Copy And Paste On Touch Pro 2

[Austin808]

Your correct that was a typo. I did it by mapping 38 up.

Rhodium Keyboard Controller has got to be my next big weekend project. I've spent a lot of time catching up with some of you folks, and will never catch others of you, but the challenge is soooooo fun. One thing I miss LEAST about the Mogul is how little memory there was to play with TSR's. I've got a ton of them in this phone, and still have several times the available memory. And I haven't even done the Opera or whatever memory savers.

One thing I have to say about all these little cabs, is that they really are written TIGHT, like we used to write DOS programs in the early 80's when we had little memory. These phones are like "the old days". LOVE IT!!!!

Would be nice if someone could mod the full qwerty to have a ctrl key.

Solution #1

First Download: Rhodium Keyboard Controller




You have to do everything you see in this picture.
After installing Rhodium Keyboard Controller you go to all settings,
then choose keyboard config. Press menu on the bottom right then click add key.
Make sure to check the box that says Combine with FN key (Function key), it will also say Press
and release the key you want to assign action for. Slide out your keyboard then press "C"

When the key setup screen pops up do what you see in the picture.
Rule leave as is.
Key mode: Single/double click, long press
Event: Click
Action: Emulate key press
Key: 67 C Key
"MAKE SURE TO CHECK THE CTRL BOX"
Send to: OS
Hit ok, then press "Update config" on the bottom left.
Now with your physical keyboard out press the FN key then press "C" this will copy whatever you hightlight.

Repeat the same process for
(X which is 88 to cut)
and (V which is 86 to paste)

Solution #2

EVEN BETTER way to do it with the Keyboard controller/config:
You don't "Need" to map a CTRL key, because you can emulate pressing a key WHILE pressing another key. In other words:
Take your C key, map "default function" to single click, but map "emulate keypress" for LONG press, and then for the key to emulate check CTRL and "C". That way when press and hold C it will copy automatically! Repeat for X and V etc. Also I made a tab key via FN->SYM, and pressing FN->LEFT or RIGHT will skip a word.

If you don't understand any of this or just want to see it, here's my Keyboard Controller XML config file: (coulldn't attach an XML file here so I'm hosting it off my site)
http://protonus.ws/files/ppc/KeyboardConfig.xml
Just load this up and you can see all I've done, I've mapped a lot. I have some mapping for the AEButtons Task Manager and Mem Viewer as they're my favorite so install AEButtons to take advantage of that (you don't have to have it in startup though).

Still looking for a mod to add ctrl to the Full QWERTY onscreen keyboard.

Am trying to follow the second method. But ever time i remap a key it only does the function. Like for example if i remap "X" for long press. It will cut any text that is highlighted but when i am typing and i need an x, x won't get typed. Possible you can post a screenshot of how you are doing it. Also i have installed SdkCerts and RhodiumKeyboard. Are you doing it without those programs?

You need to remap that "X" key twice. First, select "click" from "event", map it to "x", then select "long press" and map it to "control" + "x".

I just found that it do albeit differently with an extra step. In Explorer for example, you can tap and copy/cut fine but in order to paste you have to hit the menu softkey to the bottom left, go to edit and hit paste. I just figured this out since I failed to accept that they would totally take away that functionality. Then again, you might have already known this...lol

Never mind I figured it out. ;]

Is there a way to set up a CTRL + SELECT ALL? Maybe a CTRL + UNDO?

CTRL-Select All, yes. And I think you should be able to remap a CTRL=UNDO as. Play around with it.

[txyaloo]

CTRL + A is Select All. I have that mapped and it works 99% of the time.

CTRL + Z should be Undo. I don't have that mapped and can't tell you if it works.
