Sandeep Android Fan Posts: 1260 Reg: Feb 01, 2012 Miraj, India 25,250	08/15/12 10:15 AM (13 years ago) The older version of BT came with default set of icons which were max sized at 25x25 and not more than that. I have not included any images other than the default icons for tab. Try playing around with different sizes, you might find out what max size of an image can fit properly on tab.

Sandeep Android Fan Posts: 1260 Reg: Feb 01, 2012 Miraj, India 25,250	08/15/12 10:27 AM (13 years ago) Sort of. When the app launches it attempts to "report" to this URL. The primary purpose of this URL is to check for content updates. If updates are found end-users will be prompted to "refresh." Leave this Report to Cloud URL blank if you don't want to check for updates. Comments Sort of. When the app launches it attempts to "report" to this URL.

Are you creating project for android or ios? In case you are creating android project, try custom url screen plugin and host your pdf files somewhere like your server or dropbox and link them with the custom url.
