I am thinking of using Flex4/Air for developing an Android app. I want the app to have hover to play like ability. I mean if a video thumbnail is selected from alist of videos but not clicked it should play a 5 second clip just like in bing.com/videos. I am assuming this is the closest we come to “hover” in Android devices – please correct me if ths is not the case.

Does Flex4/Air have this capability? Otherwise can we implement hover-to-play ability on Android devices?

Appreciate any help/pointers.

    Does Flash Builder 4.5 have this capability? No! I think you meant to ask does Flex 4.5 have this capability, but the question would be best stated: “does AIR for Android have this capability? If so, how can I access it in Flex?”

    When developing code for mobile devices, I would take great care when implementing functionality based on a “hover” approach. However, you can take a look at these touch events:

    1. TOUCH_OVER
    2. TOUCH_ROLL_OVER

    I thought a Long Press / Long Touch event may be what you need, but I couldn’t find any documented one supported by AIR’s touch API.
