Need help with keyquick

[cktlcmd]

I read in some forum that keyquick can be configured to launch hotsync by just pressing a button without using the stylus to tap. I tried following the conversation on that thread, but ended up getting lost. Can anyone give me a detailed step by step instruction on how and what button to press. Thanks in advance.

I installed it just now, but I seem to be as confused as you are. I don't usually have a problem mucking around with apps and figuring them out, but it must just be late...I couldn't get it configured properly.
I'll keep trying.

The programmer is japanese, so dun blame him.

1.open keyquick
2.press (add)
3.type a key. check your keyboard help to see which combos aren't used.
4. check "Priority is Ctrl out of the field"
5. highlight [Ctrl]
6. hit dropdown list beside "assign" and select "launch"
A drop down list and a normal scroll bar list should show up.
7. make sure the new drop down list says "Appl"
8. Select Hotsync in the new boxed scroll bar list.
9. hit OK.

Now, go back to your launcher and hit the designated key (no need to press Ctrl). Hotsync should launch.

To assign another button to do a screen tap at the center of the screen (i.e. the hotsync icon in hotsync):
in step 6: select "screen tap"
7: Make sure in "Start pos", "TopLeft" is selected.
8: Set Xpos to 80, and Ypos to 80.
9. hit OK.

Thanks very much conflagrare!!! WOW! All I need now is just press 1 and no need to tap anymore and hotsync will launch by itself.

So basically, I can use the coordinates, X and Y, to assign a screen tap in any program I want. So if I want to tap in the right lower part of a screen which is 480x320 due to code diver, all I have to type in the coordinates are: X= -20 and Y=20, assuming that the zero is located at the right lower part of the screen.

Where is the zero or the intersection of the two coordinates occur?

Thanks again!!!

[cktlcmd]

I am assuming the intersection of the two coordinates occur at the left lower part of the screen since you gave me Xpos=80 and Ypos=80, which was the center of a 160x160 screen.

You made my night of surfing, worth while conflagrare. Thanks again.

0 is either top left or bottom left..this is offered when you enter coordinates


edited : top right -> bottom left :)

[cktlcmd]

If 0 was top left, then wouldn't the coordinates be: Xpos=80 and Yneg=80?

[c0mm0n]

i found out the coordinates to be a bit "strange" ; to find the exact postion of the tap i wanna do, i did a screenshot than opened it on the pc and used my image viewer coordinates to estimate the position but on the clie the tapping wouldn't happen on the desired position ;

I don't really know what's happening, maybe Keyquick doesn't consider the 480*320 screen but sees it as a 320²...

[cktlcmd]

I guess we will have to experiment on that some more. I'll post here if I do find where the intersection of the coordinates are. Because from what conflagrare gave me from the above instructions, I believe he was assuming that the intersection was at the left lower part of the screen, since he gave me two positive values. Thanks for the reply c0mm0n.

[cktlcmd]

You are right c0mm0n, the intersection of the coordinates X and Y were at the TOP LEFT. I tried applying bottom left so at least it would simulate the actual graphing plot of X and Y, but I end up messing things up. So I just used TOP LEFT, and plugged in what conflagrare told me to do.

Here is what I found out:

Since TOP LEFT is the intersection of X and Y, it is safe to conclude it is where point zero (0) is.

The dimension of the screen we are working on the UX by using keyquick is 240 by 160.

Starting from the TOP LEFT going to the BOTTOM LEFT is from 0 to 160 which is our Y axis.

Starting from the TOP LEFT going to the TOP RIGHT is from 0 to 240 which is our X axis.

I hope everyone will find this useful. Thanks for the help everyone.
