Francarl, been using your wonderful suite all day long and gotta say you've outdone yourself. I must admit it took me a while to find the setting for it because I didn't know it was under the Setting tab now. Everything seems to be working fine for me, especially the FingerMsgBox. 1 "bug", if you could consider it, I found is that auto-closing message boxes (like turning iLock off) no longer auto close. But with the slick new message box, it's not really an issue. Also, having the same start up issue as others.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dody:
Not working for WM5 right?

cause it didnt work for me
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zenkinz:
@Francarl,

need your help to advise why your program is not in my "remove program" list. Not that I want to uninstall your program, but I was wondering if there's some registry setting that's prevent the program from appearing in the list.

also, it'll be good if you hack the notification bubble window :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] francarl:
Set autostart to no, reboot device, then try to install cab again. It should ask you to uninstall old version. Keep me informed, please. Thank you.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] :
many system warnings had a sound being played while displayed, is it possible to have msgbox do the same?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zenkinz:
where/how to set autostart to no?

anyway, I'm hard-resetting my phone, will see if this helps.

also, the finger menu doesn't show Chinese character well, at least for the SIP menu ...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] francarl:
autostart can be set in control panel applet.

Try to remove font settings from settings.ini so default system font will be used.

thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zenkinz:
Thanks, will try the font setting later as I just got my phone charge up.

as for the autostart, I didn't see that, but I will take note. After I hard reset, the problem goes away, I can actually see your program in the remove program list.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Timb320:
OK is there a VGA version of this skin with green highlight for 1.11? This one is nice.. :)

So far No bugs with 1.11 Franceso :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Timb320:
I ment of this skin::)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Timb320:
ITry again, I'm refering to this post/skin:

GreenSkin for 1.11 fingerMenu

OK I resized it on my own, note: I renamed the btn_arrow_up/Down as the btn_up/Down already had the nice arrow in it. :)

Here it is attached. Just extract and copy in the GreenSkin Folder Under FingerMenu\Skins\

Then under FingerMenu Settings select the GreenSkin. :):)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Timb320:
So far I have yet to find any major bugs, My only thing I might recommend is making the btn_up/btn_down for scrolling buttons just a little bigger in VGA (not sure how it is in qvga) I have an htc touch Pro (unlocked).

Those buttons , if you could make them about the same size you had them for 1.10 that would be great for my big fingers. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dody:
Any one know how to make it work for WM5

or it is not possible ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] francarl:
this is just possible:

1) height of selection_<q>vga.png determines height of menu item.

2) height of btn_up<down>_*.png determines height of up/down buttons.

thank you.

1.11

Francarl,

Any chance of testing your Fingersuite 1.11 for me ? See my PM of yesterday.:)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zenkinz:
hi francarl,

Thanks the setting.ini tips work for me. In fact, I change the font to Tahoma with regular style, so that it doesn't appear as a bold text.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] DocMAX:
i need the beta. can anyone send it to me?

also there are no indicators that there are more items on a menu (up down arrwos)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] vonbraun66:
I tried the 1.11 beta. Nice. Only bug I have seen so far is the pop-up messages in sktools. Luckily you can disable FingerSuite for specific programs.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] htctoucher:
is fingermenu v1.11 the same as fingersuite 1.11?

i have the fingersuite installed, not sure which beta, but it says fingermenu 1.11 and fingermsgbox v1.00

is this the latest?

either way.. here are two simple themes.. one has a blue title bar like wm6.5, and one a grey

i skinned only for qvga..if i get request ill do vga ;)

looks like this *it is a screenshot from my device, i just included all the icons and the winmo6.5 titlebar in the same screen to show you what it all looks like*:

i made the buttons smaller, because they were too large i thought, and the text was too low on them IMO

enjoy!

htctoucher
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] francarl:
great work, thanks. VGA version will be appreciated.

Sorry, but i haven't latest release candidate, which is v1.11rc9. PM your email address so I can send you this version. Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zenkinz:
VGA skin please! :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
Fantastic as usual HTCToucher.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dody:
Waiting to support WM5
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dreamcatch:
Fingersuite (1.11) doesn't seem to play nice with Pocketbreeze. When I try to delete an appointment my Polaris (WM 6.1) freezes as soon as the msgbox appears...:-(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] francarl:
new beta rc19 sent to beta testers!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] redvil:
grazie non vedevo l'ora dell'italiano...

thanks a lot...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] claus1953:
Very nice skin for the message box, do you have the same also for the fingermenu?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
Thanks for the new beta. Start testing when I get home.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] htctoucher:
well i have a skin for fingermenu (see my signature.. its in the second post of the gloss theme)

its kind of the same style, with the same color scheme

update for fingerbox skin:

the screenshot above is bad quality for some reason, the buttons are not jagged like that, they are smooth i assure you ;)

changes:

*supports new rc19 version (changed the settings file)

*added htc style skin

*added vga support for all three skins ;)

*htc style is not pictured, but i based it off of the htc camera app*

i havent been able to test vga.. if someone could let me know how they look (especially the header for VGA) i would greatly appreciate it

enjoy!

