HTC Home Under....

Is there a way to allow the HTC Home to 'unlock' so you can place it below other things on the Today screen. Currently, the only thing you can place above it is the date....

like i said in few posts ....
hklm/software/micosoft/today/items/htc home(home plug..)
change "type" key value from 5 to 4 there.
wait a bit and SR, or just turn home on, if it is inactive while reg changing.
then it will be movable as normal plug.

Remap F11 Key

There is no F11 key on the Shift, which is very annoying for full screen browser operation - can anybody suggest the best way to fix this please?
I use firefox, and there are several plugins for use with smaller screens, which shrink or remove the menus and give you an onscreen icon to switch to fullscreen.

Thanks, I use FF too, with LittleFox and FullerScreen addons. There is no on-screen button for full screen though as far as I can see?
Fullerscreen gives me a small icon at the bottom right of the browser window, which switches to full screen when clicked.

I understand your pain.. FF is so bad in full screen ... but there is a button in IE to go full screen without using the F11 key ! you just need to press "tools" and then "full screen" and it's ok ..isn't it ?

Yes that's true, but what about coming back from full screen?
Move the cursor to the bottom of the screen, the toolbar pops up again.

It's not that easy.
With my fingers I cannot get there. So I need the pen.
And even with the pen in the upper corner it does not always work nicely.
to get back
Realize that, with such a small screen, you continuously switch from full to normal IE screen.
F10 would be great for me.

you know... when I will have the shift .. I will keep IE in full screen and use alt+tab (or flip 3D) to switch between windows.. and never come back to non-full screen.
why do you need to come back in normal screen ? alt-tab and flip3D are not enough ?

Maybe that's not such a bad idea at all.
You know. Working with normal screens, I am not so much used to shortcuts. I use to click the toolbar down there to select other things.
And now... Alt Tab...
You know something. I have about 30 years of computer experience, and never thought about it.
You are never too old.....
And in the future somebody will come up with some solutions when the keyboard is closed.

yeah I understand !!!! you know , the shift's mouse is like the mouse on my first computer (20 years ago) which had a trackball on the right side of the notebook. the trackball can be detached.
keyconfig firefox addon allows you to remap any keyboard shorcut. I use it to change Full screen to F9 instead of F11.

even worse.... I use this one http://webpages.charter.net/krumsick/
So I also can use it with IE.
And I also solve my eternal capslock problem by mapping the CapsLock to Left Shift.
And the tab key is my F11 now.

Inner Circle / Favorite

I've read that the inner circle button on the HTC SNAP is known as the "Favorite" button on the Dash 3G and is configurable. Can someone with a DASH 3G confirm this and has anyone tried to extract the app and test it on the HTC SNAP so we all can configure the button ?

I have the Dash 3G, and its true the button is used as a favorite or shortcut key... I will have to look into if it is actually an application or just a shortcut launcher

How to drag something from the homescreen

I should have put a '?' in the title, but I can't edit it.
I want to drag something from the middle homescreen to one of the side screens but don't have any luck.
Any tips?

Try dragging it to the very edge and holding it there.
or if that doesn't work (mine is very picky at times). Delete the short cut from the middle screen. Slide to the screen you want it on, open the app drawer, select and drop on the screen.

It worked, thanks. Just found out I have 5 home screens on Super-D.
I've also noticed that if I can't drag an icon or widget to another screen in portrait mode, I am usually successful by switching to landscape mode. For some reason it makes moving icons and widgets a lot easier.

[Q] Start Menu instead of Home Screen

Hi Folks,
since years I am looking for the right Home Screen. using Touch Flo, Manila, SPB Shell and countless others I didnt found the right one for me.
When 6.5 with reworked Start menu was launched I was wondering that I always use it for launching apps.
Has anyone a hint for me how to disable "Home Screen" and use Start menu instead of that?
Thynks in advance!

I can't answer your question exactly, but I have a couple of workarounds.
Use a key mapper to change all buttons/home button to launch the startmenu, or just use a today screen with all the links on the front, such as today launcher / spb pocket plus etc...

not bad idea !
Why are you not using iphone today or even todayx plugin(a WP7 like home screen) ?
Well, Wisbar Advance is the only app I can think of which actually gives the ability of a cascading start menu, or you can just opt for windows 7 (if only!)
