Adding screens Manually

Hi, is it possible to add a couple if screens into a buzztouch app manually through Xcode, and have them linked to done buzztouch made screens? If so how can this be done by a beginner. Thanks, Jeremy

You can copy and paste some valid JSON into Xcode's copy of BT_config.txt if you know what you're doing. But if that config.txt has a dataURL, the app will overwrite the bundled config with the control panel version. Another possibility is to use the JSON Snippet Keeper plugin to manually create/add screens to the control panel, which will resolve the above issue. Hope that helps. I'll be glad to elaborate depending on your needs. -Chris

Hi Chris, Im actually just up to the JSON part in the iOS Buzztouch U. Seems rough. Basically im just after 3 screens that i cant get from buzztouch plugins, the first being a screen that has a few fields the user fills in, the second a list of files with that data that the user has inputted and the third being the open file. Thanks, Jeremy

Ah. I misunderstood you. What you'll want to do is create a few custom plugins (private), to use in your app. Doing this requires either a knowledge of programming, or finding the right person to do the programming for you. Good luck, and keep us posted with your success!

Sorry, i worded it pretty poorly. I believe Chris1 is waiting for a plugin he developed that serves the purpose I need it for to be approved. Will let you know how it goes, Thanks for your help. Jeremy
