I am creating iPad application for showing shops in shopping mall as arial view, the application landed with normal size image. When do pinching or zoom in, to expand and show row wise shops, more zooming, it need to show shop wise and click on the shop and show information about the shop and what shop is this. How should i use svg format in this application and how to get the coordinates clicked area. Please help me out to done app? or give any other solution like whether the app may be native or web?
You can try using PaintCode (www.paintcodeapp.com) for that. It can import SVG files and generates resolution-independent Objective-C drawing code on-the-fly.
For the SVG, use a UIWebView... see this article
For the touch events you can use a Javascript framework such as jQueryTouch in coordination with the SVG.
As an alternative, check out RaphaelJS... really nice and works perfectly with iOS.

First and most important: I am by no means a developer. We hired an agency to develop an APP for us, and i was given by a developed solution that i am not convinced if it is the best solution, So i would like to ask you guysfor advice.
Unfortunatelly i cannot put pictures nor links to code for the app, but i will do my best to explain myself:
The problems i encountered are mainly two:
All items appear to have fixed sizes applyed to them: When testing the app on different devices, the size of the elements is not responsive at all. In fact on small devices (Moto G5) There are elements that fall behind the bottom navigation bar making them unaccessible.
Lot of stuff fall below that said bottom navigation bar.
My question is the following:
Is react native responsive?
In web development there is a lot of flexibility when it comes to responsiveness with CSS and JS. Is React native any different? or there is a way to prepare the layout so it fits most of the common sizes without losing acces to interactions?
Hope i explained myself correctly. and again, sorry for not asking a technical specific question.
React Native is designed to be responsive, but it requires a different approach compared to web development. In web development, you can use CSS and JavaScript to make your website responsive, but in React Native, you use a different set of tools.
We have many ways to make the app responsive with the device's large screen and small screen.
Use the Dimensions API: React Native provides the Dimensions API, which allows you to get the dimensions of the screen at runtime. You can use this information to adjust the layout of your app based on the size of the screen.
Use third-party libraries ex: react-native-size-matters, react-native-responsive-screen, ...
Use Flexbox: React Native uses Flexbox for layout, just like web development. Flexbox is a powerful tool for creating responsive layouts that adapt to different screen sizes. You can use the flex property to adjust the size and position of elements on the screen.
In terms of your specific issue with elements falling behind the bottom navigation bar, it's likely that the layout is not taking the height of the navigation bar into account. You can use the Dimensions API to get the height of the navigation bar and adjust the layout accordingly.
I have a question and I need to know if we can apply a morphing effect on a photograph in react native. If we can, can you help me to know how we do it and if we cannot what languages is more adapted for a mobile application?
So in fact I have to make a mobile application that allows me:
To Take or choose pictures.
To Define reference points between the two images.
To Calculate the corresponding animation.
And to Save the animation in a video or gif format.
I have already realized the classes that allows me to take a picture and to access at the gallery. (in react-native)
Without more details is hard to answer but you could try react-native-svg. Here is a link to an example Building React Native Animated Feedback UI
or reactArt Morphing SVG Paths with React Art
It would help if, when you ask, you gave more information though (e.g., the image format, what you have already tried, and research you have already conducted to look into the topic.)
Cheers!
I have a client that adamantly insists on a solution with embedded camera in terms of having a ContentPage with an camera stream and custom buttons and icons, similar to https://github.com/pierceboggan/Moments, or at very least as I understand it seeing as it is a Snapchat clone. And my client wants similar swipe capabilities as to how navigation works in Snapchat.
However, as far as I can tell most of what is utilized in that solution has been deprecated.
I have suggested using the Media Plugin https://github.com/jamesmontemagno/MediaPlugin but they're not satisfied with the camera being pushed on the stack.
I've looked into implementing it natively and using dependency injections but it appears to be an overwhelming amount of work just to implement the most basic functions, particularly for Android's Camera2.
I'm hoping someone can provide me with good news of an easier alternative or an alteration to either Moments or Media Plugin or anything similar that will facilitate the requirements or if my only option is time consuming and complex?
From the code of Moment, you can do what you want to achieve. I did this for iOS.
You will have to create a custom renderer to display the camera page. You will be able to add buttons on top of it.
You could try this example which use custom renderer to add a take photo button and switch camera button on the camera view. Which is able to use on iOS and Android platform.
Main Page:
Camera View with custom button page:
all!
Is there any way to build custom camera component in codename one?
