We can scroll through your photo list by sliding your finger along the picture by full screen. If anyone can make it. It's so great.
I see "icontact" & iMedia Player" is the great job of PPC. We have enough experience to do it. I think the "iPhoto" is not the problem.
Hope it will some soon.

It may so hard for PPC because PPC can't make 2 fingers actions at the same time
get Picsel browser and select your jpg's to open with this program, its pretty close to the iphone interface.

no need for 2 finger actions. you'll do them separate... bottom up change pic, sideways zoom in...
it's being used on the touch flow cube...
as for picsel browser.... looks very nice... ill try it and report!

Hey Guys, Byka is working on a PictureViewer.

I use this one on my touch

Not sure if it will works with other PPC's but I really like it.
I started writing something exactly like you're describing, but I haven't finished it. I've been busy trying to finish up this job and find a new job and haven't had as much free time for programming. I'll do a little more work on it when I get a chance and see what you guys think.
picsel is ultra slow at loading...
bika's still in dev... though it looks awesome!
pictureviewer 1.6 didn't work for me... I'm guessing there's a problem in the cfnet version?

I just tested in WM5. It works. But I don't like the design.
Byka's PictureViewer is good design. I have some idea.
1) In photo list mode, we can scroll (left or right) pictures in the list one by one.
2) Double click the photo to enlarge the photo to full screen.
3) In full screen mode, have a zoom & move function.
4) double click the screen to back to photo list mode.
Base on our current technology, it should not be hard to do. I am shameful that I don't know the programming so much.
SIMPLE IS THE BEST

Hey There.
I just found somthing like that in flash : http://flashden.net/item/3d-profile-viewer/14759
It is almost the same as DIMAOND CONTACTS. Maybe someone could integrate it with THROTTLE LAUNCHER ? Or is there anything similar out there already ?

rather the contact photos are lined up on the bottom and you just scroll across them, they dont flip down like they do on the diamond
hmmm, the flash contact list does scroll up and down, but only one at a time, not in a fingered increasing movement.
or are you refering to some other effect?
I never used a diamond so I really dont know the diference...

On Throttle 0.9.3 there are up to 4 methods of displaying contacts. YOu can change that by using the configdialog. The methods are:
- Plain: it's the default one and matches what you're describing
- 3D: Using direct3D to add the plain mode a simple animation. (not working on all devices...)
- Classic: scroll through the contacts and press to dial. Throttle classic mode .
- Flash: this is the one TWolf is talking about. It displays and act's almost exactly to how diamond does. Thought it doesn't have the left side scrolling row, but the contact photos are just exactly the same .

Yeah but the FLASH CONTACTS in TL is really bad. There is no way for quick change between contacts. You have to change them one by one which is really slow.
Well, you have the abc jump, that to me makes more sence in a contact list with 90 or more contacts...
:S
but you are right, its still slow, it was working fine but i had problems with the animation on 200mhz devices, it can be redone to work better and it can even have the drag cinetics now with the new plugin...

Wow if it had cinetics for fast changing between the contacts it would be awesome ! Anyway keep up the good work. I am keeping my fingers crossed for having new version of Flash Contacts.

Hi.
I'm probably just doing something dumb... but i can't configure the flash contacts. it displays the lsash version of the contacts but i can't find a way to add my own contacts to the list...
i.e. all i get is Neo, Twins, Oricle, etc...
can someone point me in the right direction.
Cheers!
Edit the varis.txt inside that folder with notepad.
Thanks twolf!
yup, you're right. didn't see the contact folder under the touchflo3d folder initially.
shame you can't just import from outlook contacts...

You will, when the plugin is finished...

