Thanks J! Yes exactly. I do all my coding around the LC field. When the user enters data in the native field I then move it to the LC field and work on it there. This allows IDE testing. Then when you start up the app set the visible of the LC field to true if in IDE (JLG's dev()) and to false when not in the IDE. In my case non-IDE is always mobile. You can layout the LC fields in the IDE and then set the rect of the native field to the rect of the now invisible LC field.
Just a note: I created a library alias's for all the mobile specific commands I have used so far. For example if I need a lat/lon location in the IDE or mobile I just call My alias: Function SensorReading Local GPS if dev() then put 53.338960434184 into GPS["latitude"] put -43.6840746841539 into GPS["longitude"] else put mobileSensorReading("location", true) into GPS end if return GPS["Latitude"] , GPS["Longitude"] end SensorReading This has been mentioned before but I think all mobile specific commands should act this way in the IDE.

Landman Gay Sent: Tuesday, July 05, 2016 7:15 PM To: How to use LiveCode Subject: Re: Front and Back Scripts on Mobile If you assign a name to the native control, mobileControlTarget() returns it instead of the number. It's a handy way to match up native controls to their LC counterparts without keeping a reference list.
