grigrizljac - I found a solution in another post that works. From user correncec

I don't know if anybody's still needing help, but I managed to hide the bar by including the Status Bar plugin within Intel XDK and then from within my app, using the Browser's Execute Javascript action to call "StatusBar.hide();"

Thanks for the tip, I will try it if I make any more updates.

grigrizljac Did you ever resolve this issue?

Nope. I discontinued the development of that app. Also, I had too many troubles testing it on iPhone (couldn't test until it was uploaded to the App Store).

this mean for each game we need an independent html page??? can we have one html page and differents html5 games on it?

Usually, each game is in a different folder on a server, isn't it?

You can, for example, have a webpage (http://www.example.com) with links to games (/game1, /game2 etc.).

Probably, the best thing is to try.

As I know, LocalStorage is different for each webpage. So if you have one game on http://www.example.com/Game1, you won't be able to access this storage from another game on http://www.example.com/Game2.

The only problem may be when previewing, since you are always previewing on the same page.

If you are exporting to NW.js, you can use NW.js|Write file/Append file.

grigrizljac - This isn't possible according to Ashley here: https://www.scirra.com/forum/how-do-i-run-the-game-in-background-crosswalk_t122089 but I do know that in the Audio Plugin Properties, there is an option to play music in background.

Thanks for the info. Yeah, Audio allows that, but I'd need to run the events (compare acc/orientation, if it's xx, play audio).

Hi, Scirra forum users,

I'm wondering how to make an Android app to work in background. I need to constantly measure accelerometer and tilt (orientation) and play sounds.

Is that possible? If so, how?

Looks promising!

Add

System|Trigger once while true[/code:9dajf835]

There are two ways of doing this.

1. On start of layout -> Mouse|Set cursor from sprite (in this case, make sure the crosshair sprite is not larger than 64x64).

2. Every tick -> crosshair set position to X: Mouse.X, Y: Mouse.Y (make sure you set to X and Y, not AbsoluteX and AbsoluteY)

For the first option, see here for more info: https://www.scirra.com/manual/114/mouse (under Mouse Actions).

I'm certain the problem is with "On touch". This is a trigger event, which occurs only once you touch it. Try "Touch|Is in touch" or "Touch|Is touching object".

Audio must also exist in .m4a format to play on iOS.
