I am working on an app embedding wkwebview in it. I need to implement share option similar to safari browser. I have tried using the share plugin from https://github.com/jguertl/SharePlugin, share plugin from Xamarin essential. But none of them gives all the options I can see in the safari browser. I am attaching 3 screenshots, two from safari, 1 from the plugin i tried using.

The third one is from the sample i have made.
You can clearly see, my app gives less options to share item.
Thanks

I have a legacy safari extension which I need to convert into Safari App Extension to submit into Extension Gallery. I am new to Xcode therefore, not familiar with it's build and run process. I tried looking into official documentation from developer.apple.com but it is so abstract.
Why do we need to create a parent app in Xcode before creating a
safari extension target?
If so what parent app template should I
choose? Cocoa App?
Where I can find starter tutorials on Xcode?
What is the submission process to Extension Gallery?
How can add the extension under development to my safari through xcode for testing?
I heard they need the URL for extension to approval, when we are submitting extension through developer account why to host it on URL?
Any documentation or answers to the above questions would be very helpful. Thank you.
On 2. and 3, I had the same struggles - I wrote up a tutorial on basic style sheet injection in Safari App Extensions here: https://ulyngs.github.io/blog/posts/2018-11-02-how-to-build-safari-app-extensions/
I'm converting the legacy safari extension to safari app extension too and have some answers for your questions:
Because app extension is more as functional extension then safari browser extension and could bring more features to you. And as per Apple says: safari app extension gives more communication and data exchange between Safari and your native app, docs.
But I have no more ideas if you only want an extension for safari why this is only way to do extensions.
Yes, you should use the Cocoa App template. If you don't need the window for your app, you can remove it simply in Main.storyboard or make app as a "service".
A lot of docs from Apple I've read but understood a bit then expected. So I found some youtube channels (they are 2 or more years old but some things seems don't changed) Some vieos here and the Osx Dev Daily playlist on this channel. And of course official swift docs if you select swift for your app as PL.
I haven't read about this, but think it must be submitted with your Cocoa App.
First of all you should to run your app target and only after this you should run your extension target and choose "Safari" in showed window to run in. If you have no the signing at the moment so ensure to enable "Allow unsigned extensions" in Development > Allow unsigned extensions in Safari app.
Don't meet this info, could you share it, pls? (sry, don't have enough knowledges)
Hope, it helps to you!
P.S. also recomend to see the converting docs, but it may be insufficient for converting :)
EDIT: it's seems to be incorrect to remove app window or change the default menus created by Cocoa App template for app submit for App Store. Some people got negative decision of app submit because of menus changes of redundant items or app have poor functionality or has not it at all. So consider to read the submit docs.
Please, share your experience when you'll have success app submit!
EDIT 2: Today I found template in Xcode 10.1 that can be used for Safari Extensions directly. It is as previous workflow (template Cocoa App + add extension target) but there is safari extension target already included
The app window and menu is simplified for developers:
So you don't need work with your app and you can concentrate on extension only.
When a Windows 10 computer wants to share some of its screens using webrtc protocol (firefox navigator), a list of the windows that can be shared appears. In this list, only "normal" applications appears, not the one related to "apps". By example, spotify window appears, but OneNote window is not listed.
It seems (?) webrtc screen share is not compatible with UWP apps.
Knows someone a way to share the screen of an app via webrtc ?
Note: following link allows to reproduce this issue:
https://mozilla.github.io/webrtc-landing/gum_test.html
you do not need share anything, just push "window" and see the list of windows that appears.
I believe Chromium (the open source version - not sure about Chrome) faces the same problem as UWP requires to use a new Win 10 API which shows it's own window selector. And then obviously that selector doesn't work on other problems. So it's a common problem on Win 10, with no known good solution as far as I can tell.
I converted my website to an APK and it installs fine - the problem is that when trying to scroll up or down - the page sticks and the page refreshes to a page not available - the live site works perfect.
Try to use momentum scrolling. I don't know exactly what can cause your issue, but
Android 3+ and iOS 5+ implemented a new property called overflow-scrolling that enables momentum scrolling. And it works beautifully.

Hope that helps.
I was using a service from GoNative that packages mobile web sites into APKS - kind of a wrapper to allow mobile sites to function like apps. One of the configuration options was to use "web pool" services that cached pages to allow for faster processing - I deleted that feature and the site/app works fine.
I am developing a Firefox addon for making fullpage screenshots of web pages. I know that several good addons that do this are already available, but we have some specific needs so I thought I would try to make my own.
I read that I can do screenshot --fullpage in the Firefox Developer Toolbar. This seems to works well. Can I also call this command from within my addon? If so, how would I go about that?
I am an author of short stories. I like using google docs and I like the idea of when I update a story these changes propagate to the sites I publish on. This system works fine in the latter versions of chrome and IE. http://plumplucker.com/
This doesn't work in IOS and only when using Opera on android - At present I need to create PDFs to work on an iPhone or an iPad which defeats my purpose of instant updating.
But right now I am trying to get Firefox to display the contents of the embeded iFrames, but FF 9.01 only shows the outline of the iframe containing a blank page. This is btw how ios displays the same page.
Here is my test page http://plumplucker.com/test3.html
In FF this page will load an iframe of my site, but it will not display the stories. I also tried having docs on google apps in case that would act differently - but no difference.
I have tried
Any one have a clue?
Just wanted to say that I have given up on inserting google doc iframes into my webpages hoping that they will render correctly on all platforms and browsers. That proved to be wishful thinking.
Instead I have constructed an app that builds static pages from the Google doc url's. First I let this happen on the fly every time a user selected a story for viewing, but there was quite a lag with this method and with afterthought I saw no reason not to create static pages. This I do for all my texts even if I have only changed a few details in one of them. I publish PDSs at the same time with TCPDF.
