I just created an Adobe AIR app but I found that it automatically docks to the four edges in Win 7. I don't want this feature in my AIR so I can't just disable it in my system. Is there any settings I can adjust to disable it particularly in my AIR app?
Thanks,

I want to know how to find out which version of Flex is installed with Flash CS6 or do I have to install the SDK separately?
I know Adobe AIR 3.2 is installed on in the Flash CS6 program folder as I found the Adobe AIR 3.2 folder in the Flash CS6 program folder.
In Flash CS Preferences, if I click on the Actionscript 3 settings button it shows the Flex SDK path as:
$(AppConfig)/ActionScript 3.0/flex_sdk/4.0.0/
Does this mean that Flex 4 is installed on the computer? I ask this because I couldn't find a folder for Flex 4 SDK.
Also, if AIR 3.2 is installed, do I need Flex?
Can I achieve the same results with AIR 3.2 as I can with Flex?
I want to develop Flash applications that will allow the user to save and load data locally as a text file, create a line chart of that data and then save a screenshot of that chart from within Flash without using any other tool such as the Snipping Tool in Windows.
I did a lot of research on these subjects on different forums, including Stack Overflow, but just ended up more confused than I already was.
Flash is now Animate. It's like photoshop. Photoshop creates images in many forms. Flash/Animate is software that makes .swf, html5 canvas, AIR, Android apps, iOS apps, and more.
Flex is a Flash framework.
The reason you have to mess with the SDK is because you're using an old non-working version of Flash. If you use a working version of Animate, you don't have to install SDKs manually.
AIR is what you want to use. .swf was Flash applications for browsers/web pages. AIR is Flash applications for OSs. AIR creates .exe for desktop and native apps for phones.
With AIR you can make a word processor and image processor.
I'm currently creating my Adobe Air iOS and Android apps with Flash CS 6.
Do I need to upgrade to meet the new iOS 8 and Android requirements? (64bit)
(Is there a difference between apps that get published with Flash CS 6 and Flash CC?)
As far as I'm aware the only difference could be if CS6 allows you to package the app with faster packaging enabled, (a checkbox underneath the drop down menu where you specify the target format, AdHoc, App Store etc.) as this is now a requirement if you use ANE's or are planning on publishing your app on the app store.
I would like to use the Flash Builder Profiler to analyse the performance of an AIR desktop application that ive built using Flash Professional..
The available help/resources for FlashBuilder show how to set up an existing FlashProfessional project inside FB but theres no mention of what to do if its an Air app.
Basically it defaults it to a Web Application.
Ive tried creating a new Desktop Application profile config but it says 'Project must be an Adobe AIR desktop project'. Looking at the project properties under the ActionScript Compiler section it does look to be targeting AIR SDK.
Really stumped with this and so any help appreciated.
If you need to profile your app, ignore anything from Flash Builder or Flash Pro or Flash Develop or IntelliJ or any other IDE. Instead, use Adobe Scout. Adobe built Scout purposefully for Flash profiling, specifically with AIR apps and games in mind. The app is very powerful and should be everything you should ever need to analyze your app. The profilers provided by the IDEs do not even compare, especially when you turn on advanced-telemetry
I am developing a desktop application using Adobe AIR 2.2 on windows 7 OS. By default the style of the window is similar to the windows OS theme. I want to create stylish title bar similar to iTunes. Any suggestions?

Which would be better (performance and development time) for me if I'm creating an desktop application using HTML/CSS/JS?
Is AIR more efficient at Flex and ActionScript than HTML/JS?
I've played with Titanium for a bit, but packaged app is more than 30MB, which is more than the AIR runtime + app. Is it alway that big or am I missing something?
Titanium ships with the entire runtime, adobe air does not. A person doesn't need "Titanium Desktop" installed to run your application.
I prefer titanium over adobe air, even though adobe air may be mature software for the following reasons:
It seems a restrictive, sandboxes and such.
It does not have bleeding edge web technologies, it seems as though adobe air hasn't updated their webkit even since the last version.
It does not require a user to install another application to get an application.
actually it depends on how you bundle your titanium app as well (network install?)
