EDIT: release 0.5.1 solves some bugs reported in this forum and add's some functionality to the config app. Also included an about box due to some sites and forums (outside xda-developers) distributing the app without giving any credit. This app is for personal use only, if you want to distribute it on a ROM or in any other site ask for my permission through private message first please.
A little tutorial for personalization is posted here
New Features
==========
- DPAD, L-R buttons navigation. Probably a little buggy, prease report how it works on your device..
- Now config application is embedded and can preview setups... (use the wheels icon to access)
- Some Config Applcation bugs solved... EDIT: 0.5.1 Now supports clock, text and footer edition...
- Added new action for text #$update# so you can place constant text over o under other updating elements.
- Added selected icon over image (in skins uses the "selectionimage" param). By default shows a square arrond elements.
- A bunch op optimizations, clean up and "killed" bugs...
- Other more I don't remember.... :-D
Remember that skins.zip have 2 more example skins... just decompress the zip on your applications skins directory to use them.... Now you can preview them by using the configurator.
Any feedback will be wellcome...
----------------------------------------------
Update of the app.
New Features
==========
- Added analog clock (by using clock tag to rows. Example included in config.xml. Will post a little tutorial latter)
- Added text posibility (By using text tag in rows. Can paint date using C# patterns (Can be used to paint digital clock...) and registry values wich can be really powerfull by using sys2reg or similar script's or apps. Currently showing missed calls, sms and mail. Examples included in config.xml but will post a little tutorial latter).
- Black theme as default.
- Now fonttype is configurable by using "fonttype,fontsize,bold" on attributes.
- Loading text on loading rows.
- Many internal optimizations.
By the way remember that minimizing the app is as simple as moving the finger from top to bottom (no matter how fast you do it).
Hope you like it. Please post feedback.
---------------------
Another update of the app. This has little changes:
- Added Icon for the app
- Added shortcut to the Programs menu (Thanks to ather90)
- Stability improved.
- Solved some graphical bugs.
Hope you like it!!
------------------------
Here you have another release of the app. Probably the last alpha.... . Hope you like it.... Every feedback will be wellcome!!
I recomend performing a backup of config.xml before installing if you have performed some work on it.
New Features 0.3
=============
- Skin support (separated color info from config.xml). A zip with 2 more sample skins is attached , just decompress to the skins folder.
- Textures for the rows and background.
- Trasparent Labels.
- Contacts by category.
- Recursive directory listing.
- Some bugs solved.
- Lot's of time and memory optimization.
- First release of a config app (currently is very "dirty"...)
UPDATE: 04/01 - Cab File Updated with programs shurt cut. Thanks to ather90.
---------------------------------
Hi everyone!!!
Another release... I hope you like it!! I've also added more screenshot's ;-).
Any feedback will be wellcome. (At least tell me if it works please !!!)
New Features 0.2
================
- Minimize gesture (just move your finger from the top to the bottom of the screen!!)
- Minimize animation.
- Paging concept (with page tag inside config.xml. ). A page contains N rows. 3 Pages included: Home, contacts, programs.
- Footer concept (with footer tag inside config.xml). The footer is common for all the pages.
- Some more animations added....
- Removed the background for the icons (can be added again per element by the tag attribute
- Solver some bugs:
- Memory leak in loading contact images.... I think it may have been solved, but not sure.
- Number format exception with decimal comma.
- Now searching programs folder through registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Explorer\CrossPlatformNavigationURL. Should work on any languaje... I hope...
- By pressing any buttom the application (if it's activated and not crashed of course X-D) will generate a screenshot to the root. If you detect some graphical bug and you want to share it please send me that screenshot. This option can be removed by changing config.xml
------------------------------
New Update with one new feature:
- Added configuration options in config.xml with:
- kinetic scrolling parameters.
- Change between maximized and normal mode (for the title bar to appear or not).
- Turn on/off appearing animation from bottom.
Remmember that by editing config.xml you can add or remove rows, icons in the rows, change back colors, titles, etc....
I recomend if you are using FTouchFlo to add this app to the exclude list.
Please, any feedback, bugreport, improving request will be wellcome.
I'm working on a today plugin with horizontal kinetic scrolling too but can't promiss anything as cause I have to rewrite almost all the code in... c++
Surur, thank for all the advices
--------------
Hello everyone!!
Here I have another version of this app. I don't know hot to UPDATE a previous thread... so I'm openning another one.... This is the original thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=354424
New Fetures are:
- Kinetic scrolling.
- Recent apps list (with tag <lastapps/> in config.xml)
- Running apps (<runningapps> in config.xml, can have inner <exclude name="\Windows\shell32.exe"/> to avoid some programs of appearing on the list)
- Separator with optional tittle (with tag <separator name="Running"/>)
I hope you like it!!
By downloading or using this application you agree the following:
- Use this application at your own risk.
- This thread is the only place allowed to link to the file download.. If you like the app and you want more people to have it please place a link to this thread.
- This application is for personal use only.
By the way, I promiss I will try to develop a today plugin with horizontall scrolling too ;-).
Nice, but scrolling is not very kinetic at all on my Kaiser. I also have a bug where clicking on settings always takes me to the HTC Task manager settings. I like the vertical labels - nicely implemented.
I think minimizing the app needs to be a bit easier than finding the minimize icon.
Great work and improvement in a very short time.
Thx
Surur
I've made some modifications for u Surur ;-). You can now configure kinetic scrolling parameters or make the title bar appear with the smart minimize button...
There is no config dialog already so the configuration button is linked to the task manager on purpose.... Sorry ...
Remember that you can always minimize the app by pressing the end call button.... at least on my herald it works..
Thanks a lot for the feedback.

