Hi All,
I'm having a go at developing for the Android platform, and doing this
on WinXP, using LC v4.6.2.
I've gone thru the "Hello World" lesson on the runrev site - it worked
fine in the IDE and emulator.
Now as I continue the discovery period, I'm trying to find which
controls work on Android.
As in the lesson above the button and answer dialog work.
I've created a new stack with an option button and a scrolling field.
The idea is to load data into the field based on a selection from the
option button.
In the option button, I created a menuPick script and tested it on the
Android emulator. The script wouldn't fire.
I then changed to a mouseUp script in the button and that didn't fire
either.
The button script is simple:
on menuPick pSelection
answer pSelection
end menuPick
I put the same script into a "on mouseUp" in the option button.
All this works in the IDE, but not on the Android emulator.
So my question is: how many are finding these stumble blocks and where
can I find more lessons/examples of how all this works.
Run Rev lessons are lacking in this area.

Mark Stuart
