Not sure if this post is going anywhere or not. I was looking for some sort of support forum, but this is all I could come up with.

I downloaded the AppStudio this morning. Very interesting. Here are 4 quick questions:

1. Is there a 'timer' control available?
2. Can you read/write files or settings for your app (similar to .ini files or registry entries)?
3. What sort of string manipulation is available?
4. What steps would you need to take to write and/or retrieve a 'play list' for media files?

Thanks...

I monitor the wiki pretty closely. Feel free to ask questions on your user talk page. You also have the option of signing up for our mailing list. To answer your questions:

1. There isn't a timer control, but take a look at the SetTimeout page for how to accomplish the same thing.
2. You can do something similar. I'd suggest taking a look at LocalStorage.
3. Take a look at Category:Strings to see what can be done with strings.
4. I'd probably attempt to use LocalStorage, or if you need something more robust, Sql should do the job.

Let me know if you have anymore questions. --James (talk) 23:08, 3 July 2013 (EDT)
