• There are several web casts on the Appcelerator site about converting your application. 1.0 does away with the need to use any HTML. I would check out http://www.vimeo.com/9960118

• Code is not valid for 1.0.

  Kitchen Sink has a good example for this in the Geolocation examples.

• Hey Jeff - I downloaded the new Kitchen Sink but it wouldn't launch in my simulator - I tried this though

  http://pastie.org/872541 and it just gives me a blank screen. Any suggestions?

• Tim,

  Try creating your map view in your callback of getCurrentPosition.

• Also, what you pasted will not work if you are using Titanium 1.0.

• okay - thanks for your help Rob - it looks like I was trying to insert 1.0 code into my app which was 0.8.1 - I updated it in the Edit view but how do I update all my code to be 1.0?

• Thanks Rob - looks like I will just be starting from scratch again. Good thing I haven't done too much development on this app so far. I feel bad for those who have done a lot of work and then have to update their stuff…

• This is where your problem is Titanium.Geolocation.distanceFilter = 10;

  Comment it and you should be fine.

• Emulator can not show the current location. So you have to run this code in a device.
