Hi.
I'm new to trying to make apps.
I have a question about drawing on a picture and emailing both the photo and what was drawn on the photo without having to save everything first.
I have used the tutorial "paintpot" and then tried to send "canvas1. BackgroundImage" with "ShareFileWithMessage". Only the photo is sent, but not what I have drawn on the picture. What have I miss?

Thanks, it works!

Another question about my test app: line breaks in ShareFileWithMessage, how to start a new line or get an empty line. The one I did does not look good in an email.

Hi.
Tried to use / n and / n / n, looked good in the email when I sent it away. When it came out in outlook, everything was in a row. No new row for each /n.
Outlook shows in html, can this be the cause?

First off it should be \n or \n\n (not /n)

If you need to send with html tags, then try <br> or <br><br>

In an eMail, you must use <br> or <br><br> as Tim indicated to elicit a line change. \n does not work in emails.

See Sending mail with more than one line (in the body of the message)

Hi.

It worked with <br>

Thanks again
