Hi,

I'm wondering if someone can chime in here and verify this for me. It appears that it is not possible to view pdfs on Android using the StageWebView class, correct?

thx

Hi,

I'm not certain if this is the same issue, but have you checked you've set to enable hardware acceleration in your app descriptor XML?

Thank you for your response. I already activate the hardware acceleration, and updated the android SDK, without success on a tablet with Android 4+...

In one of your link, I have saw that set Dolphin browser as default browser could make it work. I will try it next week (I don't have the tablet today).

As the only feature of my app is to display PDF, maybe the better solution is to develop in native.

Thx a lot again !