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bogdatov:
Where is HTC skin for Menu ?

Hi, htctoucher, can you post zip file for fingermenu too ? Not just for the box
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] claus1953:
Installed the new beta.

Findings:

Both programs work on my device.

When closing S2U2 by iLock, normally the pop up notification closes itself, but with FingerBox one has to close it manually.

SMS notification does not get changed.

Even if checked as starting up at boot after soft reset or booting up i have to start both programs manually. My path is usual one windows/startup.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] aussiebum:
Also installed new beta.

Findings (so far): Default WinMo File Explorer (fexplore.exe) dialog boxes still do not get "skinned" by FingerMsgBox.

Suggestion: Option to "manually" close FingerMenu / FingerMsgBox without having to restart? It makes uninstallation a lot less time consuming and painful....

Otherwise so far so good :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] francarl:
curiously, fexplore do not use MessageBox function to display its message, as tasks, poutlook, pie and notes, but uses custom dialog box. You can notice that delete message box is different from fexplore to notes, for example (another strange thing from microsoft...). These's nothing that can I do to resolve this.

I'll add again a program to close FingerSuite application, but rebooting after unistalling is strongly recommended!

thank you
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tomaka:
Great piece of software!

This software is a huge success! It really makes a big difference in the way I use my wm phone. Congratulation for the idea and the dev, it works flawlessly!

Maybe I missed something, but is there a way to "fingermenurize" the notification area in the upper bar? If not I think it would be a great enhancement for that not-finger-friendly area that would make it much more accessible. Moreover it seems to fall right into the FingerSuite philosophy. What do you think about that? :confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] francarl:
really working on it....
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tomaka:
Excellent :D

That would really make your software the ultimate finger friendly application!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] geogeo0712:
Got it! Now testing and will pm you bug ASAP!

It's still show default WM msgbox on File Explorer when I delete items.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zenkinz:
franc,

I drop you an email, but thought maybe I post over here as well

I uninstall the previosu rc version, reinstall the latest version, and it's working fine but now the remove program doesn't show the application again (something i reported in the forum before). When I hard-reset a few days back, and I install your previous version, it did show up, but now it doesn't.

I don't see any auto restart option in the control panel, so I just re-install the pack and reboot, the effect is still the same.

Never mind. I installed it manually and it works great!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] francarl:

Now i need spanish, french, portuguese, and so on...can anyone help me?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tomoffel:
I can try it with the help of google :)

or you can write down all the strings, and someone just copy them and write the translated string behind it, so you (or I) can quickly copy them to ResHack :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Major A:
I can make your french translation. PM me.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] francarl:

hm.. I can't write the Cyrillic text in ResHack, just shows ? :( can you convert them to latin? :)

I updatet all the MUIs, I forgot to change the labels/language of the menu and string tables. Hope they work now correct :) (Thank you Francesco for the hint in your email :) )

redownload the new ones :) DONT use the old! Sorry for that :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] deaDleSs balLoon:
Hmm... ResHack... Now I now kungfu :)

Will wait for release to test my translation before posting :)

Or, maybe someone can give me english mui files for translation, because my knowledge of french, spanish and even svedish languages is worse than english (which is poor too as you can see).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mhrc4:
wanted to say i started using this yesterday, really looking forward to upcoming releases, software works like a charm
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tomoffel:
you can send the files to me, and I test them for you :)

You seen to much Matrix? :P

Can a WWE rom show cyrillic characters? If so, you can send the files to me, and I test them for you :) else, you have to wait till francarl messages you :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jiles:
It can, but you need to set "russian" in regional settings first
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] deaDleSs balLoon:
nonono, i want to see russian text in natural context to test the translation quality, not the ability to show cyrillic letters. So thanks, will wait for release.

There can not be too much matrix :cool:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] radatia:
I've not seen this mentioned elsewhere in the thread....at least my searching didn't pick it up....but I can't toggle fullscreen on/off in internet explorer when using fingermenu.

Any fix for this?

Otherwise a very happy user.

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tomoffel:
hehe, okay ;)

I like you :D

rc20

after one day of use can report overall speed performance improvement. FingerMsgBox still not working with SPB pocket plus 4.0.1 massages. Also noticed some battery leakage but not sure that it`s because of Finger suite
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] DocMAX:

I am getting a strage error, after I am closing the config program.

Than after a short while the meassage is appearing that

FingerMenue is not certified or is not found

the same is with FingerMsg

Any idea?

Is there a problem with the folder "Programme"?

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] htctoucher:
rc21 is working great

i love the added autofit it makes it look a lot better

i would really like to see an animation like the htc notification in camera app (it "pops" onto the screen)

other than that, i am not getting any problems other than that the copy/move boxes arent skinned but you say thats custom boxes so ill deal :D

good stuff!

keep up the great work

Some users reported that rc21 installer delete uncorrect pngs (vga instead of qvga and viceversa) on some device!! If this happens to you, please copy correct skin from cab and restart fingersuite. Sorry for mistake. Also reported into first post.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] herczyn:
great app!

i have a bug report and a feature request thought :)

1. try google maps - there are some small squares

2. i like the option to disable the arrows but it would be nice to see a hint that there is more in this menu. a red line line or something like that.

anyway, great app, very useful and fast!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dingolino:
could you please identify those 2 files.

