Projects Section does not show any files

I just created a new iPhone project to get started for the first time with a Titanium app.

After creating the app, everything runs fine, but on the left side of the screen of the Titanium IDE, I do not see any files.
I see the project name, and that is it.

Thanks for your help.

  • There are no files… Titanium developer is more of a "compiler"… you need to find the files where you selected the project to be "stored" and just compile from the titanium developer.

  • All the example demos that I looked at, show files underneath the project.

    If what you say is true… that there are no files in Titanium, then how do I create my project using Titanium? How do I add new files. How do I code my project?

    I am extremely confused.

    Thank you for your answer and your time.

  • When you created the project, you selected a destination folder… look there ;)

  • If I understand the answers, so far. Titanium is not a development environment, but rather a tool that lets me compile the code that I have created using another platform, so that I can output it to different SDKs; iPhone, Android.

    Is this correct?

    I thought that I was going to be able to develop the application here within the tool.

    The part that I don't understand is that in the videos, when the KitchenSink application is loaded, there is a whole list of files that loads underneath Project|KitchenSink. In my case what I see is:

    PROJECTS
    KitchenSink

    and that is it… I don't see anymore files!
    Obviously if I go to the folder, I see that code that was created, but what am I suppossed to do at this point? Open up XCode and code how I would have done anyway?

    Please help me understand this, because the way I am understanding this, this tool will not bring me any benefits, since I am solely coding for the iPhone.

    Thank you

  • Carlos,

    You can choose any tool you want to developer the javascript code you need to compile with Titanium Developer (yes, is more of a "compiler" than a developer tool, you wont be developing anything in the Titanium Developer)

    I suggest you start here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tX_7NGvcNk4
