I'm developping an application that needs to run silently in the system tray.
That's why i used this SOLUTION first to hide my application in the System Tray, which is working really nicely.
However at some point my users will need to be notified about things. Like on Skype or Msn, when you get a message you are being notified of it with a popup in the right bottom zone of your display.
I'm looking for a way to reproduce this, i couldn't find anything in the java.awt.SystemTray doc. Is there any native class doing this or should i try to reproduce it by generating a window myself ?
First there is the answer from JavaFX: what is the best way to display a simple message?. This uses a custom popup as javafx from java 8 could not be used by the implementor.
If you can use javafx2 (the one with java 8) you can look at the Controlsfx library found here: Notifications with Controlsfx

I'm using ARM build of JavaFX from Gluon on my Raspberry Pi. It has Virtual Keyboard enabled, so every time I touch an input field -- the keyboard pops up. Is there a way to disable it? I've tried using -Dcom.sun.javafx.isEmbedded=false -Dcom.sun.javafx.touch=false -Dcom.sun.javafx.virtualKeyboard=none but that has no effect.
I need to do this to replace the default VK with a custom one, that supports different layouts and locales (and looks better, tbh). Right now both of them pop up, overlapping each other.
With JavaFX 11 -Dcom.sun.javafx.virtualKeyboard="none" works for Gluon builds. For JavaFX8 I haven't found a solution at the time except rebuilding from source.
Is there a good way to trigger a Windows Store background task when a band tile is opened? And are there any examples for working with the band from a background task with the latest SDK? I have seen mentions of the ability to do so but can't find any code examples of this.
I have a scenario where the tile's content is only valid for a short time (~30 seconds) and would like to wake up a background service on the phone while the band's tile is open to update the content as needed.
I was hoping to find an IBackgroundTrigger in the SDK that would do the trick but no luck there. The best I can think of to fill this need would be to have a task that uses a system trigger and hooks up listeners for the tile opened/closed events. This seems like a lot of unnecessary work for the task though and could end up with unnecessary battery usage on the phone.
Thanks,
Tony
I'm afraid that is not possible. As far as I can see from the SDK, the app on the phone has to be running to allow a tile on the band to send an event back to the phone.
An alternative would be to open your app from the Band using a voice command. Would that solve your problem?
I want to make a tray applet using Qt that will use an output from a bash script to show some basic info. Is that possible to do in Qt? I wasn't able to find any tutorial via google, though.
What about the System Tray Icon Example?
(Please note that the term "applet" is something different than the term "tray icon". The former is used for something more than just an icon and in most cases (which is very system dependent) a background process and placed by the user into the tray bar, where your tray icon is put in the system tray bar by a foreground application.)
I am trying to get the inner active add Api to work with QML. I have found this Nokia example: http://projects.developer.nokia.com/fifteenpuzzle on how to do it. I plan to just use the add widget they use in my own app but when I compile the app it gives this error: "'KErrNone' was not declared in this scope" on anything excpet Symbian and once it runs on Symbian the add area is just black and after a while I get this error: "AdBannerWidget::onNetworkError = "Error downloading http://cdn1.inner-active.mobi/mnt/InnerActive/Resources/USAGC/eng_pic.gif - server replied: Not Found"".
Please help I have no idea what could be causing this, it's probably something stupid but I really need help.
I also get a error while trying to design the qml because of it not being able to "import Analytics 1.0"
I do have a inner active account and I have tried it using my own tag they generated for me but it still doesn't work.
My name is Nirit and I'm a support manager at inneractive.
we just released our new Beta QML open-sourced project, it is now available on your Dashboard (the SDKs tab).
Please download the .zip file and take the time to read through our clear and concise documentation.
If you have any questions or comments, please don't hesitate to contact me.

For the black widget and network error, I bet you have to register first with inneractive to get an actual account.
"KErrNone" seems indeed symbian only. Might be that the project is just no meant to compiled on desktop as such. You maybe would have to #ifdef Q_OS_SYMBIAN some parts of it.
Im having fun toying with AIR and want to use it to create an application for my TV, but Im coping with a serious & dumb problem : TV ergonomics. Indeed, without a mouse, it is all about focus on elements and moving this focus in a natural fashion.
In HTML this is handled by the browsers perfectly, but in ActionScript Im having a real hard time ! For instance, I don't even know how to have an element on autofocus, so that when I load the app there is already something to click on (without it I just can't interact with my app at all!).
Do you have any idea on the best ways to create a listener for the remote controller arrows and OK button (should be enough) so that I never get stuck in the app ?
So whether you have already struggled with that or if you simply happen to know how to play with the focus and setFocus() parts of Flex, your help is very welcome !
I recommend you look at the Google TV Flash template. It's all about controls and navigation. I'm not sure if this works for Flex as I have not done any gtv development yet.
