Hi, Is there a way to get data (txt,csv,json) from local (BT_Doc) instead of URL in the Screen Data URL for Local Map coordinates? I have a lot of data (100-10 000) and don't want to put on the web server it is better to put in the local BT_Doc to get it from there is much faster. Any idea?

In your MapScreen control panel, just list the local file as the 'dataURL'. Cheers! -- Smug Comments You should be able to add it to your project the same way you add images and stuff...

If you can decipher this code (for the quiz) it should almost exactly apply to the map plugin. http://idevdepot.com/update-load-local-data-in-a-quiz-for-bt2-0/ or if you want, just replace your entire 'loadData' method with this one: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/115208762/loadData.txt Hope this helps!
