Time for action – making the Home card buttons work

The Sort by Location button's script is quite something. You should look forward to that! But first, we'll start with the Sort by Time button.

1. Edit the script of the Sort by Time button, on the first card.

2. Type in this short handler:

   on mouseUp
      global gReminderData
      set the itemdelimiter to tab
      sort gReminderData numeric by item 4 of each 
      showdata
      writedata
   end mouseUp

   Note

   LiveCode's sort command is powerful, and in the above case, it is sorting the list of reminders based on the notification seconds value. Once the lines are sorted, the list for the user to see is recreated, and the text file is rewritten.

3. Get mentally prepared and then edit the script of the Sort by Location button.

4. Type in all of this:

   on mouseUp
      global gReminderData
      mobileStartTrackingSensor "location", true
      put mobileSensorReading("location", false) into tLocation
      mobileStopTrackingSensor "location"
      set the itemdelimiter to comma
      put item...
