I'm developing a WP8 app, but the problem is that pivot pages sometimes flicker over the currently visible pivot. I tested this on a Lumia 1520, HTC 8S and the emulator. The emulator does not have this issue.
There is no redrawing event or so, no events that I'm using in code are triggered (I keep track of the in the debug console).
Anything I can do about this? I can't seem to find anything.
I know it has been a while since you post your question...
I have the same issue on a WP8 app.
I can't provide you an exact answer for this, but I set all my pivot items Visibility to collapsed and on the SelectionChanged event from pivot control I set the selected item Visibility to Visible.
With this I hope the behavior is no longer visible to the end user.
Did you find a way to solve this issue on your project?
Thanks,

tl;dr:
I'm trying to figure out how to use the DOMFormHasPassword and DOMInputPasswordAdded events in chrome extensions.
I'm trying to develop a password manager extension in chrome for my
school project. To make it, I would need a way to identify a login form and fill it automatically. So far I had relative success, but I encountered a problem: I would scan the page for a login form on page load, so if any form were to be added through javascript my extension would miss it.
I have googled the matter and found the terms DOMFormHasPassword and DOMInputPasswordAdded in some locations online, such as this one that states that the DOMFormHasPassword event was added to chrome, and some sort of an example of its use that I couldn't understand.
I've tried adding the events with document.addEventListener, without any success.
I also encountered the term SpecialPowers that I don't understand, and I think understanding it might solve my problem.
I Would be very grateful if you could even direct me to a documentation of those events, because I can't seem to to find it. Thank you for your time!
this is a weird one.
In our Flash project, we add a listener for stage resize events so we can do some dynamic resizing. At the moment we're not running it in a browser, just testing it in the standalone Flash player, and it has been working fine but recently, for some reason the events are no longer being triggered. What's odd is that it appears to be something code-related because when I switch over to a different chunk of code, the events still trigger - but I can't see any reason for it. The listener is still on the stage and its willTrigger is still true.
I know this is all a bit vague, but any suggestions would be valuable!
Again, just to be very clear, I'm not talking about running it in a browser, so this isn't anything to do with setting the resize settings in HTML.
Thanks
Well, if it were an AIR app i would suggest adding your event listener to NativeApplication.nativeApplication instead of the stage, a long time ago i had a similar intermittent problem and that was the fix. However i think thats only available for AIR. You can try to change your publiah settings to an AIR app just to see if it works. If it still doesnt work id have to assume its something code related on your part. willTrigger sounds suspicious :)
I have a Windows Phone 8.1 Application which is being developed from past one year.
Here's how ToggleSwitch is used in the code
<ToggleSwitch IsOn="{Binding IsSplit, Mode=TwoWay}"
IsEnabled="True"
Foreground="{StaticResource PrimaryColor3Brush}"
OffContent="Off"
OnContent="On"/>
ToggleSwitch is used in a few pages. The behavior of the ToggleSwitch is buggy. The ToggleSwitch does not detect either the "drag" event or "click" event when it is done on the vertical slider of the Switch. The following image shows the arrow pointed to the part of the switch where click or drag doesn't get defected.
This is a problem on every ToggleSwitch in this application.
However when I create a fresh Windows Phone 8.1 project and add a ToggleSwitch, it works smooth as expected. So this way I was able to isolate that the problem is happening only on our current project.
So to debug this, I tried the following
I saw if we had any default styles being applied to ToggleSwitches in our app in general that modified the original behavior - No There was None
I created a fresh new page in my current app where I created only a ToggleSwitch within a Grid - No luck, the ToggleSwitch was still buggy.
I used Blend to edit a copy of the default template of the ToggleSwitch, pasted the same onto the ToggleSwitch on my page - Still, the behavior didn't get fixed.
I tried to see if any of the ancestor classes of ToggleSwitch had been applied a default different Style - No, there was none.
I've spent hours on this but I'm not sure what could be causing the ToggleSwitch to act buggy. I would highly appreciate if anyone has any idea of what could be happening or if they could share a few other things that I could try so that it might fix.
Thanks in Advance.
I have made a chrome extension that I should convert to safari and firefox. That's fine, but I want to have full control over tabs. In my chrome extension I have full control over the tab even if user changes location (index) or drag the tab to a new window. With Safari's API, I'm not sure if I can achieve the same control. I could not find any events that can give me information about these events. I will probably be able to achieve the same control with various tricks, but would rather avoid it if possible. Hope there is someone who has had the same challenge and solved it in an elegant way. thank you in advance.
I'm developing an app that needs to generate mouse events on a window Win32/WPF which may be minimized or hidden from view on the desktop.
I have tried the user32.dll APIs SendInput, SendMessage, PostMessage etc. These work only if the window is visible on the desktop. Would you know about any methods that work for hidden/inactive windows?
I've also tried .NET's UI Automation library. In this case, a window is brought to the front or I'm not able to get a clickable point for the control.
Any ideas how I can proceed? If I can proceed?
I don't know if you're still interested in an answer (I just stumbled upon this question out of sheer dumb luck), but have you tried making a global windows hook?
I have no honest idea on how to properly go about implementing one; but I know you should be able to add a global windows hook to, well, Windows, to listen for whatever events you want (should include mouse and keyboard events!)
Good luck...
