Hi, is it now possible to email from with an app and attach a image to the email. I see the Daily builds now say case effected like this: native.showPopup( “mail” [, options] ).

If it is possible is a more in depth explation of guide of attaching image to an email? [import]uid: 21298 topic_id: 19471 reply_id: 319471[/import]

We’ve just added a new API page covering this feature. Please see the link below…
http://developer.anscamobile.com/reference/index/nativeshowpopup

Here is an example:
[lua]local options =
{
subject = “Hello World!”,
body = “This is my message.”,
attachment = { baseDir=system.ResourceDirectory, filename=“MyFile.png”, type=“image” }
}
native.showPopup(“mail”, options)[/lua]

iphonedev,

You can also add double quotes within a Lua string by surrounding the string with apostrophes instead. For example…
[lua]local myString = ‘My “quote” test.’[/lua]

Double brackets is a good solution when you want to include newlines ‘\n’ within your string. For example…
[lua]local myString = [[This is line 1.
This is line 2.
This is line 3.]][/lua]

I hope this helps! [import]uid: 32256 topic_id: 19471 reply_id: 77619[/import]
