@ Brain "Gee, why didn't I think of that!" Not calling as substack; I use this as navigation between mainstack (the splash screen and that has the stack files is always open but hidden) command portal_GoStack cardOrStackObject # save where we are coming from locally put the short name of this stack into oStackName [snip] # Attempt to fix Android by dealing with mobile controls # and Accelereated Rendering from here # We deal with the each stack case if oStackName <> empty then # this is not the first run boot of portal deleteAllMobileControls # will destroy all except audioPlayer end if --> Variations on stack transition methods. --> timing is important, else android crashes set the acceleratedRendering of stack oStackName to false go cardOrStackObject # e.g go "gems" (or this string) go card 3 of "gems" wait 20 milliseconds with messages close stack oStackName wait 20 milliseconds with messages ## this does not work! --> ## go to cardOrStackObject in window oStackName end portal_GoStack So, since the whole app is running I could get the screenrect when the "portal" (index, TOC of the whole app) loads. And save to a local in main lib_SIvaSiva.livecodescript (always open) but still, I don't think screenRect will register in LC RAM *without* running "resizestack" so how would I force that? (thinking out loud) just running a handler to check may suffice to get the coords of the phone. local sMobileRect ... send "mobileRectSet" to me in 1 second end portal_GoStack command mobileRectSet put the screenRect into sMobileRect end mobileRectSet function mobileRectGet return sMobileRect end mobileRectGet I will try it @ Ralph Wow! That is quite a hack. I may try it. If the above does not work. BR On 8/29/18 10:09 AM, Brian Milby via use-livecode wrote: Aren't you calling this as a sub-stack? If so, could you capture the screen rect before the switch and pass in the data or cache to the file system and read it in? _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
