• BB10 Beta4 ActionBar questions

  There seems to be a lot of problems with the ActionBar BB10 AIR SDK 4 beta. I then test the code to create a simple ActionBar:

  package
  {
  import flash.display.DisplayObjectContainer;
  import flash.display.Sprite;
  import flash.display.StageAlign;
  import flash.display.StageScaleMode;
  import flash.events.Event;
  import qnx.fuse.ui.actionbar.ActionBar;
  import qnx.fuse.ui.actionbar.ActionPlacement;
  import qnx.fuse.ui.core.Action;
  import qnx.fuse.ui.core.TabAction;
  
  [SWF(backgroundColor="#777777", frameRate="60")]
  public class ActionBarTest extends Sprite
  {
  
    private var actionBar:ActionBar;
    private var actionBarOverflow:Sprite;
  
    public function ActionBarTest()
    {
      super();    // set up stage
      stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
      stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
      stage.addEventListener( Event.RESIZE,   function(e:Event):void { actionBar.y = stage.stageHeight-actionBar.height; });
  
      // set up overflow
      actionBarOverflow = new Sprite();
      addChild(actionBarOverflow);
  
      // set up actionbar
      actionBar = new ActionBar();
      actionBar.backButton = null;        
  
      if(true) // test: turn tabOverflowParent on/off
        actionBar.tabOverflowParent = actionBarOverflow;
  
      if(false) { // test: switch between actions and tabs
        actionBar.showTabsFirstOnBar(false);
        actionBar.reserveActionSpace(true);
        actionBar.backButton = null;
        actionBar.addAction(new Action("A1", "star.png", null, ActionPlacement.ON_BAR));
        actionBar.addAction(new Action("A2", "star.png", null, ActionPlacement.ON_BAR));
        actionBar.addAction(new Action("A3", "star.png", null, ActionPlacement.ON_BAR));
        actionBar.addAction(new Action("A4", "star.png", null, ActionPlacement.ON_BAR));
        actionBar.addAction(new Action("A5", "star.png", null, ActionPlacement.IN_OVERFLOW));

        actionBar.addAction(new Action("A11", "star.png", null, ActionPlacement.IN_OVERFLOW));
        actionBar.addAction(new Action("A12", "star.png", null, ActionPlacement.IN_OVERFLOW));
      } else {
        actionBar.showTabsFirstOnBar(true);
        actionBar.reserveActionSpace(false);
        actionBar.addAction(new TabAction("T1", "star.png"));

    } // constructor

  } // package
  

  He has a couple of if(true/false) conditions to test different scenarios.

  With actions A1... A12:

  • "Back" button is always reserved, even if there is no back button
  • Only 3 actions are displayed, even if there is room for a 4th
  • Order of measures on ActionBar is incorrect: A4 A1 A2
  • Menu of overflow of action appears in the "extended" form, and not with some icons like waterfalls/Webworks
  • Menu of overflow of action is never displayed on the desktop AIR
  • Action tags do not appear in the peripheral action of 720 x 720 bar

  Tabbed T1... T12:

  • When the tab overflow is displayed again, the before selected tabs have blue border
  • The tab in ActionBar buttons are grayed out sometimes out (but still selectable)
  • If actionBar.tabOverflowParent is defined, menu overflow is never hidden on the selection of the item or by tapping elsewhere
  • If actionBar.tabOverflowParent is not set, the tab overflow is not displayed on the desktop AIR
  • Menu of infinity tab is badly calibrated, making it the last tab inaccessible if overflow is behind actionbar and there are several tabs will fit on the screen
  • Tabs do not appear in the peripheral action of 720 x 720 bar

  Hey Jon,

  Here are the answers to your questions below, or in some cases as to why explanations sometimes. John, with an 'h', has responded and is correct on some of them, but thought I would confirm them as well.

  With actions A1... A12:

  "Back" button is always reserved, even if there is no back button

  [JD] - it is correct based on the directives of UX

  Only 3 actions are displayed, even if there is room for a 4th
  [JD] - ActionBar won't show up to 3 shares.

