Would you like to use CTRL/ALT on your Universal? :D

[tom_hiro255]

Hello all,

I would like to introduce a software which using CTRL/ALT key on your Universal.

Here is a link to download.
http://1942.rocketspace.net/PQz/PQz20051119_0015.zip

Espcially, It has been designed for Japanese.(IME Atok)
(I'm not sure it works or not in other languages.)

Thanks.

[craigiecraigie4]

OK, I'm not brave enough... :oops:

<JarJar Brick Warning>
Anyone else willing to run an executable from an unverifiable source :?:
</JasJar Brick Warning>

Tom's other 2 posts are innocuous enough, and started over a month ago, so it doesn't look like someone who registered just to post a trojan.

Tom, can you tell us if you've tried this, how it works, and where we can find a URL that lends it some cred?

Here's what I could find that might help (Jap translated page). Looks like a competition to write such a proggie:
http://216.239.39.104/translate_c?hl=en&u=http://d.hatena.ne.jp/Gzh/20051117%231132162553&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dpqz%2Bctrl%2Balt%2Bpocket%26num%3D50% 26hl%3Den%26hs%3Dvfu%26lr%3D%26client%3Dopera%26rl s%3Den%26sa%3DG

[craigiecraigie4]

Woohoo! I found a few more Jap/Chinese pages, and developed a level of comfort that this was a competition, and that the app exists and does what Tom suggests. It's AWESOME! :D U get a little icon on the title bar (would like to get rid of this some time), and it changes to show ctrl and alt mode. You can set different keyboard keys to be ctrl and alt, and when u press them u can now move backwards and forwards 1-word at a time and all the other things u would expect.

Nice going Tom - sorry to have been so circumspect. We would love for you to tell us more about what those darned clever Japanese dudes are doing for the Universal.

PS: For n00bies, put this exe file in your \windows\startup folder. Right-click icon for settings. Set ctrl to be your WIN key, and Alt to be your SYM key and you're a-for-away! Uuh, on second thoughts, I've no idea what the alt key does for me, so until I figure that out I'll keep my sym key as is
PPS: Sorry VJ - you were beaten to it! No worries tho, you can focus on some of the other stuff we're all dying to see...

[craigiecraigie4]

Woohoo! Ctrl-Q,Del,A,C,X,V I expected - but Ctrl-Z is just a big fat bonus!

[heidy]

Most excellent! Any chance for an "ESC" key? :D

[vijay555]

Wow, that's nice!

[tom_hiro255]

Hi all,
and thank you for your interest.

Last few weeks, I've been developing this app and not finished yet.
I will write a user's guide as soon as possible.

PS.heidy
I think it not hard to implement 'ESC'.

cheers

what do the 2 IME list do?
thank you

[tom_hiro255]

Hi francorg,

>In the setup page:
>what do the 2 IME list do?

You might be using single byte charactor like English if you don't use IME.
We japanese have to convert from single byte charactor(alphabet) to Japanese. (Chinese/Koria are same)

Alphabet <----(IME OFF/ON)---->Japanese
The settings are used for Japanese Input.

If you don't use IME. You can choose IME [none][N O].
that the best way to you.

thank you.

[dalelane]

brilliant - thanks! :D

is tough choosing which key to lose though for Ctrl.... think i'll start with CAP LOCK - i've kinda got used to using Fn, Windows, Sym etc.

but finally - i can use command-line stuff like putty properly!

[dalelane]

...i'll start with CAP LOCK...

PS - i've never noticed that about my Exec keyboard before, but shouldn't it really be CAPS LOCK?

[tom_hiro255]

I wrote a guide to use PQz.

[Jogi]

Great software! Thank you for that.

To make it perfect in my eyes, it would be great, if it would work as well, as long as you keep the key pressed. I would need it to jump word by word keeping the ctrl-key pressed and moving by hitting the arrow-keys. Would that be possible?

Jogi

I agree - this is how I would want it to work.

I haven't tried this software yet but I want to. Can anybody answer this question please? The user guide didn't seem to give me the answer:

Can I program the software to give me <FN> + <SHIFT> = <CTRL> ?
I.e. can I hold down FN and SHIFT to get the Ctrl function? Is that a combination of keys that's supported in the dropdown selectors? I don't want to lose an existing key to get the Ctrl function if I can avoid it. :)

And yes, I want everything! :P

[rilot]

Superb. Makes my Exec a whole lot more useful.

[Mikew]

Has anyone figured out how to copy some text as any highlighted text gets wiped out when you enter 'C'

Mike

[rilot]

ctrl+c it just works. Doesn't clear the text at all.

[dalelane]

is there a way to use the button mapped to Ctrl solely for Ctrl?

I use "CAP LOCK" as Ctrl, and although it works fine as Ctrl, when I start typing again, my writing is all in caps :-(

[Mikew]

What am I doing wrong when copying text

highlight text

Press 'SYM' key & text disappears before I can press 'C'

(SYM mapped at Control key)

This won't solve your particular problem, but I offer this as an alternative to the Copy-Paste process without using the stylus:

- Select your text with <Shift> and cursor keys
- Press <FN> + <Space> and you should get a pop-up context menu containing the Copy/Cut options
- Use the up/down cursor arrows to choose the option and then <Enter>
- Move to other text location and repeat process to Paste

Ctrl will only be useful for me in navigating the text to be selected, by jumping a word at a time. Everything else I can already achieve with the keyboard. :) It's not as quick as Ctrl + c/v/x but it works flawlessly.

[vijay555]

I've got a bit of a way around this, to permit relatively normal copy and paste with c v x z etc. How does it work now?

I'll release it tonight if you want.

Hi

So, I'm trying to fix some problem on the app.
(like "CAP LOCK" / "Fn+SPC")

It might take time. I will let you know when finished.

I'm really happy to hear that!!! :D

Thank you!!!

[galt]

I'm not using the latest version yet, but is it just me or does this not allow alt+tab to switch between programs? I can do this using my Bluetooth keyboard, it brings up a little menu showing a horizontal list of icons of active programs you can choose from. If it is not enabled at this time, is there a chance this functionality could be added?

Thanks,

Galt

[tom_hiro255]

Hi galt

Thank you for your reply.
I'm not sure ATL+TAB works or not at this time.
I will check it. :D

thank you.

