flutter scrollIntoView - scroll

This method appears to be for testing, but I actually need to scroll a widget onto the screen after rebuilding the UI with more widgets.
This exists in the GWT world.
Is there any way to achieve this in Flutter ?

You can use scroll_to_index plugin as a workaround. Keep tab on the Widget's index that you'd like to navigate to utilize this package.

Xamarin Forms - Disable loading spinner on ListView

I have a Xamarin forms app where I'm using ListViews to display some data, with pull to refresh enabled. When the ListView is pulled and starts the refresh it has its own spinner animation. However, this doesn't display when the page first loads, and so I've wired in a separate ActivityIndicator to indicate loading for just the first time. It's styled different though. I would prefer to use the ActivityIndicator, since it's what's used through the rest of the app, but I haven't found a way to disable the spinner animation on the ListView yet. Is it possible to disable it? Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks!
There are a few ways I can think of to solve this.
Don't use Pull-to-refresh. Xamarin.Forms has this built in and you can't customize it without using renderers and altering controls. Instead, start your refresh another way (ToolbarItem, etc) and continue using your custom ActivityIndicator.
Customize the existing ListViews UIRefreshControl. You may be able to use a renderer or "Effect" to customize the RefreshControl being used by the native control. This would allow you to style it a little close to what your custom indicator looks like.
Change the color of the spinner. This is my least favorite option. You could workaround this by changing the color of the spinner to match the background so you don't see it.

Is there TOP VIEW(or window) on xamarin forms?

I'm making app with using Xamarin.forms.
I wanted to know if there is top window or view for Xamarin.forms.
I want to put something like a alert or indicator so that it remain on top depth all the time until it's gone. (even if new page is pushed.)
I can't find any view or window on XF.
Should I use each native window?
Thanks.
You can try to use Application.Current.MainPage.DisplayAlert method to display alert from the MainPage (which ordinary always exists in app).

Custom Navigation with Xamarin.Forms

I’m working on an application for Android and iOS, which requires a certain flexibility for one or two views. That’s why we created & implemented a service that translated a basic list of objects into a user interface for both iOS & Android. But now that Xamarin.Forms is released, we decided to replace our service by the one Xamarin provides. I did succeed in creating the views with Xamarin.Forms, resulting in better looking & smoother running pages. But my problem lies in the navigation of it. Here is a little drawing on what I would like to achieve:
I would like my app to start an activity that starts with a custom fragment. After clicking a button on this fragment, I would like the page I created with the Xamarin.Forms api to be added to my current navigation stack! Once the user is finished with the Xamarin.Forms page, it navigates to a second custom fragment, all that without breaking the navigation cycle. Does anybody have an idea on how I can achieve this?
For the iOS developpers: replace Activity with NavigationController & Fragment with ViewController
Take a look at CarouselPage for Xamarin.Forms' own approach. It doesn't look like that's what you need but you can also look at its source code and maybe make a custom renderer yourself.
You may also want to take a look at MVVM
As for the easier/hackier way you'd want to make a button on each page and when the button is tapped execute Navigation.PushModalAsync(nextPage) - there won't be a "< Back" button any more, you may need to implement that yourself if you need it.
If by your meaning of 'current navigation stack' is for using the native Navigation of each platform, then remember that you don't have to use Xamarin.Forms' Navigation Model and functions such like PushAsync.
If you prefer to do Navigation with code specific to each platform then you can do this the same as normal. Just create your stub pages in each platform specific project and set the Xamarin.Forms content for each page from the shared project.
From each platform specific stub page (Activity / UIView / PhoneApplicationPage) you could then execute an Action<> call setting on the shared Xamarin.Forms page to help with the navigation, or alternatively, hook into a custom-event that is raised from the Xamarin.Forms** page back to the platform specific stub page to allow you to do navigation from there.
Like Sten mentioned there won't be any 'Back' button so you will most likely have to do that yourself.

Basic layout of appcelerator app

I creating my first appcelerator app and looking for some info on whether something is possible, and if so is it easy to implement.
I'm using Titanium SDK 2.0.1.
I'm trying to create a layout similar to the Stream window in the Google+ app for Android:
1: A large header (Can the navbar property of Ti.UI.createWindow be adjusted?)
2: Two tabs under the header (Would like to be able to adjust height of them if possible? Are there alternatives to Ti.UI.createTabGroup if this is not possible?)
The main content I can figure out easily enough I reckon.
Any examples or links on how to achieve this layout would be great.
Thanks
There is no way to do that type of NavBar in Android using the native Ti.UI.Window properties, but you can just create your own NavBar using a view and stick to the top of the window. For the tabs, I'd look at http://www.tomaspersson.com/2012/03/20/titanium-viewpager-module-now-available/ - I'm not sure it will have all the options you need, but it is a good starting point. Good luck!

How to achieve the screen using Graphical Editing Framework in eclipse

I want to achieve the GUI represents in the link provided http://www.eclipse.org/gef/.
I want that kind of view as drag and drop.
Is there any resource available to get that kind of screen. I tried the snippets available for Zest already. But my objective is to get the drag and drop of buttons to the editor window as a GUI Builder.
Check UML project for Eclipse, probably you need something like that...
