Uhm...i dont have the arrows at the bottom of my map to easily cycle through the multiple search results. Was it taken out? Do i need to enable it (can see options/layers/labs)?
I am missing this as well. As a slightly less useful alternative, you can swipe left or right on the "detail" screen after clicking into one of search results to rotate through the results.
I was just looking for this too. Did they take it out? It's not there anymore when you do a search. How else are you supposed to scroll thru results? Seems like a very stupid thing to remove.

Cool. Thanks for the tip. Sucks that they took our the arrows...would rather have had them remove the zoom buttons!

Is there a way for the scroll wheel to "scroll" within rows. For instance, I have SPB Mobile Shell and Phone Alarm installed. Both apps have multiple icons in a row. I can scroll to a row, but I can't scroll along a row.
Is there a fix for this?
Thanks in advance.
i'll take the silence as a no

You might be right but it's generally considered reasonable to give it at least one if not a couple of days before bumping a thread.
So ironically, here's a free one on me!

i noticed that when i click programs or settings and use the scroll wheel it scrolls through every item in those areas. it just won't do it on the today screen.
i'll be a guinea pig. does anyone know the registry keys that govern the scroll wheel?
I am also interested in figuring this Horizontal Today Screen Wheel Scrolling...
It's a Scroll WHEEL, not a Track Ball!

Isn't this why we have a D-Pad?
How can you expect a 1-dimensional control to work in 2 dimensions?
In Schap's ROM, the scroll wheel does scroll across the HTC Home.

Geez chill cushcalc. I don't think he wants the wheel to be able to scroll up/down and left/right at will. Instead I think he wants it to scroll through each item in each today plug-in, instead of just scrolling from one today plug-in to the next. I.E.- scrolling down goes from the 1st item in htc home for example, to the second, to the third, etc... and then from the last htc home item to the first item in the next today plug-in. I know, I know, there are tons of retards posting tons of uber-retarded questions on this forum, but diar is posing a valid question.

Here's a free bump. Would love to have this feature as well, cuz I'd really to have one-handed use on the PDA. Using the D-pad requires thumb gymnastics which may result in dropping the phone
Even better, if there'd be a way to switch the scroll mode from line-by-line to page-by-page in certain cases, i.e. while browsing a document, or a web page.
Hi !
I'm looking for a way to scroll with the thumbwheel (right now it's just as pressing up/down which does different things depending on the app). I know it could be done, since we have the finger scrolling which works as a REAL scroll, so if moving the thumb down would act the same as finger scrolling for 1cm, for example, than it would be a real scroll.
BTW: as i'm typing this, i'm starting to program an app to do it, so if i don't find a solution, i'l make one myself... muahahaha(evil laugh)... of course i'll share it... free.
Please tell me if you know a solution, so i don't waste my nights programming (again).
Thanks,
RPG
i haven't been able to find a solution and I looked high to low. I think the wheel should be more like a page down than arrow down.
I have never understood why you can't get it to go vertically. It does it on the program and settings but not on the today screen.
I think you are onto something here.
I saw one of the button mapping programs that allowed you to assign screen actions to buttons, but I am not sure how well it would work. If it did, I would imagine it could be pretty quirky and not the most efficient way to do in things, since you be basically reinterpreting another event. Sounds like it might be useful, but I would suggest maybe providing the ability to to toggle between the normal behavior and the true scrolling by double clicking the jog wheel button.
I just saw Google's fastflip announcement and gave it a try. On my Hero, the webpage does not look right. That is, I don't get the icons at the bottom (left arrow, right arrow, + sign) as you can see in the screen shots at http://fastflip.googlelabs.com/mobile
Can someone check and see if their Hero does the same thing?
I think Google is now so big that the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing. Look at our crummy Maps support, no Google Earth, and now no Flip.
I didnt see the icons at the bottom either, but it worked using gestures (swipe left or right to 'flip' )
i can't imagine you would see the icons at the bottom as those are put there by the iphone browser.....you don't have one of those silly things do you???
and as for the rest, seems fine to me.
Nahh, if you look at the screen shots those buttons at the bottom are part of fastflip. Not the ones you get after pressing the menu button. On my screen, they are not there. The space is blank white. No big deal, just want to know if others are seeing the same thing.
Hi,
only icons I can see are the same as in this picture iPhone icons picture so I think they are iPhone specific
Sorry clobber but that blue bar is, as has already been said, Iphone browser only.
They are the back, forward, new window, bookmarks and switch window buttons from the iphone browser. you will not see them on an android phone.
shudder...i need to go wash my mouth out after mentioning that thing....!

