser

I put in the button: on mouseUp goKillBrowser end mouseUp And back on the card script: on goKillBrowser  if the environment is not "mobile" then         exit goKillBrowser     end if     mobileControlDele...

weird navigation issue

I have one card in my stack that wherever you touch/click on the screen, takes you back to the previous card. What would cause the entire screen to become clickable?

Progress Scrollbar

Hello - I'm trying to make a progress scrollbar go for 4 seconds and then show a Start button. The thumbPos goes to 40 then stops and in 4 seconds the Start button shows but with no visual effect.

put "Home" into fld "mgcLabel"
end opencard
