How about unistallation?
I cant find anything..

Re: [ANN] Cyclotron - CLI tools to cycle between app windows
 

well. it's very complicated process. you should open settings, go to applications and open applications management menu (it's the most complicated). then you should ask your friend to find cyclotron in huge list of installed application (alone you will spend about 10 hours, just ask friends to find it in about 1 hour), then click on it and find Uninstall button. It hides sometimes, just ask button to appear. remember - N9 is SMART phone, so it watching and listening you all the time. Good luck and be careful!

apt-get remove cyclotron

Hahhaa! This made my day

Re: [ANN] Cyclotron - CLI tools to cycle between app windows
 

Threads with no full installation-uninstallation guides
Apps that can f*ck your phone if you install them together
No serious backup tool like ios & android

Sorry but i would like to ask first, shoot later
Anyway, thanks for your time boy :)

Well, I think backupping Harmattan is EASIER than iOS or Android... maye it depends on what and how you want to backup?

All the shortcuts had a green icon until I opened the .desktop and found out the .png has to be copied to /usr/share/icons/hicolor/80x80/apps/

Thanks. This package is great and the "Next" and "Previous" scripts allow me to use MyMoves to switch without using the volume buttons.

Like this hack very much, really makes using N9 that much more awesome. However, I have a question - if I remember correctly - in one of the early versions, the cycling area was at the bottom of the screen and a line was displayed. I actually think that area was better - not necessarily with that line visible, cause now, every now and then instead of cycling it opens top menu or sometimes freezes for a few seconds. Would it be possible to add a toggle option somewhere to choose between old and new cycling area?

Re: [ANN] Cyclotron - CLI tools to cycle between app windows
 

As far as I know, there was never a Cyclotron (at least from me) with a cycling area at the bottom. The status bar as cycling area has been chosen because it makes it easy to integrate into existing apps (libmeegotouch / Qt Components take care of handling events on that area).

In other words: All applications are really full-screen on MeeGo Harmattan, and the toolkit (libmeegotouch for most built-in applications and Qt Quick Components for some built-in applications and most third party apps) is used to display the status bar inside that fullscreen window. The toolkit is also responsible for handling touch events on the area, and that's where Cyclotron hooks in and adds the swipe left/right gesture handling (see the patches on the Cyclotron website for how simple / naive this really is implemented) - we can't really do that with the bottom area that easily.

Of course, one option would definitely be to implement this in the compositor (mcompositor, i.e. the application that manages all the windows), but the "Swipe" plugin to the compositor (that handles all swipe gestures for the window starting from the screen edges) is closed source, and as far as I know, the most recent versions (as shipped with PR1.3) of it don't include the necessary hooks anymore (that e.g. SwipeManager used; and even there only the pre-defined actions could be defined, no external command/D-Bus signal).

If the Swipe plugin was open, I could imagine a Cyclotron where you could swipe left and right to directly go between applications (see this video @ 02:35 for how this works on a Blackberry Playbook).

thp Thanks for this great app,i know you've answered it already :
" In other words: All applications are really full-screen on MeeGo Harmattan, and the toolkit (libmeegotouch for most built-in applications and Qt Quick Components for some built-in applications and most third party apps) is used to display the status bar inside that fullscreen window. "
But what about those that they don't display status bar such as : documents,notes etc...? They just don't work with this mod?
Also it doesn't work for me with ''Settings'' anyone else have this problem?
Thanks.
