Hi
Is there any software that will zoom in on a text area? For example in a text field if I want to move from the 7 character to the 3rd character to correct a mistake it's a guessing game where you click unless you use the stylus. A friend showed me his IPhone and his will put a magnifying glass over the text area so you can move your finger left and the cursor will follow.
Searched on Google but could not find anything like what my friend had.
Thanks
ps. Could someone please change the title from [REG] to [REQ]. Thanks

i don't see any significant magnification on the i-photo you posted
i agree that it's easier if you can move the cursor by moving your finger left or right in the magnifying glass but believe me it's as easy as using the arrow keys in htc keyboard to move the cursor!No need to tap on the screen, just use the arrows to find the right spot
The problem is I don't use the HTC keyboard. I use Resco with the iskin theme and are no cursor keys with that. I agree that the HTC keyboard with it's up down left right keys is the best way to navigate a text box but for people that don't use that keyboard it makes things more difficult.
has anything new popped up with this request. I know the Droid X and Droid 2 have this feature as well. Is there anyway to port this now that more and more android devices are getting this? Is it even possible to port something like this to the Droid 1?
the xperias used to have this... but they removed it with Android 8

Inspired by the zoombar projects (link below), I thought that it could be possible to convert the hard button area of the touch HD to a more useful thing: a touch pad.
I think we have enough room for left-right and also up-down movement. Also a double click could be considered as pressing the Enter button.
I believe we have skilled enough developers who can make this dream a reality (like XaKing and namuk).

Although im no developer, i'd love to see this!
Although, would it only enable in certain applications? Because i want to answer a call when one comes in and not be zooming! lol
Also, if i get a call in camera mode, will it detect this and revert the buttons?
It all comes down to the limits of our imagination. Maybe we could have a blacklist/whitelist approach, where we could define the applications for which this touch pad should be enabled. This could be in some conf file or registry.
But we need the real thing first, these nice little touches could come later.

Tried getting aroma to work no luck. Going to keep trying.
Okay guys I am in desperate need of some help here. Myself,hyperrunner, and smirkis have been trying to get Aroma to work on the Kindle fire and have had no success yet with getting the touch screen to calibrate correctly.
Running the calibtool and touching the dots correctly the numbers that return are way off and are extremely huge numbers, and after touching the 5th(center) dot, you should see a large dot where you touch and that does not happen. But if you go through the set up as though the tablet would be portrait, you get some descent calibrate numbers back, and after the 5th dot, the screen does show touches now, just not in the correct position.

So running normaly throught set up it has you touch points A,B,C,D. But the result from that is usless. But if you touch it as C,A,D,B I get some descent numbers which are
calibrate("1.9490", "74", "6.4672", "8")
But now my touches are actully 90 degrees off. On the caveman drawn x y chart. If I move my finger up and down they y axis, the dot will actually move along the x axis, and visa versa. Was wondering if there is a way to take the calibrate numbers from above and convert them to rotate my touches 90 degrees.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.
Sorry I just copied and pasted this from the Aroma Installer thread, maybe two places is better than one, maybe!! Hopefully!!
What package are you using/where can I download aroma installer. so I can see if I could do anything to help.

Tap on the magnifying glass then a box appears at the top of the screen which will allow you to search for the chosen contact.

You can also use the phone dialer.
Start spelling the name on the dialer keypad. My most recent call match seems to come up first, touch picture to dial that number. The # of matches are shown on left side, tap that to open the list of all matching contacts. Matches are narrowed by adding more letters. Use enough letters to narrow to a reasonable number.

Either i'm going crazy, or Screen off memo changed between the pre-battery-recall firmware and post-battery-recall.
I could *swear* the line thickness was smaller before the update.
Also, what's with the weird minus-shaped cursor when you hover?
When you start writing, it turns into a normal circle shaped cursor, but as soon as you move the pen away and bring it back to the screen, it's a little dash again, until you actually touch the screen and start writing.
I'm fairly certain it's a bug, i'm just not sure if it's just my device or if it's widespread.
I'm on the original Note 7 PH9 frimware everything is as described. Except this "line thickness" I'm not sure what you're referring to?
I can't say much about line thickness, but it does seem very responsive to pressure - maybe try using the harder grey s-pen tip instead of the stock one, which is softer?
The line is there to show you where you're lined up.
Weird, i'd swear i didn't see that line before.
So if it's there to show where you're lined up, why does it turn into a normal cursor once you touch the screen - and stays that way for as long as you keep the pen in proximity to the screen?
Re: line thickness - good point, maybe they changed the pressure/thickness responsiveness slightly, or this pen has a slightly different feel. I'll try the harder tip.
Just to be clear re: cursor, this is what i was talking about:

Sorry for the potato shots.
Looks the same as mine, US Verizon flameout-proof edition.
Hi. I've been using the tablet for about 9 months, and bought it with the smart pen when I bought it. I've found it quite useful for note taking. However, something that annoys me is that the buttons' function can't be changed in the settings, and only do soemthing different in the Xiaomi Notes app. Is there any third party app/rom/way to change the buttons function?
Key Mapper, you can find it on Google Play Store.

How did you get to change the buttons? I've tried it, but couldn't do it

Record a trigger, press one of the buttons and set a new action afterwards.

Found it. thought the countdown was to get ready, not to make the input. It was just me being stupid hahaha
Hello, there are times when I am writing (with the xiaomi smart pen) and I go to the bottom line (on the left side of the screen - approximately in the space of about 3 to 4 cm on the left side), it does not work. It is expected to touch somewhere on the screen more in the middle of the screen, so that it recognizes the writing, and I can go back to writing at the beginning of the line. How can I solve?
