I am attempting to make an app using lists that portray bell schedules and was curious if there were any tutorials etc out there? Or if anyone has any help they would like to offer. Thanks!
Welcome Franklin.
Bell schedule? Do you want to do something like this https://unlockingtime.org/school-schedules or just post a List showing times and events? In the latter case you could use a ListOfPairs. * How does the lookup in pairs block work?
Perhaps https://imagnity.com/tutorials/app-inventor/list-blocks-on-app-inventor/ will help?
You might get specific advice by providing an example of what you want the app to do.
Here is what im aiming for [https://www.mrzielen.com/ap-mobile-csp-2016-17.html]. You have to scroll to the bottom of the page. So obviously I'm using list etc just need more guidance. Thanks !
Try a search on the Gallery, there are a few examples there too. (aia projects you can work with!)
Sorry, I couldn't find any examples that show code could you possibly link them please Thanks!
Search in the Gallery for schedule . There isn't any app I could find that does what you want to do as far as I can tell. There are apps that are schedule display and create apps. You have to search; and then might not even find exactly an app in the Gallery that will do what you want.
Perhaps this code snippet is helpful?
It tells you what period it is currently based on the current time (hour)
If not, you need to review these resources that can help you learn to use the AI2 tools. A very good way to learn App Inventor is to read the free Inventor's Manual here in the AI2 free online eBook http://www.appinventor.org/book2 ... the links are at the bottom of the Web page. The book 'teaches' users how to program with AI2 blocks.
There is a free programming course here http://www.appinventor.org/content/CourseInABox/Intro and the aia files for the projects in the book are here: http://www.appinventor.org/bookFiles
How to do a lot of basic things with App Inventor are described here: http://www.appinventor.org/content/howDoYou/eventHandling .
Also look here http://kio4.com/appinventor/index.htm and here http://www.imagnity.com/tutorial-index/ for more tutorials.

Things to use:
- New line is \n or (in html)
- Horizontal centering attribute in Designer
