David,

I TOTALLY appreciate your help. Please know that I feel your support is excellent.

Is there a way to initiate a browser in the detail scene? If it runs in a browser, then it should work, right?

If not, how would I utilize the clipboard control on the detail scene?

As an HTML5 site on a phone, it works 100%. You long press the image and a menu comes up. SHARE is one of the options.

As a cordova app, this goes away. You cannot SHARE and no menu comes up.

I need to share the emoji with whatever apps allow sharing.

How can I accomplish this? I need to finish this ASAP.

Would you be able to help using that 1st Cordova plugin (the file sharing one) you linked to?

Could you add that to app builder and show me how to utilize it?

In the end, no matter how I do it, whether it be a html report, a image control - I don't really care what - I need, in the end, the user to be able to share or copy and paste, the image into another app on their phone.

How can I get this done - today if possible?

Mike

It seems that this may be what I need:

What do you think? Is this something available in app builder?

I got this from here:

I just sent you an email through here with a link to the debug app.

Mike

OK. I see.

I was able to make a debug apk with no problem.

The only real problem I am having now is that when I run the app in Android after installing it, the app works fine, but the important image is not clickable in the HTML. I added a blank then the image.

The result works in windows when I test but DOES NOT WORK in Android as a Cordova app.

How can I make the image clickable in Android?

Mike

OK, so I followed the guide listed here for Cordova. I have everything installed and all have version numbers, so they work. The Android adb is running and I followed all directions on what to install.

So, now what do i do?

Which .bat to I run?

I have three to choose from - debug, release and run.

I just need some hand holding getting my first app builder app to become a Android apk file.

Does App Builder sign them? What about the password protection I read about in the Android Studio apk guide?

I could not install Android Studio - the download kept failing. I did download and install the Android SDK, however.

Thank you.

Mike

As the subject states, I have an app that has a top logo. Either I create multiple versions for multiple breakpoints or I simply left justify the logo and not have it stretch.

What is the best way to do this for a responsive app?

Can you set breakpoints in app builder?

Mike

That worked perfectly with the select control.

I've got this app licked.

Mike

I have four checkboxes that stand for 16x16, 32x32, 64x64 and 128x128

I have a report with HTML that loads in images to be chosen.

I use the height and width variables in the tag to define the graphics size.

I want to be able for the user to choose one (and only one) checkbox and then when the graphic is clicked, a second screen comes up (from the Report3 sample) and loads in the graphic. It is there I would like the height and width to match the checked box.

I already have all this working EXCEPT for the checkbox to tag height and width.

Here is the HTML I am using:

In other programming languages, I would define the variable and then have the tag be

I also get that I would likely need an if/then statement somewhere.

If chkSizeBoxing16=1 then x="16"
If chkSizeBoxing32=1 then x="32"
If chkSizeBoxing64=1 then x="64"
If chkSizeBoxing128=1 then x="128"

I'm just not sure how to do this with app builder.

I also am not sure how to make sure the person ONLY checks one of the four choices. I would have done a dropdown but I do not like how it was looking.

Thank you for your help.

Mike

David,

Found the code for the iframe.

However, this SHOULD work but does not.

The two drop downs are emojiSelect and sizeSelect

The iframe is called iframeEmoji

Misc is one of the dropdown choices and 16x16 is one of the dropdown choices.

The iframe URL seems correct.

What is wrong? When I run the app in the debugger, I can select stuff but if I choose Misc and 16x16 nothing shows.

Mike

I'm sorry. I forgot to mention that it needs to go into a iframe control.

Mike

I am confused as to which command will allow me to simply navigate to a web page.

HTTPExcute?

HTTPSetURL?

Mike

I emailed you. I will upload my project to my server for you to download.

Mike

Hmmm. I used the report3 sample and simply loaded in my graphics and then used notepad++ to edit the .json file to read my graphics.

The rest is the exact sample - unchanged.

Any thoughts?

How do you save your .json files? Is it just like an .xml file or do you have to use a very particular program to write a .json file. I've heard of JSON but never heard of a .json file.

Mike

I tried to retrofit the report sample 3 to work with my images and all it does is say loading (as per the "loading" parameter).

Everything seems to match up (file names are correct), json file seems correct???

What have I done wrong? I sent you the file.
