Toodledo AIR app

For anyone interested, here is a simple AIR app (just an HTML wrapper) that runs the slim version of Toodledo in a window size of 240x510. I prefer this method as I do not need Firefox running all of the time. Although memory usage is not an issue on my laptop, this simple wrapper uses less than half of what Firefox does.

This obviously requires Adobe AIR which you can grab from here.

The simple code in Flex Builder is as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:WindowedApplication xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute">
<mx:Canvas width="100%" height="100%">
<mx:HTML location="http://www.toodledo.com/slim/index.php"/>
</mx:Canvas>
</mx:WindowedApplication>

The app displays the window off of my monitor out of view. Is there a way to change it so it is visible?

This happened to me too. Right-click on the task name on the taskbar, select Move, and then you can use the arrow keys (or I think even the mouse) to move it on-screen.

In other news: the app itself didn't work well for me at all. Almost anything I did rendered the window blank. I only toyed around for a few minutes before giving up. (I'm on Windows XP, and another AIR app I use frequently --twhirl-- works just fine.) Sorry I can't be much more help.

Thanks Qrystal,


And thanks from me also...I had the same issue too!
But I've found I get the same problem each time I open the file

Also - anyone know how to make the window wider? I can make it bigger with my mouse but the data doesn't expand to fill it...it's just a bit narrow and the text is small for the resolution of my laptop

Otherwise this is great.

My apologies. When I initially created it, I set it up for my monitor which is quite large. I have modified the AIR file so it should open on any monitor and you are also able to resize screen size by mousing over the side or bottom of the window.

@Qrystal - not sure about the blank screen issue. Do you have a default view setup in your Toodledo settings? I use it everyday and it has worked fine for me.

Thanks...it now stays where I want it too...but when I resize the window the contents still stay the same size? If I use the slim version of toodledo this usually changes according to the width of the window. Hope you can fix this...coz then it'll be just what I wanted!

Great app. Thanks for the hard work.

I do have two small issues.

#1) If I'm looking at a folder with 30 items in it, I get a scroll bar on the right hand side that never goes away, even if the next thing I look at only has 2 items. It appears the scroll bar never resizes and maybe that's what it is suppose to do.

#2) If you have a large folder. For example, one of my folders has 140 items. When you select that folder you get another scroll bar inside the first. This only appears to happen on LARGE list.

Any suggestions?
