android field backgroundColor and forgroundColor

Post by larrylitton » Thu Feb 13, 2014 11:04 pm

I have an Android app, need to allow the user to change the text color and the backgroundColor. I can set alignment, font size, etc but I can not change any colors! Anyone having the same problem?

Hi from France
Using "put the backColor of char 5 to 20 of fld 1 into fld 2" crashes my android 2.3.4 standalone app generated from LiveCode 7.1. :cry:
Is there any solution to use backColor (get or set) for a field chunk?
Thanks for help
Regards from Jean-Marc

Reported already here :

Add comments or examples to that report rather than starting a new one. It will be easier on the team.
