Problem ...with blocks

MIT App Inventor Help

Hello again
I come across a number of problems that seem to have an easy solution
But I spend hours and get no results
To give an example:
I want to design software that randomly displays a photo of an animal and asks the user what the name of the animal is.
After guessing he asks her what the sound of this animal is?
I want to do this for my child.

If it was in dot.net I would have done it by now

See this example

1 lable from picture
1 button to guess the name
1 timer for response time
And for example a button to hear the sound

Click the timer button is on
timer1.intarval = 20000
“show picturebox”
lable1.text = “What is the name of this animal?”
are you sre?
ok
What is the sound of this animal now?
are you sure?
Component Player is true

And the sound of the animal is broadcast and we move on to the next guess

Excuse me

Thanks for taking the time to read up…

What you want to do is not difficult with App Inventor. You need a Player or Sound Component, an Image and a few other components. There is no tutorial showing how to do all the things you want to do for your game. Build the basic parts, then add the features as you learn how to use the AI Blocks.

What have you coded using AI2 Blocks so far?

Also you might look at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rhs4HZ9bGUQ

Have you tried to learn how to program with AI2? Here are some resources to 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.

Here are a few specific tutorials that might help with your Project:

https://appinventor-mit-edu.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/explore/ai2/hellopurr Hello Purr is an introductory tutorial that shows most of the things you hope to do. Did you try it?

https://sites.google.com/site/ceballostejadasalvador6im14/sound-board is very basic.

This is a Forum discussion, you might be interested in the granja aia file in that discussion as an example of part of your Project.

More advanced is:

You will have to provide png or jpg images of the animals and some sound files in your Media.
