Hello to all,

**Note: Avoid littering the forum with too many post on "Please help me!", because it takes alot of time for David to clear it up.

Thanks edunt. Certainly it's good to try to maintain the forum well maintained and we can help a lot in this, for example, using descriptive posts' titles, try to describe our questions in details in order to give the best help as possible, etc.

I am sorry because I did not read this thread until today, but anyway I did not understand the question. The title "Please help for my thesis i cant build my app" doesn't means nothing. Posts like "Masters please help i cant build my project app in app builder smile help please build my app" doesn't means nothing. And posts like "Heeelp please, who knows how to create app that can count steps" also doesn't means nothing to me.

I appreciate your interest in App Builder, Aldrin, but you must try to ask for help in other way:

1º Try to made your posts' titles more descriptives

2º Try to be specific with your problem. "I need an app" doesn't means nothing.

3º Try to be also descriptive with your problem: what you do, what you get, what you expected, etc.

4º Do not post the same thing twice: with one post is enough.

Hello edunt,

That's apparently a temporal problem (probably related with the SSL certificate) since they don't appear right now here. Anyway thanks for the report. Maybe you can continue having the problem? If so, please, tell me in order to ask for help to my hosting provider!

Hi to all!

Problem solve now in 2017.12 version.Thanks David.

You're welcome tin! :)

Hello to all,

I am very sorry. Certainly I leave a bug in the latest release, that causes the FontAwesome font can't be registered in the rigth way. Then please, tin, Samuel and others, upgrade your AB copies and let me know if the Icons' Picker dialog is working now or if some problem still occurring.

Again sorry any possible inconveniences guys!

Hello to all,

I still have the same problem David.I already try your download link.
So can you explain how to fix this font manually? (maybe it not fix for me because privileges access in my window user)

Sorry te inconveniences tin. In fact we no need to install the fonts manually: App Builder register the fonts privatelly using the appropiate Windows' API. This can be done without require any special nor admin privileges.

Please, try this: close App Builder (if running) and uninstall the program from the Windows's control panel. Then download the latest App Builder release and install it normally.

If you continue having problems, please, tell me in order to try to help you.

Hello!

Well done! Thanks a lot Sir David :D

You're welcome sir! :)

Hello Samuel,

It's done! I just forget something...

Update your AB copy: this time you must do it manually!

Hello Samuel,

Hello David,
I can't see all the icons. I tried to restart the computer and AB without success

Thanks

Yes; certainly some of the Awesome icons appear hidden here too. I am not sure what happend, since the appropiate Windows's API function to register the font appear to work as expected, that is, doesn't return any error. I must investigate this a bit Samuel and will inform here about. Sorry for the inconveniences!

P.S. As a tip... if you pass the cursor over the icons (even the hidden ones) their names appear in an small tip, and, in fact, that icons can be used in the application, that is, the problem is only related with the Icons' picker dialog.

Hello Edunt,

Hello,

Hi David,
It would be nice to have sample project on file transfer plugin in AB. Because this will make it more powerful and additional feature.

I have not time right now, but maybe I can prepare some sample when have some opportunity. But please, ask me this question: are you thinked in some specific kind of files edunt?

Yes, I have specific file. For example: I want client to download *.apk file and install the file their devices, whenever update is available. But I don't want them to use playstore.

The only two ways they can download the file are through playstore and using web browser. Which I don't want them to use it.

How can this be achieveable?

I think there is not easy to download an APK file and then run it: first of all, not all the devices are ready to install applications' APK files, since they must use the different stores. If we avoid this maybe we enters in other problems, because, probably installing an application from another is not the expected behaviour, so may the sytem can say something about.

Anyway, if you want to distribute your applications out of the stores (which is possible and to me acceptable after all) in my opinion you no need to download any APK file, but just look if any new application's release is available. You know that, if we install the application from an store, the store itself is responsible to maintain the application update, based in the app's ID.

Since we can't use the store's updater we may wanted to prepare one for our application (your own case) but to do this maybe its sufficient to check if a new application release exists, and, if exists, just let the user to download and install the new application release. At this point we may use the "OpenWindow" action using the new APK release URL.

Or maybe we can use the "OpenWindow" action to redirect the user to the appropiate website from the new application release can be downloaded. In few words (and this is what I do in your case) we must to check if a new release of the application exists (this is quite easy using an HttpClient control) and then inform the user in order to download and install the new release by itself.

P.S. Certainly, with the help of the Cordova's Files and FileTransfer plugins, maybe it's possible to download an APK (we can download any kind of file in principle) and maybe it's possible to execute it. If you continue wanted something like that, Edunt, I only can refer you to the plugin's documentation, then you can try to implement it. If you have any question or need help during the implementation, please, don't hesitate to post it here or better in a new forum's thread.

Hello Eduardo,

Hello David,

As usually, thank you for your great support!!!
It is working so good!!! ;-D Now, the MediaPlayer hides all the "controls".
I will try in a real device very soon, I will tell you!

Thank you so much again.

Eduardo.

Glad to know you got it! Maybe I can add the "AllowInlineMediaPlayback" (as well others...) into the app's Options -> Cordova -> iOS tab. But for now certainly we can use the app's Options -> Cordova -> Configuration to add this kind of stuff.

Please, let me know if you have any other questions!

Hello Eduardo,

If you can try (at least one time) with a real device, please, do it. In order to try to solve the player issue, please, try to place the below line in the app's Options -> Cordova -> Configuration.

About the "errors", they appear only "warnings" but anyway I can't read it very well. You can try to build the application instead of just debug/compile it, then they do not include any debug information, and probably mitigates some of the refered "warnings".

To build the application use the Meu -> Run -> Build.

Please, try with the above and tell me what happend!

Hello Samuel,

Yes; you got it. The header and footer must be placed in TD tag(s) if we are using a Report's with the Wrapper variable set to "table". If we set the Wrapper variable to "grid" we no need the TD tag(s) at all.

Hello Samuel,

Are you tried with the "Report10" sample? I appreciate your code, but, I am not sure if they are copied from the output HTML, which in fact is generated in runtime, then, may doesn't corresponde with what you place in the Report control. Can you please provide here a little application sample to reproduce the problem?

Hello to all,

Is this not a good use of localstorage function

ie. localStorage.setItem('CurrentSong', this.src);

And when no internet connection is found, the last song is played?

App Builder have the SetOption and GetOption actions, which relies in the app's local storage. However the local storage have some limitations around 3/5 MB (in my knowledge) and this maybe can't be sufficient to store files.

Running it from windows, I do not get a device.type, device.vendor or device.model.
all the others a filled in.

And running it in a table?