[Struan]

Tom PQz is excellent! I'm testing a Jasjar for sysadmin at my company and the difficulty in typing CTRL-C was proving a big drawback. But, that might be in the past. Thanks. :)

Here are my two suggestions:

1. Could you make it an option for the CTRL or ALT key to work one-time - i.e. so that CTRL or ALT mode goes off after typing just one character? I would find it more natural then to hold my 'CTRL' key and hit C or D etc. Alternatively, can you make it so that the CTRL or ALT mode is on only while the key is held down?

2. the vertical bar '|' or pipe character is pretty vital to us Unix users, yet it's hard to get at normally. Can you make it an option to configure a spare Fn key (e.g. Fn+Q) to map to the pipe character?

[tom_hiro255]

Hi Struan

I would make new option for CTRL and ALT mode next version.

Thank you for your suggestions. :D

cheers

tom

[Struan]

Cool Tom!!! Thanx for such the service.

[ei99070]

Really great program!!!

Here's a suggestion: how about showing the state of CTRL, ALT and CAPS? :)

Edit: Ho, and skinning!!! Nothing against it, but the green icon is not very pleasurable... :wink:

[tom_hiro255]

Hello ei99070,

>Here's a suggestion: how about showing the state of CTRL, ALT and CAPS?

I will add CTRL+ALT state icon. but now, I can't find the way how to get the CAPS lock status on Universal. if anyone know that plz tell me... :<

>Edit: Ho, and skinning!!! Nothing against it, but the green icon is not very pleasurable...

nhhhhhhh, I like green. but OK I will change it. :D

thank you suggestion. v(^^

[SiliconS]

>Edit: Ho, and skinning!!! Nothing against it, but the green icon is not very pleasurable...

nhhhhhhh, I like green. but OK I will change it. :D
Is this the icon in the Start bar? (At the top.)
If so, a simple white would look nicely integrated with the OS connectivity icons. :)

Still waiting to try this app. I'm hoping that one day it will do:
- FN+Shift = Ctrl
- SYM+TAB = task switching

Can the OS handle more than two button presses? Will it register three buttons simultaneously?

[tom_hiro255]

Hi SiliconS,

>Is this the icon in the Start bar? (At the top.)
>If so, a simple white would look nicely integrated with the OS connectivity icons.

First, I started to develop this app for Japanese users.
The icon show the mean Green => IME on(Input Japanese mode)
Gray => IME off.

but, It has no meaning to single byte users(like English).
Maybe most of English people dosen't need to change the color.

So, I will change the function next version.
*)The color dosen't change any more If you choose the option IME none.
(Maybe default color is connectivity icons like.)
*)You can use your own ICON(BMP file).


>Still waiting to try this app. I'm hoping that one day it will do:
>- FN+Shift = Ctrl

>Can the OS handle more than two button presses? Will it register three buttons simultaneously?

I have no idea now, I will check it later.

I have got some nice suggestions today. HAPPPPPY :D

thank you.

[ei99070]

but now, I can't find the way how to get the CAPS lock status on Universal. if anyone know that plz tell me... :<

Well i have at least two ways:
- The first is you handle your self the caps key!! I know you can do this because your program is able to map it to another function ;)
- The second is by using (GetKeyState(20) AND 1)>0; I toke this from .NET Framework, so it will surely work! I think that CAPS raises the WM_KEYDOWN, so you can check there if the CAPS changed :)


nhhhhhhh, I like green. but OK I will change it. :D

Thank's :D

[jiashiuan]

Tom, thank you very much!

And I found it's surprisingly great for Tradition Chinese users
like me! I can use single key to toggle Chinese IME on/off, and
set SIP auto changer for port/land mode.

Of course the green icon is functional and useful for me. So I would
like keping this color change in the future :D

I am using Dopod 900, a Traditional Chinese version of Universal
in Taiwan.

[tom_hiro255]

Hello jiashiuan

Wow I'm really happy to hear from you.

Ofcourse, The ICON color change will be kept in the future.
It will depend on the IME Option

IME none -> Color won't be change any more.(Keep IME ON color)
IME others -> Color will be change. (IME ON/OFF toggle color)

so, I have a question about Chinese IME.

Option IME (YES/NO)
Does it work? Shift+LEFT / Shift+RIGHT / Shift+DOWN
when "Forecast candidate" appears.
(See pictures)

thank you.

Tom,

We don't have "forcast" function in CHT (Chinese Traditional) IME .
It's sad. We can only type Chinese Characters one by one. So your
Option IME function is not available in CHT Dopod 900. What a pity.

For example, I am using "phonetic Imput method" for Chinese input.
it uses special symbols to express the pronunciation. These symbols
is only used in Taiwan. After input the symbols, we have to choose
the desire character manually, than input another character, and so on..

Show you my pictures...

[ashby]

Is it possible to map alt/ctrl to either the message button or web button. I can easily livew without them

Regards

Ash

[tom_hiro255]

jiashiuan> thank you very much. I understand.


ashby> I'm sorry about that I want to know how to get the buttons keycodes. look at the picture.

MAIL/WEB buttons does not ouput any keycode...
(Please let me now anyone know that.)

thank you.

[jiashiuan]

Tom ,

one request and one problem:

1. May I upload and introduce your PQz to a website in Taiwan?

http://www.mobile01.com

It's one of the biggest website talking about PDA and mobile devices
in Taiwan. I wish to write an introduce of your PQz in Chinese.
Some pictures and text in your website would be used, if you allowed
me to do that.


2. I use Pocket Music Bundle 4.0.2 to play MP3 files. After running PQz,
the hotkey in Pocket Music is not functional. ie. Next, Previous, Play/pause
......

It looks like PQz hook the hardware keys before PocketMusic.

But in Windows Media Player, everything is good. Hotkey works fine.

[tom_hiro255]

Hello jiashiuan,

Of course you may. I would be happy you do that.
But, In a few days PQz will be big changed.
I'm writting new WEB page for that.
Maybe you should wait to do that for just few days.


Unfortunately, I don't know about Pocket Music.
I will check Pocket Music on the web later.

thank you.

[thaihugo]

Hello Tom,

I love your app, which make my universal very happy. I just would like to know if you could add an option to make the icon disapear? I don't really need to see the state of the key, and it doesn't integrate well if you use programs like wisabr advance that skin the task bar. Maybe you could add it as an option, or make the icon disapear after lauch and just reappear when it has something to display for a few seconds?

[tom_hiro255]

Hi thaihugo

I'm very interested in your suggestion.
I will consider it.

