I am new to the topic and I am exploring this tool, but I have not seen any way to output data within an animation already made in flare.
From some programming language such as javascript, flutter or dart, I would like to do the following: the user writes his name in a text field. I previously have an animation made in flare and at a certain moment of the animation I want to put the name that the user has entered in this animation made in flare.
for example I have the animation of a person showing a cell phone, I would like to put the text entered at a certain point in this animation.
I am relying on this animation:

Is this possible to do?

I am creating a game in flutter in which I want to create my leader board page in which I want to achieve the list like Reorderable widget but in that we drag the tile manually but I need to get it automate ,it should elevate and lower another tiles same animation like Reorderable list but it should be automated
I hope I will find some solution with large community
You can take a look at the AnimatedList in Flutter: https://api.flutter.dev/flutter/widgets/AnimatedList-class.html
When a new value is inserted (or removed), it is automatically animated (and you can of course customize this animation to suit your needs).
I'm not sure how you would handle moving an item from one place to the next in the list, though.
Update
I found this other SO thread which mentions the great_list_view package, in which you can just update your underlying list (with the new score, or sort it again) and it will automatically animate it for you. That sounds like a good option, and the package has recently been updated and has a decent amount of likes on pub.

I want a function in my JavaFX 2.0 program that takes user input and forwards it to a websites textfield, and then get the value the website returns. The website would be a site to check if the warranty for a spesific program is valid.
All the user would need to input is reg. ID and maybe program brand.
I'm just looking for ideas on how to do this, links or even code would be superb. I suspect it won't require that much code, but hey.. i've been surprised before!
Thanks! :)
A possible implementation algorithm:
Load the warranty check page in the WebView.
Monitor the webEngine.documentProperty to check for when the load has finished.
When the load has finished, use webEngine.executeScript to set the text field to the
required value and submit the form.
EITHER
a. monitor the webEngine.documentProperty some more, and, when the document has loaded, inspect the document (using either JavaScript or Java) to see if the warranty is valid.
OR
b. change the resultant warranty display page to call back into Java and notify your app of the warranty status.
Some background info
If you have control over the website page contents, then your implementation may turn out easier. But I think you should still be able to get the result you want without modifying the website.
There were some additions to the recent JavaFX 2.1 release to facilitate callbacks from Javascript to Java. The webview documentation you want to read is the sections "Processing JavaScript Commands" using the webEngine.executeScript method and "Making Upcalls from JavaScript to JavaFX" using JSObject.setMember.
You might want to also take a look at a Sample DatePicker for JavaFX using jQuery UI example I wrote. It demonstrates various methods for loading html into a WebView, invoking functions on the WebView from Java and getting the results of user interactions with the WebView back into Java. Not exactly what you are looking for, but perhaps the ideas in it may help.
Another option you have is just to:
Accept the registration id in a JavaFX control.
Create a java.net.URL and post to the webserver from your java app directly without using a WebView.
Parse the response from the webserver to extract out whether the warranty is valid.
This is the approach I might take for such a task - eliminating the use of WebView completely.
I'm in the process of making my iOS app accessible and I'm nearly finished. My app contains several custom screen transitions, and when VoiceOver is on it seems to pick either the top-leftmost element to describe after the transition or, occasionally, a random element. UIAccessibilityTraitSummaryElement looked promising but as I understand it only works when the app is started, not after arbitrary transitions.
There doesn't seem to be an accessibility trait or property to specify the preferred order that elements are given VoiceOver focus. Is there any way to force VoiceOver focus?
EDIT: iOS 6 is now available, and as mentioned by kevboh, you can now pass an argument when posting a UIAccessibilityLayoutChangedNotification or UIAccessibilityScreenChangedNotification:
UIAccessibilityPostNotification(UIAccessibilityScreenChangedNotification, myAccessibilityElement);
myAccessibilityElement will in most cases be a UIView with isAccessibilityElement set to YES (the default for many views).
Alternatively, you could add the new trait added in iOS6 UIAccessibilityTraitHeader to your accessibility elements' accessibilityTraits, which should have the same result (although I didn't test this yet).
ORIGINAL: There's new API in iOS 6 that can't be discussed here because it is still under NDA, but can be found in the "Accessibility for iOS" video of WWDC 2012 (Session 210).
Failing that though, a workaround could be to manually trigger a announcement to override the default focused accessibility label announcement:
UIAccessibilityPostNotification(UIAccessibilityAnnouncementNotification, #"Your text");
Interesting explanations to force the VoiceOver focus and reorder the elements as wished are provided thanks to this accessibility recommendations site.
NOTIFY A CONTENT CHANGE
When there is a content change in the current page, it is possible to notify the accessibility API using several types of notifications. To do that, we must send the change notification to the accessibility API using the method UIAccessibilityPostNotification.
There are several types of change notifications but the two most commonly used are:
UIAccessibilityLayoutChangedNotification : notifies that a part of the page has changed with 2 possible incoming parameters (a NSString or a UIObject).
With a NSString, the notification behaves like a UIAccessibilityAnnouncementNotification with a VoiceOver vocalization.
With a UIObject, focus is shifted to the user interface element.
This notification is very similar to the UIAccessibilityAnnouncementNotification but should come as a result of dynamic content being deleted or added to the current view.
UIAccessibilityScreenChangedNotification : notifies that the whole page has changed including nil or a UIObject as incoming parameters.
With nil, the first accessible element in the page is focused.
With a UIObject, focus is shifted to the specified element with a VoiceOver.
This notification comes along with a vocalization including a sound like announcing a new page.
READING ORDER
Redefining the VoiceOver reading order is done using the UIAccessibilityContainer protocol. The idea is to have a table of elements that defines the reading order of the elements. It is often very useful to use the shouldGroupAccessibilityElement attribute so we have a precise order but for a part of the view only (the rest of the view will be read using the native order provided by VoiceOver).
The best way to illustrate this feature is the keyboard whose keys order isn't necessary the appropriate one.
Here's the desired order : 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 6, 8, 9, 5.
Two views are created (blue and grey) and we graphically put the numbers in them as defined hereunder :
Illustrations and code snippets (Swift & ObjC) are also available to defining these 2 explanations.
I've been programming for a while, but just recently decided to start developing for Mac OS X. I feel like I've come to grips with the basics of Objective-C and Cocoa development over the past week. I'm planning on making graphics apps, and as such am currently in the process of learning how to control Quartz compositions through a Cocoa app. I went through the tutorial that apple offers (with the Mac Engravings composition), and was able to create that just fine. In order to make sure that I truly understood what I learned, I decided to create my own composition and link it to a slightly more complicated Cocoa application.
Essentially, I have a composition that loads a movie or image through a Movie Loader patch, at which point it applies various filters to the frames before outputting it. In my Cocoa app, I've written code (or rather copied and pasted from other apple examples) that lets a user pick a file using an NSOpenPanel object. The filepath of the file they pick gets placed in a text-box that I placed in the app's window using Interface Builder. I binded the value of said text-box to the "Movie_Location" key in my composition, which is a published input in the Movie Loader patch that I'm using. However, no matter what I do, movies and images aren't loaded into this composition no matter what I try. The only thing that gets displayed is the default image that I have saved in that input from Quartz Composer (or nothing if I leave it blank before publishing).
I've added a Clear Color patch to the composition and binded that to a colorwell in my UI, and that successfully changes the color in my display, so I know that the composition and my Cocoa app are communicating. I've spent numerous hours at this point trying to figure out what's going on, and I've just about given up. Does the Movie Loader have any weird behaviors that I'm not aware of, or is there something obvious that I seem to be missing? I'd really appreciate any help or advice from anybody.
Thanks for reading through this...

