Datagrid for flex mobile apps

Hello,
Since in-built Datagrid component is not optimized to be used in flex mobile apps, what is the best alternative we can go ahead with?
I have seen some of the posts which says that we can use List. But I'm still unable to find how List can be used. As we would need multiple columns, should we be using multiple Lists for each column?
Kindly let me know if any of have have got this working and how.
Appreciate your help..

Anyone please?:) Flex HarUI ??

Two styles for a native look (Flex Mobile App)?

Hello,
is it possible to use two styles/looks for the same App, that this one will look native on iOS AND on Android?
Or will I have to build the same App twice to get this?

Flex mobile app - which data grid control to use?

Hi,
Trying to build my first Flex mobile app in FlashBuilder 4.6 and I need a grid control to display a 2 dimmensional array of 6 columns x 50 rows.
The user doesn't don't need to have any interraction with the grid except for scrolling the rows.
I was looking at using dataGrid component but adobe doesn't recommend it for mobile apps.
Is there a grid component that is recommended for mobile apps?
Thanks

Here it is.
// Show empty grid to start
private function initGrid():void
    const dataArray:Array = new Array(1);
    var values:Array = new Array(1);
    values[0] = "";
    dataArray[0] = values;
    grid.dataProvider = new ArrayCollection(dataArray);
// Build array and feed it to the grid - 50 rows x 9 columns dataGrid (grid)
protected function FillGrid():void
var rows:int = 50;
var columns:int = 9;
// rows array
const dataArray:Array = new Array(rows);
// Get rows
for(var row:int=0; row<rows; row++)
const arrLine:Array = [columns+1];
arrLine[0] = row+1;
for(var col:int=1; col<columns+1; col++)
   // columns array
   arrLine[col] = Math.floor(Math.random()*10);
dataArray[row] = arrLine;
// At this point the multi dimensional array is assembled, now we connect it to the dataGrid
grid.dataProvider = new ArrayCollection(dataArray);

How to remove Button from Flex Mobile app actionbar with AS3?

How exactly would i remove a Button from the actionBar "actionContent" in a flex mobile app?
I tried these:
    this.stage.removeChild(menu_btn);
    this.removeChild(menu_btn);
    stage.removeChild(menu_btn);
    this.stage.removeElement(menu_btn);
    this.removeElement(menu_btn);
    stage.removeElement(menu_btn);
I'm not having any luck with those. Im guessing where it is located in the actioncontent isn't considered the stage. Any ideas?
    <s:actionContent>
                        <s:CalloutButton id="menu_btn" icon="@Embed('assets/images/menu/menu_btn.png')" visible="false">
                                  <s:VGroup>
                                  <s:Button id="btn_one" label="Button" />
                                  </s:VGroup>
                        </s:CalloutButton>
              </s:actionContent>
The actionContent is setup like that, I know like with most mxml stuff I could give it an ID to reference it but im not sure how how to give the action content an id number `<s:actionContent id="testID">` does not work. So how can i access this to remove it? making it invisible isn't cutting it i need to actually remove it.

Does this do what you are looking for?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:View xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
        xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" title="HomeView">

        <s:Button id="excess" label="excess" />

How to use OneDrive for Business mobile app with SharePoint 2013 on-premise?

Hi All,
I have a SharePoint 2013 (with latest December updates) that host a dedicated personal web site for users.
The OneDrive portal works fine and users are able to sync their files with the OneDrive client for Windows.
Now I want to test the OneDrive for Business mobile app on Android, but there is no option to specify the "personal" portal URL.
It asks only for domain credentials.
Does I need to configure specific records on my public DNS to allow mobile users to sync their files?
Thanks

I can confirm that with iOS you can connect to your SharePoint server through the advanced options.
But the very strange thing is that the OneDrive version for Windows Phone 8.1 is limited as the Android version.
This has no sense.
Why does Microsoft should limit the Business functions on its mobile operating system, and not on iOS?
Another strange thing is that configuring my Exchange account, Windows Phone 8.1 informed me that it has connected OneDrive for business (but is a fake information).
See attached image.
If I open the built-in OneDrive app, it give me the option to add a OneDrive for business account, but is only for Office 365 users (like with the Android version).
I thing that Microsoft should let at least to Windows Phone users to connect to on-premise SharePoint sites.