Thank you :D

[Boinger]

Hi Tom,

I am trying to create an icon for your wonderful program that will match the skins I use. Do you have the dimensions in pixels of the space your program takes up on the taskbar?

Thanks,
Boinger

[tom_hiro255]

Hi Boinger

You mean ICON width & height?
if so, VGA 224(28x8)x28 or QVGA/OzVGA 160(20x8)x20

You will see the format in PQz web page.

http://www.nicque.com/PQz

[Boinger]

First, sorry, I should have read the webpage more closely.

Second, now that I have the dimensions, I have experimented with some images and have come up with a 'passable' skin. Before I do any more, I have a question? (and forgive me if I presume too much...)

Is is possible to resize your program to a window either 32X32 because of the large amount of premade icons in that size or 32X52 for the Wisbar people?

I know this is possibly asking quite a bit, but in the long run I think it could service people better. I would even be willing to take a stab at resizing the icons to 32x32 (or 32x52 with WM5 blue bars on top and bottom to make the icon look like it is 32x32).

Third, is it possible to detach the image from the .exe to reduce the file size for people who want to use other images. This is not that big of a deal since your program is so small, but every bit helps.

Just some ideas... Thanks for creating such a wonderful and useful program.

Boinger

[FOSA]

Hi!

Anyway to add 'HOME' and 'END' keys? Very useful when typing sms or using WORD program

Thanks

[tom_hiro255]

HI Boinger

I think that I can add new function for resize 32x32 => 20x20 or 28x28 like.
but, PQz's image format is BMP and the BMP file contains 224(28 x 8 ) width x 28 height pixels.

Resize function
256(32 x 8 ) x 32 -> 224(28x8 ) x 28

Maybe I should make another program for PQz.

the new program will do below

1) Select 8 ICON files
2) Convert 1 BMP format
3) Save

[Boinger]

Hi tom_hiro255,

The resizing is not the issue, per se. I can resize the icons without much issue. The problem comes down to icons that are part of skins. When I resize an icon that is part of a skin, it shifts the shading and makes it not look like a natural part of the skin. So then, I would have to blend the resized icon back into the background. At 32(x8)x32, this is no longer an issue (and once again, there would be no need for resizing for many icons).

Here is a copy of a new 32(x8)x32 template, for illustration of what I originally meant.

Once again, I acknowledge that changing the size is a big deal and if you are not interested, please let me know now.

[tom_hiro255]

Hi Boinger

I am a bit confused.
The issue will be solved if PQz is changed the ICON size 32x32?

I have a idea the icon size.

1) Load BMP file
2) Get width pixels size.
3) (width / 8) = ICON size (calculate ICON size automatically)
for example
width 256( 32x8 ) / 8 = 32 pix
width 224( 28x8 ) / 8 = 28 pix
4) Show ICON.

How do you think it?

[GeirFrimann]

Hi thaihugo

I'm very interested in your suggestion.
I will consider it.

Thank you :D

I really like the idea of hiding the taskbar icon!
Maybe if you add an option to play a sound for the different keyactions would be perfect!

[DocteurN]

Thanks for your work tom_hiro255 !

DocteurN>Can I add your icon on my website?

cheers

tom

[galt]

I'm not sure why, but on my JasJar this program is causing my green phone buttons (both on the keyboard and on the hinge) to not function when the program is running. If I hit the green phone buttons I will see the Pqz icon toggle from blue to white but my phone no longer opens the phone app or answers an incoming call, & that's a big problem. I'm using version 0.0.19. Anyone else have this issue?

*Edit - sorry, fixed it by changing the IME setting to none - I forgot to do that when installing the new version, I think it was mentioned somewhere previously.

[DocteurN]

tom_hiro255 > Of course you can :wink:
I' m looking for other ideas so if I've got other icons I will post them here...

[thaihugo]

To end with the icon placment advice, after the hiding option, or the sound option, maybe I can add that on the universal, a tray icon would be perfect, as we are already using this space for the battery and rotation icon. So their would be no waste of space, and the small screen estate of the task bar would be retained a bit more.

Anyway, your program is a great contribution to the universal, and it should be flashed in roms by operators :wink:

[Boinger]

Hi again tom_hiro255,

I have also created a new VGA skin for your program. It is based on juni's Black and White Wisbar Advanced 2 skin. I wanted to get juni's approval before posting so I had to send screenshots and such. Well, the good news is that juni approved and I can post it here. (You can post it on your website as well, tom_hiro255).

Special thanks to you tom_hiro255 for this program and to juni for the wonderful skins that are created!

Without further ado, I have attached the skin along with some screenshots.

Boinger


Edit: Click on screenshots for the full VGA glory! :shock: :D

[Mythozz]

Sorry for the small off topic post, but Boinger, please could you tell me how you placed those icons in Pocket Plus?

I searched the forums but nothing important came up. I know that Pocket Plus comes with its own set of icons... but all I want is to put my Icons from WAD in SPB Pocket plus...

I would really appreciate any feedback.

As for the pQz program it's excellent but I have a problem changing the skin (the bmp file)...

I want something like this:

http://www.gpspassion.com/upload/clavier.bmp but I save it in my Universal, load it from the program and it comes up... distorted... any help?

[Boinger]

Hi Mythozz,

First off, I don't use Pocket Plus. I use iLauncher by SBSH which can found at http://www.sbsh.net/products/ilauncher/. I love this program because it is easy to use custom icons (and the resident memory footprint is MUCH smaller :D ). The icons were created by mikesjo and can be found at the SBSH forum.

As for the issue with distortion, this is because you are trying to use a QVGA file for your your VGA device. I hope DocteurN does not mind, but I resized his Clavier QVGA up to VGA for you Mythozz. I tried this new image on mine and it worked well.

Regards,
Boinger

[DocteurN]

Yes this is normal : this icon is for a QVGA screen not a VGA like on your Universal.
If I find a capture of WM5.0 keyboard icon I'll make the same compatible for VGA screen if you want :wink:

[Mythozz]

Thank you both for the prompt answers. Yes you're right I confused it with Pocket Plus. Yep, I changed it, and now using iLauncher which is more flexible in the way it uses the icons. Thank you again Boinger.

@DocteurN: As for the pQz problem yes I thought of it just after making my first post here :p

I would be very much oblidged if you could make a VGA version for your skin. It's simple and combines with the embedeed WM menu. :)

Thanx again ;)

P.S. The resized bmp still works fine :) Clever thought Boinger. ;)

My god!!! Your implementation of Task Manager is very well done, I'm so thrilled that you added that! Also props on the code tab that lets you customize even more CTL or ALT shortcuts (my fav is the much needed end/home function).

