Starling.display.Image mask is not rendering on mobile on Air 24

[marcanw]

Hi Air team. Thx for your wonderful work 🙂

Any idea about the schedule on the "Starling.display.Image mask is not rendering on mobile".

I'm stuck because to the air sdk 23 because of this. And the 23- has problems with the permissions so I'm in a difficult situation.

In the meantime if there is a workaround I'm interested.

Thx for your reply.

The bug (4196946) is resolved with Air 24.0.0.177 on android but still persist on ios...

[marcanw]

I tried the Starling.display.Image mask on iOS with the latest release 24.0.180 and it still doesn't work.

Is Adobe Air team aware of this?

Because I see it as solved in the release note but it isn't on iOS (android seems fine tho).

Hi Marcanw,

I tried reproducing the bug taking a sample project packaged with AIR_24.0.180.

I am running the project on iPhone 6 plus (iOS 9.3), but unable to reproduce the problem at my end. It works fine both on iOS and Android using the latest AIR 24 build.

Could you please share the detail of devices on which you're running the project. And it will also be very helpful for us if you can share a sample project with us.

Thanks,

Adobe AIR Team

Hi deesharm,

Thank you for your reply.

I tried on an iPhone 5s with iOS10 and on an iPhone 4s with iOS7. Both have the same issue.

So it doesn't seem to be related to the device or iOS version.

Here is the project published with Air 23.0.274

And the same project published with Air 24.0.180.

It's difficult for me to make a sample code because I didn't make the starling/feathers part of the project. However I can send you the full project if it can help.

Let me know.

Thank you

Hi I'm a bit worried because I don't see any improvment concerning starling mask on iOS. I use starling 1.7.

I can't even find the bug 4196946 in the bugbase.

Any news on this?

Thank you.

Hi,

Could you please download the latest Adobe AIR SDK from Download Adobe AIR 25 Beta - Adobe Labs  and give it a try. Kindly let us know in case of any queries.

Thanks,

Hi, thanks for your response. I have used 25 version, but the mask still does not render properly.

[Colin Holgate]

Can you remember when it was that you tried AIR 25? There was an update to that on Feb 22nd, if your test was earlier maybe the current one has it fixed.

Thanks for your attention to this problem. Today i have re-downloaded SDK and tried again, still no luck. It is really weird, because the same as3 code works fine with android or in windows' android emulator

Hi,

Could you please let us know which iOS devices you are using? Actually in case of lowEnd devices the stageHeight comes out to be different then the high end devices. Could you please try modifying your app for low end devices and let us know if it helps you.

Thanks,

Ankit

Hello, I use iPhone 4s (IOS 9.3.5), iPad 3 (IOS 7.1.2), iPhone 6 (10.2.1). They behave equally. Air 23 and earlier don't have this rendrering issue. Any workarounds not found

I had also this problem on iphone 5s, iphone 4s and ipad 2.

However I made a workaround by modifying the feather imageloader with flash code doing the masking and then transforming it into texture.

Same here, whne i apply round mask look very scropping

Masks not working with antiAliasing property setted to 1-16 value, I found it here: Stencil Masks not working with AIR 24.0 · Issue #939 · Gamua/Starling-Framework · GitHub

[Guest]

So, I had commented this line in my code:

// Starling.antiAliasing = 1;

After that it works fine
