Modified: scroll widget for a group

put the scroll back ground and the items in a group.

Please notice the @1x checkbox. It is because of display.contentWidth. If it is unchecked, it is treated as @4x coordinate ( unchecked you need to put display.contentWidth*4 = 1920 = 480*4)

manual checkbox to use the values from the text boxes. If empty, the default values are used.

Either disable the horizontal movement or the vertical movement

P.S. Instead of display.contentWidth/Height, display.viewableContentWidth/Height would work for different sizes of devices.

OK, the listener was an anonymous function. let’s give it a function name to remove it later

local myListener = function(event)
   print(“event.text”)
end

-- Remove
Runtime:addEventListener( “myEvent”, myListener)

-- Add
Runtime:removeEventListener( “myEvent”, myListener)

I can show how to add an external code to each image of navigation panel. Maybe dispatching an action instead of jumping to a page.

Is this something you want? If not, email me a psd file to clarify GUI.

This is a major bug. I have just fixed it and updated Kwik.

4.3.2 tmplt 2020.0005
FIX:tmplt layer_drag.lua triggering action on release
FIX:Kwik panel. copy & paste

Thank you for reporting the issue.

[Yamamoto]

Fixed. The codes of no lock and locked are swapped. It will be migrated into the next build of Kwik

https://github.com/kwiksher/kwik4tmplt/blob/master/components/pageXXX/layer_drag.lua

Thank you for the bug report.

myListener.lua in the page’s external code

—
Runtime:addEventListener( “myEvent”, function(event)
print(“event.text”)
end)
—

myDispatcher.lua in the button of overlay

—
Runtime:dispatchEvent({ name=”myEvent”, text=”Changed By dispatchEvent” })
—

Alternatively use a global varibale set with Kwik

myListener.lua in the page’ external code

—
Runtime:addEventListener( “enterFrame”, function(event)
print(_K.myVar)
end)
—

myDispatcher.lua in the button of overlay

—
_K.myVar = “Changed From Overlay”
—

For instance, in an external code, you can access a displayObject with layer.YOUR_LAYER_NAME

  
   if _K.myVar == "Blue" then
      layer.YOUR_LAYER_NAME:setFillColor(0, 0, 1) -- R, G, B
   end

You can get a value from Overlay to set it to the function.

A global variable or dispatching an event to the page will work to interact from the overlay page. I will check the behavior today.

I have fixed the bug. Please download the following files from the gitHub. I will include these files to the build of Kwik tomorrow.

– tmplt/commands/kwik/canvasAction.lua
– tmplt/components/pageXXX/layer_canvas.lua
https://github.com/kwiksher/kwik4tmplt/blob/master/commands/kwik/canvasAction.lua

https://github.com/kwiksher/kwik4tmplt/blob/master/components/pageXXX/layer_canvas.lua

[Yamamoto]

I will review the code of Kwik why ‘undone’ could become a nil til tomorrow.

[Yamamoto]

Thank you for the information. I will remove it from build.settings

>comment out the nativeShowAlert from the page_screenshot_.lua so that no alert will pop up

That’s good workaround. I will revise actionX.lua in gitHub. It is not yet migrated into Kwik.

I found it in Corona source code not handle an error when saving an image to PhotosAlbum

UIImageWriteToSavedPhotosAlbum( image, nil, nil, nil )

Also the following discussion about a plugin to use UIImageWriteToSavedPhotosAlbum. The plugin code looks good.

https://forums.coronalabs.com/topic/58195-uiimagewritetosavedphotosalbum-unable-to-callback-to-lua/

I could use to make a saving screenshot plugin for Kwik or modify directory Corona source. Either way, it takes some time.

Looking at the mac error. It seems reading the manual entry instead of the spritesheet lua generated from Texture packer.

I extracted the spritesheet info from the win code above and pasted it into a new file on Mac. and it worked without an error.

Can I have .kwk file of Mac? I would like to check the path of texture packer file in it.

      
    <replacement id="Rectangle_1">
        <name>Rectangle_1</name>
        <type>Sprite Sheet</type>
        <layer>Rectangle_1</layer>
        <file>~/Documents/Kwik/SpriteTest/eye.png</file>
        <frameWidth>128</frameWidth>
        <frameHeight>128</frameHeight>
        <externalFile>~/Documents/Kwik/SpriteTest/sprite_info.lua</externalFile>
        <exporter>TexturePacker</exporter>

page_screenshot.lua is updated

Wrong: media.photoLibrary
Correct: media.PhotoLibrary

I tested it with iPad but the result is not changed. media.hasSource(media.PhotoLibrary) always return true. There is no way to check user rejected the permission request. Nor no method to know the screenshot file is saved or not.

I will look into Corona’s runtime source codes.

[Yamamoto]

https://forums.coronalabs.com/topic/66741-ios-permissions-how-do-i-know-if-mediasave-failed/?p=345887

The first time you run an app after a fresh install, media.hasSource( media.PhotoLibrary ) would always return true. This is by design as iOS permissions have a “not determined” state that they’re initialized to when an app is run the first time.

By returning true that first time, your Lua app could continue to whatever behavior needs permission, and the OS can request that permission when necessary.
