Scrolling Gestures Inverted

I tried searching on the topic but couldn't find what I was looking for. For some reason when I am in PIE, SMS, or any application that doesn't fit in the window and I need to scroll, the bar on the far right works fine, but if I use my finger to scroll in the screen it is inverted. If I move it up it goes down, if I go down it goes up. I looked through the TouchFlo options, Cube options, and all the settings and couldn't find anything addressing this. I am using Dutty's WM6.1 Beta.

finger moving up = the page moving up ( to read further down the page ) = scrollbar moving down !!!
what am I missing here ???
isn't that how it work ???

Thats the way touchflo works... Flicker up and it will go down and flicker down and it will go up.

Am I the only one who feels that this is pointless? I don't understand the advantage to the page going down if you flick your finger up and going up if you flick your finger down.

The effect of touchflo is intended to be as if you are "dragging" the page across. Or are you saying that it scrolls down when you flick up and vice versa?

think of it as moving in the direction that you flick it not the direction the scrollbar would take you.

Hi. New here, have some questions about ThrottleLauncher & Touchflow

Hi all.
Kind of new to this all, and just fumbling my way through everything.
I have ThrottleLauncher loaded on my AT&T Tilt, along with Touchflow3d (and TFlow3D_gullum)
And after seeing the youtube clip on the .9 beta and what it can do, I am finding that I cannot get my phone to really respond in all the ways that I'm seeing in the video. Maybe Im missing some plugins or something else, but here are some questions:
First is the main toolbar at the bottom. Whenever I touch it and want to slide it around to get to specific icons, it doesnt really rotate, it just kind of slides a bit and then activates something. I'm not able to scroll around on it unless I use the directional pad on the phone. Also, is it possible to 'replace' programs that launch with the icons? For example, instead of the Phone's contacts launching, can I get it to launch my 'Good' software contact list? Or with the music player, I am using FlipSlide. Can the music icon be reset to launch Flipside instead of the windows media player?
Can those icons on the bottom be put in any specific order?
I also see in the .9 beta video, that you can flip the middle of the screen by the clock to see different clock views or appointments, etc... Not sure which version or theme that is.
I guess my biggest question is how do I get the bottom toolbar to actually scroll instead of activating things, and can that bottom bar be customized to point to other apps?
Thanks.
If I'm posting this in the wrong spot, please let me know.

[Q] Keyboard use/demo videos?

I know no one has the keyboard yet, but does anyone have links to videos that show how the touchpad/dpad works?
Specifically I want to know that I won't have to reach up and touch the screen when i'm using it in laptop mode.
Is there a cursor present? Does it work everywhere or just the browser?

I dont recall where I saw it, but I can confirm that a cursor is present. It works the same as the lapdock for the Motorola Atrix. Clicking is like tapping the screen, click + drag is a swipe. Pretty simple concept.

There was a pretty good video in Italian by HDblog or something like that. I'll see if I can find a link, but you could probably find it pretty easily on YouTube.
It showed a cursor on the homescreen, plus multitouch gestures on the trackpad (pinch-zoom, two finger scroll, etc.)
Edit: I think this is it, but can't confirm because my office blocks youtube.

Thanks for this. Exactly what I was looking for.

You can also 2-finger scroll through your homescreens using the touchpad.

This thread has a couple of You Tube videos of an actual user with the keyboard dock. Look at the second one for the main overview of the keyboard in use. I have to say I can't wait for my dock to come through, it really does look awesome.

This series of videos by Asus does have some examples of keyboard usage, particularly if you scroll down it will show the dock being connected to an external hard drive. Nice!

Pointless theory about Honeycomb unlock screen.

Call me crazy, but I'd like opinions from anyone using a Xoom or custom Honeycomb ROM.
I noticed on the unlock screen, the larger circle has a small "opening" with a lock in the same direction.
I think originally, the circle could only exit from that opening, and that was how you unlocked it. But to make it more user-friendly, before release, they allowed it to exit any part of the larger circle, without closing the "opening" in the larger circle or removing the lock image outside the larger circle. It's hard to explain, but if you look at the Honeycomb unlock screen, it looks like it was not intended to be unlocked by dragging in any direction, but by dragging only in one direction. This looks a bit different than the "rippled waves" version, because it was an iPhone clone, but it shows the same thing I'm explaining: http://ipodtouchtricks.net/wp-conte...oid-honeycomb-lockscreen-theme-for-iphone.png
EDIT: Maybe this would be better in the android themes section. Can a mod put this where it belongs?

Move status bar to the bottom?

I'm sure most people wouldn't want this but can this be done? If so, can you direct me with a link?
I don't have a nav bar, use LMT. And I'd prefer the look of it on the bottom, similar to Windows. It also would be easy to swipe up with my thumb right there instead of reaching to the top.

I agree. WebOS did this years ago which made viewing, dismissing, and accessing them a breeze. Everything could be done with just your thumb. Today with phones exceeding 5 inches, I regularly drop my phone trying to dismiss something.
I'd love to see this as an option.
I've seen the "tablet" mode option for CM, but that's not available in new versions of android.