Hi guys, hopefully this'll be a simple one. Like the TF3D calendar app, I'd like to see this one with a TF3D tab. It's just a notepad, really. I'm not bothered about loading/saving different note files, would just like a note to appear on the page, editable of course. It would be up to the user how to use it, but for me, it would just be for reminders, or to-dos.
I'd like to see what peoples' thoughts are on this one, and look forward to seeing what happens
Thanks!
I second that!! I think it would be great to just write something quick and sto store it in the TF Notepad tab. that should be great!
I'd be interested to see what ideas others have for this.
I was also thinking about text entry... maybe it wouldn't be done through TF3D, but more like how text messages are written - a button leading to the note editor, and all the TF3D app does is reference a note file for display or something.
Or more, like Notepad/Paint..
could be quite nice to have a paint-program in TF3D
Maybe something like this!?
Use the stylus to write something directly in a TF3D Tab!!
It's a fake!.. so no comments like 'Please, Please can u make it for me!?' or 'Where can I download it?!
Like that indeed
Put a TFLO3d border around it and a tflo3d scrollthingie and off you go.
Just slik.

Dilligaf is on the ball one time
I'd also like to see plain text entry, as my handwriting is appalling, doubly so on the Diamond
Well, text-based notepad is planned for my new iPhone-like UI (and then for standard manila). But no handwriting possible - manila don't have any drawing API.
this software allows you to write within any other program running, you do not have to be "in" TF3D.
the problem is, that when using stylus - insead of being able to write - you scroll.
http://www.inesoft.com/eng/index.php?in=calcnote.html
any ideas?
you should desactivate scrolling in touchflo maybe with some registry key like i do on my trinity with the adapted touchflo (touch scrolling features and cube in trinity). But scrolling will be desactivated for all others app...
perhaps on top of the notepad.. could includes note browser to choose archive notes or start new notes.. and better off have page navigation..

this was a feature available in TF in trinity etc. you cannot edit TF on diamond.
however- the builtin notepad works fine with scrolling - other software does not work as well: calcnote, and Phatpad - same issue.
ideas?
Like I said before, I think something that worked similar to how you write text messages, where it displays the messages in TF3D, but editing takes place in the standard text messaging app. So, for this idea, you'd see the notes in TF3D, but editing them would be done in the notes app or something. That's not inconsistent with the way other TF3D apps work, and it gets around the scrolling problem. You could probably flick through notes like you would a text message.

Not sure exaclty what your looking for but I use an app called "The Pad" from www.visualit.co.uk installed and remapped my right soft key to open the pad. Really useful for scribbling notes, telephone numbers etc on the fly.

Good work in the engine room of the Forum. What would be really good now would be the option to delete an e-mail in the Touch Flo view without opening - as one can with text messages. I would have absolutely no idea where to start...

I thought I had an idea on how to get this working and it didn't work. I need to spend a little more time on this. Now that I know that TF3D really is universal (I thought it was very different between VGA and WVGA) I'll post things here as well for testing. My wife won't let me test things on her Touch HD
i'm dying to get the HD2, but I've never yet had a phone that didn't have either a jog dial / rollerball / direction pad or some way of moving around the screen without just using touch...
you Blackstone owners are the guys in the know - i guess you've had the HD for a year or so - how do you find it? Do you wish you had a hardwarde key to scroll around the screen while browing etc? It always struck me that without a direction control a touch screen definitely became a two-handed device whereas with a jog-dial or similar one is enough for most things.
be great to hear some views - Thanks!
hey... I thought I will miss the direction pad when i first went for the HD, but I didnt... (maybe the first week only when I was allready used to use the D-pad on my Polaris)..
As far as the stylus is concerned, I hardly use it as well... I mean i use it only when i text somebody, simply because i want to text faster without pressing the wrong letters, but with a bigger display on the HD2 I can't see this being a problem... I don't text a lot so its not a problem for me... To be honest I used it a lot more on my Polaris on the smaller display...
Now you know is down to the individual and what you use on a daily basis... WM6.5 is created as such you will not need the stylus a lot... As for browsing I use it one handed, scrolling with my thumb.
take care

Think most people would agree with me and state they wished the HD had a d-pad, however with the latest roms available and some extra apps installed like AEBPlus (for directional up & down) you can manage without a d-pad or stylus for everyday use. Unfortunately when it comes to games you are very limited and without this excellent sites dev's most games would be useless for the HD. Thankfully if you search the apps, software & games forums you should be able to find a d-pad usable for games.
I was however a little disappointed that the HD2 doesn't have a d-pad (or drivers) as I thought HTC may have learnt, obviously not

That's true, but with the capacitive screen of the HD2, you can't use a stylus at all,so not needing it much is still a big problem. This is paticularly true if you use Office mobile a lot like I do or want to accurately cut and copy text.

