I was looking at BT homescreen plugins, and it seems that the biggest drawback is that plugins take up a whole line or row of the homescreen.
I could make more3 use of a line/row if I used a shortcuts bar the an icon to enable and another to disable...
Is this possible?
Under the Internet part of touchflo it has the browser button but underneath its has shortcuts to youtube and myspace.
Is there any way to remove these shortcuts because I will never need to click on either of them?
Many Thanks!
Is it possible to keep the touchflo bar at bottom of homescreen but have the option of standard windows mobile homescreen features like date, messaging, task, calander etc, I don't care much for the big clock taking over half the homescreen ?????
Thanks .....
Guys, I just came across this great piece of software called Widget Window.
You can use it to create floating windows of any existing homescreen widget. It also places a convenient link in notifications where you can get your widgets in and out of the screen. Plus it´s free with no ads. Really recommend it.
Widgets I´m currently using:
Application Monitor - to replace the missing taskmanager from JB
Assistive Light - quick access to a saving torch anytime
Genius Widget - convenient Scientific Calculator (better than stock calc and themed to fit my current homescreen)
Stick Notes HD - quick post-it time of notes as S-Notes should have
Very handy app thanks

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Very nice. I was asking but I just figured it out :
It is possible to resize the floating widget (click just above the floating widget's title bar). There's also a well made help in the app's menu.
Hi Guys,
Can anyone tell me of an Android app that can create Android Shortcuts (Like Contact, Direct Dial ... ) but for actual keyboard shortcuts (like Back, Undo, Home, Copy Paste)?
Let me tell you the reason behind this:
I find that these days, with screen size increasing, we need a more customizable virtual navigation bar to put to the right of the screen, because when holding a bigger fablet, you will only have 1 finger free, and that is the thumb finger, and it points up... it is uncomfortable to point it down to the base of the screen where the navigation bar usually is. Now most apps like this are too simple, and they just stick to the screen, you can't hide them on full screen apps, and you can't add custom shortcuts. And you get that awful and idiotic error "screen overlay detected". It's not like that is an efficient security measure, apps can override that. Android, just make the settings menu temporarily remove any screen overlay !
Anyway, I’m diverging. I have found 2 apps, that if combined would be perfect for that: Meteor Swipe and Menu Button.
Menu Button because it has one of the best shortcut system I have seen (back, home, menu, copy paste, media control), very customizable, but Meteor Swipe has a much better interface, with swipe to change pages and leather skin background.
If I could add Menu Button shortcuts on Meteor Swipe, that would be perfect, but I already talked to the developer, and he is not planning on adding more shortcuts, because it would be too complicated.
But the Developer of Menu Button did a very smart thing: it uses the app as a keyboard, and this allows him to use keyboard shortcuts.
Do you have any ideas for me?
Kind regards,
Daniel
