Page scroll in WM6 programs (skyscape) - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development

Could please someone tell me how to make the up/down page button in WM6 to scroll a page up/down when pressed? Now I've managed to make it run from links to pages up/down when pressed, but every time after I use the page up/down button, I have to tap the screen to allow another up/down page button to work. And this is very annoying when I use the skyscape medical programs. Is there a way to make the up/down buttons move a whole page up/down when pressed, in any application / program?
Sorry for my bad english.
Thanks for support.

Scrooling problem in WM6
Could someone download and install any trail program from www.skyscape.com and then try to scrool up/down pages in it to see what's my problem? Maybe some of you would find a solution to that . Thanks.

Hi, can you put a direct link for download (to not have to create an account with skyscape)

WM6 scroll problem in skyscape progams
Yes, you're right...so here is the link to get a tryout of my problem with skyscape in WM5 and WM6 also:
http://rapidshare.com/files/136148894/abclabdata_ce.exe.html
The scroll problem was one cause for me to switch back to WM2003SE. If someone could help me by finding a solution for this problem I'd be glad to resume using WM6 . Thanks.

Have you tried contacting Skyscape support?

and up till now i did not found any solution if anyone find one please
tell us

well if it is present on all devices the best way is like kheechun said, sontact skyscape support and inform them for the bug in their software

Button mapping

I really miss my old s100 button mapping. Like in phone mode the right button brought up the call history. (most missed) Any way to get this function to work on the wizard ?????
Best regards Lars
gaustabl - can you try this app out for me.
Install it, go to your programs menu > vijay555 > vjcallhistory and give it a pop.
Please report ASAP if it needs work! Either here or on my website!
http://www.vijay555.com/index.php?Releases:VJCallHistory
WM5 devices only! Only tested on the Universal and emulator though.
If it works, make a donation or click on an ad on my webpage eh?
V
It works, but i still would like to map it to one of the left/right buttons.
Thanks for your reply
Best regards Lars
try following this post, it can be done
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33212
If you specifically want it mapped to dpad left/right, I think ButtonMax is the only software around right now that lets you map on a per app basis and using the dpad.
Mapping to the soft menu is easy enough.
V
Have tried some programs now, Mortbuttons and buttonmax. Have a problem with getting rid of mortbuttons. It uninnstalls, but next time I start my phone i get a message that it cannot start mortbuttons, and hangs for a while.
Buttonmax seems to do what i want, but i cant find how to start the call history. I cant get it to record a macro either......
Best regards

sms from keyboard

Hi , I would like to know if anybody figured out when sending an email or SMS how to go from "To:" to the actual message you will type without touching the screen ?
The Tab key didn't work for me .
Doesn't the down arrow do it? Works for me.
V
Both Tab and the Down arrow work for me. Just tried.
Press Message button to go to Pocket Outlook.
Tap LHS soft key to select New
Type first few letters of contact's name.
When number is suggested, press down arrow to select number.
Press Enter to fill in the number.
Press Tab to move to message area.
Type message
nope it doesn't on my xda exec, if I press the down arrow, the scroll bar will go down but the cursor is still on the "to:"
I dont' have a scrollbar anywhere on the New Message screen. I'm running in VGA landscape mode though. Maybe that's the difference.
Doesn't Tab work?
nope the tab + down key didn't work, it will go down on the scroll bar but the cursor will still be on on the "to:"
You said you were on VGA landscape mode, is it with ozvga ? or did you have asetting on the phone itself ?

