must be done to put the Spanish keyboard with the letter N?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] anagarika:
My apology if this is stupid, but ...

I'm on QVGA and have installed the QVGA version.

Now I can't seem to find where the ^c is (the hold-shift is there, but there's no ^c, nor Ctrl, nor Copy).

Chris Cross' skin only for WQVGA? No QVGA?

Tried to search the thread, and only found suggestion to use other skins. But I can't find it .. :confused:

htc kaiser - app for manual screen rotation

hi @all

for use of fingerkeyb i'm searching for a working screen rotation app for my kaiser, which makes me able to manual rotate screen into landscape mode without using my hardware keyboard.

so far i tried "gyrator" and also "change screen" but i got always error messages during use. i'm thinking it has to do with fact, that kaiser doesn't have g-sensor. (just tell me, if i'm wrong!;))

does anybody know an app which can realize what i want to do???

as always thx in advance!!!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ohnophone:
Many thanks for the info - I will await the next version.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] utak3r:
there's some bug with shrinking images horizontally in beta... I can resize them both ways vertically but horizontally I can only enlarge them - no shrinking at all, and that's pretty annoying, I have some problems with landscape layouts.... :/

btw, my little daughter went really ill and I won't be able to do all of the qvga layouts, just few of them :(
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] DACHYS:
Please, could you help me. Device Omnia, when traing use - F i n g e r K e y b o a r d 2 it reports me : "Skin error: resolution for screen size not found" . Could you advise me what should I do. I am not so skilful, so i need step by step procedure.

Thank you.

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
Try AEButton plus! This is what I'm using. I have mapped my "end call" hardware key to switch to landscape when I double click it. And it works very well.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
You probably installed incorrect version. Omnia uses WQVGA, so now you need to uninstall whatever you installed, delete all files and folders, download WQVGA version and install again.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] DACHYS:
I have already done this and still the same problem.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] RealGunman:
thx for your hint! very easy config and - it even works. :D

but is there perhaps a smaller app for realize my wish, because AEButton plus takes a lot of memory for that i wanna do with it...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] false_apology:
I've been using FingerKeyboard on and off for a few weeks now. A strange problem has been occurring pretty often that I was hoping to get some help in resolving here. For some reason in certain cases, the "zoomed in" image of the key just sticks on the screen and does not disappear. This seems to happen mostly with the larger keys (shift, "123", the "hide keyboard" button) but does also occasionally will happen with normal keys. It only seems to happen if I tap the button quickly. If I hold down for a slightly longer time it is ok. The problem is this results in the secondary function sometimes when that is NOT what I want. I have attached a screenshot I took of what happens 90% of the time when I minimize fingerKeyboard in landscape mode. If I press and hold it doesn't happen but then it switches back to the sammy keyboard :rolleyes:. I have to press it juuust right to get it work.

My device is a US i910 Samsung Omnia (WQVGA). I've read that certain apps interfere with the rendering methods that fingerkeyboard uses but there is nothing I can think of that I have installed that would do that. I had fingerMENU installed, but removed it as I thought it was the culprit- but, nope, it still occurs. Any ideas what I can do resolve this?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] quantys:
Is there any chance ton have a French Swiss FingerKeyboard like "qwertzuiop" with the é, è, à, ç, etc on the letters like the normal French keyboard.

Or is there a way to change this?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] GuiPoM:
I just installed FingerKb for my Xperia X1. I soft reseted twice. Each time I choose this kb in the menu, I only get a message "error" instead of displaying the application.

I choosed "FingerKeyb-2.0-WVGA.cab", is it correct ?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Nitrius:
On my touch HD with Dutty 2.3 rom, putting my phone in landscape with finger keyboard doesn't work very well, the finger keyboard just sits in the middle of the screen just as it did in portrait, so this possible to fix?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
I know this will not be much of help, but since you're the first person to report such a problem, out of thousands that downloaded it, my common sense tells me that it has to be something specific to your device that's causing this.

Most likely a third party app. Which one? I wish I'd knew... My suggestion would be to uninstall and reinstall FingerKeyboard for a start. If that don't work, then I don't really know :(

However, since you say that this seems to be affected by the lenght of time you press+hold a key, the best solution may be to wait for the next version of FKBD2. Because in this version we're going to offer a way for users to choose how long do they want the press+hold delay to last. So, you will be able to increase the time needed for the secondary function to perform.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
You can edit the French layout txt files and replace the letters you're missing. Or wait for the next version, where you will be able to manually enter up to 12 custom characters onto the keyboard via the Config tool.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
Yes, that is correct.

Did you follow the installation instructions?

Did you try to uninstall / reinstall?

Do you have any other 3rd party keyboard software?

What exactly does the "error" say?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
It's explained in the FAQ, post #3 of this thread, "About problems with landscape mode".
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rynsuloth:
seeing you´re from france: did you uncheck all language boxes except from french? you have to have english checked too, or edit the "DefaultLayout eng" to fra in skin-01-global.

that did it for me.

btw: it seems i can´t edit the keys. every time i try remapping one of the keys, the keyboard goes all black. only help is overwriting the edited language skin with the backuped original. do i have to soft reset every time?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] GuiPoM:
you are right, I unchecked the eng entry. At least that one must remain checked, and of course the french one to get an azerty layout.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
Probably because you're not editing / saving in the right code format. Make sure you save the edited files in UTF8 or Unicode. Use the standard Notepad for this and you'll be fine.