  Order of measures on ActionBar is incorrect: A4 A1 A2
  [JD] - need to double check the rules on this one.

   

  Menu of overflow of action appears in the "extended" form, and not with some icons like waterfalls/Webworks
  [JD] - menu overflow of Action appears always expanded. I think you are confused with the context Menu, which looks like, but has different behavior.
  You can see that it is the same thing as waterfalls if you add a contact, then select this contact. 3 points in the actionbar button shows the overflow from the action.
  If you long press the contact in the list, you will see the context menu, which is different.

   

  Menu of overflow of action is never displayed on the desktop AIR
  [JD] - in this case is because we have no way of knowing how deep should show the menu to. So we use NativeWindows to display the menu at the top of your application window. Because NativeWindows is not supported on any other mobile AIR platform in addition to BlackBerry, Flash Builder will not be displayed on the desktop. FDT allows you to show on the desktop if you add the following to your app descriptor, extendedDesktop mobileDevice extendedMobileDevice.

   

  Action tags do not appear in the peripheral action of 720 x 720 bar
  [JD] - what is expected. This is the same behavior when you use the ActionBar in landscape on the device of 768 x 1280 as well. It's making the content more room.

  Tabbed T1... T12:

  When the tab overflow is displayed again, the before selected tabs have blue border
  [JD] - corrected in the final version of the sdk.

   

  The tab in ActionBar buttons are grayed out sometimes out (but still selectable)
  [JD] - in this example, it looks like a bug, but it is in fact correct. When the tab overflow menu is fully developed, actions are disabled. In most cases they are not visible because the action bar hosted on the right. Here things look like it is in a weird State, but if implemented properly things work as expected.

   

  If actionBar.tabOverflowParent is defined, menu overflow is never hidden on the selection of the item or by tapping elsewhere
  [JD] - it is because it is expected that you cover the tabOverflowParent with your content. This property is here so that you can control the depth of the menu. Based on the UX guidelines menu should be under your content and the content comes alive to the right to reveal.

  If actionBar.tabOverflowParent is not set, the tab overflow is not displayed on the desktop AIR
  [JD] - we use NativeWindow in this case. Same as above.

  Menu of infinity tab is badly calibrated, making it the last tab inaccessible if overflow is behind actionbar and there are several tabs will fit on the screen
  [JD] - when the overflow tab menu is visible the actionbar should animate the road indicating the correct size of the menu tab overflow.

  Tabs do not appear in the peripheral action of 720 x 720 bar
  [JD] - same as Actions

  Here is a sample of update based on your which helps to show how you really want to set up.

• Question about ActionBar on the first screen of the application

  Hi, I have a question about the actionbar behavior in the first screen of the application

  index.htm pushes immediately main.htm with actionbar. ActionBar clicks and responds correctly until I have add overflow on some buttons.

  When I click on the button of overflow, the overflow is displayed at the bottom of the page, the top of the overflow is put in correspondence with the upper part of the actionbar so buttons actionbar overflowing content is not visible.

  I reproduce this problem with the sample application.

  This is expected behavior? Is there a way around it?

  I was able to reproduce the problem and have connected it

• Question from newbie Javascript RE: Actionbar

  I'm a newbie to all this, so I apologize.

  I use the Sub checklist.js for the creation of checklists.  Can someone show me what command I would put in the section onclick of the script to run a clear list bar action?

  Based on the literature, it does not appear that it is a standard feature (that is to restore all the unchecked boxes.)
  http://dealancer.github.IO/checklist.js/

  The Github page would be a good place to request for it to be added.

  I did some Web Inspectoring on the example provided here:
  http://dealancer.github.IO/checklist.js/

  And although it seems that you can display the individual items via Checklist.checklist.models, it does not appear that there is no built-in feature to change the values such that she is also reflected in the user interfaceprogrammatically, or reset the list.

  Change in blue.