The only problem I had was that I couldn't figure out how to activate the Symbol Window, the check box is checked on the Ext tab, but if I'm in a note and hit Ctrl SPC (space?) nothing happens. Shouldn't it pop up with a window showing optional symbols?

Hello Tom,

I could define the CTRL + arrow action to HOME or END with the previous version, using the arrow code key. Now I don't have anymore the choice, as you predefined the alphanumeric caracter. Is it possible for you to add some more key to the selection (25,26,27,28)? Arrow would be a good choice. Or maybe You can add a user selectable input?

Thanks

Hugo

Hi thaihugo

> Is it possible for you to add some more key to the selection (25,26,27,28 )?

Yes, I will add that next update.
also, It's the best way to add a user selectable input.(I will do this later)

thank you.

Hi

I updated PQz.

http://www.nicque.com/PQz

1)Fix task manager bug
2)PQz exit method changed
3)Code option's parameter add -/=/,/./Left/Right/Up/Down
e.g) CTRL+LEFT => HOME
CTRL+RIGHT => END
CTRL+UP => PREV PAGE
CTRL+DOWN => NEXT PAGE

Thank you

tom

Tom Hiro, got another question for you. I read somewhere that VS2005std only handles wm5 sdk C# and not C++, while VS2005pro handles both wm5 sdk C# and C++.

Are you using VS2005std or VS2005pro?

[thaihugo]

Thanks Tom for addding back the key so quickly. Working like a charm!

Very nice, it's great to get access to those symbols without having to pull up the onscreen keyboard.

Would it be possible to slightly change the behavior of stopping a task in the task manager so it doesn't immediately exit the task manager? That way if you want to kill multiple running programs you don't need to keep opening the task manager to stop each one.

Also, if this is to remain freeware, where can we donate some funds to the developer?

[tom_hiro255]

Hi galt,

so, I will add Code option CTRL(or ALT) + (key) = TASK CLOSE ALL.
like CTRL+LEFT=PRIOR

That's a nice idea which you suggested me. :D

thank you.

Hi All!
I love your App so much! But I've got the trouble!!!!
I am now using Vietnamese hardware Keyboard, so i think that it uses the same Key hooks with your app that they can not be used at the same time. Is there any way to fix it?
Hope to get newer version!!! Tnks!

I've been watching this thread since you first posted. I haven't d/l'd your appy...yet. I will.

But I did want to tell you I think you're an awfully nice guy and have a big heart. Thank you so much for your contribution and generosity.

[AgentJ]

Nice Work ! I love the tool !

Many thanks for your work,
Jay

[galt]

I agree with the above poster, nice work, nice guy, big heart. The constant updates, incorporating feature requests very quickly, is a great service to this community.

I really love the latest changes to the app - being able to continue to close other apps once you bring up the task manager (or select multiple symbols in the symbol app) and the ability to map app close and close all to key combos really makes me happy. The close all works very well, it doesn't seem to kill the phone app (which is good) and it doesn't kill the today screen softkeys like GSPocket Magic's close all does.

This app may sound simple, but to me it adds a lot of functionality that is missing from Windows Mobile. It has really bugged me to have to take my thumbs off the huge keyboard on the JasJar just to do something simple. This app is quickly changing that. Ever since I switched from the Hiptop to PPC I've missed the Hiptop's excellent keyboard integration, thank you for fixing this.

The next feature I'd LOVE to see (I think you might have mentioned it already) is the ability to launch apps by key combos, like Ctrl+1 through 0 to launch or switch to apps mapped to those buttons.

Again, if this is to remain freeware where can we donate to the developer?

Hi!
Thank you for quickly response!
I am Vietnamese so that the Vietnamese Keyboard is very important for me. For my JJ I am using a software that allow me typing Vietnamese charactors by the QWERTY keyboard.
To do that, the software monitor the key typing, etc: When you type "o" single time, you have "o" charactor, but when you type it double time, you can have a Vietnamese charactor....
So, when i use your app, my Vietnamese Keyboard app can not start.
And if I Launch your app when Vietnamese keyboard is running, it said that "keyboard hooks is fail"
My English is not well so I hope that you understand me!

I think your vietnamese writing app works exactly like PQz, via keyboard hooks. And since two apps can not do the same thing at the same time, i guess there is no solution. I *guess*..

[nhieutien]

You are quite right!!!
Maybe The Vietnamese keyboard must have ctrl/alt function in the next version!!!
Awwww!!!

[DocteurN]

Really great job ! I've just installed the last version and it works well ! Thanks !
I've got a question : is there a way to tell the Task manager (CTRL+TAB) to note show some programs (like ActiveSync or apps for the phone) ?
It could be great to have this possibility :D cos' it would accelerate the switch...

I'm really happy to support this forum. :D
Of course PQz is freeware forever.


>nhieutien

The Vietnamese Keyboard software is a EXE file?
Can I try that? sorry still no idea.


>DocteurN

In the future, You can see new option.
so, You can choose apps for not seeing on the Task list.
e.g) If you don't want to see ActiveSync and Phone Icon on the Task Manager.
Just add the App to the list on the new option dialog.

after that Font settings will be added for Task Manager and Symbol Window.


thank you.

[dreamtheater39]

How about this....
when you have the task switcher active, you currently have the following option -
1. You can kill one task, or continue killing other tasks by pressing a button...

Can you add these -
2. You can highlight a task and press "H" which will add the program to the "hidden list" so that it wont list that in the task switched next time...
3. When you go into the settings page, it should list all the hidden programs, and you should be able to delete it from the list....


btw, great job tom...you're definitely *noble* :)

Hey tom_hiro255,

Thanks for making the icon size adjustable!

Because of this I have designed a new version of the skin I posted earlier on this thread. Now the PQz icon is the same size as the other Black & White icons (designed by juni). This time, I also made a custom symbol for your program.

It is attached along with a screenshot.

Thanks again for being such a responsize developer!

Thanks again for your work :wink:

[tom_hiro255]

Hi DocteurN

> what does the 'Hide Task icon on boot' option in Task Tab means ?

Maybe I should delete this option. Its not important.

That is for Task Manager. It effects Hide ICONs OFF(or ON) after Execute PQz.
same like 'H' key on Task Manager.

e.g)
1)Check ON then Exit and Exec PQz.
2)CTRL+TAB (Task Manager)
3)Task name bar is normal color (GRAY) on Task Manager.(bottom of the window)
4)You can see Icons + 'H'.

