Is there a control in Sencha Touch to show a passcode field like shown in picture below?
No theres no native component who does exactly this. But you can build it by yourself: its a form with 4 input fields and a dozen buttons. See documentation for more details: http://docs.sencha.com/touch/1-1/#!/api/Ext.form.FormPanel
No, you have to build and design this one completly by yourself.
Note: To get rid of the browser controls, you have to enforce that the application is running form the homescreen. You can control (with some Javascript) if the application is running MobileSafari or as a "Web App". (see: http://cubiq.org/add-to-home-screen as an example of such an implementation)
But, however, I would not recommend using such a component. A) This can confuse people and B) Can intent users to type in their regular passcode. As a developer I wouldn't be comfortable with that situation.

On Android, toast notifications work differently to UWP. It simply shows a little black popup message over the top of the app. In UWP, toast notifications are indistinguishable from push notifications from the user perspective. Is there a standardized way in UWP to simply show a quick notification inside the app that will disappear after a few seconds and not interfere with the user's experience? I mean without it looking like the user has received a push notification?
This article doesn't seem to hint at anything like what I am talking about.

The UWP Toolkit provides an InAppNotifications control for this.
http://www.uwpcommunitytoolkit.com/en/master/controls/InAppNotification/
In many cases, the Snackbar class supersedes Toast. While Toast is currently still supported, Snackbar is now the preferred way to display brief, transient messages to the user.
Take a look at Showing Pop-Up Messages to find out the most common use cases.
We ended up building something as part of our Xamarin UI library to handle this.
The code can be found here:
https://github.com/MelbourneDeveloper/Adapt.Presentation/blob/master/Adapt.Presentation.UWP/Adapt/Presentation/UWP/InAppNotification.xaml.cs
There is a sample in this repo:
https://github.com/MelbourneDeveloper/Adapt.Presentation.git
Note: the same is for Xamarin Forms, but if you crack the code open, you'll be able to figure out how to use this for any UWP app.
I am trying to create an interface that is similar to the interface on this website for the skill tree: http://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree. What is the best way to go about doing this and have the same or similar user interaction. ie. you click on a node and it activate or deactivates it. The movement of the tree and zooming on it would be nice as well. Would like to try to stay away from webView as I am thinking about features I want to add. Thanks in advance just want to see what a good way to do this is.
you can use webView and have almost a copy-paste of the presented webpage html source and load it.
However with native components you can have better performance, but it will "not a copy"
Native componets:
IIViewDeckController for iOS
iHasApp for iOS
iHasApp for iOS
There are more on that side. Consider a combination of they,
So I'm just getting used to and getting my arms around the new "panel-based" App scheme released with the 5/5/2012 version of Rally. At first it was a bit frustrating to lose the window real estate when I've been accustomed to full-page iFrames.
I am curious however - from a desire to optimize the way I use real estate onscreen for an App page - I would like to setup and utilize a multi-panel App whose components can communicate. For instance, I'd like to have one App panel display some control widgets and perhaps an AppSDK table, and a second App panel display a chart or grid that responds to events/controls in the first panel.
I've been scanning the AppSDK docs for hints as to how this might be accomplished, but I'm coming up short. Is there a way to wire up event listeners in one App panel that respond to widget controls in another?
We have not decided the best way to have the Apps communicate yet. That is something we are still spiking out internally to find the best way to do it.
Each custom App is in an IFrame so figuring out how to make them communicate can be a bit tricky. Once we figure out a good way to do it we will be sure to let you know.
Has this topic, "app Communication", been addressed yet? I would to have one Custom Grid show User Stories. When a user story is selected another grid show the related tasks.
I'm now developing an app on iOS. With some reason, I want to use AssistiveTouch UI in my app. For example, there will display a button in my app like AssistiveTouch, if anyone press this button, four buttons will appear like AssistiveTouch, if anyone press one of there four buttons again, some action i set before will excuse.
Does apple support api about this? Or Is there any source code available?
You would have to reimplement this from scratch. There is no public API for either accessing the existing Assistive Touch feature (it has to be turned on by the user in the settings) or for creating a similar UI.
I need to develop a simple webapp that allows the user to highlight a couple of words in the file (text or HTML) that he can load from the screen, and then right-click and have some options show up to choose from.
When she chooses the option , the text of it is added to the file shown on the screen,right after the highlighted text, inside some parenthesis or similar.
Is Ruby on Rails a suitable platform for developing such an app?
Is Grails more suitable ?
(Assuming similar level of knowledge in Groovy and Ruby)
In both cases, I'd appreciate pointers to gems/libraries I should be looking into for these tasks.
Thanks!
I'm not 100% sure I understand your requirements, but have you considered integrating a WYSIWYG (what-you-see-is-what-you-get) editor into your web app? Something like CKeditor is open-source, and effective.
You could load the file into the editor and setup a custom context menu like described in part 6 of this tutorial. So when the user right clicks in the editor, the custom context menu item could be configured to facilitate the insertion you are looking to accomplish.
I agree with corroded's advice to choose a language/framework you know and can work better in, as you'll be able to achieve your desired functionality through a variety of languages/frameworks.
Best of Luck!
Find a language/framework you know and can work better in. Also, you're gonna need some javascript magicks so I suggest using jquery. Here's a link on how to do your right click action: How to distinguish between left and right mouse click with jQuery
I think the function you describe is more about client user-friendliness than server processing. I think it's can only be done with javascript/jQuery or similar tools.
Same as tmarsden, I think a good way to do that is integrating a WYSIWYG free editor. I have done it before with TinyMCE, by writing a custom plugin for this tool. If you choose using Grails as server technology, you can take a look at TinyMCE plugin for Grails.
