I have used the plist hack for 3 years now. I know there are some threading issues with LC and the plist hack IS NOT supported or recommended by RunRev. That being said I have had no problems/customer complaints or trouble getting the app approved by Apple. My apps are a DB based applications and there are no messages in the path or timers active when the user leaves the app. It works for me but your mileage may vary.

Hi Alain, You can do this by storing the state when the app closes or at various points in your app usage. It is not a perfect solution in that the app truly does re-open again. All your variable data will be lost. Storing the state of your app and then bringing that state back upon restart of the software is the best thing we have going at this time. We used this technique to good effect in the LiveEvents app. It is used when the user needs to validate their email. Upon returning from the email program, the mobile app returns the user to the exact same spot. You can give this a try in the actual app from here: http://livecloud.io/runrevlive-14-conference-app/ You can download the source code to the app here: http://livecloud.io/live-events-source/ Best regards, Mark Talluto livecloud.io canelasoftware.com _______________________________________________ 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 _______________________________________________ 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
