The preview for Xamarin's android development is in a word, unkind. It has to re render the view everytime and isn't as smooth as the Android studio one.
I keep hearing about XAML previewers. Why can't I preview my .axml files using these applications?

I'm development a app using appcelerator. I need display a url PDF inside this app but android webview dont show pdf.
I try for this pdf into google https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=http://xxx.pdf&embedded=true
But is instable, opening my webview android in white screen.
Somebody have a solution for open pdf into app android using appcelerator?
Thanks.
The Android Webview doesn't automatically load PDF files. You have to either use pdf.js and render it or use this module: https://github.com/SquirrelMobile/pdfview that will create a custom View to display PDF files

Any help about tht issue?
I am new to app development and I am really looking for the best software to build apps. I wanted to know if appcelerator has any watermarks included for the free version. I saw the old ide but I am not sure if the new ide has the same watermark/splash screen.
There are no watermarks embedded in your app when using the Indie Seat license (free version).
When you create a new mobile app (File > New Project) there will be some default splash screens (required by apple/android) with the Appcelerator logo in the appropriate os-named folder. You simply need to create your own splash screens and replace the defaults.
Appcelerator is a great choice if you you know javascript, or start with Xamarin if you are a C# guy.
Would you please let me know how we can set splash screen in Tizen Mobile App? I tried Tizen-manifest. XAML file in splash screen section but when I run the app the visual studio 2017 will close immediately.
Have you successfully added the image resource on Splash screen section ?
1-> Copy the Image ('png' format) to 'Project.Tizen folder' > shared > res
2-> In Visual studio, Right click over xyz.Tizen Project > shared >res in Solution Explorer. Then Add> Existing item > png Image
3-> tizen-manifest.xml > Advanced Tab > Splash Screen >Add
Then the manifest would look something like:
One thing in concern now is the AppControl Operation.
I have not seen any complete Guide on Tizen.NET AppControl Operations yet. Please check out the existing API reference links related if you can manage some clue:
Tizen Platform Specific API: Application
Tizen Platform Specific API: AppControl
Tizen Platform Specific API: AppControlData
Tizen Platform Specific API: AppControlOperations
Otherwise, As workaround you can always try adding additional Xamarin.Forms. Page in the very beginning to generate manual splashScreen Experience.
I want to build a a simple Sencha Touch-2.3.1 application generated by Sencha CMD to run it on
Windows 8.1 Microsoft Surface Simulator.
1-I opened Visual Studio (2013) and created a new JavaScript Windows Store project.
2-Copied the generated Sencha Touch app files to my project.
3-Changed the start page from default.html to index.html.
I then ran it on the simulator, but the application hangs at the blue loading screen with white dots. I opened the js console and found nothing in the log.
Is the approach wrong from the beginning? Sencha Touch team Assume that they support windows 8, but I'm unable to find any documentation illustrating the building procedure.
If any further info are needed let me know, your contribution is highly appreciated.
The issue is the Windows 8 content security policy (CSP).
I have answered similar posts before, in addition to a few blog posts I've written (specific to Ext JS, but the same principle):
Creating Windows 8 Apps with Ext JS
First Thoughts on Windows 8, Visual Studio, and ExtJS
In short, neither of the Sencha Frameworks explicitly support the Win8 CSP... but with a little bit of hacking you can get it to work just fine.