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Chris Cross:
Here is my adapted German version

THANK YOU! Great job. I love it. And the ability to delete an entire word at once is great!

Just like in version 1.4, I am changing the German skin to one that I prefer. There is nothing wrong with the default German skin. I just wanted to customize mine to what works better for me. That's part of the beauty of FingerKeyboard. :) And in case someone else is interested, I am sharing it here.

Some of the changes are:

GERMAN

1. I added two more keys where there was empty space.

2. I made ä, ö, ü to be above a, o, u (that's just my preference)

3. I made CUT, COPY, and PASTE to be over X, C, V (to match PC shortcuts)

4. Replaced numbers on top row (qwertzuiop) with other characters.

5. Added the Spanish "ñ" since I also type in Spanish

6. Added keys for: www, .de, .com, .net, .org, .co.uk, .edu

Here is the portrait skin. I have not worked on the layout skin yet.

I hope this helps someone. :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Chris Cross:
See the very first post. It is explained there under "SIP Change"

I fixed it to type # (see one of the attached zip files).

I don't know if originally it was meant to be a ! key

Switch to another keyboard (HTC or Windows Mobile etc)

Paste the new skin files into /Program files/FingerKeyb and overwrite the one you have there.

Switch back to Fingerkeyboard

I added the ñ to an english skin. For that version, see attached zip file. Paste both skin files into /Program files/FingerKeyb.

Switch back to Fingerkeyboard for the changes to take effect.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Chris Cross:
German in landcape

I have the same problem. I cannot view german in landscape. I made a skin for german landscape (see attached file). However, I cannot test it, because I only get the numbers in landscape. And if I change global back to default eng - then I only have english landscape.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] seal:
Sorry if this has been asked before.

How do you use Caps Lock, I can't seem to find it on any Keyboard, I use Capitals alot and find that these keyboard look the greatest and I would love to use them but they are so slow to use when doing capitals so I go back to the original WM Keyboard and use gestures.

Please tell me there is a caps lock function in this keyboard and how do I activate it??? Because this keyboard is awesome and I don't have to use a stylus. Thanks.

FEELING LIKE AN IDIOT..... worked it out hold the button and in the HTC keyboard its double tap..... STILL FEELING LIKE AN IDIOT.

doesnt work with my HTC TyTN II, any help???

I wanted to really use this and give it a try but each time, I get resolution error and it wont work :(
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
v2.1 Newsflash!

Ok, guys... Time for some small news, since I know a lot of people are on the lookout for the v2.1.

Exidler is back tomorrow evening, and hopefully my health will improve as well, so we'll get on with the final preparations for launching v2.1.

In the mean time, I'm working on a FingerKeyboard web site design (still hoping to have it ready for the launch).

I've also spent last few days working on a nice little video that shows off some of the most common functions of FingerKeyboard 2.1. You can check it out

HERE

.

Also, our beta testers have been working on VGA / QVGA layouts, so I now dare to say that we'll have better default support for these resolutions then the last time. I still can't promise we'll have all layouts included for these versions, but there will definitively be some. The missing will again be added as we move along.

As I'm sure you've noticed, I haven't mentioned any release dates - because it seems that every time I say "we'll publish by XXX" something bad happens. I don't wanna jinx it this time :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] RealGunman:

Halo,

it doesn´t work for me. I am on the German one, when I put the German files in the programs install dirctory and start FingerKeyboard and mark the button of ger in the program itself and start it by the keyboard menu "Fingerkeyb" ist always brings: Error.

What I am doing wrong? How I told you the files from the German site I put into the install directory.

Please tell me where´s my mistake?

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] RealGunman:
hey, landsmann :D

which type of resolution (vga, qvga and so on) or which device are you using?

there are three possibilities for you:

1. for qvga i'd be able to send you my skins-folder.

2. by using another resolution than qvga please contact chris cross. he's surely able to help you.

3. just wait for launch of v2.1 in the next days. as far as i know also german language will be included now. so it may be the probs you have will be solved by itself with new version.

in the end it's up to you... ;)

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rynsuloth:
you have to check the "eng" button too or it won´t work. or edit DefaultLayout to ger
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
Automatically no, but if you minimize it before switching to landscape, and then open it back again, it will be in landscape.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] raz0r09:
Hy,

I am using the Touch HD with QVGA.

So it would be glad if you can send me your configuration data.

Thank you!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Lehnsherr:
Thanks for the heads up!

In other words I have to change windows mobile to landscape manually...is there any program, if you know of that automatically changes only the sms part of windows mobile to landscape?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] RealGunman:
sorry but touch hd doesn't qvga-resolution! as far as i know it's vga (480 x 800). so it seems the error is caused by using wrong install-cab.

just have a try...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] michi123:
Actually 480x800 is WVGA. VGA is 480x640......
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] RealGunman:
oh yes. i saw the mistake by reading my post again. sorry! ;)

but the fact is touch hd does not have qvga resolution... :D

I've created a theme (well actually just modified the normal one). It adds a CTRL key on the right side of the keyboard that allows you to type any control key also. In addition I've added an ESC key and all of the normal keyboard characters, plus a few others.

I did all of this so i can use PocketPutty to manage my server and needed ESC for vi and the Control keys for joe and other programs.
