[REQUEST] Surface Dial mod - Microsoft Surface

The new surface studio just got announced and the surface dial as well. When the surface dial comes out do you think someone will be able to mod it where we can access the surface dial menu and do everything the dial can do but without having the dial. Using touch.
If this is possible I would love that.
Or does anyone know of a software that can allow you to access a circle wheel dock thing and have custom shortcuts on them depending on the application open.
mods please move to Windows 10 thread please

I also would love this

It's not possible. The Surface line used Wacom technology through the SP2, then switched to N-Trig starting with the Surface 3.

htc cube...scroll wheel control?

hi,
is it possible to map the ptt button to bring up the cube and use the wheel to rotate it? I'm using dutty's new rom and I'm impressed with the speed of the cube...but I find the touch screen control useless for any sort of fast navigation...the scroll wheel would be a perfect alternative...espicially for 1 handed use.
Thanks
How would you like to control the cube with the scrollwheel? It just can turn up and down and not right or left.
Surely you can assign the cube to a button. Just use the command in the touch settings (i don't have a cube so you have to look for it) and create a link out of this in the windows\start menu\programs-folder. Perhaps you might call this one "Start Cube". Then go to Start>Settings>Personal>Buttons and assign this link to the button you like.
well would like to use the wheel to rotate the faces (ex: wheel up > cube rotates left ) and the ptt button to open up the cube and close it down...I can't find a way to assign buttons to the different commands of Tflocubectrl.exe (I assume that would be the way to do it) and wanted to know if anybody had a solution for this.
I like the fact that the cube offers quick acces to contacts and other functions in any program...I just hate to control it with strokes...it's just way too sluggish...I thought it would be a very nice feature if its not too difficult to implement.
That would be neat, unfortunately I don't think I've seen anyone else talk about it!
You can posibly do it with AE Button Plus. You will need a flash cube however, i.e. Slither2006 SCLPF 1-62.
I believe that with AE B+ you can assign the scroll wheel as a button. However you would need to individualy call for each ratation which means Okay = SCLPF.swf; Down Roll of wheel = left.swf, Up rotat of wheel = contacts.swf - something like that. So you see you will only have a three sided cube. Not sure of this 100%, it's been a while since I played wit AEB+ & the flash cube. I may have only gotten two sides running.
I see...thanks for the help I will try it out when I have time
were you able to assign scroll wheel to rotate the cube ?
I want that feature as well but I can't figure it out
Wow
This is probably one of the best ideas ive seen posted here in a while! The useless 2 handed way cubes are setup now make them only useful for showing off ur phone to friends. Using the scroll wheel and only 1 hand would actually make the phones cube useful for everyday tasks on the go. Maybe we could have to scroll wheel button pushed in to open cube and then have a chef here make a cube that only goes up or down instead of 4 different directions, i.e. up,down,left,right, thats really only for showing off puposes and not everyday life/business. This would make a cube much more effective and useful especially only needing 1 hand to do it instead of making a project of trying to get the damn cube to respond to ur finger swip across the screen that never works 1st try, haha. Hopefully Dutty or someone will take this serious and cook it into their next rom!
intersting how different ppl use things different ways. I only ever use the cube with one hand. I find it works way better using the thumb than using your other finger.

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.

Emulate mouse Touchpad using the Touch Sensitive area under screen - Possible?

Any developers or Moderator Developers have any idea of whether this is being developed?
Just thought it would be very useful for controlling the Mouse in RDP on Diamond and Touch Pro Devices!
It would basically function in the same way as a Laptop TrackPad!!
Any takers!
Off Topic!

Am still totally blown away by the Guy at MicroPC Talk that modded his Sony UX from a core 2 solo 1500 to a CORE2DUO!!!!!!!! (u7600)
Wish I had the balls to try something like that on mine!
You might as well use the touch screen? Right?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Could be usefull for clicking small links in Opera, go there with the mousecursor and click them
I think it would be usefull to be able to use it as a mouse pad.
Was also thinking maybe moving up or down on it on the left and right side could be able to emulate a hard button for the onscreen softbuttons, for using fullscreen apps.
YUP - This could work on the touch screen too - was just thinking that since the touch functionality is built into the buttons too you could manipulate a mouse pointer without obstructing the screen.
I was wondering about a scroll pad too!
Wish I coded in Visual Studio sometimes - do a teeny weeny bit of MySQL and PHP but wouldn't know where to start coding for windows mobile! LOL!
Still nice to know there are other thinking on a similar wavelength!

touchflo 3d blocks access to system tray

Hello. I am a bit unhappy Touch PRO user because I love touchflo interface but would like also to use system tray-controlled software like openvpn or vsUtil.
I already installed secondtoday (also replaced the "Phone" softkey with it) but there is no way to make REAL tray icons appear there, only fake launcher stuff with Homescreen PLusPlus. The way left to access tray-controlled apps is to quit tochflo today plugin thru loooong series of taps thru settings.
I-d love an alternative such as make real tray icons still appear in Secondtoday or a lightweight tray icons porting popup app. Any other ideas/clues how to get an easy access to tray icons from touchfo....
Thanks for reading
Looking forward to hear Your thoughts
I agree.
My office forces us to use the Good email system. That software uses its own version of the email client, calendar and contacts. I'd like to reassign the tray "buttons" to point to the Good programs rather than being stuck with quick links to now unused versions of email, calendar and contacts.

Hi,
did you find a solution to the problem in the meantime?
Without the trayicons i have to choose between a pretty finger-enabled gui or using my universities WLAN.
Kind regards,
samoht

i assume you are talking about enlargetitlebar which which gives you easier hits on the "system tray" notifications. you should be able to disable it in the registry. mess around in hklm\software\htc. there might be an enable dword you can set to 0. i dont have it installed on my rom and i kind of miss it so i may try to get it back on my next flash.
No, i refer to the system tray at the bottom of today screen as shown in this screenshot.
The manilla interface is drawn on top of it and theres no easy way to access it. I have to disable touchflo in the settings, then start openvpn and afterwars reactivate touchflo. This is annoying... too bad openvpn relies on this.
oh yeah. forgot all about that thing. havent seen it in years. try a tf3d to today switcher thing. ive seen ones that it changes the left home tab soft key to the words "today" which lets you have a second today screen and today items and i guess the system tray too along side tf3d. ill try to find it again.
edit: try this -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=480475
@The Jack of Clubs:
Thanks so much! This works for me, i can switch between classic today screen and manilla rather fast!

SBC mobile shell 3 how to get rid of professional layout

Please forgive me if this has been addressed elsewhere...
I'm using MS 3.0 on my kaiser and I have no use for the professional layout screen. When I slide my finger up or down on the screen, instead of switching to professional layout I would like it to go to the launcher. Does anyone ohave suggestions on how to do this?
Thanks.
Part solution
I have this setup on my phone right now. tried it on the titan and vogue. check it out

thanks for the quick reply, but i'm not sure if that will give me exactly what i'm looking for.
I guess I could have put it this way...
is there a way to change the sweeping gestures in SPB MS 3? I would like to change a vertical sweep on lifestlye so that it opens the launcher instead of the Pro screen.
