Apt 1.3b

Pent 04 Jun 2008 09:24

[locked, 1.3b1 is out]

Just FYI, I changed the Brgt:SetD action to Brgt:Copy in the next version, hope no one is inconvenienced.

Only other change so far is the FExit trigger accepts both form name and ID as argument.

I did both of those because I wanted to be able to set the *Default* brightness to the current system brightness after exiting the system brightness setting popup.

p.s. now I'm going back to hibernate-for-the-summer mode (you do that by burying into the sand at the beach :-))

Pent,

Nice to hear fm you again. What's the matter, can't ply yourself away fm this..? ;-)

Just as a future reference, I find that when editing on my TX's main Apt scrn, I don't always get a cursor (on bottom 4 lines, maybe just these). It is usually when I am fiddling around w/other stuff, like ww1900's variable/tags/macro creation for co-existing brightness & scrolling capabilities on 5way, but I do get input, but no cursor at times; maybe related to switching btwn toggling fonts, or DIA up/down… will have to see…

Make sure you use the right amount of sunblock… & watch out for sandcrabs!

Hi Pent,

Is it possible to add more commands in the coms section of apt? At the moment there are only commands to control IR. the same for bluetooth would be nice (I have seen the makro in the wiki. I have bluetooth toggle. I have seen several other apps which can use this program, which means you mustn't go to the settings screen) or even for the network connection?
And also is it possible the change the system sounds with triggers. At the moment I only see the settings in the prefs screen. It would be nice, if you can change the settings eg. with a stroke on the screen.

Stefan,

both your items are on the todo list (see the 'Project' link in the left bar of the site). Bluetooth has third party solutions, though I agree
the direct control would be nicer.

Sounds good.

And more about brightness: I hope you're not burying yourself in the sand just so you can read your screen on what I hope is a dazzlingly sunny stretch of seashore :)

I would like to do more with time triggers, but these are a bit limited now. Any plans to expand the functionality?
Ability to schedule different days of the week.
Execute MacroPlay macros.
Ability to wake up palm correctly when Macro executes.

You should be able to wake up palm with a simulated hard power key as first step of macro in next release.

Mixed results today.

Fixed the star-menu-delete crash on Blazer etc but don't know how.

Fixed the popup from holding a hard key crash on Blazer the first time, but don't know how, and the second time you press-and-hold without leaving Blazer and going back in, same old crash :-)

Hi,

can I make an other request ;) I already mentioned sound feedback. But also feedback over the vibrator would be cool. Then you get a silence feedback that something was performed. I think most usefull for stroke or tap actions on the screen, I they need some time. So you know the actions will be performed and you don't have to stroke/tap again, or have to wait to see that something is happen.

I put the sound in already. You can specify frequency and duration, and string together several in a macro if you're feeling composery. Will add vibrate to todo, since I would have to research it.

Don, tnx for translation… btw, when Pent says he'll be sure that it is stable, you can take it to the bank.

He has shown himself to be very caring & responsible to users & deserves tons more sales… so does the app itself….
esp. now that Apt is now catering more to the Treo & it's community…. I know I need more button triggers w/all the apps using up the regular ones….
