Looking for an alternative for nativescript-imagepicker - nativescript

nativescript-imagepicker seems to be dependent on the telerik ui plugin.
This is a very big/heavy plugin - requiring quite a bit of resources.
It seems like image picker uses just the list-view - not sure why the built-in list-view wasn't used.
Is there an alternative to this image picker plug-in.
I'm using NS 3.3.
I know the newer version breaks up the dependency - but I'm using NS 3.3 for now and it uses nativescript-telerik-ui

I need ckeditor to work on a smart phone

I understand that CKEDITOR doesn't work on smart phones. Someone provided a workaround that required editing the ckeditor.js. The statement he said to look for isn't in my copy of ckeditor.js so I'm stuck.
Also, ckeditor.js cannot be easily edited as it is all strung together in one big line. Is there a way to 1) get a copy of ckeditor that can be edited and 2) what do I have to do so it can be used on smart phones
Thanks in advance,
Paul
CKEditor 4 is compatible with mobile environments - refer to the official compatibility documentation. If you are using some antique version like CKEditor 3 (that predates most mobile environments), upgrade to latest CKEditor 4.
ckeditor.js is minified for better performance on production environments, but you can grab the source version any time directly from the GitHub repository or through CKEditor Online Builder (check "Source (Big N’Slow)" at the bottom).

CKEditor dll for ASP.NET

I am looking for CKEditor for ASP.NET but unable to use it because the dll library files are not provided in the setups available. Please guide how to include the dll library and provide any link where i can get those libraries.
If you're using ASP.NET WebForms (not MVC) and you're willing to use an older version of CKEditor (3.x from 2014) then you can download CKEditor for ASP.NET from the main download page. Scroll down until you see the "CKEditor 3.6.6.2 for ASP.NET" heading and click "Download now".
You'll get a zip file with a sample project including the DLL in debug and release versions. I just downloaded it now and it contains the DLLs.
Complete setup instructions are available here.
However, if you're not using WebForms this will not be of any use to you. I would also strongly suggest using the latest version of CKEditor (4.5.9 at the time of writing) and just adding the CKEditor script to your pages along with a textbox to hold the editor content.

Label Image scale issue in Codename one library 3.3

We are using the following code to download image from our server and display it with a label:
ImageDownloadService.createImageToStorage(IconSrc, label, IconSrc,
new Dimension(width,height), ImageDownloadService.PRIORITY_NORMAL);
After upgrading to the latest library 3.3, theimages are no longer scaled properly. It either only shows one corner of the image or scales the image up to fill the entire space.
This issue does not occur once I fall back to the older library 3.2.
Looking at the code of ImageDownloadService I don't quite understand how this functionality worked in the past.
We don't really use that class internally and have recommended that developers migrate to the far superior URLImage class. I'll have a look at trying to fix that regression but I'd strongly suggest you migrate your code to the newer API.

Why does GWT 2.7 discontinue the GWT Designer?

As per GWT 2.7.0 (RC1) Release Note, GWT Designer is deprecated. I use the tool for some complex UI design in my project. Just don't know why this happens and what are alternatives without it.
The GWT Designer is no longer the focus of the GWT Steering Committee (Members include Google, Vaadin, Sencha etc )
As stated the code is open sourced and if anybody is interested they can take ownership of it to revive it. Going back in history Google bought the company that built the designer and utilised some parts of it initially and later on abandoned the designer with very little commits over last few years. So its been in coma for more than couple of years now with few changes added to support yearly eclipse releases.
Looking into the source -> https://github.com/gwt-plugins/gwt-designer
They are adding support for next version of eclipse too.
Of course Vaadin and Sencha have their own take on the Designer. Their focus might not be purely native GWT. Reference:
Vaadin -> https://vaadin.com/designer
Sencha ->

KineticJS-saveImagedata() , Problems updating to new kineticjs library

I used kinetic-v3.10.4.js for almost all my work.
Now the requirement changed and I need to add few more functionality that are available in newer versions.
So I started using kinetic-v4.0.1.js.
I made a sample file and it is working fine but few functions like saveImageData();,DetectionType.etc. are not working in 4.0.1 as they have been updated and instead of saveImageData(), createBufferImage() is the new function.
I am redoing everything with kinetic v4.0.1 now.
I can't find the old example in the website that was using createBufferImage() for image event detection as it has been updated to 4.3.3
So anyone having any old example that help in pixel detection/image detection with 4.0.1
