Hi francarl, good work and magnificent idea. looks like the SIPMenu from Diamond and Opal, do you are using this app like reference?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mamupapers:
Doesn't work in wm5 even installing sdk certs. It look like the files are not installed correctly (no icon). (this happens in the emulator too, so it is not a device issue)

In wm6 (emulator) works good.

new version 1.05 posted
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] m.schmidler:
thanks for the update, works better now.

Two things I´d like to see (beside the config, which is already on the todo list):

- Add Borders and a soft gradient (white to #D7D7D7 or so) for each item, so it looks a bit 3D-ish (look at the original TF3D menus!)

- And try to improve scrolling smoothness

Besides: Really useful and IMHO it should be an inherent part in ROMs.

regards,

Martin
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] francarl:
thanks for your feedback!

can you post an image of TF3D menus please? that will be very useful!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] m.schmidler:
I searched a lot, but couldn´t find any screenshot with the menu..

Could anyone with a Diamond/Pro/HD make a screenshot of the softkey-menu (when adding city to weather etc) ?

Maybe this helps, it looks quite the same as the one on the today screen.

regards,

Martin

Good! rc22 can run well on SKTools now. :)

FingerMenu spends about 16K memory but FingerMsgbox spends almost 512K memory. Can I decrease memory useage in FingerMsgbox?:confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tomaka:
Thanks for rc22

Thanks for the new version, so far do good!

While I was waiting for a bug to come up, a few suggestions came to my mind:

- Custom message box can not be dragged around to a different section of the screen. I use that feature from time to time to look at something underneath and I kind of miss that function. Are you planning to add that in a later version?

- I sometime (more often than drag the msgbox around actually ;) ) use my dpad to navigate the menus. On the regular menu, when you highlight the top most item and press up, the selection goes to the first item at the bottom, like a circle (same logic when pressing down on the bottom item). Could you implement that in FingerMenu, it would sure help?

Thanks for your efforts, FingerSuite already rocks! :cool:

rc22 : sktools still has problems

I still have problems with SKtools. If I try to free up ram, there is normally a popup message from sktools that confirms the amount of ram that is freed. Even with the RC22 I can not see that popup message. Sktools stays with the 'exceptionlist' of fingersuite for me.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Pelad0:
Hi Francesco. I was using the beta version of FingerSuite v1.11 RC22 and only encounter one problem: I have installed the application WM5NewMenu, when I run it the menu is displayed correctly, but when I select an option nothing happens, and the Close command on the right softkey remains. If I click on Close, it closes the FingerMenu and didn't launch the menñu option, but if I click the X button executes the selected option in the menu.

(Sorry for my bad english)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] geogeo0712:
before rc22 vision I found the bug. But now when I clean ram and registered list the popup message showed well. Maybe your SKTools is older vision?:)

Wow! Thank you. This is damn near perfect. Haven't tested fully yet, but so far it looks great. If I have one issue/complaint it would be in the settings configuration menu I can't see everything in portrait mode. I have to switch to Landscape in order to see/read every option.

Is there going to be a way for Finger Menu to take over the standard WM new text, MMS, call, VM, and connectivity menu boxes?

Oh, and the font on the menus was larger on v1.10... is there any way that this can be brought back?

Hi Francarl

Not sure you remember me.. it's abt the problem I faced when using Finger Suite on Pocket Breeze (today plugin). You told me to manually exclude the 'Shell32.exe) (or something like that.. can tell me again?). But I told you I don't know how to manually add it into the exception list cos' I can't call up the keyboard to key in the name.

Can you help?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] francarl:
go to Settings->System->FingerSuite

go to exclusion list tab

type (not select) "shell32.exe" in combobox then click Add button

hope this can help you.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Sian:
Hi Francarl

As mentioned, I can't even call up the keyboard to type in the word 'Shell32.exe'. Is there any other way to include it manually?

I got another user feedback at Pocket Breeze forum saying that he is facing the same problem. Told him your solution. Hope it works for him.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Co0kieMonster:
@francarl: Thank you for an awesome program :)

The only thing that bugged me with FingerMsgbox is that horizontal stripes are visible on the buttons (on VGA at least). I figured this was because of the center png being stretched, so I made a quick skin with wider pngs to try to clean it up.

As far as I have tested, it works fine. VGA only.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dreamcatch:
Hi

I am this other user and I can confirm that I was able to add shell32 to the exclusion list and fingermenu seems to be disabled in PocketBreeze. I just wished there was a way to make it work in PocketBreeze...

Great software but at the moment it is a little big buggy.

I'm using HTC Touch Pro with the lastest official ROM (CE OS 5.2.20764 (Build 20764.1.4.3) Rom version: 5.05.401.1 WWE).

Menu works great but I saw today that when FinderSuite notifications are active I can't see who's calling. The message box with caller's number, caller's photo and button "slide to answer" is empty and the only way to answer the phone is to use hardware button.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Reichi:
I've got a bug for you:

I've got a german Diamond and when using the Explorer and "My Device" (in German "Mein Gerät") is select the Menu-Replacement doesn't work here.

