Strange behaviour of LC-"Menues"on Android

Post by Liobas » Thu Sep 01, 2016 10:24 am

I am new to LC, but an experienced user and hobby programmer. It is a great development tool, but I can´t see what I am doing wrong.

I am using LC 8.0.2 on Win7 PC, JDK1.8, SDK r24.4.1(Android 4.03(API15) installed. My Phone is an original Samsung Galaxy A5 with original Android 5.02. I am able to send the compiled files to my phone. So far there is no problem.
But when I try to use the simpliest Menues without any changes, the objects doent work correctly on my phone (not on LC or as WIN-exe).
I have added Screenshots of my phone to show you, what happens:
Card with Option-Menue, Pulldown-Menue and a ComboBox.
When I touch the Option-Menue, nothing happens.
When I click on the Pull-Down-Menue, the choice is displayed, but in the left upper corner!!!
The same with the ComboBox. Look at the screenshots.
Please help.

Hi Liobas,

1. welcome to the forum! :D

2. "menu" buttons are not supported on mobile!
Use "mobilepick" instead on the mobile platform.


Best

Klaus
