Android Question WYSIWYG designer

[Peter Augustin]

Hello,

I downloaded the Bluetooth project http://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/android-bluetooth-bluetoothadmin-tutorial.14768/ but I do not understand why i see nothing in the Abstract designer. Where are buttons, textbox ?

Did you open any of the 2 layouts?

Super, thanks. I did not know that there are 2 layouts. Sorry. I am begginer.

Hello NJDude, I also have the same question regarding the "Abstract Designer" (in the Bluetooth project). I have my device plugged in and the status is "Connected". Under 'Layout' in the Abstract Designer, I see 20 layouts. Please clarify for me what you mean by (and where do I find) "any of the 2 layouts". Thanks much.

Hello MonDrew,

Please forgive me if I reply too simply. I am opened to provide more information.

About your question : You are probably seeing Views. A layout is a "interface file". You open layouts from the Designer using the "File" menu and after that "Open". Or directly with one of the shortcuts in the bottom of the "File" menu.

And in the bottom right part of the designer you see "Layout Variants" : layouts used with different screen sizes.

In the Abstract Designer "Layout" menu, you see common variants
