Ios :: Way To Get Swf Behavior On IPad Via Adobe Flex IOS Packager
Dec 9, 2011
I build Flex applications. One of them shows slides.They're swf's loaded dynamically from a remote server at run-time.My slides are both re-sizable by the end user and animated.This is easy on the PC with all the Flash support.For the iPad I use the Adobe Flex IOS packager.Gets me just about everything I need - except swf's dynamically loaded at run-time.Apple's terms of service do not support it.So I'm relegated to flattening slides into static images which don't scale well when users re-size them and obviously don't show animations.
If I built a native IOS app with XCode I could probably achieve this with KeyNote or something alike.Don't have the time or resources.Has anyone knowledge of a sneaky way to achieve this aesthetic via the Flex IOS packager? Is there some inventive way to sneak swf's in or use another image format like animated gif's or something else I'm not thinking of that might scale well?

I've been porting a Flex 4 codebase to iOS using the adobe packager, but have run into a snag when trying to package our whole codebase. The packager runs for a while and then throws an OutOfMemoryError - even if I increase the java heap size to 4GB. No single piece of code seems to be causing the problem, as it compiles successfully if I cut out large chunks of code, and I can change which chunks I'm omitting. It might be related to the size of the code itself.I've logged a very detailed bug report with adobe here: ou can package to reproduce the issue, a ruby script that generates actionscript codeto generate that AIRI file, and a summary of all of the things I tried before logging the bug.

I would like my application to be able to remain running while the user goes and uses another application. (It will be playing music) Additionally, how to communicate w/ Cocoa Touch from this environment?
If you think this is not possible, which platforms are capable of this (other than the obj-c mac x-code route, which I am trying to avoid)?

I am creating an iPad app with Flash CS5. In my app, I am trying to load some dynamic XML from a server. Whenever I click the button to initiate the load, the app immediately aborts and I am taken back to the desktop. Here is my load routine that is run when the button is clicked:
protected function SendRequest():void {
var url:String = GetURL();
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
request.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
request.data = GetVariables();
[Code] .....
I have tested this app on my desktop computer within CS5 and it works fine there.

Im trying to learn Adobe Flash and making some stuff and that export it to my iPad. It doesnt have to be Shared Object, just read on internet that it could be used. But i dont know.
I need a save and load function. Im gonna explain why and how. Im making a test game. When the player finish a level another level on the "Level select" screen should be unlock.
So, when player open my game first time. Level 2 is locked. When he finish Level 1 he can play Level 2.I got some help with this and got it to work like this:
[Code]...
That means if Player hits goal he get send back to frame 2 and "level2played" gets true and he can click and play level2. But this doesnt ofcourse get saved when the app get closed. So i kinda need it to be saved. So if Player hits goal in level 1, this "level2played=true;" gets saved.

i'm following Christian Cantrell guide for packaging AS3 application for iPhone, but i can't find a way to use the packager for creating an app for testing on device. I've tried with -target ipa-test and -target ipa-app-store but when i try to upload my app on the iPad, iTunes throws an error sayng that i'm not allowed.I've done a simple test using the Packager bundled width CS5 (with the same certificates) and everything gone right.
Is is possible to use CS5 Packager for Flex project ? (i know that flex isn't optimized for mobile)

I have a Tree Control inside my Flex Application which I want to edit on a doubleclick on a tree item. I found the properties doubleClickEnabled="true", doubleClick="startEditMode()", and editable="true". With these functions I can detect a double click and I can change the editable property to true based on a double click. The problem is that after I double clicked on a Item i have to click once more to really enter the edit mode. That doesn't seem to be intuitive at all

I'm not sure exactly where this is happening, but what I'm trying to do is make a scrolling ticker using flex, and it works fine when there is one of them on the screen, but when there are two, strange things happen.The way I have designed this for live updating, when the child of my hbox goes off the screen, I remove it and add another child to the end of it.This happens to reset the X position of the hbox, which isn't too bad, but it also resets the X position of any other hbox I have on the screen.Here is code that demonstrates what I'm seeing:
To use this, run the flex program, then click in the first hbox to set its x position to your mouseX. When the x position of the second hbox (hbox3) is reset, so will the first hbox's (hbox2) X position.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application creationComplete="addToBoxes()" xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="vertical" >
<mx:Script>[code]..............
How can I prevent this from happening, or what is a better way to make an updating ticker like I am trying to do?