Yeah - it's OzVGA.
Man, it would be really annoying if I had to use the stylus to create SMS. This is the biggest benefit for me: Doing (almost) everything in the system using only the keyboard. I hope you find a solution soon.
yeah, I just have to use my dirty fingers to put the cursor in the right place :?
One quick question, I have some app like wisbar/ netfront 3.3 in VGA already, if I install ozvga will it miss it up or they will still look the same ?
Or maybe there is only one way to find out.... :wink:
If you're using WA2 with OzVGA, you'll have to switch to a QVGA version of your Wisbar theme, otherwise it'll all go very weird. Not too much of a problem though, it just takes up a bit more space in your Themes folder having two versions of the same theme, and you need to switch them manually in WA2 when you switch resolutions.
This is because the system uses 96dpi (QVGA) icons, toolbars, fonts, etc, etc when running OzVGA.
thanks, I'll have a go.
still playing with it, just wait on an update so the phone can have a decent response time, miss my xdaIIs for that but, it is another subject 8)
Still love it BTW!
jeux_1, i have the same exact issue. It was driving my pretty crazy, but it helps to know someone else has this issue. Have you found a fix?
For the last three weeks, I was using the keyboard to write SMS, and my TAB key was moving the cursor from 'To' to the body of the message...
And now, suddenly, it does only a scroll down, like the down arrow, but stay in the 'To' field... :?
Any idea :?: it's really annoying....
Does anybody have an idea about that :?:
I think it is a bug for the O2 EXEC, my friend have an Orange one and work works fine.
I don't think there is a solution and it is a bug on the O2 one. Any of you guys can confirm ?
There is as well a new guy with a new Rom I will ask him if he has the same issue.
Actually, I use a Qtek 9000, different ROM
And it was working for at least three weeks... and now, it does'nt work anymore... smth changed, but I cannot find out what
here goes my theory..... :?
Ok, I found the solution.... my TAB key works again..
The problem came from Tweaks2k2 .NET, version 3.15... as soon as I apply changes with it, the TAB behavior changes... :evil:

How to make buttons in place of menus

Hi,
how to add a button like the 'Up' button in explorer? I think that they are called soft-key buttons. so how to add them? and are they supported in WM2003?
I also see Resco explorer implements them.
Thanks,
Mohammad
Ok, maybe I havent clarified things so I post a picture of what I want. hope you will help me
You can't.
The soft keys are a feature of WM5. They are actually regular menus. If you create an app with just two menus it will display like that on WM5 device and in the normal fashion on WM2003.
The only thing you can try is covering the menu bar and simulating the soft keys and the SIP button. Read about SHFullScreen on MSDN.

This is not quite true, you can have the same behaviour in WM2003SE, the only difference is that you have to do everything by your own.
In both OS, the so called menubar is in fact a toolbar. So in WM2003SE, if you want to have the same effects as in WM2005, you have to subclass the toolbar and use custom drawing. You also need to handle the SIP window, if you want to place it in the center. Of course, this is not straight forward...
Cheers,
.Fred
ok. now I know its possible. but can anybody provide some relevant links?? Thanks

Sorry I don't think you will find a lot on this matter on the net, I already made a dig, but not much found.
Anyway,
1) try http://www.pocketpcdn.com, especially the forums and look for toolbar, commandbar and shmenubar
this article will give you some hints: http://www.pocketpcdn.com/articles/right_toolbar.html
2) read msdn about toolbar subclassing and NM_CUSTOMDRAW handling
3) read msdn about shmenubar api
3) use Spy++ or related application to hook the menubar in wince and see what you get
4) make some tests and you will have something like that (full image in zip):
Cheers,
.Fred
Hi,
I have searched too much but found almost nothing about this issue. Please anybody has any article, link or sample project?? I need it very much.
Mohammad
mohgdeisat: what do you really need to know?
Start by making a project, and cosmetically program a custom menu bar/button bar to emulate the WM5 menu bar. It's not impossible, it's actually quite easy, but it is tedious.
Once you can do that, come back and show us.
Next step will be to patch it into your target app.
Realistically this is quite a tough task, at least if you want to generically patch soft keys into the whole OS, because softkeys (and menu bars) and prepared on a per app basis - the menu bar on the Today screen in Wm2003 is different to WM5 for example. You would have to parse in the WM2003 menu into your emulated WM5 softkeys, per app, and even then it would still not match WM5, because the WM5 menus have been reordered from wm2003 apps to match the Microsoft design guidelines for softkeys.
But start by emulating the softkeys in a standalone app, before thinking about the next task.
V
Yes VJ, I really need to make my first step to learn this stuff, and I will do it soon with god's willing.
I have First exams this week so I might start it next week and I will post what I get here to have your feedback.
Thanks all and good luck

