Rotary dialer app in app inventor

[paras chaurasia]

Can someone pls make a video or guide to make a rotary dialer app in app inventor...... Plssssssss

[SteveJG]

Here are some pieces for the graphics  (the code is in Java so you still need to develop the appropriate App Inventor blocks) that contains some graphics that might be useful  https://hackernoon.com/transform-your-android-smartphone-into-an-old-school-rotary-dialer-454d046bd40f

Another piece is 

• Chapter 17. Creating Animated Apps

Then you need some blocks to turn the dial ... look in the MIT Gallery and google for rotary   and find the app called Dial ... you can use that possibly to convert a turning motion into numbers...needed to grab the phone numbers.... Capture each number 'dialed' into a Text string, then use the Phone component to do the rest.

These are just ideas that could work together.  I haven't tried this.     What have you tried paras?

However this video might give you LOTS of ideashttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jP72ppG7BWM ...how to make a regular dialer

Regards,

Steve

I have the site link with me already, I was even able to rotate dialer and go for a call. The problem is I can't get proper numbers to dial... Can u pls help me with that.

[SteveJG]

You got part of the problem working.  That is great.  Can anyone help?   Not unless you post your code and/or the aia.   The required code probably is not simple .  Did you find the app in the Gallery called  Dial?   The Dial app by mjspeigln  has the basic required code using two Ball objects, you need to adapt that code to work with the sprites in the rotary dial article.

Proper numbers to dial ... you need to explain that.  If your dialer can provide 0123456789     and you can place them in a Text box you just use the values in the Phone component.

Post what you have here in the forum and someone is going to find the project interesting and provide advice.

I will provide the code tomorrow as I am in office right now, meanwhile can u pls provide me the link of that app as I am not able to search it on google

[SteveJG]

It is VERY easy to search in the MIT Galllery for app examples.     Use the MENU on the Designer to go to    Gallery and search for   dial

This adapt will need to be adapted to your purposes  It uses Balls, not Image Sprites and then you will have to add the code to actually dial the number .... search the gallery for 'dialer'

When you get it working, please consider posting the blocks and / or aia here in the forum so others may benefit.

BTW and total-off-topic:

This is a rotary encoder (hardware) for Arduino.
