Android Question Floating button

[Shivito1]

Trying to use Floating button. I followed this Thread: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/sd-floating-button-standout.80847/#content

The example runs fine.
When I add it to my program I get the following error:

I dont see the uses permission line!?

 

[Shivito1]

I dont see the uses permission line!?

??? Is that something that should be in there?

 

[Shivito1]

I dont see the uses permission line!?

Okay I have added this
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW"/>

 

[Shivito1]

I dont see the uses permission line!?

O_O
I freaking love you right now. Thank you very much that did the trick.

 

[Shivito1]

I dont see the uses permission line!?

By the way did I miss something obvious? how did you know I should look at the manifest?

 

[DonManfred]

Thank you very much that did the trick.

It was the reason of the error you got... If you ust googled for it then you would have found that this line is MANDATORY for such apps...

 

[DonManfred]

how did you know I should look at the manifest?

If something is working in the example but not in my app then i compare BOTH Codes and in the manifest you should have found a difference.

Thank you. I will work on my Goofoo

 

[DonManfred]

then i compare BOTH Codes

in this case here i just downloaded the example zip, open it with winrar and had a look at the B4A file in Notepad++....
Here i saw the uses line and my first thought was; DID HE changed his manifest accordingly???
Then i asked for the manifest-text (see above)
