Hi

Thank you for this awesome app, its easily my most used one.
I would like to request (if possible) to launch it via a keyboard shortcut (or one of the n900 buttons) that way it could be like quicksilver/gnome-do app launcher!


thx again

T hank you for this app!

-when i tap icon or widget btw. why widget? i would like to get feedback that i have really clicked it.
-it would be better if startup is instant. maybe to show dialog and load prog list after that.

simpler than an applicationYes I am working on a way to speed up the loading of
the application list.

Hi nicolai

thx

Now if I open quickly, before it was a bit slow.

Thank you for the job.

A question ... Could trickle as the application can be selected without having to touch the screen? Only keyboard.

Re: App Search Widget
 

The new version is pretty fast.
I would like to suggest a feature as well and I guess some of them have already been mentioned earlier in different ways
1. Since we are using the keyboard either ways, it will be better if we can select the filtered application using arrow keys (Up or Down) and selecting enter key.
2. A possibility to add speed App selection option example assign 1 for calculator, 2 for web browser, 3 for Alarm/Clock, etc

Thanks.

Re: App Search Widget
 

As far as I know, it isn't possible to react on keyboard events.
The hildon desktop is responsible for handling keyboard shortcuts,
shift+control+x to start XTerm for example. All other keys
are used for the contact search for the phone dialoer only :-(
