Re: Build AIR APP with AIR integrated inside

My problem will be solved if I can find some tool which wrap Adobe AIR and My app in single unit. When we run this unit it will check for Abode AIR in the machine and if it does not find it will first install Adobe AIR and then my app. That all for me. I've done this before, although it's

I'm afraid I disagree. Unless you have proof - other than you just saying it - I really doubt spark improves response time. Here's my take on it.. The default spark theme is fugly, so you'll have to come up with your own skins if you want your app to look somewhat decent. Spark in general

Save the app arguments to a SharedObject (aka Flash cookie). Use the Updater isFirstRun property to check for a first run after an update. If so, use the last saved arguments from the SharedObject. http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/net/SharedObject.html

Re: Remove Flex 4.6 SDK default.css Warnings

If I'm not mistaken, adding the Halo.swc to the theme compiler arguments will get rid of those warnings: -theme=${flexsdk}/frameworks/themes/Halo/halo.swc or -theme+=${flexsdk}/frameworks/themes/Halo/halo.swc Note the = vs +=. And of course ${flexsdk} needs to point to your Flex SDK.

Is there a specific reason your application is sized to 100% of the user's screen? From what I understand you have the main application fill the whole screen but only a small portion (search box) is visible. If that is the case, start your main app minimized and remove it from the taskbar

In that case you can still go for the workflow I described. I'm doing exactly that with two applications I'm working on. For the sidebar, you could dynamically resize it depending on its state. Again, I'm doing exactly that with 2 apps which both have a notifications system. The notification
