How to change OS resize settings to exclude AIR desktop app

Hey guys. I'm creating an app that is a little strip across the bottom of the desktop screen. I want alwaysInFront=true but I also don't want it cover up other maximized apps. I want maximized apps to only be resizable to the screen height minus the app height. (kinda like the way the Mac Dock works).
Can AIR (or an extension) do this or am I trippin'?

Just found this post: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9601041/crop-screen-maximized-resolution. Not possible within AIR but could be done with extension.
Anyone know OSX code to do this?

    hi i am new to servlets. i am using tomcat5.0 to run my servlets.i have created two web applications under webapps directorywith the names ourwa and new ourwa.as part of ourwa i have developed a servlet with name Caller that includes another servlet named Calle of newourwa. to do this i got the Servlet Context object newourwa with the code below
    ServletContext application=getServletContext( );
    ServletContext newapplication=getContext("/newourwa" );
    and i included Calle servlet using this newApplication with the code below
    RequestDispatcher rd=newapplication.getRequestDispatcher("/calle");
    rd.include(request,response);
    i am not getting the ServletContext object of newourwa. so i am getting null pointer exception while running the servlet Caller.
    i read the documentation on servlet context inteface.there is a method with the name get Context( ).in this method they clearly specified that "in a security conscious environment this method returns null".
    please help me by giving answers to the following questions:
    1)wat is the alternative to dispatch the request from one application to another application?
    2)how to change the seurity settings of tomcat5.0?

    There has been a change in the Java security settings, see:

  • How to change the equalizer settings in iPod Shuffle 4th generation?

    Hi, i own iPod shuffle 2nd and 4th generation. I used to use Sony and sennheiser earphones to listen to them. The problem is I cant get the maximum performance of the earphones on my iPod, unlike in laptop. It is because I can't adjust the Mid, Bass, and treble level in Shuffle. Does anyone knows how to change its equalizer settings?

    You can't there are no equalizer settings on the Shuffle. Incidentally, if you are just wanting to boost the bass that is not getting the most performance from your headphones that is just making the bass abnormally loud.

  • I have a mac 10.5 and need help figuring out how to change my email settings so it does not automatically delete my inbox every 30 days.  How to I adjust the mail settings?

    I have a mac 10.5 and need help figuring out how to change my email settings so it does not automatically delete my inbox every 30 days.  How to I adjust the mail settings?

    I think it must be an IMAP account then, & in Mail>Preferences>Accounts>Advanced>Keep copies for Offline viewing:>Don't keep copies, then on the Server, or maybe it's just this one itself, but on the Server you have a setting to remove eMails after 30 days.
    If it's a POP account we'd have to investigate that... but you didn't say so I'm guessing here.

  • How do I get Adobe Air Desktop App to notify user that a URL text file has been updated?

    How do I get an Adobe Air Desktop App to notify user that a URLRequest ".txt" file has been updated? via blinking system tray icon or something.
    New to Air and need someone to point me in the right direction. I have been searching web for hours and probably not asking the question right.
    I have a very simple Desktop App that just loads a text file from a web location into a dynamic text field at a set timer. it just repeats this action on the timer. right now every 5 minutes
    What would the actionscript be to tell the Air App to look at the date or time stamp of the ".txt" file and notify user if its new?
    Thanks

  • How to launch an Air desktop app from a second Air desktop app?

    Hi,
    Is there a way to launch an Air desktop app from a second Air desktop app?
    I'm using Air 4 with Flash CS 6 on Windows.
    Thanks

    According to Adobe documentation, AIR doesn't allow you to launch one application using another on desktop. The best bet that I could find at the moment would be to use the File.openWithDefaultAppilcation() function and open a file(like a .doc or .txt file) that has an AIR app set as the default application to use for X filetype. Unfortunately, launching app(.exe, .app, etc) files directly is not allowed. Probably for safety/security reasons. You might be able to get around that with a Native Extension though. Below is a link to the File.openWithDefaultApplication() method which includes a table of all the filetypes not allowed. Tried messing around with some ways around it, but the best I could do was open a new Finder window(testing on a Mac) and highlight the file. The code below assumes that both AIR apps are installed in the same app directory. Not sure how it would work on Windows but the result might be the same. For Mac, no special characters or anything was needed even though the app I was trying to open had spaces in the filename.
    var filePath:String = "file://" + File.applicationDirectory.nativePath + "/App to highlight.app";
    navigateToURL(new URLRequest(filePath));

  • How to change photo size settings on cell phones and tablets

    I've worked in graphic design for many years, but I just encountered a new situation for me.
    In the past, whenever I got photos from a digital camera or even a cell phone, the default pixel settings were more than sufficient to work with. For example, the default pixel settings on my digital camera are 4608x3456.
    But in this situation, I'm getting photos from technicians who know nothing of computer graphics. I need to crop their photos to 640x480. But some of them are coming in smaller than that (one is 234x420).
    I believe they are taking these photos with their cell phones or their tablets (but they could be using different brands).
    So I've been asked to instruct them in how to take their photos so they come out big enough for us to crop to the appropriate size.
    But I always thought that the defaults for all devices that take photos are pretty huge, like my own digital camera. I don't understand why any would come in so small, unless the techs tried to edit the photo themselves before sending it to us.
    So is there a way to change the photo settings on smart phones and tablets? If so, is it pretty similar for different brands, or will I have to research and give instructions for every brand they have?
    Or, do you agree that they might be trying to edit their photos themselves before sending them?

  • How to change the firewall settings to provide remorte access to oracle 10g

    dear all
    I have created the oracle 10g database and it is working properly...but I cant loging with thedata base remotely when the host's firewall is on..when it is off I can connect with the database remotely..how can I change the firewall settings in this case

    You need to configure your firewall to allow traffic on the ports listed in ORACLE_HOME\install\portlist.ini.
    You do not need to allow all of the ports, just the ports you want to allow traffic. For example if you are not using iSQL Plus you do not have to open port 5560 or the range 5560–5579.
    You can find a description of the ports at the following link.

  • How to change the screen settings in my laptop

    Hello. I have a Satellite Toshiba laptop and as my daughter started pressing some buttons she changed the settings on the screen. When I go to my email or to some web pages the page and the letters look bigger and maybe of a different style, although my screen zoom level remains at 100% and then they are too small if I put the zoom at 75%. I tried to change the screen settings through the control panel but couldn't find something useful and then when I tried to restore the system to an older restore point so I can go back to my old settings it wasn't able to do it, even though I' ve tried different restore points (lovely windows!). Anyone has any ideas of what else I can do?
    Thank you in advance!
