Re: [Flashcoders] Mouse.hide() doesn't work in AIR

We've seen something similar when starting up the application from a
launchd script on Mac as well.

Can you report the bug in http://bugs.adobe.com ?

[Flashcoders] Mouse.hide() doesn't work in AIR

2010-06-25 Thread Joe Cutting

Hello,
  I've found a bug in Adobe AIR for the Mac. Mouse.hide() doesn't work.
Apparently this is a known bug that has been around for a while and 
there's a work around here:

http://blog.formatlos.de/2008/11/16/air-hiding-the-mouse/

This works ok as long as you start the AIR file from the Finder by 
clicking. However, if you set it to start automatically at login the 
Mouse.hide still
doesn't work. I've tried using an applescript file which runs on 
login to start the application after a delay and it still doesn't work.


This is a critical piece of functionality for any touchscreen kiosk 
so if anyone has any other suggestions I'd be very keen to know
(I'm more of a Windows type than a Mac one so there may be something 
obvious I've missed).


BTW I've tried this on OS 10.4 and OS 10.6, AIR 1.52 and AIR 2.0 
which are all much the same.

Everything works fine on Windows XP.

Cheers

Joe
