IOS settings panel

I don’t think this is available yet, (please let me know if it is!), but it would be great to be able to add a ‘control panel’ item to the ios settings page (ie cache size, update frequency, etc) [import]uid: 43961 topic_id: 12949 reply_id: 312949[/import]

I wonder if that won’t work already.

The basic Xcode way of doing this is to add a Settings.bundle file to your xcode project directory. That bundle contains a .plist file with your settings in it.

Perhaps you could build it in Xcode, then copy it to your Corona SDK app, which should get built into the app bundle.

Then you probably could use the built in IO system to read that file in. Its XML so there is probably already an XML parser that would give you the settings as a table somewhere.

Disclaimer: I’m a total Xcode n00b so I don’t know what I’m talking about.

Was playing with this yesterday, but I don’t believe it’ll work. The XML file in question only holds the default value, not the user’s selection. I don’t believe we have any access to the NSUserDefaults we’d need to read those. Ansca? hehe [import]uid: 21712 topic_id: 12949 reply_id: 47981[/import]

I’d also like to request the option to create entries in the Settings iPhone app, for infrequently updated configuration items. [import]uid: 43692 topic_id: 12949 reply_id: 66676[/import]

I know this is an old thread but have been searching (with no luck) trying to see if this has been implemented yet. Seems I can’t search for it without getting a ton of hits related to “build settings” instead.

I find it hard to believe that 2 years later we still don’t have device settings access in Corona - so can someone point me to it or confirm that it is indeed not here yet?

Nope. Still not there. I also think that we need this. For example, it is quite a common behavior to look at the Notification Center to set Push settings for each app. In my apps my users need to remember to look for the settings page in my app rather than the Settings area. Takes away from that “same as a native app look & feel” thing…

Count me in as interested, I was just looking into this but NSUserDefaults could be a stumbling block.

That’s super simple to create a plugin for… Go Enterprise, folks :slight_smile:

I’m not ready to take that step yet but I wish the Corona Plugin Market would be launched soon with the ability for Enterprise developers to produce and market their plugins for the benefit of Pro users. There are a few plugins that need to be made I would gladly pay for.
