Calendar

Hello Everyone!

New Corona user here. I’m very excited by the possibilities of using Corona to craft iPhone apps.
I have a question that I can’t seem to find the answer to browsing the site.

Is there a way to enter a date / event in a Corona developed app and have that date create a calendar entry?

Also, is there access to the picker wheel?

Thanks!

Hi,

Corona doesn’t have an API to access calendar information on iPhone. It’s a good feature request, and I’ll add it to our internal bug base. Currently, we don’t provide access to native iPhone widgets like the picker wheel, but you can create your own. For example, the TableView widget was created with Lua/Corona which you could modify to behave like picker wheel, with some work.

Any news about adding stuff to the users calendar from within a Coroan app? [import]uid: 4589 topic_id: 3497 reply_id: 32422[/import]

Need this ASAP also! [import]uid: 6317 topic_id: 3497 reply_id: 99600[/import]

While Corona is great for creating games, having access to Calendar and Contact APIs would make Corona an easier choice for business apps. Please add these APIs as soon as possible! [import]uid: 118856 topic_id: 3497 reply_id: 102164[/import]
