@Kevinkun

use File.CopyFile block...

I found the explanation that Legacy functionality will not work on Android 11 or later. Does that mean the block approach has limitations when used by users

Sorry, I didn't include the name I was referring to to explain my comment.

Use the edit button please.

Ok, as much as I can do it with "edit".

Try this ( it saves the HTML / picked image in the Shared folder /Documents/webview/):

webviewstringPickImage_Documents.apk

Blocks

Blocks

Legacy functionality will not work on Android 11 or later. Does that mean the block approach has limitations when used by users?

Of course, it does work.

Can't search and save csv files? - File component - FileScope (Android11)

Note: → Storage → File component→ FileScope → Legacy "Legacy: Files will be read from and written to the file system using the App Inventor rules prior to release nb187. That is, file names starting with a single / will be read from and written to the root of the external storage directory, e.g., /sdcard/. Legacy functionality will not work on Android 11 or later." This is imprecisely (incorrectly) formulated. It should have been said that with Legacy (or any other FileSpope) it is not possib…

No, it works on all Android versions.

And how about trying it out?

Please, give me explanation about this official statement from MIT Inventor: "Legacy functionality will not work on Android 11 or later".

It is wrong.

[Anke]

... and I already explained it, here (→ post #54).

[Alimbidz_A]

But until now there has been no correction related to that statement.

Thanks a lot, I'll try my simpler method first via Canvas without getting stuck with file scope, hope it works. If not, I'd be happy to try the method you suggest.

For clarification

AI2 decided to declare requestLegacyExternalStorage=true in the Manifest. This means that you can also access files from any folders on Android 10 (with storage permissions). This "Legacy functionality" does in deed no longer work on Android 11+. But you can of course use DefaultFileScope = Legacy on Android 11+.

@Anke

AI2 memutuskan untuk mendeklarasikan requestLegacyExternalStorage=true dalam Manifest. Artinya, Anda juga dapat mengakses file dari folder mana pun di Android 10 (dengan izin penyimpanan). "Fungsi lawas" ini memang tidak lagi berfungsi di Android 11+. Tapi tentu saja Anda bisa menggunakan DefaultFileScope = Legacy di Android 11+.

Thank you very much for your generous and sincere information and help

via Canvas without getting stuck with file scope

DefaultFileScope is always relevant when using components that can store something (such as Canvas). That is, if you use the default setting for DefaultFileScope = App, files are automatically stored in the ASD. So that means the DefaultFileScope sets the FileScope to App for the Canvas component. The only component that has its own FileScope is the File component.

I'm not a fan of this approach!

@Anke

DefaultFileScope selalu relevan saat menggunakan komponen yang dapat menyimpan sesuatu (seperti Canvas ). Artinya, jika Anda menggunakan pengaturan default untuk DefaultFileScope = App , file secara otomatis disimpan di ASD. Jadi itu artinya DefaultFileScope set FileScope to App untuk komponen Canvas. Satu-satunya komponen yang memiliki sendiri FileScope adalah File komponen.

Thanks a lot of
