ShareThis icons resizing - html

Please I need to know is there any way I can resize ShareThis sharing buttons on my website?
The problem is that it is very small when rendered on a mobile device. I need to make it larger.
Is it possible? or it is fixed and can not be changed since we are retrieving it from the server?

This might be a late reply.
I work at ShareThis, and I believe this is definitely solvable. We have our new SOP (Social Optimization Platform) for customizing your buttons at https://platform.sharethis.com. And you can install and customize your buttons there.
And if you are using reactjs, we recently released our reactjs plugin at https://www.npmjs.com/package/sharethis-reactjs, and you can customize your buttons through the configuration. Find more details in the documentation, and if you have more questions, I'm glad to help.

How to force scroll bars to be always visible in an AIR mobile app?

I am trying to "port" a desktop air app to a mobile one. I need the scroll bars to be always visible so that the user knows that there is more information. How do I force scroll bars to be always visible like the desktop version?
In terms of components in the application, i have a spark List, spark Image and spark DropDownList where i would like the scrollbars to remain visible always.
Googling brings up "http://flexponential.com/2011/07/30/controlling-scroll-bar-visibility-in-a-mobile-scroller/".
I am not an expert so not sure how the sample project in the above link is useful for me.
If it is of any help i am using Adobe AIR sdk 3.1. (I can upgrade if helps solving the problem else would like to stick to it for now. )
Any pointers / help from experts out there?
Thank you for taking time out to read this.

How to hide header when scrolling inside Intel XDK?

I'm trying to hide the header when scrolling down and show it again when scrolling up in mobile. Anyone know how this can be done in Intel XDK app framework 2.x using html + cordova?
I know there is examples like this https://medium.com/#mariusc23/hide-header-on-scroll-down-show-on-scroll-up-67bbaae9a78c but it wont work inside intel xdk for me.
Question, has anyone been able to accomplish this inside the intel xdk + cordova framework, in that case how? Any help or input highly appreciated, thanks!
Yes, it works fine for me, both in the Emulator and in the Debug tab on a usb connected Android device, but I had to include jquery explicitly. I basically copied the code from the link you provided and it worked. If you're using AppFramework, there might be a possible priority issue in the CSS rules, which you should be able to fix by making the scrolling related rules more specific (class scroll or specific ids if necessary). There also could be a conflict between AppFramework and jQuery, but I'd have to see more details to address that queston.
It looks like AppFramework does interfere with header and footer, so you could also try using divs with custom classes or names in place of header and footer elements.
I did have a few bugs, which I tracked down using the Debug tab and the emulator's debugger. The thing to look for is to make sure the class on the header element changes when you scroll up and down. If that is working, then you can check the CSS rules and see if maybe something is taking priority.

Hide/Remove video button from App Bar using CameraCaptureTask

Is there any way to hide or remove the video button from the App Bar on a WP8 application using CameraCaptureTask? Our app only includes taking pictures, no videos. That's why we think it would be better remove the video button if it isn't really a choice. CameraCaptureTask (native task) keeps the video button disabled but visible, instead hide it...
Thank you in advance.
To answer your question in short, no, there is no way to modify a native task in that manner.
That said, there is a way around this, be it a little more laborous.
You're going to need to create your own camera capture page.
Here is the official MSDN Documentation and code on how to accomplish this.
http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/wpapps/Basic-Camera-Sample-52dae359/sourcecode?fileId=62725&pathId=1134966225
If it were me I would make a control that pops open when you need it that does the MSDN example.
Good luck to you and welcome to Windows Phone dev. If you want faster answers hit me up on the tweeter. #Anth0nyRussell

Bootstrap v2: Does hidden code still load?

I'm building a responsive site and I have it set so that when the site is viewed on a mobile phone, I will hide certain code via Bootstrap's "hidden-phone" class. I am using this feature for a heavy slider that I don't to be shown on a mobile phone. But, does the code actually not load or does it load but is not visible? If it does load but does not become visible, I don't see what the point of that is...
Thank you.
Maybe you should think of replacing your slider with a different element instead of hiding it.

An overlay GTK toolbar/widget

I am writing a custom application in C using GTK+2.0 and Cairo. Just for learning purposes (and if successful, then for deployment), I wish to recreate something similar to a overlay toolbar/widget (I am sorry if the terminology is not correct) that appears when a mouse moves over a given area on the window, and disappears when the mouse moves away. The toolbar, as I imagine, should appear on top of the existing widgets without displacing them or altering the widget packing in any way. Is it possible to accomplish? If yes, can you please point me to relevant tutorials/examples and/or outline a way to do the same?
Thanks in advance.
Not sure this is easily doable in GTK2. However, I learned recently that there's the GtkLayout widget which allows pixel exact rendering of widgets, so you can even display some widgets over others. Or you may implement your own container widget.
Please note that since GTK3, there's GtkOverlay which seem to do what you want.
You may also give a look to Clutter, which might allow this. Furthermore, there are projects of merging GTK and Clutter for GTK 4.
The little known GtkHandleBox is capable of doing what you want. I must warn you it is deprecated in GTK+3 because is going against the usual UI direction. Also, the correct positioning will be subject to the windows manager quirks, so I'd expect some issue in this regard.
