I have been using my lack of programming knowledge to write an app for a weather sensor that doubles as a flashlight and allow the screen t ogo dark. The problem is that when it is scrolling data, it will not interrupt the scrolling to switch modes. Is there a way to cause a joystick action to interrupt the current action and switch to the new one?
It also appears that the scroll repeats at least twice every time it is activated, which is not much of a problem because when it is scrolling, I want it to ocntinue until another action is selected.
