Need help, getting 3d pdf to display with mobile phone. - General Questions and Answers

I have an HTC touch Pro, this bad boy (thanks to xda) can do everything. Even my taxes. I am working in college with CNC programming and 3d parametric modeling, i am sending drawings around all the time but I need to be at a work station to view the models. I use the 3dpdf option to display models in presentations, and thought that it would be efficient to use this on my phone(to show professors, other students, and potential employers) but adobe reader le 2.5 just posts "enable 3d view mode." to witch i can not find an option to do, I know this software is lite and has limited scope but it would be cool if i could get some direction or even an answer to how i could get this working. I know this phone has the power to run a 3d model, i just cant seem to get it to display 3d files in any form what so ever.

could you post a 3d file so i could take a look into getting it workig?

http://www.sendspace.com/file/akvqpb <-- this is a quick model that i did for a friend, just to show what solidworks can do. If you open it in adobe you should be able to twirl the model around. I can add dimensions and views later if you desire but i think this should get you going. thanks in advance for any time you put into this.
On a side note the site i used to host this file uses a lot of advertisements, the link is at the bottom of the page for down load, if you have another site that you would like me to up load it to shot me a link and ill get it done asap.

Problem accessing site with XDA Exec...

Hi All,
i'm trying to access the following site with my XDA Exec (HTC Universal):
http://www.sikhitothemax.com/new/Larree.asp?PageNo=1
ignore the fact that it is another language. as you'll notice, when you hover over the text, a broken up version of the sentence being hovered over appears towards the top of the window. when you hover over the arrows, the text will move up and down you can also enter a page number and jump foward. apart from going up and down pages, there is no clicking involved.
the problem is when i try to access this site on my XDA Exec, all i get are the two arrows and no text. i do get the page up and down buttons though which are active. i don't think it's a font issue because if it was i'm sure i'd get the text mangled-up but there nonetheless anyway...
as a shot in the dark, i installed Macromedia Flash Player (i think 6 0r 7) and this works fine with sites that use flash but no joy with the site concerned - so i guess it maynot be a flash problem...
any thoughts - i'd really appreciate them...
thanks.

I think the problem is that Pocket IE can't run the java script which comprises the entire page. There is no flash and no plain text on it (right click in regular IE then select view source).
Sorry, but I don't know any fix for that.
At least they are building a site version specifically designed for PDAs, when they are done you will probably be redirected there automatically once you access the site from your device.
thanks levenum.
i think they opriginally planned to make the site more pda-friendly but its been a few years now - i guess they gave up on the idea...
any more thoughts anyone?
use another and real browser
pocket IE is a joke

PIE Questions

Hi
I cant get video`s to work on video google, they dont show up when the page loads, plus i hit the download button and theres no response, also when i go to play an internet flash game, the message comes up "PLEASE NOTE : To view this page properly, please enable Javascript and update your flash player.
Now as far as i know i have the latest flash player, so where do i enable javascript, didnt find it anywhere in IE options? I jsut assumed this sort of stuff would just work onm WM5..
Thanks
Sorry to disappoint you, but this kind of stuff - namely JavaScript - does not work even on WM5. It simply isn't there and to the best of my knowledge there is no way to add it.
So for now any site that uses JavaScript (I suspect you have the same problem with google videos) is off limits for PIE.
Right....
Bit of a bummer then ..
Any chance it`ll be dev`d in the future, seems like a bit of a gaping hole if you ask me
Many thanks..
i'd sugest looking into another browser then PIE
ms dont have much compatition left in their eyes
and they dident invent javascripts so they are not
likely to promote and support it unless they have to
any suggestions please?
I tried Minimo to no avail..
Thanks

Any Excel Mobile experts?

