Superb, thanks, working now.

Hi,

I'd like to lock a view to portrait on the iPhone, and the code below doesn't work to do that, for me.

So just to clarify:

view.present(orientations = ['portrait'])

no longer works?

What's the preferred way to lock orientation now? Will the documentation get updated? Once the suggestion above has detected the orientation, how can you lock a Navigation Controller to the correct orientation?

Thanks!

import ui

global FRAME_WIDTH
global FRAME_HEIGHT
message = 'Blah'

def scrollview(message):
  sv = ui.ScrollView() 
  sv.background_color = 'blue'
  FRAME_WIDTH = ui.get_screen_size().width - 2
  FRAME_HEIGHT = ui.get_screen_size().height - 66 
  sv.frame = (1, 1, FRAME_WIDTH, FRAME_HEIGHT)     
  sv.content_size = FRAME_WIDTH, FRAME_HEIGHT + 500 
  view.add_subview(sv) 
    
  tv = ui.TextView()
  tv.background_color = 'red'
  tv.frame = (2, 2, FRAME_WIDTH - 4, FRAME_HEIGHT - 4 + 500) 
  tv.font = ('Palatino', 18)
  tv.editable = False
  tv.text = message
  sv.add_subview(tv)

view = ui.View()                                     
view.name = 'Demo'                                    
view.background_color = 'black'                       
view.frame=(0, 0, 400, 400)

scrollview(message)

view.present(orientations = ['portrait'])

Hi,
Searched the docs and forums but can’t seem to find this. Any help on how to set a ui date picker to a particular value, rather than the current time as it’s displaying in my code at the moment. For example, 8am tomorrow.
Thanks, Terry

Hi, moved the script to the root and its been fine since, thanks for the suggestion. Thank, Terry

@JonB Thanks, I'll give that a try.

@dgelessus Hi, thanks for your reply. Yes, replaced the the text in question. In the specific case, it's just a string of integers, e.g., 1208060 . Consequently, I don't think there's any unusual characters, but thanks for the suggestion.

Hi,

I’m sending blood pressure data, e.g., 1208060 to a pythonista script to graph it. I send the data via a url from Drafts:

pythonista3://bp/add-blood-pressure-data?action=run&argv=[[Draft]]

The first time I do this, pythonista says there’s no such script. If I then undelete the draft and run the url again, it finds the script and works fine. Any ideas? Is this likely to be a Drafts issue or a Pythonista one?

Thanks, Terry

Excellent, thanks both, I can work with those.

Hi,

I’m struggling to find a way to re-factor the following code to have a single method which accepts arguments when called from a Scene UI button, rather than two very similar ones. Any suggestions very welcome! Thanks.

def show_view_A(sender):
	v = ui.View()
	v.background_color = ‘white’
	v.name = ‘A’
	global location
	location = 1 # used in another method to grab a url
	sender.navigation_view.push_view(v)
	message = get_html(page_info,location_info)
	scrollview(v,message)

def show_view_B(sender):
	v = ui.View()
	v.background_color = ‘white’
	v.name = ‘B’
	global location
	location = 2 # used in another method to grab a url
	sender.navigation_view.push_view(v)
	message = get_html(page_info,location_info)
	scrollview(v,message)
	
root_view = ui.View()
root_view.background_color = 'white'
root_view.name = 'Stuff'

A = ui.Button(title='A')
B = ui.Button(title='B')

A.action = show_view_A
B.action = show_view_B

root_view.add_subview(A)
root_view.add_subview(B)
