Need help with "Pickers"

Post by DR White » Tue Aug 25, 2015 11:37 am

I had a "Picker that worked pretty good in LC ver 6, but it does not work in Ver 7.

Could someone refresh my mind on how to create a picker?

Thanks,

David

It is there waiting for you in the dictionary... :-)
mobilePick optionList, initialIndex [, optionList, initialIndex, ...] [, style ] [, button] [, view]

Dixie,

Thanks for your guidance.

I am currently working in an Android environment trying to use "mobilePick".
I have experimented with different combinations of options, cannot seem to understand how to set one up.

How do you limit the display to a certain number of items?
How do you limit the display to a certain size?
How do you control the size of text?

A simple example is always appreciated.

Thanks,

David

You can't. Mobile picker is an Android/iOS native picker.
Android decide it all.