There are two things I can think of as reasons why it is doing this:
The file path isn't formatted incorrectly. Try checking backslashes, colons, etc.
The box isn't updating the value. Try literally clicking in the text field and hitting enter.
That's all I can think of without seeing your quartz composition and/or code.
EDIT:
Check the other continuous box, in the general properties.
I figured this out yesterday. spudwaffle's second idea is what was going on. If I were to type a filepath in and hit enter, it would work just fine. I got this to work properly by just removing the bind and instead using the setValue:keyInPath: function that a patch controller offers. That said, is there some way to force a text-box to update? I remember seeing a "continuously update" or something like that button within the bind sub-menu in the inspector, but my code didn't work with that checked either.
Thanks to those of you that tried to help me! I really appreciate it.
Best,
Sami
I have a project in which I would like to programatically create and render a 3d animation based upon input. I originally asked here on stackoverflow if Blender was right for the job, and the response was yes, but upon looking at the API, it says this:
Python was embedded in Blender, so to access BPython modules you need to run scripts from the program itself: you can't import the Blender module into an external Python interpreter.
I want to be able to create and render this scene without having to ever open another program like Blender. Is this possible, and is Blender still the right choice?
Thanks in advance!
At work me and colleague worked on a project that rendered 3d scenes altered externally. We used Python to modify/create scenes, and did the rending on server through the command line interface (no GUI).
You can pass a python script as an argument to Blender in the command line options to
generate your scene objects and do the rendering.
I don't see how you can render in Blender without using Blender.
You can use Blender if you want, obviously this is not your only option.
If you need to
create and render a 3d animation based upon input.
You can go as simple or as you complex as you'd like.
You can use OpenGL in your language of choice (C++, Java, Python, etc.)
and display the animation (with or without fancy renderings).
It's up to what 'render' means to your context.
If you need some nice shading(light, soft shadows, reflections, etc. - ray tracers basically), you can still show an interactive preview to your users and generate the scene
for a 3rd party renderer(like Yafaray, Sunflow, LuxRender, etc. - I've put together a short list of free renders), and show the progress to the users after they've chosen the external render option.
On a similar note, have a look at joons.
