I see that I have messages waiting in my mailbox for ProBundle but I'm unable to deal with them as I am currently at the hospital. So please wait for a few days before expecting an answer.

Hope you get well soon!

I just downloaded the update (I'm slow lol) and I noticed that coverflow has gone, 4 of my apps made heavy use of it (and cos it was a paid library, not many apps had it so it made mine stand out) I remember you saying you where making it free, but I can't see it.

So when your better any chance I could have the older version of probundle as I have formatted and hope to update my apps but no rush. Just concentrate on getting well again!

Thanks for all your work!

Hello Frédéric,

I am glad that you are back from the hospital.

There's a problem with Android 8 when using your great Overlay Window library. Unfortunately, I can not solve it myself. My knowledge is too low for that.

In the appendix I have changed your example a bit. I followed the instructions of Erel:

https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/draw-on-top-of-other-apps-permission.90513/#content

The app works with the entry android: targetSdkVersion = "23" in the manifest. The window is below the status bar. With the entry android: targetSdkVersion = "26" crashes the app because of missing permissions completely.

One solution was given by Star-Dust here:

https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/chathead-wrapper-gif-overlay.62027/page-3#post-571305

Since it was written in Java, I could not use it. By November 2018, this problem must be solved. I hope the solution is not too complicated. Can you help ? Thank you.


Best regards,
Gunnar

I am glad to hear that. The helpfulness in the B4A community is really great. Without this help my project TempoMaster would probably not have been practicably.

Best regards,

New version available:
I added an OverlayPermission class to the OverlayWindow library to handle the permission to draw overlays over applications under Android 6+ (targetSdk 23+). I added also a fix for Android 8+ and updated the examples.

As announced a few weeks ago in the Questions section of the forum, I have decided that I will not update the ProBundle PDF guides because most donors are not interested in the security aspect of ProBundle and the number of donors is too low to motivate me. That being said, the advices given are still relevant and will remain so for some time.

I am using the the ProBundle security features in addition to several of the other ProBundle libraries in all of my applications and in particular "Secure Vault". I have no problem with the security PDF not being updated as long as there aren't any changes to the procedure in creating ad-hoc security vault libraries. I can't say this enough "great libraries' and thank you for creating them!

Hello @Informatix ,

Is this donation/lib still valid (working on newer versions of B4A and Android) ? Is it possible to call a floating window from a service (to do a notification, for example)

If yes, I'm donating now! Thanks!
