Re: BusyIndicator rotating off-center on iOS

2017-06-16 Thread bilbosax
Thanks for the reply Erik.  I use Flash Builder, but I must not have it set
up perfectly for mobile development because I have been having the EXACT
problems that you have mentioned, namely the busyIndicator and the textInput
skins.  I will have to look into if there is a setting in Flash Builder that
I can check to make sure that mobile skins are the default.  Thanks for
bringing this to my attention!

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 and desktop 
and/or web. I don't know where the theme setting is in your IDE, but in 
IntelliJ it's the mobile theme by default for a new mobile project.

If you run spark them for a mobile project you may run into more issues than 
just the BusyIndicator, for example if you are using TextInput the spark theme 
won't use the StylableStageText which means some of the native functionality 
won't work the same as in a native app.

Also, I'm not real happy with BusyIndicator even with mobile skins because it 
stops rotating on async API calls to servers or whenever doing heavy CPU 
lifting like when encoding a large bitmap to JPG, etc. It's so annoying that 
AIR doesn't use a worker thread for that and give the UI full responsiveness 
all the time to keep the BusyIndicator rotating among other things.

Paul, I thought that the busyIndicator was designed for mobile, so I don't
know why it would be important to use that particular skin, but it
definitely did the trick!!!  Thanks for the help my friend.

Hi Bilbo,

Have you tried applying the mobile skin to the BusyIndicator?

skinClass="spark.skins.mobile.BusyIndicatorSkin"