I googled and got about PeerComponents, however don't know how to use it.
I just would like to use it as Label component with 2 buttons (Taking picture button and retaking picture button)
Kindly provide some small sample code for me. Best regards.
[UPDATE]
I need this because of following reason.
First of all, I need square Image taken by camera, and user should be able to know how the picture will be taken.
2 resolutions here:
First, if I have to use full screen camera, it will be better to draw or overlay square rectangle on camera view so that user can know which area will be taken.
Second, if overlaying and drawing is difficult (or should use native code for that), I need some custom components for camera area such like PeerComponent. So I would like to place it anywhere of screen area as square rectangle. Then, users won't need any overlay or drawing something on it because it is already square.
That's all what I need.
Regards.
Yes, it's certainly possible to create a component like this, and we do intend to create one at some point in the future. You can beat us to the punch.
First, you should familiarize yourself with how native interfaces work. This video is a good start:
https://www.codenameone.com/how-do-i---access-native-device-functionality-invoke-native-interfaces.html
This series of blog posts demonstrates how to wrap 3rd party SDKs into codename one on Android and iOS.
https://www.codenameone.com/blog/integrating-3rd-party-native-sdks-part-1.html
https://www.codenameone.com/blog/integrating-3rd-party-native-sdks-part-2.html
https://www.codenameone.com/blog/integrating-3rd-party-native-sdks-part-3.html
Although it doesn't include an example with PeerComponent, it is helpful for getting a grasp on the process. Adding peer components into the mix is really just a matter of returning the corresponding "View" type from a native interface. On Android, that is an android.view.View, on iOS it is a UIView, in Javascript it is an DOM element, in UWP it is a FrameworkElement, and in the simulator, it is a javax.swing.JComponent.
This blog post does include an example of a peer component, but it is targeting UWP:
https://www.codenameone.com/blog/uwp-native-interfaces-mix-c-java.html
Once you have a grasp of the material, you should look at relevant examples. Currently the most complete example I'm aware of of a cn1lib that implements a native peer is the Google Maps lib:
https://github.com/codenameone/codenameone-google-maps
You can see the Android native implementation here, and the iOS native implementation here
You may want to refer to the existing code for image capture in Codename One as well.
Android: https://github.com/codenameone/CodenameOne/blob/master/Ports/Android/src/com/codename1/impl/android/AndroidImplementation.java#L5788-L5811
https://github.com/codenameone/CodenameOne/blob/master/Ports/Android/src/com/codename1/impl/android/AndroidImplementation.java#L5701-L5714
Though it uses intent to open the native capture dialog, so it may not be too relevant.
IOS: https://github.com/codenameone/CodenameOne/blob/master/Ports/iOSPort/nativeSources/IOSNative.m#L2879-L2927
I am trying to design a feature in my application for the iPhone that simulates the Springboard feature (Main menu of the iPhone that allows you to view more apps), or the way Weather application works that allows you to flip between views.
Does anyone have any samples of this how I would go about doing this. It's seems very trivial but I am wondering if I am missing something that is already available either as an Apple example or someone who did a tutorial on this.
The image below show how the user would use it.
alt text http://www.agilitesoftware.com/SpringboardExample.png
As they slide their finger to the right (or left) the other image would begin to show up. And it would animate smoothly. The faster you swiped your finger the faster it would move to the next view.
Update: The other feature is that it should mimic the same feel when you slide your hand across the display that is snaps to the current view into place. It should not keep sliding across if there is more than 1 view to the direction you swiping your finger.
I've seen other applications use this so that is why I am asking.
This is accomplished using the UIScrollView with the pagingEnabled property set to true. Just add each of your views, adjust the contentSize, and it will automatically "page" to the width of the screen across the content.
There is a sample app (with code) with exactly this functionality on the iPhone developer site on Apple.com (I believe it's called "PageControl".) - I'd suggest checking it out.
d.
I'm writing an app that uses a similar UI. As NilObject recommended, we're using a UIScrollView with pagingEnabled=YES.
You may also be interested in this example code involving just two child views. I'm trying it out now; it's an interesting technique but I've had to write some additional special-casing code for some odd situations that resulted.
There's also another question on this site that asks about creating a grid of icons like the home screen.
I would check out Joe Hewitt's code from the Three20 project for this. It provides a nice interface and further refinement of the UIScrollView implemented as TTScrollView and TTScrollViewDelegate, TTScrollViewDataSource.
