SensorScroll for HTC Touch Diamond / Pro
Tue, 19 May 2009 21:30:00 +0300
SensorScroll is a Windows Mobile application for HTC Touch Diamond and HTC Touch Pro. It uses the touch sensor control for various actions like scrolling, emulating key press and so on, while the user uses the control. It is in beta stage, please use carefully. All bug reports, fresh ideas and recommendations are welcome. Please visit the
developer web site. In our few days playing with this program on our HTC Touch Diamond we liked what we have seen so far, SensorScroll works good and it really is something that is going to stay on the phone.
Instructions:
1. Install the application. It adds shortcut in Programs and in \Windows\Startup folders!
2. Right after installation you can run the application from Programs shortcut to start using it. There is no need for soft reset to have it running for the first time!
3. To use the application open a Window with a vertical scroll bar like Programs or File Explorer and try rotating the scroll sensor clockwise for scroll down and counter clockwise for scroll up. Don't forget to try the touch action too (double tap on the central button to switch on/off and touch the direction keys)
4. To fine tune the application behavior use the SensorScroll Settings application
6. To stop, run it again and you will have an option to stop it.
Notes:
Inside installation folder there is a file named
no_process.txt. The file contains a list of process names which will not be affected by the application (or by SensorScroll Settings). It already has some entries like opera, teeter, etc.
The application is
freeware (and will always stay free)
Known issues:
* Does not work with GScroll ! Both programs act like they have disabled each other.
