Donald Walker (In thread: {Say Your Wishes} Get Well Soon - David's Mom)

Hello David

Since it is Valentines day in the USA and I am guessing it is in Spain as well, we shall send a Valentines greeting here to you that you can share with your mom.

Happy Valentines Mom! We know David has you at the top of his list and that is where mom's should be. Glad to hear your surgery when welll and you are improving. All the best from the USA and Don in particular.


Donald Walker (In thread: How to install and be ready with Apache Cordova and the Android SDK)

Samuel

Let me encourage you to keep going as David said. I went through similar issues and David was eventually able to get me configured correctly. I will say this that it is worth the effort to get it working.

I know David is dealing with his mother in the hospital right now so he is a bit limited in his efforts and deservedly so. So we will all be patient. You might want to consider downloading teamviewer (free) as that will allow David to have access to your pc.

Sorry to let that cat out of the bag David but it is a bit of an install for some of us and you seem to have it figured out. Delete my message if I have said too much. :-)


Donald Walker (In thread: InputBox)

Well again I am humbled by my lack of error checking in my code. I should have looked at it in more detail.

But again you spot it and I thank you for that. You have the trained eyes of a programmer. I have the eyes of a .....Bat. :-|

All in jest of course. Thanks as always David. Yes it works fine. The Label1 does exist 3 views down the way but it works perfectly.


Donald Walker (In thread: InputBox)

I get this error message when trying to use the inputbox.

The [Label1] does not exist at this time in the app, it is in a later view.

What should I do here? use a Setvar to define the [Label1.Text]?

or

Start of Button3 Click event
InputBox "Enter Name or Nickname or Something Cutesie" "Apply|Cancel" "My Sweets" "info" "InputBoxCallback2"
End of Button3 Click event
Resolved "C:\AB\Apps.AB\Valentine1_Compiled\www\builder\views\inputBox.html"
Start of InputBoxCallback2 app function
If "[ButtonIndex]" "==" "1"
Setvar "[Label1.Text]" "[inputValue]" "String"
Error: "'inputValue' is undefined" - Line: 289 - Char: 13 - Code: 0 - Url: http://127.0.0.1:9998/app/scripts/app.js

Donald Walker (In thread: Icons)

Another thing maybe related. It appears I must delete compiled folder when selecting a new icon after I copy .ab file. Even after I select the icon again, it compiles with the default untless I delete the compiled folder and start build anew. Yes /No?


Donald Walker (In thread: Icons)

Thanks for that explanation.

My preference would be to leave the icon relative path as it is because I usually save an app versions to the same location.

Right now I "think" it just blanks the path when saving. not sure about that.

I guess the other option is to leave the none relative path.

Not fair for me to say because others may work differently. I am ok with it as long as I understnad.

Thanks


Donald Walker (In thread: Icons)

Something I am observing and I thought I would pass on is that if I have an icon associated with an app and then save the app with a different name the saved icon path disappears. This is the icon in the app options.

If I recompile the app it now goes to the default icon.

There may be more to this than I am aware so I will leave it at that.


Donald Walker (In thread: Connection Variable)

Is there a variable or control or ? that will tell me if user has wifi or 3G/4G connection?

What I am looking for specifically is:

If I am using a remote server image and there is no connection, I would like to default to an image that is stored with the apk file.

What would be best way to do this?

Thanks


Donald Walker (In thread: IOS Apps, how to get them on the devices)

Edunt: Did you mean "no a bad idea" or "Not a bad idea" ? :-)

So you have to define a "Company", and what makes you one with Apple. Maybe they want a TaxID etc. I will look into it.

The option 2 in your link David would be useful. It would allow Testing on upto 100 phones. You have to have the phone id to make that happen.

I'll sleep (much later of course) on this a bit and see what pops up.

And while I am thinking of it. You have a sample app that gives phone info. I don't think it gives the IMEI number. There is another number but I don't think it is the IMEI. Any thoughts and if possible.

The IMEI or MEID number for your mobile phone acts as a unique identifier for that device.


Donald Walker (In thread: IOS Apps, how to get them on the devices)

I am having an odd thought and maybe we can discuss here:

Given the cost factor and hassel for getting Apple apps to store etc, I am wondering if there does not exist a sort of communal account of some sorts? Something like a company account that would allow all employees to load apps etc.

So what I am saying is perhaps we could have a AppBuilder account that could be used by all here that might want to. I don't know if such a thing is possible or allowed but just raising the question and possibility.

I am not suggesting David do anything like this but if such is possible and useable and benefiical then perhaps I would consider such a thing. Those who would want to use such a thing could pay a small fee for the use etc. Nothing for profit of course,

Just a thought,,,,

Edunt

Sure send me info, all is appreciated.

David

Good info and thanks Jordi


Donald Walker (In thread: My First App Build With AB)

Hello Edunt

I downloaded and put on my phone. I also by mistake tried to download it from the link here.
First I am assuming it is an Android app. I think that is all that you can get from he play store.

When I tried to use the above link from wndows, I got a bunch of Samsung devices to download it to, Not sure why that would be as I don;t have any Samsung devices. So I just did not download.

Then I used my Motorola based Android phone and installed it,
It install fine but when I pushed the player I did not get any sound. I checked my sound level and it was high. I have downloaded AB media player in my app and the player works fine.

Not sure what it all means but am just passing along,

PS I have Swedish ancestors so many I need to know Finnish if I get lost and end up there. :-0

Donald Walker (In thread: IOS Apps, how to get them on the devices)

That is indeed great news. Now all I need is a MAC. But if I am going to do anything with IOS then I guess it would be a good thing to have. What opp system for IOS is minimum to have or does it matter?


Donald Walker (In thread: Arrays to Variables)

Excellent David. That is very useful info. Thanks


Donald Walker (In thread: Arrays to Variables)

Most of the selector controls if not all of them use the array protocal to store the list. I think I need some clarification on how to use these items.

I think I understand how to get the list into the array and also get them out using the GetOptions (I think). But what to do with them at that point?

Can you show some code that would take me from getting my selected item in a dropdown control all the way to where it is stored as a variable that I can use. I may be making a lot more of this than it is but would like to see the right way to do it.

Also the Index, what is that all about and what is correct configuration if it is required.

:-) It is always something hey David?