Sometimes the Messagebox replacement doesn't seem to work (i feel this happens pretty much randomly).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tcatnat:
This happens to me on my Touch Diamond randomly before I installed FingerSuite. I cannot pinpoint the source but I know it was definately pre FingerSuite. It only happens a couple of times a month so I basically ignore it for now.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Sian:
Hi

You mean you can pop up the keyboard? I am using TouchPal.. not sure whether that's the reason..

I manage to add Pocket Breeze into the exception list by pressing the left softkey when I launch the Finger Menu (e.g. press and hold on PB to call up the Finger Menu). Ya, like you.. I wish I can use Finger Menu in PB too. Found it to be conflicting with a Chinese ebook Reader too. It remove the reader scrolling ability.. don't know why... weird.

A minor problem of FingerMsgBox

This is a great program. I loved it.

But I have following problem.

Selecting the soft-reset function under the tab of Spb PocketPlus will freeze up the screen and there is no response on the "Yes" or "No" option of the pop-up FingerMsgBox (Screen01.jpg). I have to push the soft-reset button by stylus under the battery cover.

However, selecting the soft-reset function from the pull-down menu of Spb PocketPlus will be fine and the FingerMsgBox works properly (Screen02.jpg).

I tested it on my Xperia.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] CLHatch:
Have the drop-down menus drop down?

Would it be possible to change the drop-down menus to actually drop down in FingerMenu, or start start from center of the screen, instead of starting at the bottom? Similar to how HTC did it in their obvious rip-off of your work. :p

Edit:

Actually, it seems HTC has three ways of doing it... the softkey menus go up from the bottom, the drop down menus drop down from the top, and the context menus (holding on an item) zooms out from the center.

File Explorer (unlike Notes, Calendar and Tasks) does not use MessageBox api to display its messagebox (instead it uses custom dialog box) so FingerMsgbox can replace it. Thank you.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zoulag:
The app is great. I'm using it since the 1.10 and had no problems.

Now with the introduction of FingerMsgBox, in version 1.11 (a great addition by the way), the following problem occurred. I'm using WkTASK 1.2.0.2 and when I select the Reboot function, will freeze up the screen and there is no response on the "Yes" or "No" option of the pop-up FingerMsgBox. I have to push the soft-reset button under the battery cover.

I use the same software I used with the previous version (1.10), and when I dissable the FingerMsgBox, the problem no longer exists.

My device is the Touch HD, with Black Pearl 1.7 ROM by Panosha.

Hope you resolve these minnor bugs and thank you for your time.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Sian:
I think you should exclude WkTask from Finger Suite.

no config menu

Hello

that's a great app you've made, and I just moved from FingerMenu 1.10 to FingerSuite 1.11, but I have an issue with the configuration

On my French HTC Diamond, the config menu icon is not present in settings\systems, so I can't customize what I want...

I read the topic without finding any solution... Am I the only one facing that issue ?

Anyway, if someone can help me to get this config menu back, I would appreciate.

isn't setting icon not present also after soft-reset?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] curious george:
Still a bug in wm contacts. Can't view by categories. Only option is name or company. Odd thing though, if you turn fingermenu off and use the default menu and do the same thing they're there of course, then go back in with fingermenu and the categories are there for that use only.

I also tried to remove and re install it a couple of times, but still not working...

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zoulag:
Sorry for not mentioning it in my first post, but I 've already tried that. Unfortunately, it seems that the exclusion list works only for the "FingerMenu" and not for both of them. I tried excluding Total Commander, and it worked perfectly, for both apps, FingerMenu and the FingerMsgBox.

Thank you.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] francarl:
this is not exactly true. You have to restart FingerMsgbox in order to reload exclusion list. No need to restart for FingerMenu instead. Sorry for that, I'll fix it in next version.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zoulag:
I'll restart the FingerMsgbox and see if that fixes the problem. No need to be sorry, you're doing great. Keep it up

I experienced the same problem on my Diamond (Stock WWE 2.03). But if you touch the blank box below "Program Files" it will take you to Internal Storage (or "Storage Card" as shown in your screenshot)....for some reason it just cant display "Internal Storage"/"Storage Card".

FingerSuiteCPL.cpl seems to be uncompatible with SPB Mobile Shell. The icone appears in the "regular" setting view, but not in SPB's one.

Trouble with MsgBox and TouchPal

Hi,

I love Message Box replacement... Unfortunatly I cannot use it ! It seems to have compatibility issue with TouchPal.

When you are using the free version of TouchPal, after som time using it, it displays a message box telling you some functionalities are disabled. This message box is displayed by FingerMsgBox but buttons are behind the keyboard and it's impossible to click. Even more the phone is stucked, only option is the hard reset !!

I tried to exclude the application but I didn't find the correct one !

Hi Francarl

Apart from Pocket Breeze, I found out the iLauncher by the same company - SBSH also has conflict with Finger Suite (Finger msg box to be exact, and maybe only with the 'Soft reset' feature). How can I exclude iLauncher, which is a launcher place on Today too (plugin as well?) I already have Shell32.exe in the exception list.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zenkinz:
i believe that's because the pop up menu is dynamically updated by the contact apps, based on the list of categories available. thus, there's no way fingermenu will be able to intercept the new updates ..
