Mobile options menu problem LC9

LC 9.0.0 DP8 Using an options menu used to bring up the mobile options menu normally and worked well. However I've noticed in LC9 that selecting the last item in the menu does not update the options menu label correctly - it remains blank. Has anyone else seen this and is there a solution?

Inclusions list

We're getting enough inclusions now that I'm thinking we need some kind of custom organization. I thought I'd throw this out to the list for ideas. The list is currently semi-sorted by type: libraries, databases, widgets, etc. Sometimes I don't know what type I'm looking for, and sometimes

Hi Jacque, Unfortunately we tried to get the android native field widget into DP 8 at the very last minute, but discovered that it crashes when it becomes focused. We will of course try to fix this issue as soon as possible. So I would suggest you wait until 9.0 DP-9 before you use the android

Android field widget

I'm very interested in the Android field widget but my initial attempt isn't working very well. Is there anything special I need to do? What I am seeing is: Text content saved in the widget with the stack doesn't display on a mobile device; is this not a persistent property? Do we need to

Re: Amazon S3 lib for Android and iOS?

Hi all, Indeed, a AWS S3 script library was added on Indy and Business editions of LC 9.0 DP-8. Unfortunately the docs for that library were not extracted in the 9.0 DP-8 Dictionary (this required an extra step since the dictionary entries had to be extracted from a password protected stack).

Klaus, i just checked the inclusions in standalone application builder in LC9 DP8 again. There is an entry for mergAWS and also an other entry for “Amazon Web Services” right after Remote Debugger. In LC 8.1.6 this is not listed. So it seems there is now support for AWS in DP8 for all