Sorry....
Sorry about the error.... it seems that is because the locale settings (mine are set to spanish....) .... try changing in the config.xml the values with decimal coma replacing the comma with a point....
If someone could try if that solves the problem I would be very gratefull ;-). Fore everyone else here you have an updated version without the "conflictive" configuration params (also updated in original thread).
Thanks everyone for trying and sorry for the inconvenience.

Awesome app.
It's a little crowded, though... How about a today plugin with only ONE of the bars?
Or just one that doesn't have so many things on it. Awesome app. VERY fluent. It's just a little crowded for every day usage.
mar_cin, thank you for the report... I seems that the leak is on the contact pictures loadding... can you answer me two questions please?
- How much contacts with photo do you have on your contact list?
- Do you use larger photos for contacts than the "standar" sized ones (I mean the ones that the camera do in contact photo mode ;-))
Thanks in advance for the info.
Jaxf250... thanks for the testing ;-) and sorry for the inconvenience..... It's ovbious that I have to add some more exception catching code X-D.
Thanks everyone for trying!

Hi all,
I am trying to program a small application for my HTC Touch Pro. I start a project it comes out with a low resolution of 240 x 268.
I change that resolution to 480 x 640 manually and select to compile the program on my device. What i get is, that i only see the controls that come in the original "240 x 268".
The weirder thing is, i added an image control for testing, and inserted an image with the size of 480 x 640. And above the image, i placed two buttons next to each other, just to see how things would look.
The result came VERY weird, the image came perfectly fit to the screen, but the two buttons appeared in w wrong way, one button was above the image, and then the other one was thrown outside the whole screen for which you have to scroll to!
Why is this happening? and when or how can i program applications for my mobile correctly?
PS:
If i select a button and make its dimensions 240, 42, on my mobile it would fill the whole width! The mob has a width of 480, so how come a 240px control is filling it up? Am confused :S
Hi everyone!
Just brought myself the HTC touch HD today! Great phone just one little annoyance! The LARGE text that the phone uses through out the phone.. Start menu/text messaging etc. Is there a way to make the system font smaller?
Sorry to have posted here But Im out of ideas looking on the phone!
Thanks
Easy fix.

Hi and thank you for the post.
I have the SMS text smaller now is there a way for the start menu text to be smaller?
Not to my knowledge, however, you can mess around with the Top Menu Bars, but as far as the drop down menu, doesn't really seem to resize.
hi, use a reg editor and make the following changes:
HKLM\SYSTEM\GWE\Menu\PopFnt
* CS - 0
* Ht - 800
* HtInPts - 1
* It - 0
* Nm - Tahoma
* Wt - 700
- Ht - Font height
- It - Italics (set 0 for default and 1 for italic)
- Nm -Name of font
- Wt - Boldness of font

Start/setting/system/Touchflo, and blank out "enable large start menu". On some ROM it does not work(ie big letter comes back after reset). Hope yours work.
HKLM\SYSTEM\GWE\Menu\PopFnt
??? Cannot find this path...
The standard font for dropdown menu's is huge indeed!
Don't like it at all...

