Android Question How to run the PDFWriter sample app

[wdegler]

I would like to run the sample given by the author of the PDFWriter library. I obtained the needed files to compile it but I don't have the required designer .bal file to run it. Can someone let me know how to get the .bal file?

i guess your using the sample code here
you dont need the .bal file
1. remove this line

Activity.LoadLayout("Main.bal")

2. initialize then add the label view in at runtime

Thank you for your response, Ronell.

The LoadLayout Line is removed and Label1 is initialized and added to Activity.
I am attaching the zip file with my 6 additional lines following the comment 'I added these:'.
When I compile and run now, it shows my label but nothing else happens.
Do you see anything that explains this?

did you see the menus? in the activity title bar

 

[wdegler]

No menus seen.
Could my old Android version 2.2 API level 8 be a problem?

[wdegler]

I include the zip now.

 

[ronell]

its working fine on my device,

can you post a screenshot that shows the problem?

 

[wdegler]

Thank you for your screenshot. Now I know what it should look like.

Here is my screenshot using the same code I sent you.

not sure but i think this thread might solve the issue https://www.b4x.cm/android/forum/threads/3-dot-menu-problem-on-actionbar-with-sliding-pages.39155/

another way is to add three button for the 3 events .( Make, Save, Show),

This link you show here is not working for me. I am dealing with other matters now; I'll come back to this problem later. Thanks for your attention to this matter.
