Sorry, I am on windows. I have an android tablet connected by USB, in debugging mode.
Yes, I'm on Windows (7) as well with a Kindle Fire connected via USB.
I see the Fire comes with a native pdf reader, do you have one installed?
The code in the stack I posted is not really finished, put this into the field script;
Code: Select all
on mouseUp
--Check if the file is there
if there is not a file (specialFolderPath("documents") & "/" & the selectedText of me) then
--Copy the file from the engine to the documents folder
put url ("binfile:" & specialFolderPath("engine") & "/" & the selectedText of me) into url("binfile:" & specialFolderPath("documents") & "/" & the selectedText of me)
launch url ("file://" & specialFolderPath("documents") & "/" & the selectedText of me)
else -- just launch the document
--Mobile didn't like trying to run the video from the engine folder
launch url ("file://" & specialFolderPath("documents") & "/" & the selectedText of me)
end if
end mouseUpSimon
