I don't get the option to run my app on a certain simulator or anything. I'm trying to upload my app to iTunes Connect but it won't even let me.
Try increasing your screen resolution, or making the Xcode window wider. Then it will reappear.
If you can't do either of those (do to screen resolution constraints), then use the Product menu and then the Destination sub-menu as a workaround.
And by the way, this looks like a duplicate Question #31318316

I need a clarification. Today I bought a new Android 10 Samsung device to test apps... and all captured images are shown rotated wrongly inside the Labels. The code is very minimal: takes a photo and then shows it in a Label. It works fine on my iPhone and my old Android device, but in this new Android device the image orientation is not detected correctly by Codename One.
Is it a bug of Codename One or is it something that needs coding in the app?
In the latter case, can you give us a code to take photos in the correct orientation? Thank you.
I think there might already be an issue on that, if not there should be. The gist of it is this... Some modern phones always take the photos in the same orientation and just mark the photo as rotated to X degrees in its tags.
This works usually since most apps know to show the photo rotated. Currently we have a workaround for that in the gallery API but that's a bad workaround. A good workaround would be to check that flag every time we load an image and rotate it dynamically. It would be inefficient but it would solve that problem once and for all.
I was thinking about creating sort of animated screenshots of my app running in the simulator and created some code which is able to record an animated GIF image where I am also able to draw the current pointer as a gloved hand on top.
Then I realised it woud be much better if the pointer was shown even if it is not down.
Therefore - is it possible to enable hover in the simulator?
We have the ability to show it in the JavaSE port but that isn't exposed in the simulator. If you change the compile path to the project you can use:
JavaSEPort.setInvokePointerHover(true);
when orientation changes in android, native android call the destroy method and total new layout is to be made as far as I know. But I think codenameone doesn't do that which is a great thing. But when I checked the cn1 app in devices while changing from portrait to landscape a blank screen is seen for a while and then the orientation changes.
My Problem is that when I have many more components displayed in a form,
the blank screen appears for a longer duration and sometime it hangs. Does it
happen as I don't use Orientation listener methods etc or is there anything I
can do to solve this issue?
I just tried this on my device and it worked fine for the latest build on my Android 6 device. There was the rotation animation from Android where the screen rotated into its new place.
I'm guessing the rendering of your screen is so slow that Android takes too long to draw it and ends up drawing a black screen instead so it can proceed with the animation.
I can't benchmark an application remotely but I suggest going over the performance of your app and making sure it is truly optimized.
I have an android build of codename one
Can i show the command menu through code in codename one for android build?
Right now , i need to click on the menu option to access the commands. Is there any code snippet through which I can make the commands appear on the screen (invoke the menu) ?
Not at the moment since we don't support showing the native command menu and the command menu might not exist (think ActionBar on Android 3.x and newer).
However, showing the "lightweight" menu might work for some cases. Be warned that this is unsupported officially and this is in no way a recommendation to doing this!
You can call Form.getMenuBar().showMenu(), again this will work great in the simulator but on the actual devices your millage might vary in terms of device look/feel.
I am building a mobile application using Flash Builder. I am testing on a Motorola Xoom. When the app opens on the attached Xoom it opens with the correct orientation (landscape), but when it opens on the computer in the emulator it is backwards (Portrait).
I have specified the ratio and orientation in the *-app.xml:
<aspectRatio>landscape</aspectRatio>
<autoOrients>false</autoOrients>
I'm assuming it is a bug but it is possible that I am missing something or that there may be a fix.
In my case, neither was working. So, for the desktop version, I've made an ugly thing: duplicated the aspectRatio property above the others, after title property. I don't know if the position of the property matters, but that way it worked.
There is just one problem with this approach: when building the debug version of your application all works fine (including in mobile), but when you build the release version, an error occurs saying that the aspectRation property is unexpected. Just remove one of them and the build will work.
Just for the register, to make it work in mobile, I had to set the property aspectRatio in the code too, like this:
stage.setAspectRatio(StageAspectRatio.LANDSCAPE);