• Missing Actionbar after adding nature blackberry to android project

  Hello everyone, this is my first post and I'm hoping to find a solution to a recent problem I've encountered. I have an android project which supports api level 9 at the level of the api 19. The application uses the appcompat v7 support library I need for backward compatibility. I use actionbarsupport and everything works as expected on the android os and fire, but when I add nature of blackberry for the project and run the application on my playbook (os version 2.1.0.1088) I have strange unexpected behavior. The orientation will automatically be rote from portrait to landscape and then the actionbar will disappear leaving my application in a State were is no longer navigable. If anyone can help.

  Thank you

  Thank you for your reply, I appreciate you taking the time to answer my query. I have now solved this problem, and not surprisingly, it wasn't a question of blackberry but an Android. The problem was with revision 18 of the appcompatv7 library. Once that I have updated to revision 19 the question I had been corrected. This was a question that performs all versions of gingerbread of my application and not only the blackberry version. I had not noticed because I have not tested the application on a device of gingerbread in a few weeks and I had not received all feedback from users.

  I do not plan to update the operating system on my playbook because I want to support older devices too, and in this case if I had a set os to date, I would not have found this question.

  Thank you

• Keyboad & actionbar & 'floating bar '.

  Hello!

  I have a small question about the actionbar, I saw that there is a "bar of floating shares.

  We can see here: http://www.berryreview.com/2014/01/19/blackberry-10-2-1-bringing-floating-action-bar-with-back-butto...

  I also see on my device...

  And now, I would use it for my App. Unfortunately I did not have...

  In the documentation, I can see:

  - https://developer.blackberry.com/devzone/design/bb10/keyboards.html

  That's not possible... But as this function is quite new, it is perhaps only this page which is not up-to-date, or is it?

  Of course, I looked in the doc of the actionbar placement:

  https://developer.BlackBerry.com/native/reference/Cascades/bb__cascades__actionbarplacement.html?f=a...

  But I have not seen what I was looking for...

  So is there a native function for it, or will I detect if the keyboard is visible and make myself?

  Thank you!

  I don't think that has been made available by program yet and maybe never, it might never be a user setting.

• Double Actionbar button

  I have a weird problem with my app Blackberry Cascades. I tried to add a button to actionbar (at the bottom of the application). But when I test it in the Simulator Blackberry 10 Dev Alpha (BB10_0_10.261) it seems that I have 2 (or sometimes 3) versions of the same key, as shown in the image below. While normally, there should be only 1?

  

  So what I do is add a button on my page in QML as follows:

  NavigationPane {
      Page {
          Container {
              layout: StackLayout {
              }
              ListView {
                  ...
              }
          }
          actions: [
              ActionItem {
                  title: "New Event"
                  ActionBar.placement: ActionBarPlacement.OnBar // HERE
                  onTriggered: {
                      var page = newEventPage.createObject();
                      navigationPane.push(page);
                  }
                  attachedObjects: ComponentDefinition {
                      id: newEventPage
                      source: "addEvent.qml"
                  }
              }
          ]
      }
      onPopTransitionEnded: {
          page.destroy();
      }
  }
  

  This code is not much more to add a "New event" button that will connect to my "addEvent.qml".

  But if I remove (or comment out) the line ' Actionbar.placement: ActionBarPlacement.OnBar' (marked with "HERE" in the code above), I get only 1 button, as planned.» But this button is located in the overflow menu, while I want it on the ActionBar inside.

  All versions of the buttons do exactly the same thing (the behavior expected by the way: addEvent.qml of opening).

  What I've tried: "Clean...". ' and then 'rebuild '; It did not work. I also tried to move the table actions in other places, as I thought this might be the wrong place, but that did not help either. Removing the application on the Simulator and then put it back in place.

  I also tried on another computer and another Simulator, as I thought it might be my computer. But I had the same problem there.

  I don't know if this is a bug or not, but I guess I'm doing something wrong, since I don't have a lot of experience in the development of Cascades. I searched everywhere, but do not have someone else with the same problem. I have not tested on a real device, because I have not (yet) a device of BB10.

