Ok.

I have attached the eclipse project to the first post. Anyone who would like to use it is free to take it. The only condition is that you must promise to pass down the name of 'thedesolatesoul' through your generations and never let the name die.

I have forsaken this project because:
1. I'm not interested in it. I only ported it to remain productive.
2. It didnt meet my expectations in user experience and design.

Always remember @jotaele owes me a VPS or a tutorial to fix graphics issues on a Ubuntu VM.

Thank you and good luck.

Here is the Library with the methods

-setTarget2 (View v , int x, int y , int radius )
-setButtonText(String str)

If you want, you can put it in the first post.

Thousands of thanks for the source code.

Uploaded to the first post.
Also, if you make any more changes you can also change the Version annotation at the top of the file, that would make it easier to track.

Hi All,

Is it possible to add method to define where the got it button is to be placed. Currently when i want to show the Floating action Button, the Got it Button is coming right on the top of it.

Regards,
SK

The source of the java it in post #1. Just change the values like you wish and recompile the library.
You need to change line 271-274 of ShowTipsView.java
B4X:
        params.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_BOTTOM);
        params.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_RIGHT);
        params.rightMargin = 50;
        params.bottomMargin = 50;

    btn_close.setLayoutParams(params);

I tried this library but it didn't quite do what I wanted, so I created my own class to do much the same thing, but with a bit more control over the positioning of the text and buttons.

Finishing it up this week, but it really needs testing on more apps, so I'll post an alpha version if people are interested.

I've posted version 1.0 of my free tips class (DOTips).

Feel free to try it out and use it in your apps.

If you have any questions, suggestions, or bug reports, please reply in that thread, not here.

Thanks!
