How do you approach mobile scrolling for iOS and Android? It is such a common thing on all mobile devices to use the finger to scroll up and down a list view. I've found one post from 2013 regarding scrolling, but it doesn't easily answer my questions about scrolling. I am finding that LC seems to g...

Hi @Redfield, As one lC newbie to another, arrays and multidimensional arrays can be an adventure for a new user. Bogs was not steering you wrong when he said, The best slice of text I've ever seen about arrays is this one at BYU. Adding my very limited noob voice to those experts who have already a...

I'm probably not answering what you would like to do, but would this lesson help?

Thanks @Bogs,

I'll look at the Browser object/widget in more detail...

So many objects. So little time.

Think of it as a quick cheat (but maybe not the best cheat ) OK @Bogs, I'll bite. What is a better way to insert an image into a scrolling field than using "image source"? I'm relieved that there is an option for this in LC, but trying to insert these photos at the proper char/line is a challenge. ...

Thanks for the reply Al. @capellan That is interesting about the LC engine. I'm actually looking at text justification to go with iOS and Android. I like the look of it in my App's description area. Just seems cleaner for my purposes. I guess, for now, I'll just go with the ragged edges. I'm really ...

True text justification has been a requested feature since at least 2014. (I saw one dead link that related to 2007) https://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=20228&p=102518&hilit=text+justification#p102517 I've tried using HTML5 and an inline style for text justification. That doesn't seem to...

@Bogs, imageSource is "the bee's knees"! Thanks for pointing it out. It allows me to insert the photos into my descriptive text in a scrolling field. Happy Dancing here. :mrgreen: Hey, I can even style the images to be centered or right aligned. BOY, did this all take some study. This the simplest p...

Be aware that as of March, 2019, Apple will only accept apps that are now being made with Xcode 10.1. The newest version of LC will compile to that version.
iOS 12.1 SDK is included in Xcode 10.1

HTHs,

I'd be curious to see what you mean by this. Screen shot?

@Bogs,
Like this:
Not sure what you mean about the icon folder. I'll try to see if I can nose around and find it.

Please consider adding the following options to LC Header Bar and Navigation Bar icon area: 1. Ability to search the icons that are in the popup folder. ie. Type in 'home' and all icons with home are shown. Most IDEs have this ability now. 2. Ability to add icons to the icon selections. For example,...

Wish I could go. I'd love to meet some of you and maybe some genius could turn me into a LC coder.

For those of you who get to attend, have a wonderful time and learn a lot.

@Bogs,

Hmmm. I sent you quite a lot of feedback. Not sure why you didn't receive it. I never heard a "peep" back.

@jacque Thank you again for your knowledgeable help. I may have gotten confused by the example shown in the datagrid form lesson. It emulates the typical iOS list with thumbnails. That made me think that I should use the datagrid for iOS list views. I have to use a tableview/listview to rebuild my a...

Hi @Terry, Thanks for the links and the thoughtful comments. I've been off the grid for a few days. I'll check out some of the links that you took the time to write up. Oh, and, yes, you are so right about the datagrid. Loved the way you phrased it. The first time I tried LC in 2016, I jumped right ...
