Making Context Menus and Modal Dialogs in Apple Watch Apps
#Making Context Menus and Modal Dialogs in an Apple Watch App
Another learning curve we faced when creating the Whiskr Apple Watch App was how to use a context menu with modal dialogs. We ideally wanted this menu to display when the user force touched (long press) on a cat picture, so they could chose between showing where the picture was taken on a map, or display additional information about the picture, for example who took it.
the context menu inside the Whiskr app when you force press on a photograph.
##1. Context Menu
The first thing we needed to do was to open our storyboard. We need to drag a "menu" object out onto the Interface Controller that the user will force touch on. It's worth noting here, that a context menu is unique only to a screen, you can not make it unique for each item in a table row for example.

#Project Tigr Books
Getting more young people interested in technology is vital for the sustainability of the tech industry in Bath and Bristol. We've written here before about what we're doing teaching in the Bath area, and why other people should start helping us too.
We're now on kickstarter with a project to turn some of our online materials into physical books to make it easier for more people to teach their own friends and family to code. Our materials are not a railroad of instructions, unlike most typical code websites where everyone makes exactly the same thing; however they inspire creativity and everyone makes something different. For example, one book will teach creating your own interactive emoji. Our materials are also accessible

You need to find the JSFiddle link for the solar system that you made last week - if for whatever reason you can't or you have lost it I have made you a starting jsfiddle - you will need to fork it before you start!
##Task 1 - Hex Colours
There are many ways to represent colours with computers - we've been telling our svg shapes to be "red" or "yellow" or "green" - this isn't great if you want a specific colour green!
