win8_livetile_notification_secondary_begin(template, tile_id);
| Argument | Description |
|---|---|
| template | The template that the secondary tile notification should take (a string, see Live Tile Templates) |
| tile_id | The tile id that identifies the secondary tile (a string). |
Returns: N/A
This function is similar in use to that of win8_livetile_notification_begin,
only here we are telling GameMaker: Studio that the tile you
are to define is going to be a secondary tile. Secondary tiles must
first be created, given a unique tile id and then
pinned to the Windows 8 UI using the function before being modified in any way.
var expiryTime;
expiryTime = date_current_datetime();
expiryTime = date_inc_minute(expiryTime, 5);
win8_livetile_notification_secondary_begin("TileSquarePeekImageAndText01",
"secondary");
win8_livetile_notification_expiry(expiryTime);
win8_livetile_notification_tag("tag0");
win8_livetile_notification_text_add("Current Score = " +
string(score));
win8_livetile_notification_image_add("ms-appx:///" +
working_directory + "ScoreTile.png");
win8_livetile_notification_end();
The above code will push a new Live Tile notification through to the Secondary tile that you have previously pinned to the Windows 8 UI.
