Any fix for short press of camera to go to desktop opens camera as well?

This application could be great for me, but as it always opens the camera app as well, it is all but useless for my N900.

Is it a settings issue or something I can change? Bug? Known issue?

Any help would be appreciated. I would love to see this app work for me.

Couldn't find any rhyme or reason behind it. On reboot it works for a while. then even while the shortcutd process is still active (or rather, at least shown as running), it stops working. "killall shortcutd" starts it back up, so I put an alarmd event to run that every hour. A waste, but WFM (Works For Me).

Sigh!
Dont PUSH the Button. Try to press it more carefully. Like when you trying to take a photo. You need to focus first and then press it to take it. Or read the manual about this Button first.

While I am sorry I exasperated you, I am appreciative that I learned from your post that the button is very sensitive...

Understood now that Shortcutd means to lightly press the button to go to the desktop NOT to completely click the button to go to the desktop...

Not very active.

I've been busy with a more interesting project, and AFAIK hopbeat is also busy with other things.

But it's open source, anyone can develop it. Patches are still welcome

I don't feel like reading all 18 pages of posts right now, i hope this is the right place for this, and i apologize if this has been suggested before

I would like to have additional options, like double and tripple click, click-hold, click-click-hold, hold-click etc as additional shortcuts, and also, it would be nice to have an action to switch between the dashboard, the menu and the desktop (press while in a program or the desktop calls the dashboard, press while in the dashboard calls the menu, press while in the menu, goes to the desktop)

Could you add screenshot (ctrl+shift+p) support for either cam key or proximity sensor?

Hey, just wondering if you could add a toggle option for soft camera button press to switch between desktop and dashboard. Do you have a quick tutorial for custom shell command shortcut?