  StackOverflow link to this topic: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14818434/duplicate-actionbar-buttons-in-blackberry-cascades

  All credit for this answer goes to graymatter for his help (http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Cascades-Development/Duplicate-actionbar-buttons/m-p/2157001#...).

  But I can explain what I did to solve the problem. Apparently, the problem was that I used

  QML-> setContextProperty ("model", model);

  in my C++ code. And I thought that it made a huge difference, so I put this line behind the line

  AbstractPane * root = qml->() createRootObject;

  But apparently, it makes a difference, because then you will receive your double buttons.

  So to solve the problem, simply move setContextProperty lines before the line createRootObject and everything is resolved.

  And the problem I had with 3 buttons, seems to be that I had 2 setContextProperty lines of code behind the createRootObject line. So for each row of setContextProperty, buttons have been duplicated.

  Anyone know why this strange thing that happens, feel free to mention it.

  And to answer the question of BGmot the journal of slog2info gave no information on this issue.

• Question of cloning for SSD upgrade on 12 Macbook Pro

  Previously, I did an upgrade to SSD on my Macbook Air to 2012 according to the instructions of JetDrive transcend. Basically connection via USB 3 and using Mac OS X to clear (and format) disc utilities new SSD, then restore again SSD and then remove the original 128 GB SSD and insert the new 480 GB SSD.  For about a month and so far without problem.

  Now I'm trying to 2012 Macbook upgrade my Pro partner (on 10.11.6).  I got a Crucial SSD MX300 to replace his HARD drive.  Crucial comes with (or recommend) Acronis software.  And a lot of the messages of the forum recommend Carbon Copy Clone.

  My question is if I can use the same method for the cloning of the HD as my Macbook Air (just restore disk of Mac OS X utilities)?  This time, I'm upgrading HARD drive and I don't know if something is different.  At the same time, if I got lucky the first time, I don't not ruin Macbook Pro my spouse this time.

  Thank you.

  Yes, you can use disk utility to clone your MBP wives, but unlike CCC, it will not clone the recovery and Partition.

• Bootcamp Windows 10 question

  Hi all

  Stumbled upon a problem, try to install Windows 10 an end 2014 27' iMac w/retina education runs Yosemite 10.10.5. Bootcamp is V 5.1.4. 32 GB, 3.5 ghz Intel I5. Disk of 1 TB of Fusion. Before you try this, I read the guide of Bootcamp to install windows, but also a number of other tutorials and forum messages about potential problems. This research, I learned that for EDU edition you must change the name of the file from Win10_1607_Education_English_x64.iso to Win10_1607_English_x64.iso. Apparently to have the former name of the file may cause OS X to not recognize the ISO. That fact I started Bootcamp, waited while the software downloaded and created a bootable USB key and partitioned my drive giving Windows 70 GB of space. After that, I got the message that my computer is restarts. Upon restarting, I got the black screen with the blue Windows logo and a spinning loading animation. After a few minutes, a blue screen with a message "Windows has encountered and error with computer and must restart," or something similar. He was pretty quick, so maybe it's not word for Word, but it was not a helpful post in terms of saying something specific. When the computer reboots, I am sent directly to OS X, though a bit slower than normal. I tried to restart with the flash drive to see if the installer would start up, no dice. Try now the Option key at startup, the flash player is not available. Went into my settings to see if I could change my startup on Win disk install USB, no luck it no more.

  Now for the question: How can I get the Windows installation again? What I have to start the process, and if so, what should I use Bootcamp to delete the partition that was created? I have re-run Bootcamp and the only option that is checked is the partition and start and install/uninstall windows and delete the partition.

  Thanks for the help.

  If you use a USB drive, not a USB flash drive, you will have problems. It is recommended to use a 8-16 GB USB2 flash drive.

  If the installation program is located on a USB Flash drive, stop your Mac, connect the USB key, restart and hold down the alt/option key and select the Windows icon in the USB port. This installs Windows in BIOS mode. If you click the start EFI icon, it will install using the EFI mode (faster). You may need to change the partition from MBR to GPT using GPT Fdisk.