I want to do a little sales script tree* for my pocket PC - I could do it in html, but I reckon the speed, even on local files, would not be what I'd need. I need to simply be able to select options and have different screens come up quickly, depending on those choices.
I've no money for any programming packages, so I figured Excel could do it. But Excel Moble looks like it doesn't let me move between sheets using hyperlinks or buttons.... plus does it top out at three sheets??
Anyone with any ideas for a solution/workaround?
*Something like this:
Screen 1 - Intro
"Speaking to Decision Maker? YES / NO"
Screen 2 - Gatekeeper (four options for example)
"Not interested / not present / too busy / why you phoning?"
[...]
Screen 10 - Decision Maker Refusals
"Not interested / In contract / Too busy / Getting great deal / Don't want a visit (etc)"
That kinda thing....
Actually, scratch that - did a bit of playing around with Dreamweaver and Opera Mobile, and it's a plenty fast enough solution.
And using my own self-made GIF buttons in layers it give me total control to tailor it... so now I know what I'll be doing at the weekend...
Also tried Choicetree, but the interface for making the decision tree's was monumentally bad.

[Q] any way to view Sketchup (google) files on Android dev?

I already STFA and did not find what I was looking for. I was wondering if there is an application that will allow viewing of existing Google Sketchup files, editing/creating files - no - not so much, think that would be best done on a full blown desktop, One earlier post was asking about running a fully functional Sketchup, and I tend to agree that it would be too much of a tax on the processor and memory to be feasible for a mobile device. I also found the SketchBook program from AutoDesk which is designed for mobile devices but from what it says it is more like Paint in Microsoft Os's not a CAD type program.
Anybody know if there is anything like that available out there to be able to view Google Sketchup files? Thanks in advance for any information on the subject.
Sorry to wake up an old topic (very old) but I too am looking for such an app.....being a kitchen builder in my spare time I was asked a few times if I had any models on hand to show. And since I do all my sketches in Sketchup, well you guessed it....I can't show them on my tab....
Would be kinda cool to show potential customers how their kitchen might look like if I could just drop existing cabinets in place etc...
If you've already found something would you mind sharing with me? Very much appreciated...

Notes Mobile update

Hi folks
At the moment to me Notes Mobile does the job but only just.
I can tell you that Notesmobile is being developed. I am in possession of Beta 1.1.9 at the moment.
Please don't ask for a copy of it as it is one of the conditions of me having it.
It's a pretty raw beta , so no pen thickness or colour changing or anything.
Major things that I've noted:
1. There is finally a PEN ONLY palm rejection setting that works a treat.
2. The OCR both automatic and freehand conversion seems to be more accurate and quicker
3. You can import a picture , move it and resize it
4. New lasoo system that works a bit better and a few interface tweaks.
5. On the first page you can set up views, so you can further catagorise your notebooks ( So a Personal view with multiple notebooks, a Work related view with multiple notebooks ).
Things it doesn't fix address that I know are on some peoples wishlists:
1. More export options ( still only text and img )
2. Landscape mode
Don't forget though it is a Beta !!
So a heads up that it is being developed and it is certainly a step ahead of the original release.
They expect to release at CES Las Vegas in January, so it shouldn't be far from coming to us though whether it will be a free or paid upgrade I'm not sure but I've asked my contact though it might not be his area within the business.
Thanks a lot. Is there any way for custom backgrounds, or is that not present yet? Also, when you say release in January, they're going to present the new software of Notesmobile at CES? Never really seen new software at CES but yeah, that still sounds awesome. But yeah, I have to ask, are you involved somewhat with the development or do you just have contacts with one of the persons that's working there?
As I say it's a very raw beta.
1. No custom background, only blank, lined, graph and yellow lined a per the previous version.
2. Yes they intend to launch @ CES January 10th 2012 Las Vegas
3. Nope not involved with the Vision Objects at all. I contacted the guys a while ago around Myscript Stylus and as a consequence got chatting with them. They offered me the beta to get my feedback
Nice to hear that it's still being developed. The whole lack of cummunication felt like they've abandoned this app which really has a lot of potential but is right now quite useless for me.
Let's hope they'll add some more export options until January and also a possibility to back everything up.
This application has the raw goods and with a few [meaningful] tweaks and additional features I could become a daily user...
Thanks for the information on the update. I emailed them about wanting a pen-only mode and they simply responded with a cryptic "thanks for your interest we are constantly working to improve our software" reply that contained no valuable information. I am so glad to hear that they are in fact working on it and have implemented a pen-only mode. Hopefully MyScript Stylus will also get pen-only mode in a future update.
With CES just around the corner, I'll be see what the update is on the update .....
I'll let you all know
Any update to this?
TS

