iPhone information

by Jason Darby · in Technical Issues · 05/14/2009 (11:59 am) · 8 replies

Is there any technical documentation for the iPhone?

Have found the TGB documentation alittle lacking so far (lots of mistakes in the tutorials), and not very clear. So before i spend alot of money on the iPhone exporter and an apple mac, just wondering if there was any documentation on what the exporter can do.

Also are any of the SDK controls available in the product also?

Thanks

    I know i probably should have posted this in the general discussion area, so sorry about that... but has anyone got any information/advice? Is anyone using it currently that can perhaps give me details on how easy it is to use and what it can do.

    Many thanks

    Jason;

    I have fond the same problem, which is rather annoying to tell you the truth but it is what it is. We all need to start keeping track of what we are finding out and I also thing Garage Games should consider giving the iPhone package it's own forum so the information is:

    1) Easier for us to track
    2) Easier for them to see what problems are coming up and let us know the fixes available
    3) Easier for those of us who want to can post tutorials and such to help each other out.

    HOW ABOUT IT SYSADMIN??

    iTGB does have its own private forums. You own iTGB so you should be seeing it. Click on Forums and you should see iTGB(Private) listed under the My Products category.

    And for the lazy.

    Thanks Scott, I exited safari and logged back in and they appeared.

    Man, I thought I left that sort of behavior behind on the PC!

    "iTGB does have its own private forums. You own iTGB so you should be seeing it"

    Thats all very well and good if you own iTGB, I currently dont and its very difficult to find any information about it, probably doesnt help that everyone who owns it is probably posting in the private forums :(. Not the best situation. It is risky for me to invest in iTGB/Mac to find out what the program to do.

    The forums are now open, so have a look back in there :)

    There's a sticky about iPhone-specific things supported by iTGB, and more are being added. You can get the keyboard to pop up when touching text boxes now, for example.
