I'm on to designing my 3rd app. I have two already in the Android and Apple stores. Fairly simple ideas these were. Now, I've come across a bit of a challenge. I want to design an app that contains a database of text files, many also containing pictures. I'd like to have it where you can view these files on, lets say, the iPad, and then print them wirelessly, or send them to yourself in an email, so they can be printed elsewhere.
I have considered just creating an ebook and selling that on the store, but I don't think apple allows you to print from these books. Has to be in PDF, and having an app would be a much better way of distributing and updating it. My idea is creating something quite siimilar to how Apples 'Pages' works, just without any editing capabilities. Select document and print. Sounds simple enough but I can't find any code or tutorials to help me out with this. What I want to know is... can I add a button, that will open up and use the printing options built into iOS? Is this possible to do in Flash with AS3 or would I need to learn how to use Flash Builder and Flex? Could it possibly be done in InDesign?
I am going to make an Arabic application using Flex builder 4.5. I have two questions that need to be answered What is the difference between ActionScript Mobile Project and Flex Mobile Project. (AS Mobile Project supports iOS and Android but I doubt about it!!)
Is Arabic support available in Flex Mobile Projects or AS Mobile Projects? I know TLF supports Desktop and web apps but does it support mobile platforms?
I have a grails application using jquery mobile. I am hoping to find some way to access the camera on the devices. I thought about using flash to grab the webcam but that obviously wont work on Apple devices. Does anyone know of a way to do it and keep it all browser based? I am hoping that there is a plugin somewhere or maybe html5 has some magic in there that supports it.
View 1 Repliesrecently ive been doing research and testing of Flex Mobile framework for iOS and Android platforms, to see some good results. I could not, however, find enough information (that are not outdated) about Flex Mobile on Symbian OS.
Is it possible, to package Flex mobile application (built in Flash Builder 4.6) also for Symbian OS? Flash builder only offers iOS, Android and Blackberry platform packaging. Does Symbian OS support AIR3 platform? - from what i understand, only Flash Lite is supported. Is Flash Lite capable of rendering Flex Mobile apps?
Can a Flex application that was designed for use on a PC be run on an iPad, iPhone, or Android-based mobile device? Seems like a simple enough question.[URL]..yields a picture of a dude running a (presumably) Flex application on an Android. So at first glance, the answer would appear to be "yes." End of story.
There is so much (mis)information out there on various tech sites that suggest Flash-based technologies simply won't run on iOS or other mobile platforms. Why is this? Perhaps they mean to say that Flex won't run "out of the box" and requires a plugin? Or do they mean it won't run at all?
Every time I think I've reached a definitive conclusion, some post on SlashDot or CNET directly contradicts it. So what's the scoop? Can one take an existing Flex application and run it on iOS/Android? (I realize there are screen size issues to consider so the app might not run effectively. I just want to know if the runtimes are available on the mobile devices to allow the Flex app to launch at all.)
Adobe states that Charts are supported in mobile projects but when I try to change the following working files (created project with File - New - Flex Mobile Project - Google Nexus One):
MyTest.mxml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:MobileApplication
xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"

to Flex Build Path (clicking "Add SWC" button):Then it fails with the error:Could not resolve to a component implementation.
I'm making a mobile application with abobe air and flex.I want to know if it's possible to do it without ViewNavigator, or at least for some part, use something else.
View 1 RepliesI'm working on a mobile app using the Flex 4.5 SDK and I'm trying to figure out the best way to handle notification windows. In most cases these windows will be alerting the user to when something goes wrong. Ex: bad login, no data, cannot resolve server.
I'm using a singleton design pattern, I have a Requests class that handles server calls. Most popups will be originating from this class (IOErrorEvents from my loader being used to access the API). Since this class is a singleton and is used from all Views inside the app it is not aware of applications current view. I'm also not sure having this class keep track of the current view and having it push popups on top of it would be best practice.
I'm hoping that I can use PopUpManager to keep track of where to add popups and what popups are currently on the stage. Though all examples I've seen online about this show static Components being used in a views Declarations tag.
I recently started developing mobile applications using Flex 4.5 with the help of a book, but was unable to find the API documentation for the same from Adobe.
Does anyone know where I can find the mobile development API documentation from Adobe ?
I have been trying to figure out whether it is possible to use only flex sdk for mobile development.Do I really have to purchase and use Flex Builder? are there free tools that would allow me to package my application for, say, iOS or Android?
View 3 RepliesI'm quite new to developing in Flex. I've found out that it's possible to create mobile applications with Flex 4.5. So far so good, I've made an app and it's working well on my mobile phone. But there is one thing that I'm not very happy with. When I'm installing the app I also have to install Adobe Air (stand alone application). So is not realy cool and not the way to go in my opinion because this will look strange to the users of the app. And especially the users which aren't realy 'geek minded'.
Any solutions to this? Is it possible to include or embed Air in the app? It will make the filesize of the app bigger but that's a much smaller problem then having to install a complete different app next to the real app.All the best from NL.
I'm trying to debug an issue on a Flex Mobile project. Specifically, in order to debug this I need to be using a release build for iOS (it is the only way the problem appears). I am having difficulty finding a way to view log messages on a release build. Has anybody been able to successfully see log messages in the Organizer console?

I followed an example on how to make a login system in flex. This example was not made for flex mobile projects, but desktops running in a browser. As I understand I can use the same code but with different components. I keep getting errors. My code is beneath. PHP code for connecting and quering the database, and send result back with xml
<?php
echo "<?xml version=""1.0" ?>
";
$con = mysql_connect("HOST","USER","PASS");

My First thought was that I can't use <mx:HTTPService> and other mx based services in my mobile flex application.
Is there a component I can use in my mobile app to display maps (like Google Maps)? I need the following features:
-add markers / drop pins
-show a path (shape polygon)
the new TextInput component which uses stagetext on 4.6 has this issue where if you bind a variable on it e.g
view1...
and i push a new view e.g view2, and pop it, hence reloading view1. on initial load, I can see that the textinput display the variable abruptly then the text vanishes afterwards..
I'd like to note that the variable is a stored data, and can be access on any view.
I must say that I am reaching the end of my tether with Flash Builder and Flex. Firstly, I have built this wonderful app that I want to start using but it is data driven meaning that when I built it, I created it on my localhost. The PHP scripts were generated from Flash Builder and I have edited them to make them more secure. I have all my services working 100% and I have this brilliant app, but I can only run it on localhost. I have done everything necessary and installed Zend Framework on both servers, I have configured Zend properly but I cannot work out how to change the mobile app to now read from my remote web server.To me this is useless as I want to be able to deploy this app to others to use when they are out and about. how to change it from looking at a localhost to looking to my remote web host?

View 4 RepliesI've looked at a few demos from adobe that show apps built with Flex 4.5 running on iOS from simple list views to video capture. This has made me wonder if its an effective solution to build cross platform mobile apps.
For those of you who have taken Flex 4.5 mobile for a spin, what is your impression on the capability and performance on iOS. Is there anything you can't do with Flex 4.5 mobile that you couldn't with a native app? Are there any limitations?
I have a list in flex mobile project which contains multiple rows. I want to set color of specific rows based on some logic.
View 1 RepliesI am developing a flex application for mobile devices. This application will sync customer data down from an api to the mobile device. But once on the device I plan to hold it in sqlLite DB. How can I secure this data? I know that I could hash it but I guess that that someone would be able to decompile the application and get the hash key. I am new to flex and mobile development.
