@wreyford your error message seems to indicate that you call your own script turtle.py...and that is to be avoided because it has the same name as the imported module.

@secmast try this

import location, time

a=""
label1 = ""

def getlocation():
    location.start_updates()
    time.sleep(1)
    label1 = location.get_location()    # returns a dictionnary
    location.stop_updates()
    return label1

a = getlocation()
print(a)
# get two elements from dictinnary
lat = a['latitude']
lon = a['longitude']
print(lat,lon)```

I think that pick_document creates a local temporary copy of the external file.
You could append your data to the local copy and then save the appended file into its original location via open_in.

@brumm ok, no problem (I do the same a lot of unsuccessful tries and then, miracle, it works 😥)

@brumm You could perhaps be interested by this (not so easy) modification to check the location while typed, without going to a map app...

@brumm If you allow to specify the start/end date of the event, perhaps could you also allow to set the year (if you have enough room on the screen)

@brumm I just wanted to say that my quick code was ugly (I hope @ccc didn't see it 😢), not the visual aspect.

@AlanE If I correctly understood, try this

import ui

v = ui.View()
v.frame = (0,0,500,600)

sv1 = ui.View(name='sv1')
sv1.background_color = 'white'
sv1.frame = (0,0,v.width/2,v.height)
v.add_subview(sv1)
b1 = ui.Button(name='b1')
b1.frame = (0,0,100,32)
b1.border_width = 1
def b1_tap(sender):
    print(sender.title)
    mv = sender.superview.superview
    sender.superview.remove_subview(sender)
    mv['sv2'].add_subview(sender)
b1.action = b1_tap
b1.title = 'b1'
sv1.add_subview(b1)

sv2 = ui.ScrollView(name='sv2')
sv2.background_color = 'yellow'
sv2.frame = (sv1.width,0,v.width-sv1.width,v.height)
sv2.content_size = (sv2.width,2*sv2.height)
v.add_subview(sv2)
b2 = ui.Button(name='b2')
b2.frame = (0,50,100,32)
b2.border_width = 1
def b2_tap(sender):
    print(sender.title)
b2.action = b2_tap
b2.title = 'b2'
sv2.add_subview(b2)


v.present('sheet')```

@brumm Nice
If you want to have a date-year picker, try this little (ugly) script

import ui

v = ui.View()
v.name = 'Day Time Month Year Picker'
v.frame = (0,0,500,500)
v.background_color = 'white'

d = ui.DatePicker()
d.frame = (50,50,200,200)
d.mode = ui.DATE_PICKER_MODE_DATE_AND_TIME
d.background_color = (200,200,200,1)
v.add_subview(d)

y = ui.DatePicker()
#y.background_color = 'lightgray'
y.mode = ui.DATE_PICKER_MODE_DATE
y.background_color = d.background_color
y.frame = (50,50,300,200)
v.add_subview(y)

d.bring_to_front()

v.present('sheet')```

I use piexif, see here
