Hello Samuel,

Certainly, the samples dialog filter looks into the samples' description / design comment and not in the sample's names, and, since the "languages" word do not appear in the Languages sample (yes, in the next release) you can't find it using that word. Maybe I can also search including the app samples' names. Anyway, it's a good idea to take a look around the samples folder, using the "Explore" button of the samples dialog, for example.

Hello Joshua,

after testing,this occurs when I open more than a AB project simultaneously

How you does to open more than one AB projects simultaneously?

Hello Joshua,

Certainly such error is a more or less common in native Windows apps like App Builder, however, I can't reproduce the problem here nor hear something about in the past. Can you reproduce the problem everytime? Can you please refer here how? Then I will try to fix it.

Hello edunt!

Welcome back again! :)

Hello Joshua,

Please, take a look at the "External" app sample, and, particularly to the "Button2" "Click" event. Take also a look at the External Javascript tutorial.

excellent!Thanks you very much!

You're welcome sir! :)

Hello Joshua,

Yes; apparently the same "trick" can be used with a DropDown button in the same scenario. Take a look at the below sample:

FixedMenu.ab

However, this time we set the "position = fixed" to certain CSS class... and maybe this can interfere in some others DropDown controls.

Hello Joshua,

Thanks. Finally I think I got it. Please, loot at the below attached sample:

FixedContainer.ab

Press the first top button and you can see a Menu. Scroll down the app's view and now the Menu continues there. The "trick" is made by set the "position = fixed" to the Menu, as you can see in the sample's "Inline CSS" option. Hope this can help you in some way.

P.S. Anyway, consider to use an entire view for menus. Some menus can be implemented like that and for sure its a good way to do it, showing the "menu" view as a dialog or not.

Hello Joshua,

I am not sure if attach an "scroll" event to the "window" can be good here. Anyway, can you see what "[ButtonTop]" and "[ButtonLeft]" store? When the menu is shown? When is hide? Honestly I can't figure out exactly what you wanted, I am sorry for that.

Can you please provide here a little app sample so we can take a look?

Hello Joshua,

Certainly something like the below (placed in the view's Show event) do not work as expected:

Can you provide here a little app sample sir? Maybe with a bit of CSS we can get the menu acting like you wanted.

Hello Joshua,

What about to use a Dropdown or Select controls instead a Menu one? Anyway, right now we have no "scroll" events, but we can use "pure" Javascript to attach some app's function to some possible "scroll" event of the app's view. Take a look a this article and please tell me if you have any further questions.

Hello tin,

Certainly we can try it. In fact I remember I try that theme in the past... The problem with that theme is they requires some Javascript stuff too, and, in my tests (if I did not remember bad) finally I can't get it working as expected. But of course you can try it and ask for help here if you find some specific problem!

Hello Eduardo,

After take a look at the plugin's Github page, apparently there is nothing special in the plugin in order to use it in our applications: we just must use the provided Javascript's methods or functions in order to deal with it, always following the plugin's documentation.

First of all, I modify a bit your attached AB project, in order to perform two things:

1º Be sure we start the plugin in the app's Ready event and not the view's Show event, because commonly we need to wait for the app's Ready event in order to deal with Cordova's plugins.

2º As you can see in the app's Ready event I'll check if the plugin is installed or not, and, do not continue if they are not installed.

3º I add the Cordova's Dialog plugin in order to be ready to use: if this plugin is not ready the Javascript's "alert" functions do not work as expected once the application is compiled for Android.

Please, download the modified sample from here and tell me if they can help you in something:

Vuforia.zip

On the other hand, I am not sure if anybody can try with this stuff without having an special hardware device or something like that. If we no need any device, maybe me and others can try with the sample too.

Hello tin,

AngularJS and Angular2 are differents projects and not compatibles at all. We can mix the both projects if needed (because we can expand AB with any HTML, Javascript and CSS), but, probably we no need that. App Builder uses AngularJS as their Javascript two-way data binding library, and, in fact, not too much more. Of course they also uses some of the useful AngularJS provided modules and directives, but mainly App Builder uses AngularJS for that.

AngularJS and Angular2 are not compatibles, and, certanily prepare App Builder to use Angular2 (or any other Javascript library) is not an easy task. Anyway I did not hear that Google abandond AngularJS at all. Out there are a miriad of projects that uses it, and, in fact the latest AngularJS release (included in App Builder right now) has been published a few days ago, and their development continues.

App Builder uses Bootstrap CSS 3 right now and not Bootstrap CSS 4. There is a good reason for that: Bootstrap 4 is in an alpha state yet, and, on the other hand, we uses Bootstrap CSS 3 in some ways than the 4 version can't handle right now, for example, App Builder includes dozens of Bootstrap CSS 3 themes do not available in Bootstrap CSS 4 yet.

great sample!!
Thank you,David

You're welcome tin! :)