Well - I don't agree at all! Screen size is everything - and if the HD2 had a DPAD, the screen would have to be smaller... I can't think of a single situation where I would need a DPAD! What do you need it for?
And concerning the OP: I use the device with one hand most of the time as well... When texting, I can use my thumb (or both thumbs if I want to type faster) without problems. The same applies to scrolling. The only problem I have is with older WM builds with the start menu icon in the top left corner - it's hard to stretch the thumb all the way across the screen - but with newer builds (6.5.1) the start menu has moved to the bottom. So that problem is going to be taken care of!

It is much easier to select text with your stylus in order to cut or copy text. It is more precise, as mentioned on an earlier post.

If you had read my post I was hinting at a d-pad for gaming.......everyday use I don't need it, but for gaming, thats a different matter for a lot of people.
An optical pad is not that big. No need to cut the screen size.
The difference is such like hard keyboard and touch keyboard.
quite some people cannot live without a hard keyboard.

Ah - ok! I thought there was some special way to copy and paste using the stylus. Yes: That's very true. Text selection is alot easier with the stylus. That would be an issue they'd have to address on the HD2. Isn't there some zoom & select feature on the iphone? That would make alot of sense to me...

Ok - some games do require a DPAD. But many new games will not, specifically because devices like the HD and the HD2 do not have one. Also, as I've said: screen size is everything to me. I don't really care for games (there are enough good games working without a DPAD) and prefer a bigger screen. And that was my point: Your post began with the sentence "Think most people would agree with me and state they wished the HD had a d-pad" and I just wanted to reply: I don't!
I only use the stylus when I play solitaire and surf the web; clicking links could be quite an annoyance without a stylus.

No probs, but I actually agree with you. I don't really use the stylus at all any more and I'm not into gaming that much either, but there has been a lot of development in the software forum for a d-pad for games not specifically designed for the HD so there is still a demand for a d-pad.

Regarding the zoom thing.. I saw a video the other day where igo8 was running on HD2, and the guy would pitch and zoom on the map, but it seemed as the whole program was zoomed in, not just the map. If this is true and it can be achieved in other programs then selecting text won't be (that much of) a problem...
IMHO, having no D-pad is a major pain, particularly with single handed contact's selection and controlling music FF,play,pause,skip without having to pull it out of your pocket, turn the screen on and do it there.....it really is such a backward's step for what I've just said, its not even debatable in my eye's
Have tried a couple of games with the onscreen controls briefly and thats as much as I ever want to try it....I thought it was useless.....missing D-pad's is one of the biggest backward's step's with most newer model's for me.
Stylus is my reason for using WM, if it didn't have it, I wouldn't use it, high res screen's with small text and icon's, precision, clean screen, faster typing [for me]...stylus is windows mobile imo, although the shell's and interface add on's have made them much more useful without a stylus...what's the point, might as well buy one of the other three major mobile OS's as you lose the benefit's of point precision combined with dense data and high resolution.
The stylus is less of a pain on the diamond and HD because pulling it out also turn's the device on, although I would prefer it top mounted than the bottom.
My 2 cent's anyway.
Regarding text selection on the HD2:
http://pocketnow.com/software-1/selecting-text-on-the-htc-hd2
in that video he says that new text selection functionality is only available in the HTC Sense part of the UI, and not in the basic Windows Mobile bits... which is a shame.
The main use of a direction pad / rollerball for me is selecting links while browsing, esp where there is a long vertical list of links to chose from - using my G1 if i don't use the rollerball I am always hitting the wrong one (and I don't want to zoom in just to select a link!).
Having switched to Android, the only reason I feel like giving WMob another go is the specs on this thing - primarily the RAM, which is just awesome. I guess that given that most of the new ultra-high-end android devices that I am chosing between are similar in not having any other form of input other than the screen (htc rachel, acer liquid etc) I guess it shouldn't alter my choice much.
I think the real deciding factor is that the HD2 is going to be the first one that is actually going to make it to the market and the fact that i am eligable for an upgrade is burning a hole in my pocket!
