Hey bilbosax: It's pretty simple to improve the performance of large lists with images. You do this in ItemRenderers: 1. Add ItemRenderer.cacheAsBitmap="true". This also caches all the content as a snapshot for performance. If you will have data changing in the renderer a lot, then you don't

Accessing app bundle_id or package_id at runtime

2017-08-28 Thread Erik J. Thomas
Hey all: Is there a simple way to access a Flex mobile app's bundle/package ids at runtime? Of course I can write the code to parse Info.plist and manifest files on iOS and Android to get them, but it seems there must be a built-in "Flex" way that some great Apache engineer anticipated someone

2017-07-07 Thread Erik J. Thomas
The skin that shows text to the right of where it should in the input field is using the non-mobile "spark" theme. If you want TLF (spark skin if you are running in the mobile theme) you need to set the skinClass to: spark.skins.mobile.TextInputSkin This is the one that displays the text

Re: Visibility Issue with PopUp Component

Hey bilbosax: If you are talking about a Flex Mobile app, just try deleting the contents of the TextInput when hiding the PopUp: private function onCloseMe():void { input.text = null; } When subsequently showing the popup, there will be no text to render and you won't see it. In mobile

Depending on how you set up your mobile project, I believe all controls will use the mobile skins by default. It may be that you have configured your project for spark theme and not mobile. You shouldn't need to use spark theme unless you're building a codebase that can be shared across mobile
