Screenshot of iOS NativeExtension views

Context:

I need to add some user interface elements on top of some Aboriginal points of view.

When you add native components on screen (alerts Native, composer compose SMS-notices, send compose view, MapKit, etc.) they are superimposed on the full application of the AIR.

I have no control over this overlay and so I can not put AIR-interface elements user above these views.

So... what I try to do is:

-take a screenshot (bitmapdata) of the component (e.g.: MapKit, or even the entire screen)

-hide the native element itself

-Add the bitmapdata to the displaylist AIR

-Add the necessary UI during this bitmap elements

-presto

But the native components are not part of the displaylist, so I can't take bitmapdata of them...

So my second plan was to capture the bitmapdata natively as a UIImage, that converting a bytearray and pass it to the AIR.

Then convert the bytearray in actionscript it back an image, etc.

It sounds like a lot of work (I'm not even sure it would work) to get a screenshot of the native view or the entire screen.

Real question:

How do I take a screenshot of my iDevice and use it in flash?

And please don't tell me to use the cameraroll, I do not want to store dozens of screenshots of the user interface to the users device.

Hi Brandov, I posted an example of this on my site. It may require some adjustments for you specific case, but I'm doing this successfully.

See the source here: http://tyleregeto.com/drawing-ios-uiviews-to-as3-bitmapdata-via-air

I hope this helps.

    If the iPhone restarts, it means that you pressed the button too long.  You must quickly press them together.

    If Siri is started, it means that you pressed the home button but not the power button.

    The screen shots work just as they always have done for me.

  • Signature problems iOS Content Viewer

    Hello

    I use a 5th generation iPod Touch to test a portfolio. It seems to me to sign, but it did cool off and start downloading my files via wifi, when I connect. Preferences shows all the options either and it seems do not keep me connected. I left annoyed review on iTunes which I really hope to change soon! I can upload images if necessary!

    What happens, it works on my Android phone, why not not my iPod Touch?

    See you soon

    Ashley

    What is the size of the portfolio? IPhone downloads only folios with a 3:2, such as 480 x 320 aspect ratio. It does not appear any iPad folios. Try to create a simple portfolio in 480 x 320 using the same Adobe ID you used to connect to the viewer and see if it works.

  • Any way to go back to the old mail conversation view?

    Just upgraded my phone to iOS 10, and new mail conversation view is not usable. This might work for personal emails, but for work when I have maybe 10 to 20 emails in a single conversation, it's unmanageable to have to scroll all the way. 1 on 20 may have an attachment you are looking for. I'm very likely going to have to use Microsoft Outlook instead.

    Someone at - he found a way to restore the 9 mail iOS conversation view?

    Apple, please take this feedback from someone who is a strong supporter since the original iPhone. The new view of mailconversation is a big step backwards in usability.

    Thanks in advance.

    Apple will not see your comments here. Back to Apple goes to their site of comments here, http://www.apple.com/feedback , and then click the area on the matter.

    Regarding the threading, if you type on see more in the lower left corner of the mail, it will show everything that the thread. If you look in the upper right corner of the screen, you will see Done. Tap on that and it will return to the last post. If you are simply looking at the Inbox, there will be an arrow to the right of the post office, blue, double-chevron. Press on and it will show all messages for this particular thread and the head of arrow will point down. Tap it again, and the wire will collapse.

  • iCloud, sharing photos for Non - iOS users

    So, I use iCloud for about two years now, and it does for the most part, what I want and need to. However, whenever my family and I go camping during the weekend, take a vacation or just to Barbecue a Sunday afternoon, we have a ton of photos on a large number of devices. For the wife and children, this isn't a problem since we have all of the iPhones and use iCloud. But, it seems that we are facing a problem whenever someone on an Android phone has a few pictures they want help or like to download some pictures that we have added.

    Y at - it an easy way for non - iOS users view and/or edit albums shared iCloud without going through a several-step process (transfer of office, download third party app, etc..)? It is my understanding that an Android user should be able to display/change via a web browser, but don't seems to work. I looked at other cloud services and apps, and major issues, in that I continue to run are:

    1: having to pay another Cloud Computing service, when I already pay for iCloud is not economic.