Touchflo and the right key

Hey guys,
I installed Touchflo on my Xperia. Works very well! But i have a problem.
The right key keeps remapping it's self back to "Today" after i start Touchflo.
I want this button to turn the display arround, but everytime i set it up, it remapps itself again after starting Touchflo.
I there a solution for this problem?
settings -> button -> map as whatever you want
what do you mean with "turn the display arround"? landscape?
In short, no solution if you have TF3D installed.
Install AWBPlus.
@guap
yes, i mean landscape.
@paroxsym
are your sure? is this a known problem?
You could start TouchFlo via MortScript.
Last lines should be
Sleep(10000)
RegWriteDWord("HKLM","Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys\40C3","Flags",14)
and the Button gets remapped. I've got this in my Autostart folder.
Sounds complicated ^^
I hope this problem will be fixed in the coming Manila 2 landscape.
you gotta search for hd-tweak...it´s somwhere in the blackstone forum...i got it on my xperia, and it just works find.
softreset included
there´s the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=452505
In the Deveopment/Hacking forum, you can find a fix from me which works without further tweaking tools
I hope the simple trick will be used by the rom cooks in further ROMs, at least Hammamed told me he will use it

Toggle (Alt+Tab) Function

Hi to all,
I have a question....
On Blackstone we have two custom buttons the home button and the back arrow button
now pressing the home button is like go to desktop in normal windows terminology.
But are we able to change the back arrow button to toggle (alt+tab) between applications.
i mean it partially does that when appication are on the screen but it doenst do anything when applications are running in background..like for e.g. say...i have explorer and wmplayer open then i press the home button..they ll be minimized in the taskmgr but back arrow is not usable in this case.
I think that ll make life very eazy for ppl who have bunch of applications running and needs to switch between them...as the taskmgr on the main screen is usually slow responding and again it saves clicks...if u know wat i mean..
thanx to everyone in advance..
Check MobileMagic, you can do that with this tool as far as I remember.

Check out WkTask - it display all running apps on the top bar the way Windows does on the taskbar on the PC! Just tap one of the icons and you switch to that app!
Hi guys ..thanks for the replies...tried both of the softwares ...MobileMagic..is not able to offer taskswitch function...and wktask is gr8 but messes up my keyboard font...its strange..any workaround ? i am using htc full qwerty keyboard.
Just download Spb PocketPlus, install it, go to the installation folder, find the file called AltTab.exe, save it.
You can uninstall P+ then and assign the "Back" button to launch AltTab.exe. But you will need AEButton+
This is how I live with my Touch HD

I guess I remembered it incorrectly, Alt+Tab action does not exist in MobileMagic, it is available in AE Button Plus.
Also there is no need for the AltTab.exe of SPB Pocket Plus, AE Button Plus is enough to accomplish this.
However, AltTab.exe might provide a better user experience, I will try it anyway.
Try TaskFacade!

That's odd... What exactly is getting messed-up? Could you upload a screenshot?
I've never had any problems using WkTask - and I have used it on pretty much every ROM I had on my HD!
BTW: I use the same keyboard you are using... no problems!
I've tried TaskFacade but it crashes on me ALOT and I can't seem to map it very well with AEButton.I wanted to map it to long 'Back' but it never works.
I don't have a HD (yet), so I don't know if this will work for sure...
But I use a little free app called HButton on my XDA Orbit (Artemis?), which allows as many functions as you like on one button (by holding the button down until the required function/app appears).
This also includes a task switcher function.
Worth a try.
Hi Guys thanx for the replies again...
by messed up i mean the text on the htc sip keyboard is like times new roman in normal (not bold tahoma) and it looks ugly...i have tried removing the application and it still is the same...can anyone upload the default font cab
thanx
