SkillSwap Aftermath!

Thanks to everyone who came along to the SkillSwap on Wednesday - I hope you enjoyed it and learned something!

The slides are online and available for download (11Mb PDF), and if you have any questions, please post them in the comments or drop me an email.

In response to the person who asked "Is there any screen capture functionality within AIR?, I'm afraid at the moment the answer is no - its not in the roadmap for the 1.0 release as far as I can tell. However, if you just want to capture the AIR application itself, then it should be possible to save just that window as bitmap data using AS3.0.

var capture:BitmapData = new BitmapData(UIComponent(mx.core.Application.application).width,UIComponent(mx.core.Application.application).height);var m:Matrix = new Matrix();capture.draw( UIComponent(mx.core.Application.application), m );

If you are looking for screen-sharing options, then I would heartily recommend Adobe Acrobat Connect which is just great for presentations and/or collaborative working.
