since LC does not support bluetooth on Android (yet?), I need an USB device. Or does it? Remember, I want to do it by myself! :-) Already found a cheap USB device on Amazhon which looks like it could do the job. But first I need to get a cheap tablet with a not too old Android version, so LC will support it. > At one point I was also managing to play in four bands. Knocking it down to > three simplified my life immensely. Highly recommended. I am retired, don't have family and a lot more time than money, no problem for me, Sir! :-D However my two questions are still unanswered. 1. Anyone knows if these switches will act like an "external keyboard", means if they will just send any RAWKEY that I could catch in LC? 2. Since PDFs are not accessible via "mobilepickmedia" are there ANY other ways to add some PDFs later without having to download them from some URL? > -- > Mark Wieder > ahsoftw...@gmail.com Best Klaus -- Klaus Major https://www.major-k.de https://www.major-k.de/bass kl...@major-k.de _______________________________________________ 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