Flex Mobile App eats memory on device

Hi,
I have my flex mobile app that manages a lot of bitmapdata objects. Every bitmapdata is disposed after use. It's a multi-layer drawing app, and I have many SpriteVisualElements displayed on the screen. Every SpriteVisualElement contains 4 SpriteVisualElement that I use to paint different images. The problem is that on device (iPad2) the app eats a lot of RAM. It's not a memory leak problem (the memory is properly released when I return to the first view). I don't know what to do... please help me!
ps: on Flex profiler the app seems to consume 6 times less RAM

oooooh nooooo
you have to pay Apple first
and then request a certificate and provisioning file
and then try and figure out how to convert the certificate to a .p12 file
and cross your fingers and hope they will allow it in their store
and you have to own a mac, although there are some convoluted ways to get a certificate using a pc you still cant get onto the store without a mac

Cloud for Customer Mobile app - Customization Options

Hello,
Can anyone please provide more details on the customization options for Cloud for Customer Mobile apps?
1. Is this a native application (which requires native language coding) or a hybrid/HTML5 based application.
2. Are customization's made to the browser based Cloud for Customer application for desktops also pushed out to the mobile apps?
3. I see the mobile app is available for iPhone, Android and iPad devices at this time. The iPad application has offline capabilities. Is this going to be offered to Android and iPhone apps soon?
Thanks,
Amandeep

Angela,
Can you clarify one thing for me in regards to adaptations made by an administrator. Example. If I as administrator create a new tab on the account view and then add some field extensions and publish, I can see those changes on the iPad but not the iPhone via the native app that is downloaded. It appears that the iPhone app has very limited features as compared to the iPad.
Can you confirm?
Thanks,
Jeff

Flex mobile app for Kindle Fire? is it possible?

Hi, I read this in the kindle amazon developer faq, is it possible to develop Flex 4.6 mobile apps for Kindle fire? even thought it doesn't show up in the
list of devices?
any Gotcha's I need to look out for?
Is Adobe AIR pre-installed on Kindle Fire?
Yes, developers can publish Adobe AIR 3 applications for the Kindle Fire by packaging them as ‘captive runtime’ applications. However, these captive runtime applications will not support on-device debugging.

How can I have html5 audio continue to play in background in iOS7 from my flex mobile app

I have mobile app I've developed in flash builder 4.6 (flex 4.12 sdk) and I have a stagewebview component which contains HTML5 audio (mp3 retrieved from my web server and streamed / played via the app)... I want to have the ios version of the app CONTINUE to play the mp3 / html5 audio when the user presses the home button on their iphone or opens another app... so that when multitasking, my audio continues to play (where theres no other NEW audio started, for instance).
I have added the following to my manifest but it still doesnt do what Im after. I used this in another mobile app where I just play audio from the url directly in flash builder (i.e. NOT via webview component) -- but here it seems the webview suspends (Im guessing)...

Is there a way around this so my audio continues to play? My test device is an iphone 4 running the latest version of ios7

You can import audio files into Logic (as easy as drag and drop). You can download these loops from the Internet from a variety of sources both free and paid. Just do a Google search for those.
Once you've imported the file into Logic Pro, right click on the audio region and scroll down to the "Convert" option about halfway down the menu. The top option will be "Add to Apple Loops library" - click this, and it'll add the file into your Apple loops.
It won't affect the other loops in the library.

Converting Burrito Flex Mobile App to Desktop

Hi Guys! Have just developed an app for Android using Burrito. It works nicely on a phone but it is also great as a little 'widget like' desktop app.
Is there any way to package it so that it may be distributed as an Air app that runs exactly like it does when run in emulation mode (adl) from Flash Builder? If not, what is the simplest path to convert the <mobileApplication> to a <windowedApplication>?
Thanks,
Richard
Update: Surprised no one has answered this. I am new to Flash Builder and I figured you guys would know. Have been looking at viewstacks in standard Air apps and trying to figure how to use this to achieve the same effect as a mobile app. Looks like quite a lot of work to rewrite the app to Air on the Desktop ... is there an easier route .... anyone?

