mobileLocationAuthorizationStatus() will tell you if the OS app setting will allow location tracking mobileSensorAvailable("location") will tell you if there is a location sensor mobileStartTrackingSensor "Location", [true|false] will start the tracking.
mobileSensorReading("location", [true|false]) will return an array of the current location. If the latitude or longitude is zero then the GPS is not yet locked Ralph DiMola IT Director Evergreen Information Services rdim...@evergreeninfo.net -----Original Message----- From: use-livecode [mailto:use-livecode-boun...@lists.runrev.com] On Behalf Of Graham Samuel via use-livecode Sent: Friday, April 03, 2020 11:18 AM To: How to use LiveCode Cc: Graham Samuel Subject: Getting started with geographical coordinates Hi I am reviving my LiveCode skills in these troubled times, and I want to do something that involves the location of a device using GPS. A very rapid (obviously too rapid) search of the documentation finds commands like iphoneStartTrackingLocation, but no link to a description of how one reads the actual geographical coordinates or what form they take. There is a reference to CoreLocation, but that hasn’t got a dictionary entry. Can anyone point me in the right direction. Sorry if it’s obvious.
