Mobile development with Adobe AIR

Navigation

I'm trying to develop a chat, with custom listview for video, images and so on. but it's causing a lot of lag.

Lock all that's the way! Even the touch, when you move from screen to screen.

Has anyone had a problem with this and can you help me? Does every Android application created with Flex Mobile Project or Flash have such problems?

Adobe AIR, by working on a VM, leaves the desired performance in relation to the device's native language (either JAVA or Obj-C). This is further compromised when using many objects on the display stage or a line of code "too long".

"I work with Flash and Adobe AIR and I know how much it bothers, even on Desktop."

Some tips I took to decrease these crashes:

  • Avoid using "alpha = 0" and whenever possible use "visible = false". With alpha, although the object is not seen, it remains on the stage and being rendered. With the visible this does not occur;
  • "Copy" objects and not "Duplicate". Whenever possible use / add the same object on the screen;
  • Beware of using filters and effects in MovieClips and TextFields, such as shadows, beziel, etc ... This in conjunction with a tween requires a lot of processor;
  • There is a hint that helps a lot: render objects on the stage as Bitmap: Properties - > Display - > Render - > Export as bitmap ;

Otherwise I recommend testing on other devices and verifying performance. Many of the applications I created were simple, but without these issues with "lag", I think these tips will help a lot.

Unfortunately, Adobe AIR applications face this problem, that "there is no cure, just treatment."
