OSX :: How To Put Native Window Over Menubar

Jan 3, 2012

I'm developing a multi monitor fullscreen application with Adobe Air 2.6. I can create a window for every monitor, and put those windows to fullscreen.
theWindow.stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN_INTERACTIVE;
The problem comes when interacting with those windows. If I click the window on the main monitor (the one with the dock and menu bar) no problem, but when I click any other window the system menu bar becomes visible. I've tried resizing the main window to match the monitor size and moving it to a negative coordinate but it always stays behind the bar. Is it possible to do this in Air?

Actionscript 3 :: Air Native Window Active Window Change?

Oct 6, 2011

I have a Adobe Air app (AS3, not Flex) that has 2 windows. When I click away from them onto another desktop program, I get an "Deactivate" Event (as you would expect).When I click on say Window#1 I get an "Activate" Event (as you would expect).But when I go from Window#1 to Window#2, I get nothing. And I believe this is because the Air application is still the active program, Just a Different Window.

But I have the need to know when I go from 1 window to another.The horrible solutions I have come up with so far is to have an onEnterFrame and check if the current window is the active window. But I would much prefer to do it a much better way that such a hack.I have gone though Stage, NativeApplication and Native Window Events and none of them do what I need. Can anyone point me to another Event I may have overlooked?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Closing A Native Window

Jun 30, 2009

I'm trying to add an event listener to a window that pops up (to the whole window) that will close that window when clicked on. Basically it's your typical about window that would be found in any program by hitting help, then about this program. I am using no chrome on it so I'd like to just be able to click it and have it close.

On a less important note I'd like to center the window on the stage when it pops up. Right now I'm just using the x and w properties to get it close to center on my monitor but obviously that won't work for everyone. Below is the code I've tried. No luck whatsoever. Window pops up but stays up if I click it. Any help as always would be AMAZING!

Flex :: Air Native Window CloseHandler Does Not Work?

Feb 21, 2012

In my Flex (Flash Builder 4) Air application, I have a spark window and have set the close="" event handler (also tried the 'closing' event) to a method that pops up an alert confirming if they want to close the window. This worked fine in my normal browser based app as a TitleWindow, but now that it's an Air app with a native spark window, it's not working. I never see the alert dialog, and if I debug trace, it does in fact go in to my close handler method, but visually I can see the window is already gone from the screen. In an AIR application, how do you add a confirmation dialog for when they click the "x" to close the window?

Windows :: Flex - Adobe Air Start Native Window Hidden?

Feb 16, 2011

How do I open a new window as hidden? (note the visible="false")

<s:Window xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"
showStatusBar="false"
resizable="false"
visible="false">

If I declare a window this way, and then call this.open(false);, the window will quickly open and then hide, and then be reshown when I actually display it, I want to do this to be able to load content and fit the window to that size before showing it.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Drag The MenuBar Component From The Component Window Onto Stage

Dec 11, 2004

I'm building this game, and it was working fine, until I used the menuBar component. It's not code related, 'cause i've commented out the script that does things with the menuBar. If I drag the MenuBar component from the component window, onto my Stage , the game refuses to work. If I deleet it (but keep it IN my library), it still doesn't work!. But if I turn the export settings of the MenuBar off, it works! The classes that i'm using for my game are called Node.as, JawBreaker.as The class I want to use to do something with the menuBar is called GameMenu.as (but that doesn't matter, since I commented the calling of that class out).

Html :: Handling JavaScript Calls To Window.open()- Not Using Native Windows - Adobe AIR

Jul 26, 2010

I am developing an Adobe AIR application which uses both native windows and floating panels. Is is possible to enable the creation of a floating window instead of a native window when a JavaScript window.open() function is called?

It is required that all of the floating windows are contained within one native window, therefore the creation of more native windows is not suitable.

I have used a Custom HTMLHost class in order to enable the creation of a native window but I can't work out a way of creating a MDI window instead. I am using the flexMDI framework for my floating panel interface.