I'm having this problem of adding an image to the textArea in RichTextEditor (RTE) on the fly and this image seems to "reset" the html properties of the textArea.
Better explained:
The user starts writing something in the TextArea (with Verdana in size:12 font settings). When he adds an image to the text area, the cursor right after the image gets very small and the font settings are reset to HUM777B in size:2.
How could I avoid this behavior?
It seems Flex adds additional HTML code before the image tag. If there was any way to avoid this I would be able to add my own settings to the tags.

I have this function that fires upon clicks in a particular area of a component I've created:
PHP Code:
private function dispatchDragEvent(e:MouseEvent):void
{
switch (_targetType)
[code]....
For some reason when I test this in Flash it works fine, all traces come through. But in Flex, SDK3.5, when I run debug if _targetType is "assign" everything is fine, but if it is "correlate" that branch of the code fails at the hitTest conditionals. It will trace "should execute one of these", but then nothing else happens. So it's like for some reason Flash is OK with the conditional code, but Flex is not cool with it, and doesn't report anything as to why...

I'm desperately trying to fix a strange behavior in my custom iconitemrenderer list: When I change the view to the view with the list inside and start scrolling, the list gets white for the fraction of a second (apperently completely redrawn), but only once when scrolling the first time after the view change.
[Code]...
I think the problem is in the myList.dataProvider.itemUpdated(oldItem), apperently the renderer thinks it has to redraw everthing, but I have no idea why.. and why only after the view is shown again.if it's a bug or something? how can I get rid of this bahavior or how can I debug this this properly?

I just finished creating a large online flex app with 43 different screens. I am using a mx:MenuBar with four main menus and a couple of submenus to navigate between these screens.I am now trying to convert this into a iPad app as well, but the mx:MenuBar does not appear to be supported in mobile flex. Is there any way I can replicate this sort of navigation system in mobile flex? The user needs to be able to move between any of these pages at any time, and 43 tabs will obviously not work

I am trying to use the spark.skins.spark.TitleWindowCloseButtonSkin in a custom component and make it look thematically similar to how it looks in TitleWindow. Just specifying it as the skin class for a Button works no problem. I also have a .css style applied to all my TitleWindow classes that affects the close buttons in a TitleWindow. If I set the chrome color of the TitleWindow in .css then the close button skin also gets colorized to match this color. My custom component is also using the same style reference as my TitleWindows. But the Button instance inside of my custom component does not get colorized. So while I have blue TitleWindows with blue-colorized closed buttons, I have a blue custom component with a default gray background closed button (on button-press, the gray background appears).
There must be something going on with TitleWindowSkin and TitleWindowCloseButtonSkin via the colorization mechanic but I don't understand what it is. How should I solve this problem? I need to make the close button style in my custom component match that of the close button in my TitleWindows.
Here is a picture of the problem:The TitleWindow is on the left in both pictures. The custom component is on the right.In the left frame, you see the TitleWindow close button in the down position, note that its down state is colorized to match the theme of the TitleWindowSkin. On the right you see the down state of the custom component's close button. I do not know how to colorize the default gray to match the blue theme applied to the custom component.
PS My custom component extends from spark.components.Group. I should also mention that normal Button instances that use the default spark ButtonSkin do seem to get styled properly in the custom component (part of the reason this problem is so frustrating).

Apple says that a 144x144 application icon is now required for the high-res iPad. But adding an <image144x144> element to the application descriptor file in Flex 4.6 gives an error 103: application.icon.image144x144 is an unexpected element/attribute.Is there a workaround for this? Perhaps through the iPhone InfoAdditions area of the application descriptor?

I'm new to developing iOS applications and my school gave me approximately 5 months to develop an iPad application. I have no knowledge or practice on Objective C so since Flash Builder 4.5 allows the development of mobile applications (and I have experiences with Flash Builder), I decided to develop my application on Flash Builder instead.
Everything is going fine until I was told to include a SplitView in my application. I implemented a List on the left side of the application. Clicking on any of the list items will navigate the user to a to another view but i also included and retained the list on the left side of the new view in order to simulate a "SplitView".
Initially it felt as though it will do the job of a SplitView like how it does when I attempted it on XCODE but it doesn't look or feel natural. I found this video which shows that it is possible to create a SplitView on FB but I've cracked my brains and I really can't figure out how it is done.
