Does the TM2 tablet mode need some buttons?

TM2 is my first tablet and so far I love it.
One of the reasons I wanted a tablet is because I spend a lot of time post processing photos using GIMP.
It didn't occur to me before but now I have the device I realise there is no easy way to access the shift and control keys when in tablet mode. Obvious I know, but I just didn't consider it, just was concentrating on how much easier it would be to draw on a tablet with a pen rather than using a mouse with my desktop.
The shift and control keys (and ALT key comes to that) are often used to modify the behaviour of the GIMP tools . To ensure lines are drawn straight for example.
Seems to me that this would be general requirement for most tablet applications so wonder why no buttons to simulate these keys?
More importantly, anyone know of a workaround?

    I made a bootable disc on an external hard drive, with Yosemite on it.  I am running Snow Leopard on my iMac.  How can I open the Yosemite disc from the desktop on my iMac?  Does the external hard drive need to be connected to my iMac by firewire to do that?

    Snow Leopard's Startup Disk pref can’t see Yosemite volumes. So the only way to switch from Snow Leopard to Yosemite is to do what Niel mentioned. Doesn't matter whether it's connected by USB or Firewire, although performance via FW would be faster.
    Are you saying that Yos/10.10, as a volume located in a mounted external drive won't appear as an option in Snow Leopard's Startup Disc, in Sys Prefs? I've never heard this one before. AFAIK any mounted volume, regardless of OS, should appear there. I would think that, if it appears in the Boot Picker/Startup Manager it would also appear and could be booted to from Snow's Startup Disk. I can't test this myself, since I don't have Yos. Is what you are saying documented somewhere?

  • Does the iPhone 5 really need a case?

    Does the iPhone 5 really need a case? ive been reading articles that says it doesn't, opinions please...

    In that case (no pun intended), you may not need one. I agree, it does look and feel better without the case.  I bought a clear case so it still shows off the design, but the problem is the case itself scratches easily.
    It's your call. But I would say, if you are not worried about dropping the phone (with AppleCare+, a replacement is only $49 as you may know), you do not absolutely need a case.

  • Why does the flash player work on some website but not others??

    I have the new flash player, and for the most part the player will work on some web sites. However I like to be on myspace and it says that I have to install the new version of the flash player. However I ALREADY have the new verison. There are other site that I go to as well and it tells me the same thing. what is going on and how can I fix it. I am at my wits ends right now and I dont know what to do. Can any one help me please

    I had the same issue when I had created Flash Paper items. I had found the a solution on my opinion.
    http://www.eolsoft.com/freeware/flash_movie_player/
    you actually need a Flash Movie Player and not Flash Player. they are different. the only issue is that Adobe does not support this anymore.
    so what I did is placed the EXE file of Flash Movie Player found on the link above on my server, made a note to my viewers that Flash Movie Player is required to view the documents.
    I found this solutlion when my boss asked why he could not view any of the Flash Paper Documents

  • How does the SSAS storage mode (MOLAP/ROLAP/HOLAP) fits into the BI Semantic Model?

    Hi there,
    I've been reading some posts and whitepapers about the BI Semantic Model (BISM) but there is something that is a bit unclear to me.
    If we imagine Venn diagrams, how does the concept of BISM fits along the storage modes, such as MOLAP, HOLAP and ROLAP? How does these two concepts work together?
    Are they completely independent from the other, or do they overlap somehow? Can I have 
    Regards,
    P.

    BISM is just a marketing term referring to any type of Analysis Services model. What is more important is Multidimensional models can have three storage modes: MOLAP, ROLAP, or HOLAP. Tabular models can have two storage modes: In-Memory or DirectQuery.

  • Does the ipod touch itself need wifi in order to use find my iphone??

    My ipod touch 4g got stolen and i have find my iphone turned on but my question is does the ipod itself need wifi to track it down??  I've tried so many times i played sound, i have a passcode lock on it, i even sent a message to my ipod... But i try to locate it, it says it's offline.it down?? if so there's no way to point to try to find it Right??

    Change your iTunes (Apple ID) password along with any other password that was stored in the iPod.  If any passwords are associated with credit cards, contact the CC company and get your card replaced (with a new number).  If any passwords are associated with a bank or any other savings institution, contact them also and discuss approprate action with them.
    The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief.  All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
    The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself.  This requires action before the device is lost/stolen.  If the device has significant personal information, it should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

  • Works in Main Application mode but not the orange NXT mode for some NXT's

    A simple Labview program designed using only NXT VI's worked  in the Main Application but not in NXT mode.  For some NXT's it  worked in both modes but for others, just in Main Application mode. I've tried  updating the firmware and plugging and unplugging the USB.  Any thoughts?