MX Menubar Not Collapsing?

Dec 21, 2010

I've got a rollover menu bar of buttons that opens up a list of sub-items below each button when you roll over it. Pretty standard, right? Then once that movie plays (sub-items appearing), a thin box appears both around those items and the menu bar's actual button, meaning that once the mouse pointer moves off of either the button of the sub-items, the movie disappears (that's what my invisible button is set to do). And herein lies my problem.

While the button works almost always, if I drag the mouse pointer very quickly over the active area, the button fails to activate. So I can literally keep my pointer at one side of the screen and race it over to the other side, activating all the sub-menus and making them stick in their 'open' position. Someone on these forums suggested increasing my framerate and I've set this to maximum. It makes the problem less frequent, but doesn't fix it. This problem happens both in the preview window and my browser (Firefox, Vista).So I guess at this point I either need a way to 1) Fix the problem and make them close, either by tweaking what I already have or making a rollover menu by a different means or2) Add something to each item like a 'timeout', where if there's no pointer present for, say, 1 sec, the it closes automatically. But I don't know if such a thing exists, especially in an older version like MX.

Flex :: Internationalizing An Mx:MenuBar?

Nov 11, 2011

Well, I was able to simply enough (after about an hour of googling) implement i18n (internationalization) into my Flex application by having to reverse engineer the Flex SDK and do a lot of digging (a specific question on here helped me a lot! (with some updates for flex 4.5)).The problem is, I can't use my {getLand('key')} bind inside an <fx:XMLList> (how you define the contents of a <mx:MenuBar>. I've included some example i18n below, as well as an example of the menu bar.

<!-- Example of proper (working) i18n -->

Osx :: AIR Application On The Menubar When Minimized?

Mar 27, 2012

I'm trying to look for tutorials on getting my AIR application to OSX's menubar when minimized. However, when I try to search for it, I end up getting examples on doing it for the system tray on Windows and the Dock on macs. I don't want the app to stay on the dock when the window is not visible. I want it to minimize to the menubar instead. EDIT: I don't want to learn about working with the OS X dock (on this post at least). I'm interested in working with the menubar. (See image below.)

Flex Menubar Clicking Event?

Aug 9, 2010

I have a menuBar that looks like this:

<mx:MenuBar id="myMenuBar" labelField="@label" cornerRadius="8" color="black" fillColors="[green, green]" itemClick="menuItemClickHandler(event);"
dataProvider="{menuBarCollection}" change="onTopSelection(event)" />

The XML for my menuBar looks like this:

<menuitem label="Vision">

<menuitem label="About">

As you can see there is Vision and Contact Us but the eventHandler doesn't know when those two are clicked. What is the correct way to implement the eventHandler?

Flex :: How To Add Keyboard Shortcuts To MX MenuBar

Oct 17, 2010

I have an mx:Menubar, which I need to be able to open/expand based on the key pressed. For e.g., if Shift + R is pressed, it needs to open the 'Request' topmenu. Then if Shift + N is pressed, it should load the 'New request' module in the module loader. I've already implemented the MenuBar/module-loading functionality with the mouse, but I haven't been able to implement the keyboard shortcuts. I found a nice sample at [URL].

However, the solution directly performs the action (e.g. Shift + N to load the 'New request' module). The menu does not open/expand when you press the shortcut as though you had hovered your mouse over it (e.g. Shift + R to open/expand the 'Request' topmenu and then Shift + N to load the 'New request' module).

Flex :: Force MenuBar To Always Open Downward?

May 23, 2011

I have a MenuBar which opens downwards except when there isn't enough room to open it. For example, it may have 10 items but there's only enough room to display 4-5. Flex then tries to display the menu above the bar, which is completely off the screen. Is there some property or style I'm overlooking to always force it to open downward?

EDIT: Thought I'd give some clarification as to how I plan to circumvent the issue. If I can always force the menubar to be orientated downwards, I can make it into a scrollable menubar displaying only a few items at worst.
