Post your Keyboard Config
 
1 Attachment(s)
I have discovered that one of my favorite apps for the Touch Pro 2 is the Rhodium Keyboard Control app. I have seen people use it to create all kinds of shortcuts with they keyboard. You can easily store your settings in an XML file so I thought it would be a good idea to create a thread to easily share those ideas.

Legend:
SP = Single Press
DP = Double Press
LP = Long Press

My XML files does the following:

-Fn + C/V/X/A = Ctrl + C/V/X/A
-Envelope is nothing on SP, default on DP, and rotate 270 on LP
-Fn + envelope = Tab
-Fn + . = close program
-SMS is default on SP, Beejive on LP
-Back key is default on SP, BT toggle on LP

EDIT: XDA Thread with up to date Rhodium Keyboard Controller per CovKid66's suggestion

At Briggs request: Briggs Ultimate Keyboard Config

My Config file is posted below.

-Fn + C/V/X/A = Ctrl + C/V/X/A

-Fn + Left/Right = Ctrl + Left/Right (Move backward/forward one word)

Fn + S = Send text to active window
* Text = My eSignature for work emails only e.g. name, title, company, contact info)

-BACK (LP) = Enter

-HOME (LP) = WiFi Toggle

-VOL DOWN = Down
* Rule 2 = F7 - VOL DOWN in phone app only
* Both are Direct Key Mapping / 100ms Repeats

-VOL UP = Up
* Rule 2 = F6 - VOL UP, DONE in phone app only
* Both are Direct Key Mapping / 100ms Repeats

-Fn + SMS = Tab

For Worms World Party I also did this:
Left - Rules 2 = Up
Right - Rule 2 = Down
Up - Rule 2 = Left
Down - Rule 2 = Right
Notes:
Each of these keys are also assigned a direct key mapping to their original actions with 100ms repeats so that they function normally everywhere else but in rule 2

Each of the mappings assigned to rule 2 also have 100ms repeats

To map the rule 2 for each key, I took the stylus out when prompted and switched to WWP which I had already launched before hand, and then replaced the stylus to register the app for rule 2

Now I can use left/right to move my worm (makes more sense to me than the default up/down keys!), and up/down to raise / lower the targeting on the weapon being used

Enjoy!

I know few people on this forum have GSM phones, but just in case you do, be sure to download the GSM version of Keyboard Config for your phone. It's located at XDA-Developers.

How did you accomplish the bold part and what do you mean by action screen? Can you post your xml? I'd love to take a look at it.

Can you post your xml file?

All you have to do is go to menu -> config -> save config to save the xml. Then just xfer to computer, zip it up, and upload.

I don't think the Action Screen is available on all devices. If you have it look for \windows\htcactionscreen.exe. If it's there you can map a key to launch that app. If it isn't there, I think you're out of luck!
