Hello World,
I would love to have my old mouse cursor. So how do I go about changing that one back to an arrow from the nearly invisible hollow circle it is now?

Request:
A mod to the Sense textinput box to move the cursor left/right if the user swipes left/right over the textbox
Why:
The DesireHD doesn't have a trackball or D-pad, the stock HTC keyboard adds arrow keys to make up for this, but if you don't use that keyboard you have to be very precise with your finger or wait for the magnifier to pop up. Even then it can be very hard to move the cursor to either edge of the box.
I don't think any action is currently performed on swiping across the textbox so this shouldn't get in the way of anything.

Is Swype included with this device? I mean from factory?

I don't think he is talking about swype. He is just asking for a mod that will move the cursor left and right by swiping left and right through the textinputbox.
The HTC IME mod keyboard has a setting for using the volume rocker to move the cursor...
maybe it's an easy hack to do the same thing for swype?
how did the EVO folks survive without a trackball/trackpad for so long?
After the recent update the trackpad has reverted to its original setting, I must admit I preferred the trackpad mirroring finger use on the screen moving your fingers upwards to push the screen upwards, and swiping down to move the screen down has on the screen. Getting rid of the flakey pinch to zoom, and the option to use mouse pointer instead of gesture pointer is welcome. Keyboard lag greatly reduced.
I am pretty sure the gestures have been reverted back to save any backlash from apple, My Macbook pro pushes the screen up using upward motion on the trackpad, also the physical design of the keyboard dock from above closely mirrors the MBP.
Is there an option to use the trackpad in either direction as I cannot see one in settings?

I'm not sure if it affects the scrolling direction, but there is an option under Keyboard & Input to change the mouse pointer. I'd play with that.
Yes done that and changed mouse pointer back to arrow instead of circle. There is no option for track pad screen movement.
appologies your right, just have to live with the circle curser in gesture mode
So I was wondering, how can one configure the lefthand and righthand menus to pop up faster, and without going into the corner of the screen? Ideally, I want to be able to touch anywhere on the screen edge to activate those menus. And if at all possible, I'd like to move the multitasking UI to the top of the screen instead of on the left. Thanks =]
Wouldn't it get in the way if all you had to do was move the mouse to the edge of the screen? Scroll bars would be pretty impossible to use...
I don't really have any problems with its speed. Do you know that if you move the cursor to a corner and directly up/down, the Charms/Multitasking bar will appear almost instantly? It doesn't wait for you, if you're quick.
Hi
I used to use Gravity box to put cursor keys in the navigation bar but after the 'upgrade' to Lollipop, Xposed doesn't work. Are there any other ways to get cursor arrow keys in the navigation bar? I've got swiftkey which add arrow keys to the keyboard but the keyboard itself isn't a patch on the Google one.
Thanks
Hi,
I bout Lenovo tb300fu tab and althout I love it, typing on it has become a daily frustration. The downward arrow that appears to hide the keyboard gets tapped accidently and consistently so. When the tablet is held in portrait orientation, the palm's inside surface lands exactly above the arrow and causes taps if the hand is relaxed as it should be. The screen is too near
To the edges and the UI geniuses at lenovo didn't notice that the palm can tap and hide the keyboard while typing. Is there a way to remove or move this arrow to the middle . I tried the floating keyboard but the arrow still stays at the lower left corner. It is killing me . Please help.
Thnx
