New full animated Toast/Notify

[oVi]

hi guys,

i'm from germany and my english is bad

i have created a first Test of a new Toast/Notify Component.
Now it's a quick and dirty Test, but it works

This 'tool' is running with Ext.ux.MessageWindow extension.

I think a little bit of teamwork an it could be a nice Adobe Air Extension.

Here is the Example:

Air Application: NotificationTest.air
Project files: NotificationTest.rar


This code have a few of bugs/problems, there i hope to solve by teamwork.
- the transparent window must be resize dynamically
- the listener to close the transparent window and disconnect the connection threw both windows must be extend to NotificationManager (if more than one message are shown)

Here a Screenshot:



Feedback, tips and solutions are welcome

Edit #1: add in main.html after win.show(); the following line to set AlwaysOnFront.

win.getNative().alwaysInFront = true;

so long,
oVi

Nice work, I think this should be in the Ext.air library by default.

Thank you for the compliment

But to make this component "Air.lib ready", we must improve the code

What exactly is the difference between your component and the Ext.air.Notify class. I did try neither the one nor the other but thought about implementing this feature to my application.

Thanks in advance

this component has opacity and show/hide animations.
You can extend this component with all your wishes. (the full framework can be run on it)

This component establish a connection thru both windows and you can access functions/classes on both sides.
This connecten is closing automatically by hiding the Notification.

If you would use this component, and you have ideas/extensions/fixes/improvements... please post it here.

I think we can make a wonderful extension for Ext.Air

Sounds all very good, but to be honest, I expected the Ext.air.Notify class to do exactly what you listed up. I will just download your code, give it a try and participate in further enhancement if possible and necessary.

Best regards