1)Check ON then Exit and Exec PQz.
2)CTRL+TAB (Task Manager)
3)Task name bar is normal color (BLUE) on Task Manager.(bottom of the window)
4)You CAN'T see Icons + 'H'.


>A request : could it be possible to create a keyboard shortcut or icon
>to switch to the today screen ? (maybe in the todo list I don't know...)

Next, I will work for App launcher. (keyboard shortcut and App buttons.)

I'm having one problem with the last version and this latest one. If I exit PQZ it creates a task.ini file in my Windows\StartUp folder, and if I reset my device it chokes on that file upon start up. I think I first saw this file get created after I selected the option 'Hide Task icon on boot' but that option is no longer on the program.

Thanks.

Galt

[tom_hiro255]

Hi galt

I didn't test which copy 'PQz.exe' to the \Windows\Startup folder directly.

task.ini is created in same directory of 'PQz.exe' after set 'C' or 'H' on the Task Manager window. (It doesn't matter 'Hide Task icon on boot' option)

Please move 'PQz.exe' to other folder(\Program files or else) and make shortcut (PQz.lnk) in the startup folder.

thank you.

hey tom!

great work on pqz, thanks very much and I really appreciate your efforts!

here are a couple suggestions which I would really love to see in pqz...
1. option to disable showing the icon permanently on the title bar
2. option to use JUST one button for both control and alt by cycling states...here's an example -

a. assign "Sym" button for control
b. select (new to be added)option use control key to cycle states

now, when I press "sym" once, it presses control...press "sym" again, it changest it to "alt"..press it back once again, both are switched off (neither control nor alt)....this way, I can loose just one button, and have both control and alt functionality!

thanks again, and I hope it made sense!

[woschirmer]

@dreamtheater39

you can do this already by assigning the same key (in your case 'sym') to both the CTRL and ALT button in the first setup tab (key).
And if you don't check the box titled Use CTRL + ALt the program cycles through CTRL - ALT -NONE, if you check it it cycles through CTRL - ALT - CTRL&ALT -NONE

Hi Tom,
Just downloaded your latest version, very nice! I like the new task manager as well! :D
Just a few thoughts, I might be using it incorrectly though;
When I press H to hide something in the Task Manager it displays a little H symbol on it. But when I reopen the Task Manager the task is still displayed, I thought it was supposed to physically hide the task?
Also, is it possible to have FN + Shift as an option for CTRL or ALT?

Many thanks!

[Richard Schmidt]

I'm using PQz with great pleasure, but since the last version 023 my CTRL key (SYM) seems to act as "sticky". When I use SYM-E (CTRL-E) to start excel (and pressing both SYM and E simulaniously) the CTRL indicator says ON and I have to press SYM again to switch if off.

Both USE CTRL+ALT and KEEP CTRL/ALT ON setting are unchecked. If I use the WIN key as CTRL key it seems to work just fine.

Anyone a clue?

I mistakenly listed all the byte sizes of the registry key values. I will try to delete registry key \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Gzh\PQz and reconfigure PQz and see if problems are solved. Thanks for your help.

[Mikew]

Richard

I thought that you were supposed to release the SYM key before pressing the control key, rather than pressing them at the same time.

Tom

How do I configure PQz so it does not output an <ESCAPE> character before the control code, as some of my old DOS software don't like the <ESCAPE> character. For example I have configured <SYM> as control key, when I press <SYM> E it outputs ASCI codes <27> <5>.

Thanks for a great product, I can now run some of my old DOS programs, getting rid of <27> will also enable me to edit them.

Mike

[woschirmer]

Tom,

first of all thanks for this magnific application. It's really a killer application for me.

But I have a problem: I assigned ctrl to the Menu2 key in the key-tab. Afterwards using the Button-tab I assigned a program to the hold-menu2 key.
This makes that I can't use the ctrl anymore. Pressing the menu2 key just uses the program defined events for this key.

Wolfgang

[stanip]

Hey Tom, it is great to see that PQz is getting better and better. Congrate to your wonderful effort! One wish I always have is to have a "shift" key on the right hand-side of the keyboard in addition to the left hand-side one to make Cap input easier. Wonder if it is possible to use PQz to map the "sym" key as "Shift"? Thanks!

[tom_hiro255]

I confuse bit...
I think that you assigned CTRL(SYM)+E -> ESCAPE in the Code-tab.
then, it does not output ESCAPE<27/0x1B> when press <SYM> E ?

ahhhh, I understand the problem.

so, HTC Universal's hardware keyboard driver is a very strange.
Especially, Fn, Shift, CAPS keys are...
I hope I can configure those in the future....

Hi

I uploaded a new PQz ver 0.0.24

*) changed INI files saving.
- after using 'C' or 'H' on Task Manager.
- after closing Option window.

Don't need to exit PQz anymore after changing settings.


*) CTRL/ALT/IME work with Button option.
e.g)
assign CTRL to the MENU1 in the Key-tab.
then, assign a program to the MENU1 Hold key.

Now, It works both. :D

[doody]

Hi Tom_Hiro,

In the CTRL/ALT-TAB task switcher, would it be possible for PQz to automatically assign 0-9 A-Z to all the running tasks. So for example, to switch to a particular application that's already running you can press CTRL-TAB then press 6.

This allows us to avoid having to tab through the entire list. Would be awesome to have this ;)


Tom

[tom_hiro255]

Nice idea doody!!

I will add the function next version.

thank you.

tom

[dreamtheater39]

tom, any support for hiding the icon even in landscape mode??

its too intrusive and sometimes overlaps on other notifications...I guess I can live without seeing it!

how about doing this instead....
1. change the icon of PQz to match the top left start menu icon (the MS window logo on the top left)
2. change the position of the icon to extreme left, so that it blends completely!

anybody????

cheers!

It is not difficult. I will write a few codes to add the function.

>> Alsoi would like to see the taskmanager appear when clicking on the >> PQz Icon directly (no tap-hold...)

I have to consider this idea. because clicking on the PQz icon already has another action for Japanese. (IME on/off)

but It is ok if choose a IME option => NONE.



I'm really happy to recieve nice suggestion and idea.
Thank you.

[wahidullah]

Tom, many many thanks the effort you made to PQz.

I think clicking on the icon should get the today screen would be also a good idea.