    2: I find a lot of the photo-sharing applications and services give a lot of storage, but at a cost to the quality of the photos. My wife and her friends are always doing something creative with your impressions so even some 'high quality' compression can degrade enough make it unusable.

    3: I have a hard time to ask someone to download an application, not to mention of asking them to pay for one. Nor am I comfortable someone jump through hoops, just so that I can watch through a batch of photos in the hope of finding one or two which are useful.

    So, is there an easy way to do it, or I'm stuck or wait for Apple to understand a feature like this would be useful or leave iCloud for a solution amicably more cross-platform? I do not understand that Apple needs to focus on the development and support of applications and services for its ecosystem and customer, but would it not make sense to make it convenient for outside users to have a great experience too?

    I don't know what problems you encountered but the sharing Web site works fine for me.

  • EOS 6 d zoom in remote mode live view sharper?

    Hello

    I have this Canon EF 70-300mm Zoom lens on my EOS 6 d, connected via EOS Utility Remote on my Macbook Pro running MacOS 10.9.1. Everything works very well, and I'm really impressed by the level of detail that I can achieve by zooming in on the Moon:

    I thought, that looks really amazing! Imagine what the shot will look like when I break the real photo with these settings. And then I get it. This is a comparison of the screenshot of the Live View Zoom View (left) and the actual shooting (right):

    I tried to change the quality of the image (I tried RAW) does not. I do not know whence the loss of details, I was wondering if anyone here had any idea about this or that she ran into similar problems.

    Thank you

    Michel

    You can try and turn off High ISO NR? at ISO 12800, you can lose a lot of details with NR. The Moon is clear enough, you don't need an ISO high. And the Moon must be sharp, even at slow shutter speed. Try so the slow shutter speed, lower the ISO, turn off NR. Your shot looks like more on NR off focus or camera shake.

  • Cannot use the Snipping Tool/Take screenshots

    After restarting my computer a few days ago, I found that I was unable to use the cutting tool. Whenever I try to use it, my entire monitor turns to a grey color, and some of the text on the tool itself is blacked out. I tried to take a screenshot instead, but the images do not copy, so I can't paste. I tried to install some program of photo sharing, and none so far has worked. They usually give me a black square instead of a picture. I have not installed anything that might explain this recently, and I'd appreciate some advice. (My computer using Windows 7 at the moment).

    Hi Michelle,

    You can capture all of the following types of comments:

    • Free-form snip.  Draw a free-form around an object shape.

    • Rectangular snip.  Drag the cursor around an object to form a rectangle.

    • Capture window.  Select a window such as a dialog box or the browser window you want to capture.

    • Capture full screen.  Capture the entire screen.

    After a capture, it is automatically copied to the Clipboard, and the annotation window. The annotation window, you can annotate, save, or share the snip. The following procedures explain how to use the Snipping Tool.

    Please visit these links for more on Snipping Tool.

    Simultaneously press the volume Up and Down keys. If you have the volume turned itself sufficiently, you will hear a "camera shutter" sound, and a screenshot in PNG format is added to the folder of the camera.

  • version 8.0.2 of iOS on iPad Air, AutoPlay multi - State Object question

    Hello

    I'm having a problem in which some objects multi-state value auto-play and stop finally State do not play in the Adobe Content Viewer (version 32.1.0) iOS on iPad running iOS 8.0.2. On the desktop, I work in an updated version of InDesign CC. Oddly, some objects multi-state (in the same articles) do work: both are looped MSO, but change the DCL of non-working (which consist of a container empty like State 1 and describes the text (no States have applied effects) to State 2) to the loop does not solve the problem.

    I am at a total loss - I have tried to reconstruct the ASM, the reorganisation of States, change timer values, defining the DSO to loop, reverse order... but nothing works. There seems to be a question Content Viewer (version 32.1.0) iOS 8.0.2, IOS because WHO play as expected in the office and on iPad content viewer using earlier versions of the viewer of content on the version 8.0.2 of iOS and iOS 7.1.1 and iOS Content Viewer (version 32.1.0) running on iOS iOS 7.1.1.

    In addition, after reading a folio in Adobe Content Viewer (version 32.1.0) on an iPad to Air and return to the display of the library, the settings gear icon disappears also. Typing in the box where the icon should be always displays the menu. This does not happen on a Mini iPad.

    Any advice would be appreciated.
