[SOFT] LMT Launcher - Multitouch gesture launcher - MAJ 0.6 12/03/2010

LMT Launcher V0.6



Our own resident hacker, l3v5y, who was instrumental in figuring out the multi-touch implementation in the HTC HD2, allowing the implementation of multi-touch controls in Morphgear and other emulators for example, is currently hard at work on his next great app – LMT launcher.

LMT is a very simple application at present – all it does is look out for a specific multi-touch gesture on the HTC HD2’s screen, in this case a downward swipe with 2 fingers, and run an application.

However, even at this basic level, it already solves a major problem with the HTC HD2 – the lack of mappable buttons, and allows for the very efficient use of an application like TaskFacade, the great Windows Mobile task switcher (which came along years before the Pre btw).

The software is not quiet ready for release yet, and l3v5y intends to add further gestures such as rotation for example, so keep an eye on WMPoweruser.com for further developments.






0.6
- fixed bug in gesture engine (sometimes wrong touch value
assignments
for mt gestures)
- added tap and hold feature for mt
gestures. Activate it via reg key
"TapAndHoldGestureSupport".
-
value = 1 -> activated with default bounding box for tap area
(width
and height = 30 pixel)
- value > 1 -> activated with user
defined bounding box in pixel
- added four new internal commands:
-
PrevApp -> switch to previous app (Alt-Tab feature)
- NextApp
-> switch to next app (Alt-Tab feature)
- Home -> switch to
Homescreen
- Rotate -> rotate screen
- added BlackListSwitch to
be able to exclude processes from
TaskSwitcher
- added default
values for all gestures

0.5
- enabled compressed cab
- all reg values can be modified during runtime
- back command now supports Opera Back & normal back behavior
- removed BlackListStart and added BlackListAll to be able to disable
LMT completely for a fg app (e.g. Morphgear)
- removed hard coded gesture commands. All internal commands can be
mapped to any gesture now. Just add the following strings to the gesture
in the registry for an internal command:
- CloseLMT -> closes LMT
- CloseApp -> closes the fg app
- Learn -> activates learn mode
- Back -> sends back key
- Start -> Start menu
- Lock -> Lock phone
- Phone -> Phone app
- Up -> sends Dpad up
- Down -> sends Dpad down
- Left -> sends Dpad left
- Right -> sends Dpad right

0.4
- added gwes.exe to default BlackListClose
- added Opera9 & Opera10 to WhiteListBack
- improved overlay code
- added parameter support for program launcher. Just add program
parameter after a comma, e.g. "\Windows\tmail.exe,-RunInBKG"
- found bug in ipc mechanism (now 2 times faster!)
- added single touch gesture support (see attached new gestures). To
activate support, set reg value SingleTouchGestureSupport to "1" and
restart LMT

0.3
- reworked internal debug mode (better gesture testing now)
- better gesture recognition (correct value swapping)
- added LMT to autostart
- added default BlackListClose for manila.exe and shell32.exe
- set MultiTouchDemo to "0" when closing LMT

0.2
- fixed setting MultiTouchDemo to "1" via LMT. Hope that works now :-)
- added blacklist support for Close gesture. Just add a multistring "BlackListClose" with the full path to each process to exclude (no default values yet)
- added blacklist support for Start gesture. Just add a multistring "BlackListStart" with the full path to each process to exclude (no default values yet)
- added whitelist support for Back command on DoubleLineLeft gesture (e.g. Opera). Just add a multistring "WhiteListBack" with the full path to each process to include (no default values yet)