[tom_hiro255]

Hi wahidullah

Maybe Icon click should have selectable action.
I will think about that.

thank you

[Mikew]

Hi Tom

Not sure I understand your explanation, I have configured Code tab as attached, codes for Ctrl E & H work correctly, all the others such as CTRL B say ELLEGAL ESCAPE SEQUENCE as receiving <Escape> <CTRL B>

Having problem attaching file, colums are:-

Col 1 Col 2 Col 3
CTRL E END
CTRL H HOME
CTRL B none

Also would it be possible to include 'INSERT' in the list of possible escape sequences as this toggles between Insert & overwrite mode in some applications.

hello tom,
many thanks for your great product! i use it a lot. is there any possibility that you added a little more functionality for the keyboard combinations? for example i would like to have keyboard shortcuts for the following:
1) turn wifi or bluetooth on/off
2) turn the screen off
3) rotate the screen

thanks, fuf.

[Jackar]

Hi Tom ! Very nice and usefull tool you have created ;).
I`d just like to know, if it is possible to hide an icon on the taskbar somehow. It really desn`t look good when I`m running Wisbar Advanced.

Thx very much and keep up your good work !

[tom_hiro255]

>> fuf

Thanks for the idea. I will think about it.


>> Jackar

I'm sorry about that. recently, I have not enough time to do lots.
How is this idea which just 1x8 pics icon?(the color is the same as Wisbar Advanced)

cheers,

Having read about PQz.exe in forum.xda-developers.com, I have - of course - tried to install this excellent program. But when I click at PQz.exe at my desktop, I get the message that "PQz.exe is not a valid Win32 application". As a next step, I copied the file to the Windows folder on my Jasjar. Clicking on the PQz.exe file in File explorer, the PQz symbol appears at the top of the screen, but nothing more happens.

What should I do???

[galt]

After the icon shows up, tap and hold on the icon and choose setup.

[galeno]

Hi Tom. Thanks for your program.
I'm a spanish user, in my Qtek 9000.

I've found two problems:

When I have opened the "Programs" (Start ---> Programs) and I use the close or close all function, it gives me and error (error in the shell or something like this)

The task screen in setup doesný function for me. There is no ADD buttom, only DEL.

Thanks.

[tom_hiro255]

Hi galeno

Yesterday, I realized the same problem closing Programs made a error then reset. I will fix it.

You can add to the task list on Task Manager just type 'C' on choosen icon.

thank you.

tom

[galeno]

Thanks Tom.

I,ve got another problem. When i use the "close all" function in PQz, i´d like my email client (webis mail, no the mail program in WM5) doesn´t close, because i need this program always running for the automatic mail reception. Is it possible to exclude one program from the "close all" function?

Thanks again.

[tom_hiro255]

Hi galeno

I know that problem. I have to fix it as soon as possible.
after fixing it, it no more close (if 'C' is choosen on Task Manager) when doing close all.

thank you

should set 'C' mark!!!
It might be cause of softreset if doesn't set 'C'.

PQz expects the Program name "Programs" in English.
but, In Japanese it is not the same name.
If you use other languages it has same problem.

Hi Tom.

Well done with last version. No problem with programs. And I don´t need to "C" mark this.

Thanks

[galt]

Hi Tom,

I'm really glad the Program close crash has been fixed, but I'm not a fan of the new option *OK button => close SINGLE task*. Can you please make this an option that we can turn off or on via a menu in setup? Or post a version with the bug fixes but without this option?

Thanks,

Galt

[dalelane]

I'm not a fan of the new option *OK button => close SINGLE task*. Can you please make this an option that we can turn off or on via a menu in setup?
yeah, i'd agree with that. I absolutely love this app, but this is a bit extreme for me, sorry!

would be interesting to have an alternate OK button, so we can choose whether we want to close or minimise an app.... so I can minimise my media player cos I want to leave it playing, but close MS Word cos I know i've finished working on a do, for example

i've reverted back to the last version before this in the meantime.... which, by the way, is very cool that I can do this - I like that you continue to host the previous versions

thanks again for all your work on this!

[ashby]

I know that this may make the application a bit bigger, but could you add a help file as I keep forgetting some of the shortcuts etc

Also, FYI for anyone who hasn't tried it, you can even set your internet favorite addresses to open with a keyboard shortcut, for example I've set CTRL+1, 2, 3, 4, etc. to open some of my favorite web pages.

In the newest version (see 3 posts up) all you have to do is make sure the option "Use OK button(Task Close/ALL)" is unchecked, it will return the Ok button to previous fuctionality..

Excellent work Tom. I just thought of one more short-cut that I think a ton of
people would love - a ctrl+key option for deleting Pocket Internet Explorer cache. I must do this twice a day just to avoid running out of ROM storage. Is there anyway you could make this an option in your program?

Thanks,

Galt

[tom_hiro255]

Hi galt

I think maybe clearing IE cache should be simple standalone application.
and assign CTRL+(key) in PQz because some people does not use IE.

I will make the simple app for you when I have enough time.

thank you.

Sorry Tom, I don't understand. What does this new option do?

[gnassel]

The device comes with in-ear phones. There is a button to accept incoming telephone calls. It would be great to use this button e.g. mc voice command.

[tom_hiro255]

Hi galt

e.g) PocketInformat includes PITab.exe. so PITab.exe requires a parameter.
if I want to launch
Monthly Calender : "PITab.exe 5" (File : PITab.exe Param : 5)
Todo : "PITab.exe 8" (File : PITab.exe Param : 8)

sometime other software need to use parameter like that.

xxxxx.exe /S
xxxxx.exe -Q


Hi gnassel

so, I checked the ear phone. It seems no work as key code.
I hope I could find the solution.... :<

[latenightmac]

Thanks guys for some reason I had it in my head you needed CAB files, I now have the exe working nicely really like the app switcher feature!

[RyanZA]

Hey tom, great program!

Im wondering if it would be possible to do this:

The keyboard has the buttons 1-0 and - and = like a normal full size keyboard, but to use the special keys ! and @ and # etc. you need to press the FN key instead of the SHIFT key. Would it be possible to change this so that you press the shift key to get the keys ! @ # etc? Also, would it then be possible to remap the FN+1, FN+2, etc keys to F1, F2, function keys on a regular keyboard?

The function keys are really helpful for using older applications through terminal that require them. (i.e. many old programs use F10 to bring down the menu)

Anyway, thanks!