It was on the market

Quill is still better tho. still overly complicated writing notes in it.
It doesn't have OCR, but I've been hunting for a few days, and I'm most impressed with FreeNote. It doesn't seem to pick up on my hand on the screen, ever. It uses tags, classifications/categories for organization. It's definitely not a candied Apple app, so it takes some getting used to (it's intuitive enough but not artificially prettied, nothing hides its complexity, tongue is misspelled, and classifications=categories, more or less). It does some truly amazing stuff. I expect it to sell (out) in about March or April, but I'm just some schmuck user, so....
I'm happy to see that Phatware is in the Android game now. I used WritePad on WinMo3-6, but it looks by the reviews like they're having a terrible time. They'll weather it and raise the bar, I'm sure, and when I'm fed up with XT9, I'll likely buy WritePad if it gets even a few good reviews. They deserve a few snacks for PhatPad. I *still* use it on my HTC Advantage sometimes (animated gifs I draw, easy export, and the 5" screen is perfect for quick notes & doodling).
The XT9 handwriting input is pretty amazing (my handwriting sucks, really). I can't figure out why the Notes Mobile App is so bad at recognizing my same awful handwriting. Very eager to see what happens. The inline OCR is what I've been watching for for, like, 10 years.
There is a note app that I have been using called Lecture Notes... works a lot better than Notes mobile. Developed directly on the Lenovo Thinkpad tablet. It is still really new but he updates the thing about three times a week it seems like.
when using it you can disable the touch interface all together so the palm isn't an issue. There is a trial version on the market.
Still the best app for me
For business I'm using a Lenovo Windows 'tablet' with MS Notes. Honestly, that spoilled me. Comming now to Android seems to step back years in history and development. Never the less, I arranged myself with Notes Mobile and Evernotes. The only big issue I have with notes mobile is the unavailable option to export whole notebooks as pdf or pictures.
Why I think Notes mobile is the best compromise:
- The Lasso (u write something and u realise u need more space, the lasso helps! All the other programs require the eraser and to do all the work again...)
- handwriting recognition, that can be easily combined with sketches and quick note...
Only issue
- pdf export
A work around for no PDF export
I installed Cloud Print on my Android device
I installed EStrongs File Explorer (or you could use the native Dropbox client or Dropsync) on my Android device
I set up a Dropbox account with installation on my PC
I installed Bullzip on my Windows PC
I set Bullzip to automatically save "prints" to a Dropbox folder
Anything you can share via Cloud Print (most things) you can print to a PDF.
It's a traffic-heavy way to do it, so it's ungreen, and could be pricey if you're using a paid & limited data plan.
(I discovered this while testing. If anyone can help me get my Epson RX595 to work with Cloud Print app for Android, obviously Bullzip is fine, as are test pages via Cloud Print from Chrome on my pc, I'd be ever so grateful for a PM).
Could someone do me a huge favor and upload the latest version of the Notes Mobile app? I can't install the latest version of your app store to download it and it doesn't show up in the old version. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Feeling a little silly right now, but how do I get the updated version of Notesmobile?
V1.0.0 came with my TPT.
I created an account in Lenovo app shop, but didn't see anything in the "My apps" section. Tried searching for it in the app shop, but it's not showing up either.
Thanks in advance
