Hallo,
I’m new here and making my first app on Mobione. i have a few problems one of them is the panel – I’m making a iPhone / iPad app the app has lots of text and images, here and there I’m using the scroll panels but i have several problems here.
1. when i put some txt inside, and the iPhone is Portrait style everything is ok, when i let it show in landscape the panel is much longer as the text witch is inside… how can i change it so that the panel is only as long as the txt?2. How can i make “automatic” size change of multiple pictures in a panel when the phone / tablet is moved from portrait to landscape? I have several images one after another its not just one image! Its ment like a library…
And here are some other questions…
How can i add button with “send e-mail” to the application? So that the people that have my app can send me an e-mail whenever they want?Is it also possible to have something like “ad so shopping basket” in the app that could be send the order via mail to me i guess that would be somekind of e-mail form??
I hope for your fast reply soon.

Its realy funny…
I know how to make the changes on 1 item – no problem
but on several at once in a scroll panell – i cant… i realy dont get it…
I have several images in 2 scroll panels but when i change the orientation the images deformate…also i dont get the scroll panells – and i have sooo many inside my app… in portrait mode is everything ok, i can scroll to the end of the text, when i turn it around to landscape – the text streches – like i want – but I can scroll the panell forever – after the text is already passed…
I would need some help here.Then id like to make a Contact form – users can input there name, Adress, mail, phone, can select in combo multiple books and theres some place for there message… and i want all this information to be send to a e-mail…here is the problem, i can send an e-mail alrigt, but theres no information in the e-mail ( no userinformation that was written iside by the user, no selected books they want, nothing)…
I dont get that…
some help here would be great!Thanx!

>but on several at once in a scroll panell – i cant… i realy dont get it..
It’s not clear to me what you mean. For example are you selecting several image widgets and trying to set a common property on all of them? Or are you trying to do something else?
> in portrait mode is everything ok, i can scroll to the end of the text, when i turn it around to landscape – the text streches – like i want – but I can scroll the panell forever – after the text is already passed…
The panel widget is a fixed height control that is independent of its content. If you place text in a panel and the text resizes the panel is not able to automatically contract around it. We are investigating how we can provide a completely different type of text control that is specific to text layout. In the meantime some options are: 1) if you are developing a native app you can fix the orientation to one that is favorable to your text-panel layout, 2) avoid stacking multiple text+panels into a screen. We will improve this asap.
>but when i change the orientation the images deformate…
Image aspect ratio is not automatically preserved by the auto-resize settings. We were working on this improvement today for a near term update. In the meantime, you can turn off the resize settings to prevent proportional resizing of your images.>no selected books they want, nothing)… I dont get that…
Please describe your mailto implementation?Hallo Wayne,
Thank you for your reply…
OK here’s my situation: I have 2 panels.
In one are about 7 pictures of books, one under another, the panels are set as shown on images: See attachment panel left.PNG and See attachment panel right.PNGThe images inside of the panels are set like this : See attachment images.PNG
that looks great on Portrait mode – in landscape mode the scroll panels are on the desired positions but the images inside of them are still as small as before in portrait mode – I tried several functions – this one is for now that which works best – but id like the images to stretch in height and width so the images are not sooo small in landscape mode and that the screen of the mobile phone is filled like in Portrait mode. But ok, I can live with my solution for now…
With the text in the scroll panels – that’s something else – I tried your suggestions in your “how to” but that didn’t worked for me, every single scroll panels – where’s the txt inside has different functions selected – so that they do the same thing – scroll to the end of the text in portrait and Landscape mode… It was really frustrating that I couldn’t just select one function for all scroll panels… but I think I set it up now, somehow… – I hope that will work in future as well…
E-mailing.
Well I manned to make a e-mail form in what users can put there name, address, phone nr… and under that is a combobox1 ( with 13 items ) in which they can select books they would like to buy.
Ok, I’m really new at coding – I guess that’s my problem here.
What I want is: That the information which is written by the user ( name, address, mail… ) + the selected items from the combobox1 + the text msg they want to send will be send to a specific e-mail…
How could I do that.Thank you for your reply.

Hallo!
Same problem again…
I my project i have a scrollpanel and inside 1 image and unther the image is a text.
well my problem is that i had one like that before and i managed to set the panel so, that in portrait mode it scrolls to the end of the txt.
In landscape mode = in a different project with not so many txt i have managed to make the settins so, that i can scroll to the end of the txt.Now in the other one – the “problematic one” i set up the same settings, but when i switch to Landscape mode the panell scrolls wayyyy down – i dont know where it wants to go….
Is it possibile to fix this somehow – pls dont tel me with a script – i cant script (for now)
shouldnt the settings that work for one, work also for an other?Thank you for your help im realy out of ideas…
