1. Config.xml is a file that PhoneGap uses for its settings: icon, program name, version, features used, etc. Until now, you had to create this file yourself. Now, it is generated automatically using the information already in your project. To customize it for your own needs, edit configxml in Project Properties. Full documentation on config.xml is here.

2. The phonegap property has been removed from Project Properties. It conflicted with PhoneGap Build and was rarely used. To accomplish the same thing, add <script src="phonegap.js"></script> to the extraheaders property.

3. Range

   
   The Range option in the TextBox control allows you to have an input slider. (iOS 5).

Documentation Changes for Version 1.3.0

1. iOS5: This release brings support for new features in iOS5. Unfortunately, iOS5 has a bug which affects all web apps (not just NS Basic generated ones). It is recorded as Bug 9519157 in Apple's tracking system. The first time an app is run after it is saved to the Home screen, if in offline mode, will show a message that internet access is required. The message can be ignored: it will only appear once.

2. PhoneGap Build in NSB/AppStudio: We have now added the ability to create native apps using PhoneGap directly into NSB/AppStudio. Here is what you need to do:

   1. If you have a PhoneGap Email and Password, enter it into Deploy Options (under the Tools menu). Otherwise, a demo account will be used.
   2. From the Run menu, choose "Build Native App".
   3. From the Run menu, check the status of your build in "Get Native Build Status".
   4. As the builds complete, the URLs to download them will appear on this screen.
   5. Do whatever else you need to do to deploy the native app to the device.
   6. To set additional options for the build, create a config.xml file in your home directory. See https://build.phonegap.com/docs/config-xml.

   

3. ComboBox: Now much easier to use, and supports setting up the list in the IDE. Old implmentation should continue to work. See updated sample.

4. Manifest: NETWORK: * is now part of the default manifest. This means that any external reference is now allowed. This is especially helpful if you are doing complex operations with external servers. If you add your own NETWORK: section to your manifest, it will override the default setting.

5. New AdSense Control: AdSense lets you put advertising on your page. If your customer clicks on it, your AdSense account at Google will earn money. To use this, first sign up with AdSense.com, then fill the account details into the control's properties. Note that if the customer clicks on an ad, your program will end and the customer will be taken to the ad's website. Make sure you keep your current state saved so you can restart.

   

6. New NSB.MsgBox control: The current MsgBox statement reads "JavaScript" instead of the program name, and is missing many features found in the VBScript version. The new NSB.MsgBox remedies this - it has all the features of the VBScript statement and more: such as custom icons.

   

   There is one significant difference. All execution is not stopped until the user responds (as the current MsgBox and the VBScript one do). The screen will lock out all other input, but execution will continue. Once the user has dismissed the NSB.MsgBox, a function in the program can be called to deal with the result.

   See the new nsbMsgBox sample.

7. New NSB.InputBox control: Implemented much like NSB.MsgBox.

   

8. Amazon Fire support: While we support the screensize of the device, we have not actually gotten one to test yet. No promises until we do!

1.2.6

1. Samples: Nearly all have been revised and new comments added.
2. Controls: All scrolling controls now have a refresh() method. See below.
3. Docs: Handbook and Language Reference updated.
4. Code Window: 'Not', 'True' and 'False' were not colored correctly.
5. Code Window: False syntax error on Do statement fixed.
6. Controls: Form now has some events.
7. Controls: nsbbutton class improved.

9. Deploy: Incorrect browser message can be changed.
10. Language: New global: Location. See Language Reference.
11. Samples: New Picturebox_ScrollAndZoom sample.
12. Samples: Reorganized folders.

Documentation Changes for Version 1.2.6

1. Scrolling controls: All now have a .refresh() method, which replaces having to do SetTimeout(control_ref.refresh(),100). Now you just need to do control.refresh() after the content of a scrolling area is rendered or updated.

