I am trying to connect my App to the control panel. I've successfully done all the coding but the Navigation Bar code. Here is the code crashing on me below. I need this code so I can put a Next button in Nav Bar and the color. How do you coders do it? Any tips/suggestions? Thank you in advance. //setup navigation bar... LinearLayout navBar = BT_viewUtilities.getNavBarForScreen(this, this.screenData); if(navBar != null){ baseView.addView(navBar); LA

Hi @LA, it's probably just me, but I can't follow what you're asking. The nav bar settings are in the bt control panel. Is your app crashing? Do you have a logcat report for the crash?

Hey @raveyd, When I create a plugin from buzztouch, I download it and take all the code out and start coding from scratch. The plugin will still connect to menu then I start putting the original coding that came with it back in the plugin. You with me so far..lol? LA

Before I put that code in t works fine, after I put that code in it crashes.

So if I look at this logcat, it tells me at java 99 there is a problem. That would be where I inserted the code for background. If I break this code down: //setup navigation bar... LinearLayout navBar = BT_viewUtilities.getNavBarForScreen(this, this.screenData); if(navBar != null){ baseView.addView(navBar); There is this "if (navBar != null) { null can throw an exception. Any ideas? LA

Solved!!!! LA
