Using the volume slider to scroll?

[uczmeg]

Hi,

I was messing with the beta of the mozilla web browser the other day (it is on the ftp site, but I wouldn't bother with it yet!) and I noticed that it let you use the volume slider to scroll the page like a scroll wheel.

Sadly in the normal apps like IE and email it just changes the volume.

Does anyone know if there is any way to make the slider act as a scroll wheel in these apps? It is a standard thing on many pocket pcs and would be wonderful if you could use it whilst reading emails.

Cheers
Marc

Yeah that would be really useful for email and webbrowsing (eg. Avantgo). Anybody know how? Might be a registry hack.

Yes there is a volume slider re-mapper. I use it on my Blue Angel. Got it off a thread on one of the forums here. Keep searching :)

Of course it's possible.
Here (http://www.gpspassion.com/forumsen/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=20729) is a page where I explain how to do it but I'm sorry it's in french :?

If needed I will translate it... :?:

It was without counting on the ingeniousness of a Russian developer Mamaich which developed small a software to associate this button any software and in particular 2 small softwares making it possible to emulate a serrated roller of run!

It is now possible to use the slider as serrated roller to ravel inside the applications.

:lol: I love google language tools!

Hey that right, the translation isn't so bad :wink:

2 points : you've got to copy
- 'unmap_volume.exe' and 'AddHotkeys.exe' in the repertory /Windows/Start
- 'SimUp.exe' and 'SimDown.exe' in the repertory /Windows/Starting Menu/Programs

Thanks again to Mamaich :D

Works great! Thanks!!! :D

I just noticed that starting from 1.11 ROM it allows to remap up-down volume buttons for any purpose:) how great!

P.S. e.g. it works in Betaplayer, HaaliReader, Resco AudioRecorder

PHM Task Manager doesn't seem to kill the processes in order to uninstall AddHotkeys.exe....any suggestions?

[mitchello]

You have to use activesync "explore" feature to change the extension to something else (eg. addhotkeys.ex1). Then, soft reset, and it will say that it can't be run. Then delete it!
