Playing HTML 5 animations/ interactives from AIR mobile app

Hi,
Is it possible to play/ launch HTML5 animations and interactives [drag n drop, cloze, etc] from an AIR based mobile app supporting iOS and Andorid devices?

Hi
It seem's to be a common issue of ghosting itemrender.
In flex item renderer is reused to keep memory performance.
You can try this fix
1- you can fix it by turning the "virtual layout" property of the llist to false;
But it will decrease the performance, because you turn off the behavior of reusing item renderer
2- you can override the "set data(data:object)" function of your item renderer class and move the "field=data" assignement inside it.
3- Or you can use a dataChange event handling function instead of the creationComplete.
I hope it's help you

Need HTTPService and play video in flex 4.6 Air Mobile App

We are porting a flex 3.2 app to mobile app. The 3.2 app uses mx.rpc.http.HTTPService to send XML requests for data and launch video web pages. Will a flex 4.6 Air Mobile app be able to do the same? If so, what replaces mx.rpc.http.HTTPService? I read that mx components will not work in Flex mobile apps.

HI,
Its working fine.And the mxml components which are displayobject should not be used in the mobile application except the chart.
So nothing wrong with using "mx.rpc.http.HTTPService",you can also use <s:HTTPService/>
Also there is a nice way to see which components should be used or which not for the mobile application.
Simply mouse over on the component when you have used it.You can see a message on that if that is not optimized for the mobile application like for the combobox you can see this message:-
"Adobe discourages using ComboBox when targeting profiles: mobileDevice."
While this is not the case with <s:HTTPService/>.

Open Android Market and Apple App Store from AIR Mobile App

I have two versions of my app, one is free and one is paid. I want to show links to paid version in the free version of the application. I want to open the link to the paid app directly in the market or app store. How can I do that?

Here is what I had used on a lite version of one of my apps, when you click that it opens the native app store app and links right to the app you want to sell to the users.
function fl_getFullVersion(event:MouseEvent):void
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pop-goes-the-bubble/id452505669?mt=8"), "_blank");
So swap your app name and id and thats your link for itunes.

How to use ScaleNine themes to skin an Adobe Air Mobile App

Hi,
I'm rather new to Adobe Air development But I really like it! Now that I've created my app I would like to skin it. I've found ScaleNine (http://www.scalenine.com/gallery/gallery-1.php) which has ready made cool skins for Flex and Air. I downloaded the samples and they compile and work beautifully. HOWEVER: I can't seem to be able to use them to skin my Air mobile app.
Can anyone post an example ViewNavigatorApplication themed with one of the themes there? this one (http://www.scalenine.com/themes/blend/Blend.html) looks as though someone tailored it to my app :-)
Thanks a lot!

I don't know how your application is structured, but if you can split sections off into separate SWFs(plain AS3 document) then you could host those section SWFs online and require the user to download them on first run.
You could use the FileReference object to download the SWFs, save them to the File.applicationStorageDirectory, and then display/load them up with the Loader object when needed from the app storage directory. You would possibly need to check to see if the files are present at every boot of the app though as a user could "Clear Data" or "Clear Cache" of the app in the Settings of their device and one or both of those could/would delete the downloaded files.

How to play different HTML 5 animations interactively.

Hi all,
I have created 5 different animations in Edge Animate. and now i want to play each animation one by one , everytime user clicks on the screen.
What should i do?
i created a new file to assemble different animations (EXPORTED symbols) .
STEP 2 : I placed all the animations sequentially over the timeline and added a STOP trigger between every two animations.
STEP3: I added an action -PLAY over every animation.
Now what happening is : First animation Plays well --- It stops --- now when i click on the screen -- the next animation appears like a thumbnail...( ALL STATIC ) and so on..
Am i approaching this the wrong way.
It would be very great if i can get a solution ...
Thanks and regards.

Hi Sudeshna,
Just one more query.
The sample u provided solved my entire user-interactivity and animation part.
i even published and tested my web application on different devices and it runs nicely.
The new problem is that audio file is not working on i-pad and i-phone. The sound works only on windows.
I went through other discussions on the forums also and found that sound would not play on ios
is there anyway i can enable sounds on ipad/iphone ??
Thanks and regards

Air Mobile Apps cannot support printing ?

Dear all,
I am developing a writing notes application in Flex Mobile Apps for android and ios.
How can i allow use to print out the notes written?
Anyone can guide me how to achieve the printing to the printer?

I think you will have to extend your project by using Native Extensions, since that functionality is not built into AIR mobile. To learn more about ANEs, visit http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/articles/developing-native-extensions-air.html

