BlackBerry 10 SDK for Adobe AIR Changelog

What's new in BlackBerry 10 SDK for Adobe AIR 3.2.1

Aug 15, 2013
  • New in this Release:
  • Adobe AIR Runtime 3.5: Adobe AIR runtime 3.5 is now available for developers using the beta release of BlackBerry 10 OS version 10.2. You can now create applications with Stage3D.
  • Adobe Scout profiling in Adobe Flash Builder: If you are developing an app in Flash Builder using the Adobe AIR runtime 3.5, you can now use Adobe Scout to profile telemetry data for your application. For more information, check out Using Adobe Scout.
  • SDK installation update site: You can now install the BlackBerry 10 SDK for Adobe AIR SDK directly into Flash Builder and FDT using an update site. For more information, check out Install the BlackBerry 10 SDK for Adobe AIR using the update site.
  • Improved code signing account setup: Your code signing account is now associated with your BlackBerry ID, making account setup easier than ever. For more information, check out Signing your application.
  • New APIs:
  • 348672: The in line Text Selection Menu is now available. Use it to make menu options more accessible.
  • 285750: Custom embedded fonts are now available and can be used in Labels.
  • Fixed issues:
  • 413367: If you set an acceptAction on a frame after the TitleBar was created, TitleBar buttons are now added in the right order.
  • 377777: Slider will now animate back to its starting position when disabled and then reenabled. This corrects an offset error in the x axis.
  • 344936: Fixed issue where expandable content overlaps a button. Previously, you had to set the expandedParent if you wanted it to open upwards, but some code paths would not position the content correctly.
  • 344872: Fixed issue where a single action on the action bar is off center. Issue occured when there is no back button on the action bar.
  • 343499: Fixed issue where list items are not visible if the row count*row height of the content is greater then the maxExpandedHeight of the DropDown.
  • 343321: Fixed action and tab overflow button size for the BlackBerry Q10 screen resolution. This caused a slight size difference when going from reserved action space to action overflow button.
  • 337355: Fixed issue with Fine Cursor Control. This issue occured when the FCC is exactly x=0 on the first line, causing it to move the cursor to the end of the line.
  • 334588: Fixed issue where selecting a word and tapping another misspelt word would not clear the selection.
  • 334537: Fixed issue where tapping down or up on the FCC does not move it.
  • 334248:Corrected size of action bar hit area. Action bar hit area is no longer overlapping the back button's hit area.
  • 334054: Fixed shape redraw issue. Issue occured when you resized a text input, either by rotating the device and having it lay out or by explicitly setting the width. The shapes wouldn't get redrawn. This made them appear in the incorrect locations. Redrawing these shapes when the display is validated resolves the issue.
  • 333114: Reserved space in ActionBar is now calculated based on 4 tab slots, instead of 5.
  • 326193: Fixed action bar button spacing. One action bar button is now centered on the entire bar.
  • 233338: With the keyboard set to URL and auto correct on, it should now show predictions.