[tom_hiro255]

Hi RyanZA

In fact, Shift key does not have any effect on 1-0 - = keys.
When push Shift+1 key, it's same as just push 1 key.

but, Fn+1 is put Shift+1 out.... hmmmm strange....

push 1 only:
DOWN 0x31 (1)
UP 0x31

push Shift+1:
DOWN 0x31
UP 0x31

push Fn+1:
DOWN 0x10 (Shift)
DOWN 0x31
UP 0x31
UP 0x10

I'm afraid that it's not possible I think...

but, I upload new version.
It might be able to help your request.

1) Create Convert.ini file and copy this.

"CTRL","0x31","none","0x79"

this meaning is CTRL+1 => F10
(sorry, I've not tested much for this function.)

F1 0x70
F2 0x71
F3 0x72
:
:
F10 0x79

but HTC Universal already uses some of them for Application keys.
WIN 0x5B
SYM 0x7A
CAP 0x14
Fn+D 0xE7
Fn+E 0xE8
APP 0x5D
TEL1 0x72 *********
TEL2 0x73 *********
BAR1 0x70 *********
BAR2 0x71 *********
APP1 0xC1
APP2 0xC2
APP3 0xC3
APP4 0xC5
APP5 0xC8

Thanks tom!

It doesn't work though.. windows seems to catch all the F1-F10 keys before they get to the program itself. At least this gives a shortcut to the today screen with F4.

[RyanZA]

Windows seems to intercept all pageup/pagedown/home/end etc commands too. There must be some way to get around that..?

so, PQz is growing up... that is a problem.
I know the reason why.. PQz includes lots of icon files now.
In fact, ICON BMP total size is 82KB. (half size of PQz.exe 164KB) :<
hmmmm,,,

tom

[galeno]

Thanks Tom

It was only a idea. Perhaps growing up more a more is doing it more but less functional. PQz is my only one program in my today. No need pluggings and this runs my Qtek 9000 very fast. I don´t want too much options if the size of PQz is becoming my PDA more slow.

Good job again

Could you explain me what is IMEI (only for japanese users i understood)

[tom_hiro255]

IME is for Japanese (Chinese, Korian or else).
We need to convert from Alphabet to Japanese (Like Chinese charactor).

so, You just set IME option "none" and "NO" if you only use Alphabet.

Hey Tom!!!!!!


This is the BEST feature ever added so far in pqz!!!!

I just love this feature soooooooooooo much that I can't live without pqz anymore! I virtually have an infinite number of speed dials.........that's so damn coool!

Thanks tom, for this wonderful app!

another couple suggestions....
1. Could you extend the option "Disable dial except today" to both Today and the Phone application?
In other words, I want my telephone shortcuts to work when my phone application is active, and of course, the today screen as well...

2. Alternatively, when the phone application is active, if you press letters on the keyboard, it does nothing currently. Can you simulate pressing the corresponding number instead when I press an alphabet? For example, when I type "san", it should send out "726", so that the intelli dial would pick up the numbers and list out names...

Thanks again soooooo very much!
San

[dreamtheater39]

Another suggestion...

When I hit control+space for my symbols window, could you extra functionality there to have another set of custom defined text inserts? You should be able to switch between symbols and this new addon by pressing TAB. The custom messages are text strings for quickly inserting things while typing...

for example, I could have smileys, signatures and other common messages, that I can quickly type into with a simple key press...

Thanks,
San

Abuot gsGetFile.dll can you link me or show me the right file for my processor?

Just downloaded this to make my symbol key the CTRL key, but there are so many options!!! Anything in particular you guys would recommend I set in it??

BTW it works a treat!!!

p.s. what does the sym key normally do? Never used it before!

[tom_hiro255]

In my case, I assign CAPS to CTRL and SYM to IME(for Japanese).
usually I don't use ALT( but sometime WIN. testing for new function) :D hehe

[galt]

Tom, the functionality you keep adding is fantastic! Thank you again for all of your hard work, this is a great contribution to the community.

One question: In a previous version I was able to set up a ctrl+key combo to move cursor to end or beginning of a line (or beginning or end of a web page). I can't find this option in the latest version and the key code I had used (Ctrl+S and Ctrl+D) no longer work. Is this option still in PQz?

Also, I am running latest version on the JasJar with no problem.

[dreamtheater39]

Hello Tom!

Thanks for the Text option!!

Did you check my other requests in my previous post?
(Telephone shortcuts to work in Today screen & "Phone" application...converting alphabets pressed to numbers in the phone app)

Also, in the text option, can you support "Multi-Line" text inserts? So that I could use it to insert my email signature etc.


Thanks again sooo very much!!!

Hey Tom...

I just found a bug in pqz...
If the clipboard is empty (for example during a fresh boot) and you try to start pqz, it loads and immediately quits.

So every time I soft reset, it doesn't autostart successfully...

I have to first copy some text into the clipboard, and then start pqz to launch it successfully.

Confirmed. Same behavior here.

[fuf]

hello Tom,

your program is fantastic! however i think i've found a little bug: when 'Use CTRL + ALT' is checked i think the program should allow specifying key combinations with 'CTRL + ALT' as well. instead it only offers 'CTRL', 'ALT' or 'none' in the comboboxes. 'CTRL + ALT' should be added when the option is checked.

thanks, fuf.

Hi asci>>

I think that new version PQz fix your problem. (PQz abort when clipboard is empty).


Hi galt>>

I think you can find the option Code tab.
e.g)
CTRL+S => none+END
CTRL+R => none+HOME


Hi dreamtheater39>>

so, You can see many 'PHONE' icons on the Task Manager window.
'PHONE' has 3 or 4 another windows. I mean you can't use assigned keys as shortcut like 1~9 on 'PHONE' windows. I need more time to think about it but not now. sorry.


Hi fuf>>

yes, CTRL+ALT combination should be there but it might take long time to change because CTRL/ALT function relates all of the inside of PQz.
In the future, I will do.(also, WiFi&BT are same.)

1. When I'm typing in the edit box, no matter what I do, the "Ok" button for the dialog is always highlighted. The moment I press "enter", the dialog closes ("Ok" button gets pressed). So I can't enter any multi-line text because of this!

Otherwise, the build is great!

Cheers,
San

Hi,
yes, now I can start it but I've solved one of my two problems, infact I still have this one: when my phone Is turned off by timer and I power it on again I find that Pqz has been turned off and I have to start it again. The same problem after receiving a call.
THX again...

Hi asci and Matteo66

I have not found the bug at the time.

Could you try those step?

