I'd like to add an achored button to appear at the top of the page on the right on select pages. Can I do this with Adobe Air?

Hi Peter,

Where do you suggest I post? I don't think I'm in the wrong place (AdobeAir Help is where I want to be.)11-12-2013 6-09-17 AM.png

Perhaps I misunderstood. What is the button to do?

I want the button/object anchored on the top right so when the user scrolls down, the button stays at the top of the text as the user scrolls down - the button/object can be clicked whether at the top, middle or bottom of the page.

Yes I understand what an anchored button is. I believe they will require either a div tag or some javascript and for that reason I suspect you will not be able to achieve that in AIR Help. Not saying you cannot, simply setting an expectation. You would need to Google possible methods and then try.

The reason I asked what the button would do is to see if that was likely to require javascript as well. You have only said where the button will appear, not what it will do when clicked. If it is a Back to Top, then if you can find a way of anchoring the button, then applying a link where the URL is a hashtag would give you back to top.

Overall though, I think the biggest challenge is getting javascript to work in AIR Help.

Thanks for the input, Peter. I'll look for a fix/workaround for this online. It's such a cool feature, hopefully I can find out how to do this.
