Support for Arabic in Flash Builder

I'm happy that Flash supports Arabic now. Previously there were problems with that.This is the reason why I didn't learn Flash. Now that it supports it I'm getting familiar with the technology related and I regard it as my first serious attempt to become a real developer. I have tried all the technologies available like PHP, ASP.NET, Java..etc. but I have found that only in Flex / ColdFusion all the three criteria that I was looking for where available: Both are easy to learn, powerful, and beautiful in things regarding UI and design.
Now in Flash Builder 4, although I can write Arabic and some RTL options availabe, I still have problems with the Flash components:
For example the arrow button of the DropDownList is on the right, but if I want to create an Arabic Flash application it should be on the left. The same for CheckBox, RadioButton, List, and other Components.
Is there a way how to fix that? Or do RTL developers have to wait for coming versions until this is available. I dislike Microsoft but they are strong in one thing: Language support. If Adobe becomes better in that, it would rule the developer world.

To my understanding (I'm just a dev myself) - yes, the flashplayer will continue to be backwards-compatible with content built for old players, regardless of the AS version.

How to display long text in Arabic quickly Flash Builder ?

Hi,
I have prepared an application for Android in Adobe Flash Builder. In application there are prayers in Arabic as a list. In app , short prayers are displaying quickly, but long prayers are displaying after a long time. This is my problem.
I share my project file in addition.Can anybody help me, please?
Note: I used SQLite database in my project as you can see and I used a font to view prayers in Arabic.
Prayers.zip - Google Drive

Kaki,
Delcare a table and getting the LONG TEXT is not the right way of doing this.
You create a TEXT object and change the TYPE to INCLUDE TEXT. Once that is done all you have to do specify the parameters of your long text - TEXT ID, TEXT OBJECT and TEXT NAME. These are the same parameters that you use for READ_TEXT funciton. You don't have to fetch the text manually, it happens automatically.
Make sure this is a part of the main window as this might run into multiple pages.

Ravi

3D content for iOS using Flash Builder? Possible?

Hi,
Is it possible to use Papervision or Away 3D using Flash Builder 4.6 and compile this succesfully for iOS?
I have previously had lots of fun with Papervision and I am just wondering if it is possible to create 3D interface content for iOS and/or Android?
HR

I think Away3D (and possibly PaperVision) uses Pixel Bender shaders. They don't work on mobile devices, AFAIK. But Stage3D is supposedly coming to AIR mobile soon. That should blow the socks of any software rendering. I think Away3D will be supporting it.

Using Flex Component Kit for FlashCS3 in Flash Builder

Hi at all,
i apologize for my english.
I'm using Flash Builder 4 and i've created a movie clip symbol in Flash CS4.
I convert the flash symbol in Flex Component but Flash Builder sends a "Verify Error" because the mx.flash.UIMovieClip class in the Flex Component Kit package is not updated at mx.flash.UIMovieClip in Flex4 library,
Is there a updated version of Flex component kit? At this moment i'ive a 1.1.2 version.
Thanks.

You should be able to get version 2.0.0 of the MXP in the open source repository:

Developing for 'Air for TV' with Flash builder 4.5?

How can I target Adobe Air 2.5 when using Flash Builder 4.5 so I can develop for Adobe Air for TV?
When I change the app.xml file to point to 2.5, I get the following error:
"Namespace 2.5.0 in the application descriptor file should be equal or higher than the minimum version 2.6.0 required by Flex SDK."

I was finally able to get my app on a Samsung TV. Here's some more info on this subject. You actually have to overlay the Air 2.6 SDK - not the 2.5 SDK.
Also make sure when you finally package the TV app to change the application XML to point to 2.5,. During development you can leave it as 2.6.
@see http://learn.adobe.com/wiki/display/airquestions/AIR+for+TV
What tools do developers use to create AIR 2.5.1 apps for TVs?
Developers can use the following tools:
AIR 2.6 SDK
Flash Professional CS5 Extension for AIR 2.5 (now an integral feature in Flash Professional CS5.5)
Flash Builder 4.5
Note: Developers can use the AIR 2.6 SDK for developing apps for AIR 2.5.1 for TV. In Flash Professional, set the publish settings to Adobe AIR 2.5. In Flash Builder, set the AIR namespace to 2.5 in the app descriptor file:
<application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/2.5">.
If you are using Flash Builder 4.5, you must do the following:
Download the Flex 4.1.0.16076 SDK.
Download the AIR 2.6 SDK.
Copy each file from the AIR 2.6 SDK into the corresponding directory within the Flex 4.1 SDK, replacing the Flex original variants.
To use this SDK within Flash Builder, select your project in the Flash Builder package explorer.
Choose Project > Properties to open the project's Properties dialog box.
Select Flex Compiler in the list and then click the "Configure Flex SDKs" link to open the Preferences dialog box.
Click the Add button, browse to the SDK, and then click OK until you get back to the project's Properties dialog box.
Click the "Use a specific SDK" option and then pick Flex 4.1 from the drop-down menu.
You must also replace the default WindowedApplication element with Application in your project's MXML file.