1) Exit PQz
2) buckup PQz registory. \\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Gzh\PQz
3) delete PQz registory.
4) rename all INI files in the same folder PQz.
5) Boot PQz

Plz let me know if PQz still does not work.

thank you

tom

[tom_hiro255]

One more thing,

Could you check ROM version?

Settings > Device Information > Version

ROM version :
Radio version :
Protocol version :
ExtROM version :

cheers,

Hi,
PQz is realy a cool tool but I would like to have one addition (or maybe it is allready possible?).

If you have a look at this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=41060) thread. There is a nice little program which maps the softkeys if you keep them pressed for a long time.

tap soft key = orginal soft key functions
tap and hold left soft key = start menu
tap and hold right soft key = close/ok button

I would realy like to have this functionality in addition to PQz because that way i could easily bind the win key to ctrl and would have it's functionalitiy on holding the left softkey.

Problem right now is that the SmartSoftKey program seems to emulate a Win button press when i hold the left soft key. So if i set WIN to ctrl PQz catches the long holding of the soft key as CTRL.

So to make it short it would be realy nice to have the softkey functionality integrated into PQz. (if it's allready in the somehow I appologise and would be thankfull for an explanation how to make it work)

Edit:
Ok I think I found it in on the "Buttons" page but if the "---" symbols mean the Softkeys it doesn't seem to work when I put a program in there.

Hi, and thank you for your prompt replay
I solved the problem. I just moved the folder from the SD to the extendedROM, and now the program work properly.

Hi Tom!

Thank you very much for your great utility, it works very well!!! Although I still have some very simple problems that I cannot solve myself.

I simply can't find a way to remap some hardware keys on my german MDA PRO.

Since my nationality is hungarian, and not german, I've got 8 hungarian letters that are not present on my keyboard: á,é,ü,ű,ö,ő,í,ú

And there is one letter on the german keyboard that we don't use in hungary (ß). I'd be quite satisfied if I could remap two of the keys (as shown on the attached picture):

1. I'd like to use letter 'ö' (with sym 'ő') instead of 'ß'
2. I'd like to use letter 'ü' (with sym 'ű') instead of Message button.

Is there any way to do it, via registry key, or via PQz, or via another smart utility? Or maybe there is a file somewhere in the file system, which determines the keyboard layout, and the desired letters can be simply overwritten?

Plz Help! :(

Hi　

PQz Ver 0.0.43 up

*) Bug fix
*) BenQ P50 volume key repeat proble.
*) Shift key code bug fix

http://www.nicque.com/PQz

thank you

[tom_hiro255]

Hi HoPe

First of all, you need to know the 2 buttons key codes.
Please download PQz_CHECK from PQz web site.
http://www.nicque.com/PQz

1) Exit PQz first
2) Launch PQz_CHECK.exe
3) push the buttons which you need to check.
you can see the code.
e.g) ENTER key
DOWN 0x0D OFF
UP 0x0D OFF

also, you need to know the char codes ('ö' 'ü')
sorry, I have no idea about those char('ö' 'ü') codes.
e.g) 'A' key = 0x41


now, you are ready to use. Option > Code tab > ADD

none, 0x0D, none, 0x41
(if you push ENTER key=> 'A' output)

so, I think Universal does not output any key code if push MAIL and WEB(Message) buttons.

anyway, you can try those step.

regards,

tom

[tom_hiro255]

hi TcT>

You can try AppClose.
http://d.hatena.ne.jp/KOTETU/00000104/p5

AppClose has many parameters
e.g)
(none) Close
/A, -A Close ALL
/W, -W Start Menu

You can assign to PQz Button tab this Application and parameter
tap soft key = orginal soft key functions
tap and hold left soft key = AppClose.exe /W (start menu)
tap and hold right soft key = AppClose.exe (none) close/ok button
tap and hold right soft key = AppClose.exe /A close/ok button (Close ALL)

cya,

tom

Hi all

Sorry, PQz Ver 0.0.43 has a sending key code bug.
I uploaded Ver 0.0.44. plz download newest PQz.

cya,

tom

[TcT]

@tom_hiro255:
the AppClose.exe is a good suggestion but it seems to do the same thing so it just sends the WIN key keycode which is of course intercepted by PQz when I bind CTRL to that key.

Also on my Wizard binds to hold on the softkeys don't seem to work. Tap works fine but hold doesn't seem to have an effect.

[HoPe]

Thanks Tom! Now I understand how "code" tab works. Are the codes against the ASCII table or UNICODE table?

ASCII codes:
http://www.lookuptables.com/

UNICODE codes:
http://free.prohosting.com/~vitivas/js/UniCode/CharTab.html

I did everithing as you said.
When I press 'ß', PQz_CHECK shows the following code: 0xEA (decimal: 234)

'ö' is code 0x94 in the ASCII table, so I write in the 'code' tab:

none,0xEA,none,0x94

But when I press the 'ß' button, nothing happens. Although when I write in 'code' tab:

none,0xEA,none,0x41

it works, it shows an 'a' instead of 'ß'

Where should I look up for the character codes?

[ZeBoxx]

Try the code 0xf6 instead. That is the code for ' ö ' in Windows. 0x94 is ' ” '.

[HoPe]

I tried 0xF6 but I get the same result. Nothing happens. Thanks anyway!

[tom_hiro255]

Hi TcT>>

I will make a simple test program.
>>tap soft key = orginal soft key functions
>>tap and hold left soft key = start menu
>>tap and hold right soft key = close/ok button


Hi HoPe>>

I'm not sure it works or not.
but how about ALT + 0x94?

I found a web site
http://www.mesweet.net/altkeysymbols.html

none,0xEA,ALT,0x94
or
none,0xEA,ALT,0xF6

cya,

tom

[tom_hiro255]

I found a key code sending bug and fixed it.

Please download Ver 0.0.45

*) fixed code sending bug
*) System tab : Start menu / OK button shortcut add.

[tom_hiro255]

Hi TcT>>

>>tap soft key = orginal soft key functions
>>tap and hold left soft key = start menu
>>tap and hold right soft key = close/ok button

I made a new tool. (PQz_KEY.exe)
you can download it from PQz web site.

e.g)
PQz option > Button tab > left soft key (hold)
Name : PQz_KEY.exe
Param: D:79 U:79

PQz option > System tab > Start (* need to use PQz ver 0.0.45)
Key : none
Code : 0x79

if you push and hold left soft key.
you can see Start menu.

tom
