Oh man, I just found that out as well. Thank you.
So, I changed it like so:
type alias AppState =
{ mdl : Material.Model
, viewSelected : Int
, ...
, titleEditable : Bool
, refreshEditorContent : Bool
}
type alias Flags =
{ viewSelected : Int
, ...
, titleEditable : Bool
, refreshEditorContent : Bool
}
init : Flags -> ( AppState, Cmd Msg )
init flags =
( defaultOrFromFlags flags, Layout.sub0 Mdl )
Thanks again!