Mobile App prototyping for import into Flash Builder 4

I'm a bit stuck.. I would like to create the graphics for a mobile app in something other than Flash builder. I tried Catalyst, but it won't import as a mobile project.. and now I'm trying Fireworks, but it will only export as an FXG file and I can't seem to import that into flashbuilder..
so what to do??
What can I use to quickly sketch something out and then attach the actionscript for a mobile app in Flash Builder..
Thanks
Todd

With Flex Builder 3 I used to import Web services directly from my file system, is that possible any more?
Thanks,

Scriptable mail client with good support for html and flash

Hi,
on one hand I'm looking for the uzbl/luakit/.. equivalent in the mail client world: I want a very high level of control over how mails are fetched, filtered, displayed, scripts, keybinds, etc etc.
On the other hand I also want the client to handle html mails properly, even when they include html5 sound/video clips and/or flash widgets/videos.
This might sound ironic, but I use rss2email to get all my newsfeeds delivered to my mailbox. I think this makes a lot of sense, a centralized repository for all the messages I want to get.
But those newsposts often contain html5 and flash widgets, which I want to be able to use from inside the mailclient.
Also I expect usage of the xdg basedir spec and sane use of files (a simple text config file, and maximum a few binary files for caches/indexes etc)
A good search system based on sup/notmuch/xapian would also be welcome.
I just can't find a mail client like this. Any suggestions? Maybe anything that's close, so I could hack it a bit myself?
Claws-mail is the least sucky client I could find, but still it doesn't give me the advanced scriptability, it makes a mess in my homedir and doesn't support html5/flash.

Thid may take you a bit away from your current setup, but if you have used sup you shouldn't be too scared ;D
Ive started using mutt a while back, and if properly configured it can do a _lot_ of things and very well at that too!
Anyway, to answer your post:
1) Mutt can be configured to retieve your rss feeds, so you dont need to use rss2email and still get a centralilsed repo for your email and rss and, you will be able to keep your email account uncluttered with rss mail (but thats personal preference).
2) Intrinsically, like all CLI mail clients, butt doesnt show html/html5 or embedded flash in email. /BUT/ you can configure it to use a differen program to handle this automatically.
So, you will be able to get say uzbl, or jumanji or surf (if you're into your lightweight browsers) to open those multimedia emails. Edit: it seems you will probably have to use links2, but you may be able to use other clients (they will have to open as a seperate application though, whilst links2 is able to stay embedded. Maybe this can be done with the other browsers but I haven't tried nor researched this.
Generally as: (in .muttrc)
# enriched messages
auto_view text/html # view html automatically
alternative_order text/plain text/enriched text/html # but save it for last
Credit for that snippet goes to something i found on dotfiles. If I ever find the author's name, I shall edit it in here.
You will also need to create a .mailcap file with the relevant data. A basic google search reveals some good tutorials for this.

Support for Arabic or Hebrew

In the case of languages which are written from right to left (e.g., Arabic and Hebrew), does cFolders UI technology (BSP) support this if the corresponding translation is done?

Hi Dezso,
Thanks for your comments. However, we have situation wherein the BSP technology used is pure html (and not using the library htmlb).
The BSP is based on self-written controls and I could see in an example that these include Tree, BreadCrumb, Group, Table (with selectable rows), Button, InputField, MenuBar (or something similar) and several more.
In such I assume there will arise problems with the layout for right-to-left written langauges like Hebrew.
Any solution proposals would be of great help.
Regards,
Srinivas.

In Arabic environment, ideally, we want to see a left arrow for our icon. How do we do this?