I unziped the cab file but which one are the skins?

or could I use the skin folder from rc20?

Many thanks

Expand to E-Mail/SMS Popups?

This is a great application. Finger navigation is so much better now, plus it brings a great look to the phone. The Suite covers menus and popups with the exception of e-mail and sms message popups - could the program be expanded easily to cover these or would that be a major undertaking?

Providing popups for e-mail and sms messages would result in some great skinning opportunities that would really change the appearance of the phone. A similar application already exists for smartphones (non-touch screen). You can check it out at www.qorefunctions.com - it's called Smartphone Popups.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] aussiebum:
What versions of Resco Explorer and TaskFacade are you using? I've had no issues with 1.10 onwards for either of those programs (and I'm running Resco 7.05 and TaskFacade 4) - until my phone runs low on memory anyways.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jambaj0e:
Nevermind, I got it excluded. I closed FingerMenu under Config, put down WM5NewMenu, then restarted WM5NewMenu.

For future versions, can you make WM5NewMenu automatically excluded, at least until the problems with it are resolved?

Also, since the right softkey is used for Close, how about using the left softkey for Back, as in going back up one menu level?

All in all, great software, man I love XDA!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] yjhyx520:

HAVE A LITTLE ：

If the characters give the region together with the upper and lower line, then better

The second picture is from ps, and the outcome will be good points
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ejoya:
ok.. i thought the cab works in resco.. it works under file explorer but it is slow when the menu scrolls up..will try to edit it further later.. im also experience the double menu..

This would be cool if it worked for all the menus. Oh well keep up the good work.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] yshaikh01:
Working perfectly on my Touch, but with a few bugs.

1 - Why doesnt the file explorer menu have an "EDIT" sub menu like the default one?

2 - You cannot get into options in WMP once FingerMenu kicks in on the main player screen. (Might be same as above problem)

3 - When going through sub menu's i.e Menu>New>Text Message, to select "Text Message" you have to tap the screen twice.

4 - I have to some times try two or three times for the FingerMenu to pop up.

The following ClassName enabled the FingerMenu for all apps

ClassName=menu_worker
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] francarl:
this is a bug, sometimes FingerMenu doesn't display the last menu item (you see FingerMenu separated by softkey bar!!). Working on it....

Can't reproduce this, it works for me

known bug, working on it....

when you start a new application configured for FingerMenu, you have to WAIT a little before pressing menu. This happens because the injection process of DLL is periodic. You can adjust this periodicity by setting the ScanInterval registry value (see post #1). Default is 3 seconds. At worst, you have to wait 3 seconds before FingerMenu become active for application!

please DO NOT USE window class "menu_woker" and "MS_SOFTKEY_CE_1.0". In next version I'll remove them by software.

Thanks a lot for your bug reporting.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jaime Méndez:
Hi

1.04 Installed

I still have problems with StartMenu. StartMenu gets blocked up with FingerMenu and non of them work whenever I import my reg file with 47 ClassNames. I have to disable all of them and enable them back again to fix it.

Any ideas?

Regards,

Jaime.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joel2009:
double menu problems seems to be solved in 1.4 but the transparency issue is still around....
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] yshaikh01:
Thanks, any particular reason not to use this as I can't seem to find the ClassName to make menu's in SMS work for me.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mamupapers:
is this application for WM6 only? I've tried it in my HTC P3600 with WM5 but as soon as I launch it I get this error: The file FingerMenuCTRL cannot be opened. Either is not signed with a trusted certificate or one of its components cannot be found. You might need to reinstall or restore this file. (this is the error in the english emulator, in my device I obtain the same error in italian language..its an italian rom!)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lesscro:
Try this... then install FingerMenu again...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joel2009:
TRANSPARENCY ISSUE SOLVED!

Set your transparency level to 255 (yes i know that is the equivalent of opaque, don't worry it will still be transparent.) The background is already transparent so i think it is getting confused with a transparent transparecy. (if that makes sense :) )

navigate to local machine (hklm) in your registry editor then go software then finger menu. there should then be a transparency key present. just change that to 255 and restart finger menu. voilla!!!

Thanks for the setting in the 1.4 update!

let me know how this works for the rest of you having problems!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ejoya:
is there a way to disable the scroll animation? although it looks cool to have a scroll animation, i find it slow and jerky... I think its better if it scrolls fast to avoid too much waiting time for every menu to show up..

a fade in fade out will be a good addition if its not too hard for you.

another thing i notice is that when i click on a softkey, the original menu shows up for a split second then your program overrides it. Is there a way to disable that split second that shows up the original menu?

thanks for this great software.. Ive been looking for this kind of software because i find the original menus not finger friendly at all.

I'll be willing to beta test every build if you want to.. pm me
