Before I re-invent the wheel... I was thinking of adding tips and hints to some screens, and was going to have an item in the screen Context Menu open a webView or better yet use a PopUp Webview. Has anyone else done something that seems like a better idea? What would be really cool would be displaying a semi-transparent image over the screen, similar to what several apps do the first time a user runds the app. - that would be a sweet plugin for someone else who is a lot farther down the learning curve than I am right now ;)

Are you trying to make the app more accessible? If so, I'm going this route in the future. I've been doing lots of research in the past two weeks and I've noticed that it is very easy to add accessibility labels, hints and descriptions to the app in general. Especially with iOS apps that use XIB and for Android it a little bit more involved but I would love to see it enabled. Once I enable it for my plugin I will try (if time permits) to make documentation of how developers can enable accessibility to their plugins. My research finds that the labels and hints aren't at all difficult and it will cater to all users. Something that I find very useful and kind. - my 2 cents :) Sorry I couldn't answer you question directly, but I did notice that you mention accessibility in another post!

Currently only on iOS, and have not created any XIB based screens (other than some of the plugins included which have them). Mainly looking at a way to provide Tips & Hints to all users, and thought that a visual overlay might be more intuitive than any write-up I include. Any links you have found on labels and hints would be appreciated.

The first link goes into great detail. I'll update the post later with more. http://mattgemmell.com/accessibility-for-iphone-and-ipad-apps/ http://www.podfeet.com/blog/tutorials-5/build-accessible-ios-apps/

FWIW, I am working on an app to work with VoiceOver. Unfortunately all but one of the menu plugins don't support it 'out of the box'. The simple menu just gives you 'Indent' for every item. However, (and Danny's timing is excellent), the BTA menus DO work with Voiceover, so you can bear that in mind depending on the accessibility you are looking for.

Fingers Crossed it was you who I was referring to. I saw your post in PSM Danny's latest plugin free offer. Sorry for referencing you wrongly @NCbuzz. Yes, most of the menu plugins need the accessible attribute added progamatically. What do you mean by indent for every item?

> What do you mean by indent for every item? When you run the simple menu plugin with VoiceOver, every time you move over the menu items, instead of it speaking "Option 1" "Option 2" etc as on the menu text, it just says "Indent' "Indent" for each item I had on the list.