1.2.5

1. Samples: TextToSpeech sample added.
2. Samples: New Encrypt sample added.
3. Controls: new PayPal button control to "Buy Now" or "Donate".

25. Translator: If If a then MsgBox "b" fixed.

Documentation Changes for Version 1.2.5

1. New PayPal control: This provides an easy way to collect a payment or a donation from a user. Tapping on it will bring up the PayPay Payments screen with the user and amount filled in - all they have to do is approve the transation. To use it, you need to have a PayPal Merchant Account (easy to set up), and use Merchant Services to create a button. Use the ID number it gives you in the properties of the button, and specify whether this is a Donation or Purchase. This feature will be handy for those selling commercial or donationware apps.
   

2. New ButtonBar control: This control lets you arrange two or three buttons, either as a titlebar or lower down on the form. This are usually used for apps with multiple forms to switch between. Each form will have a buttonbar control on it, with a different button highlighted.
   

3. Text to Speech: A new sample has been added showing how to get the device to speak a text string. To do this, you will need to sign up with iSpeech. The first 1000 words are free.

4. Sencha Touch is an additional library of controls and functions. The best way to experience it is to run the new KitchenSink sample in the Sencha folder. It has some beautiful effects (more coming), but since it is fairly large, it can slow down app deployment and loading.

5. Grid.refresh(): This new function should be called whenever the size of a grid changes, or when a scrolling grid is opened on a new form. It replaces the SetTimeout(grid_ref.refresh(),100) that used to be needed. Check the GridWithScrolling sample to see how it is used.

1.2.4

1. JSON support added. See docs below.
2. Design Screen: Right click on a control brings up lots of options.
3. Properties Window: Now remembers folder settings on restart.

25. Samples: ReadFile uses updated HTMLview.
26. Translator: 'f = FactCalc()' was not always translating properly.
27. Translator: 'Function test(p) one' no longer hangs IDE.
28. Translator: Dim(10,10,10) was not creating all elements.
29. Translator: Typename("12345a") returned Integer, not string.
30. Translator: Dim(a.b) is now allowed.

Documentation Changes for Version 1.2.4

1. Make sure you do a full deploy the first time you run the new version.

2. JSON is now supported. JSON is a standardized way of converting objects to strings so they can easily be saved or transmitted to other systems. For example, you could convert an SQLite database to JSON, then transfer it to a server using WebSockets or HTTP POST. The server would then unpack it and process it.

3. Buttons now look more like standard iOS buttons. The edges are now straight: just the corners are rounded. Any new buttons you create will have the new look: to upgrade old buttons to the new look, enter nsbbutton into the class property of the button in the IDE. To keep the old appearance, leave the class property blank. Be sure to do a full deploy to see this change.

1. Deploy: We have made some changes to how files are deployed to provide some additional functionality. You can now put the name of folder in your list of files to deploy. That folder, and all of the files and folders in it, will be copied to your server. This makes it easy to have a project with a lot of files: you no longer have to list each file in the manifest.

   We also reorganized the files that NS Basic needs at runtime, putting them all into an /nsb/ folder within your project. You may want to delete your app from your server completely before you deploy next time: that will get the obsolete NS Basic files out of your app's folder.

Documentation Changes for Version 1.1.3

1. Incremental Compile: Only the code modules which have changed since the last compile will be recompiled.

2. Caching: If there is a fresh copy of your app on the server, status messages will now be displayed as the files load. Once all the files are loaded, the app will restart automatically. This takes the guesswork out of knowing whether the new version of your app has loaded. Your program can continue to do processing as this is going on.

   To check if updating is going on, check if NSB_eCount>1.

   To override the standard handling of cache events, add this code to your program:

   	Sub oncache(e)
   	  'do what processing you need (or nothing)
   	End Sub

3. Default Form Size: The IDE has a number of default form sizes built in. You can ignore these and enter your own height and width. If you know the size of a popular device you would like added to the list, send the info to us.
