How to use UI component with EDK in Marmalade? - marmalade

I need to extend Marmalade for UI component. Find below my requirement:
I need to user WebView component or TextView component of iOS in my app for iPad. I want to know how to achieve this using EDK? I need to show particular UI component at specific location in my app and also need to retrieve data (in case of TextView or TextField).
Let me know whether above functionality is possible or not using EDK. Give me steps and code template for same if possible.
Let me know of further detail is required.

There're inbuilt UI component in Marmalade such as s3eWebView for WebView and IwUITextView for TextView. You can check official documentation which comes with every version of marmalade SDK, for more such UI components.
You can use EDK instead to use native UI component for iOS or Android using objective C (iOS) or Java (Android) too. If you want to learn the use of EDK, you can watch the video tutorial here on Official Marmalade Youtube channel.

How to specify different dock icon in Swift for macOS App

My app icons are a light blue with clear background and I find that it doesn't show up nicely in the macOS dock.
I'm trying to find a way to use a different icon for the dock icon only but can't seem to find a way to do it programatically or through Xcode.
The dock icon I created does adhere to the Apple HIG guidelines however I'm not distributing through the App Store anyways.
Can anyone help me out?
I'm using XCode 13 with Swift 5.
Setting NSApp.applicationIconImage should do what you need.
EDIT: If you need to display a custom icon even when the app is not running, you need to make a dock tile plugin. Unfortunately, documentation on this is pretty scarce, but basically you need to make a plugin target, embed it inside your app's bundle with the extension .docktileplugin, put the path to your plugin in your app's Info.plist under the NSDockTilePlugIn key, and then make the plugin's principal class implement the NSDockTilePlugIn protocol. Also keep in mind that dock tile plugins are not allowed in the Mac App Store, so you'll need to self-publish with a Developer ID certificate if you go this route.

Transparent canvas in flutter

I would like to create an app, that works as a framework for using e.g. the ipad.
That means, that you will start the app and continue working normally with it, while suddenly e.g. animals cross the screen.
Hence the app should create a transparent canvas on top of the ipad user interface where all animations can be played.
Do packages for that exist?
Unfortunately, what you're asking for isn't currently supported in flutter. The closest you can get is notifications at the moment using a package like this
I'm assuming you want to make something along the lines of this goose desktop application for windows. Your best bet in this situation is to go native and maybe even make your own dart package.

Recreating iOS Camera app overlay buttons

I'm trying to recreate the Camera.app buttons and interface from iOS in my own, custom camera application built on GPUFilter. Specifically talking about the Flash, Options, and front vs back camera button toggle that are across the top of the app:
Curious to know if these are built into Storyboards as UI objects or if there's another easy way to recreate these without totally reprogramming. I'm also interested in using the overlay table view that they use (in picture above) for options.
Thanks!
You can using AVCamCaptureManager and AVCamRecorder classes. Apple has a demo program build on its developer site here.

What springboard type UI components is this app using?

What sort of springboard like UI component is this application using?
http://quickbinsapp.com/
It is very similar to the generic iphone springboard / home screen app launcher except this is an application that uses draggable contacts. I'd like to build something similar except instead of contacts have my own custom objects that are draggable around the screen but managed on a grid similar to the springboard / home screen and like in this app?
What should I be reading up on or looking at? I haven't found anything in the SDK yet. Does it have be custom built?
If what you want is springboard-like functionality, the AQGridView code includes an example that's halfway there to what you'd need, and you don't have to pull in all of Three20 to use it. (Three20 projects and UIKit projects don't like to coexist typically.)
Not sure what they're using, but the Three20 project has a springboard-like component

Grid View as demoed in iPad

I'm trying to develop a grid-like application for the iPad. Has anyone seen a control that displays info in a grid? In the demos they use a grid-like layout in both the iBooks store and the pictures application.
Specifically in pictures, they are displaying a dynamic list of data in a grid.
I can work around it, of course, but I'd rather use a control if one exists. Thanks!
DTGridView:

You should try AQGridView it does what you need.
Here are few screens of apps that use this library:
The people who know what controls are or or not in the 3.2 iPhone dev tools have all committed to Apple NDA so we can't tell you.
Steve is always watching.
If you have signed the NDA you should go to the Apple boards and ask.
You can however, make a gird like display very simply with the standard UITableview. Just have a tableviewcell subclass that displays columns. It took me about an hour to reproduce the photo picker display using that method.
Nope, you will have to create your own. People have been writing Home Screen compatible views though, so you might want to search for open source projects with that functionality.