    I see. The problem is probably that when you are switching to the NXT Target mode, it is expecting to target the other brick to which you already deployed. If you right-click on the orange banner menu in the lower left corner, you should be able to select the other NXT, or use "Find NXT..." to scan/search for bricks.
    Also, I reccommend giving all your NXTs unique names so this is more obvious. (you can use the NXT Terminal tool to do that).
    If you still can't get the VI to run in target mode, restart labview.

  • Why Why does the voice dictation only work some applications

    Why does the voice command on my iPhone only work in certain applications

    In the end, it's up to the app's developer to add or not those features. And also why there is a ratings and review system for each submission to the App Store. If you think an app should include support for some specific iOS technology (such as Voiceover), let the developer know.
    And of course, there's another filter. Apple wants all iPhone apps to have a uniform operations look and feel. So they publish a guide to iOS Human Interface Guidelines, and expect developers to follow. They give some leeway, but if an app grossly violates them, it does not make it into the store. Here's a link to the Guidelines: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual /MobileHIG/Introduction/Introduction.html

  • Does the ipod universal dock need power?

    I have an ipod universal dock which I'm trying to connect to a video projector using s-video. Do I need to supply power to the universal dock in order to view videos from my 30GB ipod? onto my projection screen.

    Hi,
    I do not have the universal dock, so I am not 100% sure, if from what I read from the following link
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300251#tv
    It seems that you do not need the power supply to the universal dock, however, if you want to use the remote control of the dock, then you need to connect it either via a computer or iPod ac charger

  • Does the AEBS have or need a firewall?

    I know if you hook your mac directly to a cable modem, you can turn on the mac's firewall and initiate stealth settings, etc. Does the AEBS have such a thing? come someone actually see your AEBS? I have it password protected and all. Just wondered if it had a function that acted as a firewall.

    NAT or Network AddressTranslation hides the Internet Protocol address of each computer behind the router while still allowing these machines to send and receive data from the Internet. NAT is integral to safe computing, but it's not a firewall
    Many wireless routers now offer a hardwall firewall in the form of Stateful Packet Inspection Firewall (SPI). SPI monitors both incoming and outgoing packets and will block either that are not in response to a specific request.
    In my opinion NAT provides a level of security, but it is not a replacement for a firewall for users who have sensitive data on their network.

  • Starting Server in Debug Mode - Need Some Advice Plz.

    Hi Guys,
    I have an EP SP 12 Server Running and I am trying to Start the Server in Debug mode from the Netweaver Developer Studio but when I right click the Server and try to choose Debug, the option is greyed out and even while viewing the Debug option from the SAPMMC I see that under the column Debug, it say 'Disabled' for the Server and Dispatcher.
    Can anyone suggest how this can be done, I would appreciate any help as I have been working on this for some time.
    Best Wishes,
    John.

    Hi John,
    If the you cannot start the server in the debugging mode through the NWDS then you can try the other way round.
    <b>Through Config Tool:</b>
    You can enable the debuggine mode from the Config Tool as well. Just visit the following path :
    <b>C:\usr\sap\<SID>\JC<SYS_NO>\j2ee\configtool\configtool.bat</b>
    Click on the your instance. Then under the tab VM Environment, Set the <b>DebugMode = true</b>.
    Restart the engine now. This will open the J2EE server again in the Debug Mode.
    I hope this helps you!!
    Regards
    Pravesh
    PS: Please conside rewarding points if helpful and solved.

  • Why does the Downloads Save files to Browse button do nothing when pressed?

    I'm trying to download a couple of different files from a couple of different web sites. I see the "Opening {filename}" dialog box with the "Would you like to save this file?" question and the Save File button, but nothing happens when I click on the Save File button except that the dialog box closes.
    When I go into Tools/Options General tab, I select the "Save files to" button, and when I click on the Browse button to choose a directory, nothing happens.
    It appears I can no longer download files.

    Please disregard. My "My Documents" folder is mapped to a file server on the network, and for some reason the last time I logged in, I was denied access to that network resource. I logged out and logged back in again, and I am able to download successfully.
    D'oh.

  • Where does the resources bundle files need to be

    Hi All,
    Does any of you knows where all the custom resources bundle files that will be used on BCC need to be?
    I have something like this:
    BCC module /src/com/mycompany/resources/WebAppResources.properties
    But when I try to use it
    This happens
    javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: An error occurred while evaluating custom action attribute "title" with value "${activity.description}": An error occurred while getting property "description" from an instance of class atg.bizui.activity.GenericActivity (java.util.MissingResourceException: Can't find resource for bundle java.util.PropertyResourceBundle, key manageLoyaltyProgram.description)
    I am trying to use it on a activity that will be used in the ActivityManager:
    This is what I have
    <resource-bundle>com.mycompany.resources.WebAppResources</resource-bundle>
