Good tutorial.

But there is a Move method already in the File component.

[Surendra_Parihar]

Input is to From Filename, while Output is to To Filename

• what if i want to change the photo that i want to save !!
  i want make it change just from fbStorage
  in this way i have to enter the app every time i need to download another photo to copy it’s link.
• i want to get the photo i’ve saved to the app after getting it from fbStorage so i can preview it in the app without needing the internet every time i open the app

But how to set kodular block

But there is a Move method already in the File component.

It’s here what I was explaining.

[Pranay_raj1 (Pranay Raj)]

I mean how to set .move block of kodular because block shape of .move is different in kodular

[hammerhai (Nathan)]

Connect it to an event block, which is one of the yellow one which you can put blocks under.

[Pranay_raj1 (Pranay Raj)]

All events blocks shape doesn’t fit with this block only one block evaluate and ingnore result block fits but it is not working

[hammerhai (Nathan)]

OK, evaluate should work so try it again under Screen1.initialize

Yes downloaded successfully…
Now I want …
When app opened (scree1 initialise) check if the photo (photo.jpg) exists on user device (.foldername) if yes then get it if not exist(user deleted the hiden folder or the image then download it on first run…
How to do that?

Quiz App. How to download images from Airtable when app starts

I am working on a quiz app where i have to download the images (about 100+) from Airtable at once when the app first time starts. After that these images will be used in the quizApp in offline mode. App only requires internet when it first time starts. How can I do that means download the images?

One thing I do not like with the download component, if you move the file from the default Download folder, it leaves track of which files you have downloaded in the stock Downloads application of my device…

Did you mean to use it like this ?
I really want to use Kodular file component, because it is batter than add other extention to project but why move block have shape like that ? i have no idea how to use it,​ it should be shape like the copy block once. And dun know why Kodular make move block like this, maybe it have something specail or … but hope they make it like copy block because i and many user familer with block shape like copy then move block.