Haha. Fair call. I didn't even notice there were suppose to be buttons. I just instinctively swiped to change pages since that is the paradigm used through out the phone.
I hate buttons on screens for navigation. Totally pointless. It is a pity that Google couldn't display the whole article straight away. Although you get the gist of that article after the first few paragraphs anyway and it's not hard to browse to the original article.
I like it...but don't know how it fits with Reader which I get my new via RSS. I guess Flip filters it down to only the good/popular stuff.
Maybe I'm doing it wrong, but I have a heck of a time swiping from the top corner to reduce an app into pen window. Try it in chrome and see what you get.
I either end up pulling the notification shade or swiping tabs. After 10 tries I might get the window. what am missing?
If your talking about pop up window I was having the same problem, here's what you do.. Swipe the corner of either the right or left side down but go ABOVE the screen a little start from the bezel where there's no screen and you should get it every time.. Hope this helps
Yeah that's it. Sorry, they used to call it pen window on note 3.
I'm still struggling with it.
Lol im opposite of you. They get swype too easily!....though I wonder if screen sensitivity increase have anything to do with it
It also doesn't work on everything.. No homescreen, you have to be on the browser or other applications for it to work..
Pen window was a different thing all. Together where you would draw a little box with the pen and a few applications would come up, this you don't need to use the pen for it to work, so if you're using the pen it might make it harder try what I said using your finger and see if it helps..
I'm not using the pen at all. I just tried it a bunch of times and I get better results (not 100% but much better) if I swipe quicker and from the corner of the PHONE, not the corner of the screen. Just about what Melissa recommended. But for me speed seems to factor in too.
Good I'm glad it's working better for ya! ?
Try near very corner, where it says PM/AM ...starting from the status bar...pull down past the bar, then i towards the center. You'll notice that if you go straight down the shade won't move.
That's usually where I reach to pull the shade down and kept wondering why it wouldn't come down the first time I try it.
are there any videos or picture tutorials of this? I'm really having problems. Granted this is my first Note device, but I haven't ever gotten it to work even one time.

It really is as easy as it sounds. Put your index finger over the front facing camera in the upper right corner of the phone then slide your finger diagonally across the screen towards the bottom left. Works for me every time as long as the app support it. Not all apps work so make sure you are using a supported multi-window app.

Yeah, there are 'dead' zones on both ends of the status bar. After you pull down from the dead zone, just swipe towards the center. You can actually pull down about 1/2 inch and it will still work.
I'm very embarrassed to report back, but I had never turned on "Multi-Window." Perhaps my noobiness will help someone else!
Thanks to all those who offered help!
can anybody help me figure out how to turn off the zoom when clicking on a link, its extremely annoying especially when clicking in the text field it hides my text that I try to type... Ive searched everywhere but cant find anything... :-/
Not sure I understand problem.
What browser do you use? In Chrome it is double tap to zoom. I can't reproduce your problem on mine. I know there is an accessibility setting that triple tap to magnify is controlled by, when in use frames the window in a yellow box. Sorry could not help more.

When your screen window is small, it checks to see if you were clicking on the right link. You can avoid this by stretching out the window with two fingers, it creates a greater distance between tight links.

Is it the whole page zooming or is it like a smaller window that zooms in too? If that window is coming up then there are two links, text fields etc nearby to each other and the device can't tel which one you are trying to get to. Just touch the one you want in that zoomed window then.