I don't know if you fixed it already by this time or not. But here is my findings anyway, to be able to inject the security header correctly in any SOA Gateway service, you need to have your Mobile Application Secured, meaning that there is a prompt for username/password when you open it.
Then you will have to make a Proxy service for the webservice you are using from apps. And you must create it with a SOAP Handler also and write below sample code in the handler to inject the security header in the SOAP call. At last, you are going to deploy this proxy service to your Application Server.
These steps were taken on a Glassfish server not Weblogic. I think there is an easy way for this if you are using Weblogic..
Sample handler is below:
package com.mobile.xxsoap;
import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.Set;
import javax.xml.namespace.QName;
import javax.xml.soap.Name;
import javax.xml.soap.SOAPElement;
import javax.xml.soap.SOAPEnvelope;
import javax.xml.soap.SOAPFactory;
import javax.xml.soap.SOAPHeader;
import javax.xml.ws.handler.MessageContext;
import javax.xml.ws.handler.soap.SOAPHandler;
import javax.xml.ws.handler.soap.SOAPMessageContext;
public class CustomSOAPHandler implements SOAPHandler<SOAPMessageContext> {
    private static final String AUTH_PREFIX = "wsse";
    private static final String AUTH_NS =
        "http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-secext-1.0.xsd";
    public boolean handleMessage(SOAPMessageContext context) {
        try {
            SOAPEnvelope envelope = context.getMessage().getSOAPPart().getEnvelope();
            SOAPFactory soapFactory = SOAPFactory.newInstance();
            SOAPElement wsSecHeaderElm = soapFactory.createElement("Security", AUTH_PREFIX, AUTH_NS);
            SOAPElement userNameTokenElm = soapFactory.createElement("UsernameToken", AUTH_PREFIX, AUTH_NS);
            SOAPElement userNameElm = soapFactory.createElement("Username", AUTH_PREFIX, AUTH_NS);
            userNameElm.addTextNode("redsam");
            SOAPElement passwdElm = soapFactory.createElement("Password", AUTH_PREFIX, AUTH_NS);
            Name passwdTypeAttr = soapFactory.createName("Type");
            passwdElm.addAttribute(passwdTypeAttr,
                                   "http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-username-token-profile-1.0#PasswordText");
            passwdElm.addTextNode("123456");
            userNameTokenElm.addChildElement(userNameElm);
            userNameTokenElm.addChildElement(passwdElm);
            wsSecHeaderElm.addChildElement(userNameTokenElm);
        } catch (Throwable e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        return true;
    public Set<QName> getHeaders() {
        return new HashSet<QName>();
    public boolean handleFault(SOAPMessageContext messageContext) {
        return true;
    public void close(MessageContext context) {
I hope it is clear now...

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?

How can I open files from a mobile app?

I've got a mobile app developed in 4.6. Part of our app includes the ability to store files on our remote servers which users can access. In its simplest form the app displays a list of the files which the user can then click on to open. I tried throwing a navigateToURL which works - although it's ugly as hell. It opens the browser which then throws it to the os. Again, it works, but I know there's got to be a better way.
Files will include PDF, images (jpg, tiff, etc), and Word and Excel docs.
Any suggestions? TIA

Mavericks is the Operating System (OSX).
LibreOffice [free] may be able to open your AppleWorks files but probably not perfectly.
Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but will alter/damage them.

How to track devices in Google Universal Analytics from Air mobile application?

Hello,
I'm using Google Measurement Protocol to collect analytics data from mobile Air application
https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/protocol/v1/
I found that Air application running on iPad 3 not detecting device model in google analytics reports.
I guess it's because Air environment sending incomplete user-agent string.
This is what it sending:
Mozilla/5.0 (iOS; U; ru) AppleWebKit/533.19.4 (KHTML, like Gecko) AdobeAIR/3.1
And this user-agent string sending by Safari on ipad (for comparison):
Mozilla/5.0 (iPad; CPU OS 6_1_3 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/536.26 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/6.0 Mobile/10B329 Safari/8536.25
So Air application knows much less than Safari.
My question is: How to create custom user-agent string in Air application so it contains enough data for google analytics to detect device model?
Is there any solution that will work on most ios and android devices?

I don't know if you managed to make it work, but it kind of worked for me, I did this:
var _urlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest('http://www.google-analytics.com/collect');
                              var uuid:String = 'my-generated-uuid';
                              _urlReq.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
                              var scName:String = '&v=1&tid='+myTrackingCode+'&cid='+uuid+'&an='+myAppName+'&av=1.0&t=appview&cd='+myScreenName;
                              _urlReq.data = scName;
                              var urlLoader: URLLoader = new URLLoader();
                              urlLoader.load(_urlReq);
I say "it kind of worked" because I haven't been able to send custom events yet, butI'm on the right track.

Scrim / Spinner For Adobe Air Mobile Apps?

I'm in the process of learning Adobe Air for mobile devices. I'm using Flash Builder Burrito. I didn't have any previous experience with Flash Builder or ActionScript, but I'm finding it very easy to use (I do have 11 years of programming experience). I'm stumped on something that's usually built into most other mobile platforms -> How do you create a scrim & spinner??? For those who may be wondering what I'm referring to, it's when your screen is dimmed and a revolving or spinning icon is displayed to show that your app is busy.
I tried the following...
1) Create a group that covers the entire view
2) Change the background color of the group to black and alpha to .5
2) Add a spinner image to the group
3) Set the "enable" property of the group to true/false depending on if I wanted it displayed or not
This didn't work at all. Any suggestions would be great!!!

I ALMOST have it working thanks to this great post by Andrew trice. I have two minor issues...
The animated gif won't play. I realize animated gifs probably aren't the way to go in FLASH builder, but it was worth a try. How do I recreate the spinner effect???
The scrim doesn't cover the navigation panel. Again, any ideas?

You can call native code from AS3 by writing an AIR Native Extension (ANE):

BTW: Flash already contains quite a few image processing filters and image compositioning algorithms. They may be suitable, depending on your needs.