Sorry to hear about your HD2, have PMed you
file uploaded
if anybody need file can be download from
world-call-trade.com/keyboard
1 download to your home folder of where you want.
2 extrect with command tar -zxf TouchKeyBoard.tar.gz
it will create a folder name TouchKeyBoard, in the folder TouchKeyBoard should be 2 files TouchKeyBoard binary and TouchKeyBoard.png.
3 run from same folder ./TouchKeyBoard
it is written in c and gtk you should not have any problem running on gnome desktop if you have any trouble please let me know i will try to resolv.
there in no F key and some symbols are also missing i can make it on if we need.
my goal is creating a good keyboard as android keybord and after then a functional call and sms system over ubuntu desktop.
ps i am new here so cannot post externel links add http &www befor link
I am using ubuntu 10.10 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1025499 running from sd CM9 android
keys are as follows
qwertyuiop returns 789-=[];' and one other char like ' but I can't it.
asdfghjkl returns abcdefghi
zxcvbnm returns opqrstu
1234567890 returns nothing except 8,9 and 0 returns 0,1 and 2 respectively
Shf button just adds a lowercase m before the above letters.
This could be due to VNC or specific ubuntu build.
will try using Ubuntu 0.3a and mouse.
The key windows are a bit small and should me made bigger within the keyboard window, because the main problem with any onscreen keyboard is the sensitivity of the touchscreen.
A maximise/minimise toggle button would be handy because the actual buttons are tiny.
Also a text window at the top of the keyboard showing the last line of text would be useful (like old typewriter software), then you could maximise the keyboard window to fill the screen without having to check your spelling in the document.
Best of luck with your projects
thanks for testing,
i will try to make change as you suggest and up load as soon as finish.
i used us_en char set may you are using dirfrent i will check also that.
please do a faver if you can some pics from v0.3.
thanks againg.
Have attached screenshot.
All buttons seem to work as they should using 0.3, so must have been different default keyboard in 10.10.
Note the keyboard was "always on top" and the tray buttons were grey
hi,
sorry for late responce i was rewriting everything from scratch.
now it should work on any desktop running xserver and gtk.
i have ported linux to my poor samsung 551 for testing in vnc.
samsung have very low screen resolution 400x240 but keyboard work as expected.
changes:
1. fonts are now more bigger and bold.
2. added configuration file buttons and size are configurable.
3. now there are 2 versions 1 for arm and another for x86.
please let me where i can add min/max button.
out of topic:
is there any port for samsung 551 or samsung 5510?
if no i have ported i will open a new thread if someone need.
Thank you for your work
Keyboard is a big threat in Linux :/
hi,
please test it if you can.
let me know if you need any help.
Hi ashgi, looking good so far.
It still needs a maximise/minimise button. I tried full-screen mode and couldn't get out. There seems to be no Function buttons either, so that I could do ALT F3.
Menu is good idea though
hi Robbie P,
thanks for testing again.
as i asked please give me advice where i can put a min/max button.
last row ramain same on all three pages so we should put a button on last row but there is no space for new button please sombody let me know witch button from last row should be put on another page (a button that less in use) i will try to add another page for missing keys.
but we should finlize first page.
hi,
uploaded 2 new files.
added min/max button.
added F keys please check in Num fkeys.
added missing symbols.
now we have more space on fkey page please let me know if you want add some more keys.
please test new version.
Looks good, m/M button in good position.
The "<" button returns a ">"
There seems to be a small delay between keypress and the colour changing on the button.
Have you thought further on having a toggled text box on the top of the keyboard window showing the last line of typed text. I think this would be a good idea, you could then maximise the keyboard without having to see what you have just typed, and no need to re-arrange windows for best view on such a small screen.
hi,
i am on debian on debian "<" ">" working as expected.
now tested on ubuntu use difrent keysum uploded new file for ubuntu please check if it work.
i will try to add oneline text editor but with toggle key because everybody may not use this feture.
hi,
uploaded new version 0.12
added toggle text box box.
you can access OBD (On Board Display) from Num fkey OBD.
removed ubuntu version added option "dist" in configuration file.
OBD have MAX. 50 words after 50 it will clear display and start from beginning
it have no effect on actual program where you are writing.
Enter key also clear display.
WARNING: OBD display as you type in clear text even PASSWORDS so use on you own risk.
i am not RESPONSIBLE if your girlfriend read you PASSWORDS
Please test and let me know how it works.
Download TouchKeyBoard from http://www.world-call-trade.com/keyboard/
Will it support russian localization?
hi a4necromant,
i am currently working on localization if you can provide translation i will send you header file.
option for switching lang is added to configuration file.
I like the obd
I was thinking text would start on the Right hand side and as letters are typed the words would scroll to the left until they disappeared or reached 50 letters or a return key was pressed. But that might be tricky to code. And others may not like or use it. Possibly changeable font size in obd?Or proportional to window size?
<> is fine now.
Well done again
Hello All:
I have not been able to find a similar thread, and I apologize if there is one somewhere. I cannot find any guidance on this issue anywhere else online.
S Note, among other apps, provides a default template size that is simply too large for me to write meaningful notes. One sentence seems to take a half a page, regardless of how small I make the text or the pen stroke size. My device is rooted, running Lollipop 5.0.1.
Here is my question: Is it possible to add more space to the default template on the S Note pages? I want to be able to write more on one screen. I simply cannot write any smaller than I am at any reasonable speed. Please offer any tips / advice, as even if your suggestions do not directly answer my issue, I may find the information useful. I have edited the default font / screen size / item size / menu size on everything I can to add more space to my phone's screen in its settings.
