Does anyone know how I can make the jog wheel in internet explorer zoom in and out? That would be really useful. At the moment i'm clicking menu> zoom in all the time and its a pain!
Thanks
Any ideas guys? Really desperate on this one, guessing a registry entry would do it?
As far as I know the zoom wheel thing only works within the Opera browser and not within Explorer.
Why not just use Opera to surf the web?
Hi Roy, I might download Opera again but I just prefer Internet Explorer

I am using Wisbar Advance Desktop and I am making my own weather page. What I want to do is put a button at bottom of page that says "RADAR" and then when you click on the button I want it to automatically launch my browser and go to a website that I found where they have animated weather radars right on there homepage. I know how to make the buttons and all that stuff and how to link them up. I just don't know how to make a bookmark that will automatically launch when clicked on.
Also, is there a way to define which browser it uses. I have Opera 9.5 and Skyfire. In opera I have the box checked where it says use as default browser, so will it use Opera? I definitely don't want it to use dirty old PIE.
Thanks for any help you can give. I would really appreciate it.
HOnestly the best place to put this question would be in the Software section....also have you checked the Wisbar website.
I know when I used Wisbar before the forum section of their website was quite informative for these type of questions.
I encountered a problem with my HTC Tilt today. I was playing around deciding if I like it more with or without touchflo running, and later in the day I installed that Task Manager 3.1 program (which seems very handy BTW) and that is when I noticed that when I am in the "programs" or "settings" windows, the way to scroll by dragging the screen has changed. Before, I would just click anywhere and drag with the stylus and it would scroll. Now, I have to like tap and drag it, and it'll continue scrolling non-stop until I tap on the screen again. The same thing happens in internet explorer. Other programs such as Opera browser is unaffected.
The interesting thing is that drag-scrolling with my finger has improved dramatically, and works great, but not with the stylus.
Can anyone help me get it back to the way it was before?
I'm a bit noobie to these gadgets, but I'll catch on.
edit: the scrolling with the stylus works fine if you drag the scroll bar.
This phone is awesome, but the one complaint I do have is that the phone speaker volume isn't very loud... it needs more ooomph.

i'm not certain if the installation of Task Manager 3.1 would have had adverse affects on the way that drag scrolling works...
for starters, you should know that some applications like opera mobile 8.65 and opera mobile 9.5 betas as well as resco explorer and lots more applications implement THEIR OWN drag scrolling logic.
next, you should know that HTC's touchflo, from the day it was introduced (with the HTC Touch) all the way up to the latest incarnations of TF2D (manila2d) and TF3D, is capable of "hooking" in to the Windows Mobile interface elements (scroll areas, etc) to provide drag scrolling behavior. however, it is nowhere near as good as the custom drag scrolling logic implemented in the applications mentioned in the previous paragraph.
finally, you should know that if you have TF2D (manila2d), there are TWO ways to get to your Programs window. Start->Programs will launch the Windows Mobile native program browser (where the cumbersome "hooked" touchflo behavior works) while launching the Programs listing by pressing the "All Programs" softkey from the Programs Tab will launch a custom program browser that looks and feels EXACTLY like the native Windows Mobile program browser. In the latter case, you will notice much much better drag scrolling.
i think the HTC uses the same approach as mentioned above for the Settings window.
make sure you are not getting confused by the above mentioned differences in your debugging and assessments.
another thing to check would be whether or not you altered the touchflo sensitivity parameters (try KaiserTweak to mess with those settings).
EDIT: Found answer.
HKLM\Software\Opera\GSensor\IdleTime
change to a very high number
On Opera, when you put your Diamond horizontally, Opera switches to horizontally viewing. Is there anyway to disable this? I want to keep vertical viewing no matter what position the phone is in.
This seems to occur only in Opera. No other software program has similar issue.
nice thanks
Nice one for this - been doing my head in!
I made a cab for it in this thread...

Anybody know if there is a cab or reg tweak I can apply to disable zooming in messaging when I hit the scroll wheel? I keep doing it by accident and it's really getting on my nerves.
Thanks!
Edit: Solved, see post #12 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4594396&postcount=12
I have this problem as well...really sucks.
Someone help? lol
haha, yah same here.
it gets annoying after a while...
I too would like a cab for that.
yeah i'm game for a solution...
maybe a quick reg hack or something. sometimes it goes haywire and i can't fix it unless i soft-reset.
omg this is driving me crazy!
is there a known fix for this f** functionality??
in for 1 too
i honestly don't see how this hasn't been addressed before?
I'm not sure if there is a better solution yet, but for now I have simply disabled SmartTouch entirely.
Grab a copy of FdcSoft TaskMgr, go to the Services tab and find the SmartTouch(SMT0) entry. Tap and hold, select Stop, then Set Manual, then Disable.
I don't use the scroll or zoom functionality for anything at all so this works for me. I found this info here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=462662
i dont think you would want to kill smarttouch all together. maybe just find and delete the registry entry for text messages. i think it is hklm\sofware\htc\smarttouch\outlook email. i dunno if thats really it but who knows.

No, from what I can tell, it doesn't. I'm not going to test though because I finally did find a good solution.
After digging around the registry for a couple hours to no avail, I decided to start playing with programs that use SmartTouch. Lucky me I found one that disables zooming in SMS, is customizable, and doesn't mess up any other zooming functionality (ie: Opera). Yay!
My thanks to demosten for creating SensorScroll which can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=466377
Just install and soft reset. I had to play around with turning the service on/off (can be done from the start menu shortcut) and testing the zoom in SMS until I had the right size and zoom was disabled.
Hope this works for you!
Hi,
is there a way to get the browser to scroll easier vertical than horizontal? My old HTC desire did that. So you weren't strolling to the left and right all the time when you just want to go down to read an article.
I dont think its possible in the stock browser, in Opera ther is an option to enable/disable Pan Scrolling, but for me at least doesn't seem any difference if its on or not.

Where is the setting to enable/disable pan browsing in opera? I can't seem to find it..I assume is opera mobile right?
Thanks.
Edit: plse disregard..I think I found it, I simply enable single colum view. Now its perfect. Even in desktop mode I only have to scrool vertical. Funny I did not realise about this before.
