Use TS phone as a touchpad

Postby musicer » Tue May 04, 2010 8:07 am

Is it possible to make a new profile to use a touchscreen phone as a touchpad like a notebook, because that would be a lot of help for my htpc.

Great suggestion! This is already possible in desktop mode but may be a bit slow due to the amount of bandwidth used for sending image information. A dedicated "Touch pad" profile as you suggested should work well.

I've added this to the request list and a Touch pad profile will appear in one of the next releases. There probably won't be time to get it in for the next release (due within two weeks) but hopefully the one after.

Ok, nice, because the desktop profile doesn't let you use it as a real touchpad, but just lets you select things on your screen.

Thanks a lot.

Do you alreaddy know when the release after this one will be?

Its hard to give an accurate estimate of when each software release will be available. My best estimate is that the release after the next one will be early June. Hope that gives you an idea.

Sorry, there wasn't time to get it finished for the last release. Its currently a half finished feature.

A new release will be available next month and I will try to get it included. I will update this post and send you a message when its ready.