Hi Richard,
I was able to complile and deploy my Android app using command line air/android packaging and adding required air swc's to my project. I used the following packageApplication.bat(downloaded from livedocs) to package my MobileApplication as both an air app and android:

I then did a diff between a Flex Buritto Moblie/AIR project library swc's included and identified swc included in AIR and missing in mobile. I updated the project libraries by adding the following swc's:
sparkskins.swc
utilities.swc
aircore.swc
airframework.swc
airspark.swc
applicationupdater.swc
applicationupdater_ui.swc
Then performed a clean build and ran packageApplication from my bin-debug dir and was successfully able to install and run the mobile application on the desktop :-).
Being new to supporting mobile phones, tablets, TV screens along with our web and desktop clients I am not yet sure how we will structure our projects and get maximum code reuse and UI consistancy across these form factors. I have already created a common library project containing all remote stubs, value objects and common utilities and am still trying to figure out how much mileage I can get out of my mobile views. I like the View Navigator and ActionBar navigation on all screens we support and am thinking to extend the ViewNavigator and add additional states along with the 'portrait' and 'landscape' currently offered, like 'portraitPhone', 'portraitTablet', 'portraitTV', 'portraitPC' and leverage my existing mobile views to use these states to adjust the UI layout to accomodate the new realestate... but still learning...
Hope that helps!
Cheers,
Greg

Rangrajan,
If you have the complete URL to the file; for example http://forums.adobe.com/filename.pdf
or C:\users\yourname\filename.pdf
Although I have not used it, you can pass the URL to Drumbeat Insight iFrame
You can try their product, get prices for source code or library here: http://drumbeatinsight.com/products
They offer email support for their products.
You can make your own iFrame, with several sources. Here is some background.

Let me know if this solves your file issue.
I need to write a server-side app to listen to my web service, upload the PDF, then write a temporary file.pdf to the server,
before my web app can load the PDF into a web hosted iFrame.
Adobe needs to make this easy (and I even know some developers in the San Jose Adobe headquarters).

How do I get someone to respond to my question here?
Let me try again.
With DW CS5.5 when I try to insert a PayPal button into a table (which I always did with DW8) the table in Design View gets scrambled, making it unusable. Please would one of you out there who is much more knowledgeable about DW than me try it and see if there is a solution? If you create a new HTML page in Design view, create a table in it, place the insertion point inside one of the table cells, go to the code view and locate the insertion point there, then paste the PayPal button code at that point. Here's the code:
<form target="paypal" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick">
<input type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id" value="XSXQ9CUMUVLQC">
<input type="image" src="https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_cart_LG.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!">
<img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1">
</form>
Now go back to Design view and see how it looks. If it acts the way it does for me, the table is no longer visible, but if you go to Live View everything looks fine with the table and the button inside it. Of course, I can't design in Live View.
PLEASE can someone out there help me.
Many thanks.

Windowed Application for Flex Mobile Project

I have a project intended for both deskotp and mobile, and so I began it as a Flex Mobile project. I then imported the source into a Flex Air project and everything has been working great--until I added cut and paste functionality using the NativeApplication/NativeWindow model. On a Mac, because there is a default set of menus, this works just fine, but on a pc, the menu is not present unless you define it. My top level class is a ViewNavigatorApplication, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to get my NativeWindow NativeMenu built. I have tried plugging code into creationComplete, initialize, preinitialize, but nothing works. I also tried putting a WindowedApplication around the ViewNavigatorApplication, but that too failed.
So is there a way to make this work? While menu support would be nice, I would settle for just shortcut key support.
Thanks in advance,
Adrian

Umm, overall it's doable but you may come up against two or three hurdles:
The program may have to run for hoursThat may require keeping the phone handset connected to a charger, especially if the display backlight is configured to be on continuously.
a sample rate of 20Hz from the sensor.You'll have to cross that bridge when you get there, but I suspect that many handsets won't be able to handle receiving, processing and displaying of data every 50 ms.
log the data and produce simple statistics from a session.Keeping all data in memory probably won't be feasible; writing it to the record store may make the program still slower, further limiting the sampling frequency that can be handled.
In future all Java ME related questions should be posted on the [CLDC and MIDP forum|http://forum.java.sun.com/forum.jspa?forumID=76].
any pointers as to how to beginIf you have never programmed in Java, go through [The Java™ Tutorials|http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/index.html].

Authentication Mechanism for Our Mobile App

Hi All,
We developed a mobile app with SAP SRM System as backend.
Java Adapters is used in the front end to access SAP Backend in the form of Web Service URL, which is nothing but FM in the form of URL.
The FM in our application, takes only the User ID, who logs in as the input and returns the data of the user as expected.
When the Web-Service is called, it is accessing the SAP SRM backend DIRECTLY.
So, we have to give SAP Backend Credentials to the WS to return the output.
Is there anyway by which, the user can login the mobile app with his user ID and some other password set by him in the front end login application (which can also have "Forgot Password?") BUT NOT SAP Backend password, as the user id will be consumed in the back-end by the Web-Services.
Hope I am clear:)
Thanks & Regards,
Pavan
