Information Lists iOS

Hi All! Very new to designing apps - watched the videos and have the home menu part down but can't for the life of me figure out where to setup the information that goes with each menu item. ??? It will be text only info - i.e. menu item one will go to an alphabetical list that the user can then select a specific item A that will open to info regarding that item selected. Any help, suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Hi G B Barker, Welcome to Buzztouch! All the options for configuring your app can be found in the control panel for that particular app. In this case, it sounds like you want to create a List Menu that contains a list of items that, when the user taps on an item, bring them to another screen which displays the information. Correct? That being the case, first thing you want to do is create a List Menu screen. You can do that from the 'Screens and Menus' portion of the Control Panel. There you are given the option of creating the menu items, each of which link to a new screen. You need to decide what sort of screen will contain the information you want to present. You'll see there are many options, from custom HTML to PDF to Word...quite a few choices! So, all you need to do is build your list and link to those screens. Then for each of those screens, you provide the required information that will display what you want it to. Does that make sense? If you're still confused, let us know exactly what sort of info you want to present, and we'll try and walk you through it. We'll also assume v1.5 unless you say otherwise. Thanks! Mark

Thank you Mark! That's exactly what I was looking for - I scrapped my mess of screens and started fresh. Very excited to be able to move forward!
