Hello to all,

Here is a new DecSoft App Builder with the below changes, fixes and enhancements:


2021.55 (08/10/2021)

* Now the body HTML tag of our apps have a CSS class attribute with the lowercase app's theme name. This class exists from the scratch, that is, once the app is started, and, it's updated with the properly lowercase theme name when we use the "app.setAppTheme()" method. This class in the body HTML tag is quite useful to apply CSS styles specifically to a particular theme and not globaly. For example, this CSS rule: body.slate select {} apply only to the app when the "Slate" theme is set, and not in other case.

* Update the Microsoft Edge Runtime installer to the latest version. This update includes all the supported flavors, that is, the full installer for both 32 and 64 bits. This installer are internally used by the DecSoft App Builder installer to properly prepare the IDE to use the Edge Runtime webview for the apps Debugger browser.

Hello to all,

Here is a new DecSoft HTML Compiler with the below changes, fixes and enhancements:


2021.43 (08/08/2021)

* Add the new app's options Window - Position, which allows to choose if we want that our app's executables window appear centered in the screen or at some specific top and left positions. Before this change the app's executables window appears always centered, but now we can choose between this option and also a specific top and left positions.

* Update the Microsoft Edge Runtime installer to the latest version. This update includes all the supported flavors, that is, the full installer for both 32 and 64 bits and the downloadable installer for both 32 and 64 bits.

DecSoft (In thread: New App Builder 2021.53)

Hello to all,

Here is a new DecSoft App Builder with the below changes, fixes and enhancements:


2021.53 (08/01/2021)

* Fix an bug if we try to access the app variable (properties, methods, etc.) from an app user function called from the app's Mounted event. Before this fixed error we can't access the app variable (properties, methods, etc.) from an app's user function if this function is called from the app's Mounted event.

* Fix an annoying bug which causes that the IDE main form caption change to the number of app user function's arguments total and index when we click into the arguments list of the user function: this information is useful for the IDE internal debugging purpose, but not in other case, like in a program release.

* Remove Apache Cordova StatusBar plugin: "app.cordova.statusbar.styleBlackTranslucent" and "app.cordova.statusbar.styleBlackOpaque" deprecated methods. We can use the already available method "app.cordova.statusbar.styleLightContent()" instead of the deprecated methods.

Hello to all,

Here is a new DecSoft HTML Compiler with the below changes, fixes and enhancements:


2021.41 (07/17/2021)

* Add the new Download sample HTML app. This new sample app show how we can download arbitrary files from a server and then write into the file system. In the sample we download a sample.mp4 video file, however, it's possible to download any arbitrary file, just by changing the specified MIME type for the file. Nothing special is used, just the XMLHttpRequest Javascript class to download the file and the dhc.base64.decodeToFile() function provided by DecSoft HTML Compiler to write the file into the file system. The download can be started and aborted (if you want to allow it) by the user.

Hello to all,

Here is a new DecSoft App Builder with the below changes, fixes and enhancements:


2021.52 (07/13/2021)

* Add the new "darkStyle" property for the Carousel control, which is set to "false" by default. We can set this property to "true" in order to use a dark style variant into the Carousel control for the controls, indicators and captions of the Carousel control. This can be useful if the carousel's images are of light colors, so the dark variant can offer a better visibility of the controls, indicators and captions in the Carousel control. The Carousel sample app includes now the ability to set this new property to to true and false and the help / documentation as well the editor Quick Code List refer to this new control's property.

* Due to some change in the latest version of the Bootstrap CSS framework, the Carousel control don't work as expected with the before used HTML markup. This release enhance the Carousel control HTML markup and put it working again as expected with the latest release of the Bootstrap CSS framework, which is what AB use. Thanks Stefan for the report!

* The VideoPlayer2 sample app use certain third party URL for the played video, and, apparently that third party URL stop to work like before: the sample app has been updated in order to use another third party URL for the video, which works like expected at the time of this AB release publication: a note has been placed in the sample app "comment" to advert the user that these kind of third party URLs can stop to work without advise, so another URL (probably the right one for your own app) can be used instead. Thanks Stefan for the report!

DecSoft (In thread: Sign Android apps)

Hello to all!

See in this new video tutorial how easy is to sign our Android apps with DecSoft App Builder, in order to be uploaded into the Google Play Store. Enjoy it!

DecSoft (In thread: New App Builder 2021.51)

Hello to all,

Here is a new DecSoft App Builder with the below changes, fixes and enhancements:


2021.51 (07/03/2021)

* Add the new "Package type" option for the app's Cordova -> Android -> Sign options. This package type option allows to choose between APK and App Bundle, so now we can generate AAB (Android App Bundle) files of our apps. The Google Play Store only allows to upload AAB files from august 2021, so we are ready now to genereate AAB files for our apps. Note that the AAB files are only created when you provided a signing configuration from the app's Cordova -> Android -> Sign options, and choose the "App bundle" package type option. It's possible to continue creating and signing APK files if we want.

DecSoft (In thread: Your APK require Privacy Policy)

Hello Ade,

I think that if you press the "Learn more" link which appear in your capture, you can got it. This is apparently a particular requirement for the Google Play Store: basically you must provide a Privacy Policy text (if I am not wrong, maybe it's an URL with that text). Please, take a look at this Stack Overflow reply.

DecSoft (In thread: How Do You Do This)

Hello Ade,

AB2 also have a Timer control, so you can use it in a similar way than in your AB1 project. However, maybe a "setTimeout" function can be enough, so you can place the below code in your "view1" Show event:


window.setTimeout(function () {
  app.showView('view2');
}, 10000);

The above code is more or less simple to understand: after 10 seconds (10000 milliseconds), we use the "app.ShowView()" method to show the "view2" app's view.

DecSoft (In thread: How Do You Do This)

Hello Ade,

Maybe this link of the Font Awesome Icons website can be of your interest. If fact you can paste the below code in an AB2 view, so an HTML control will be created, with the "spinners" already working:


<div class="fa-3x">
  <i class="fas fa-spinner fa-spin"></i>
  <i class="fas fa-circle-notch fa-spin"></i>
  <i class="fas fa-sync fa-spin"></i>
  <i class="fas fa-cog fa-spin"></i>
  <i class="fas fa-spinner fa-pulse"></i>
  <i class="fas fa-stroopwafel fa-spin"></i>
</div>
