Multitouch trackpad needs further development

I've been using the new glass trackpad for a month. It's quite remarkable, it can do so many different things. But it also makes many mistakes in interpreting what I do with my fingers. I have the preferences set for touch clicking and dragging (but not drag lock). Sometimes, it doesn't do what it's supposed to do. Sometimes it selects things when it's shouldn't. Sometimes it doesn't click when it should. Sometimes it drags when I don't want it to and messes things up and creates errors.
After being careful with my fingers and testing things deliberately and carefully, I've concluded that the current trackpad software needs further development, because too often it misinterprets my finger gestures. Sometimes it fails to distinguish between alternative interpretations of finger taps and motions and chooses the wrong one.
I could simply turn off touch-related features, but that's really not a good alternative because clicking and dragging by depressing the trackpad requires too much effort for comfort.
I hope Apple soon develops an upgrade to OS 10.6 that improves the trackpad's touch-feature performance.

Aremkay: Take your machine in for evaluation and possible repair. Your trackpad isn't working properly. Mine and many other people's work just fine.

    Well... this is a month old not sure will this be too late. Basically I suggest you do some study and reading into relational database and combine with OO programming (if you got time, study UML too),
    if you understand how to draw a relation database tables (doesn't have to be database, you can save data into txt/xml...etc) you pretty much know how to implement your application

  • Multitouch trackpad drivers...

    Hi there,
    I've seen several posts about it but don't know what to do: the latest multitouch trackpad updates cause blue screen crashes (applemtp.sys is mentioned) on my BootCamp XP. Is there a known workaround to avoid this? I don't want to go back to the old drivers.
    I've tried following some of the tips suggested on websites that mentioned this problems but they didn't help; I tried disabling the "Apple Multitouch Mouse" driver but after a while got the blue screen again...
    Any chance anyone knows how to solve this? ... or better yet: any chance of getting a fix from APPLE???
    Thanks.

    Hi CV,
    Oracle Application Development Framework Mobile (ADF Mobile) browser is a standards-based framework that enables the rapid development of enterprise mobile applications. Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g release 1 of ADF Mobile browser extends Oracle ADF to browsers running on mobile devices. Because ADF Mobile browser is built upon the component model of Java Server Faces (JSF), you can quickly develop applications for mobile browsers. ADF Mobile browser's mobile-specific extensions to JSF enable you to develop mobile applications using the same methodologies for developing JSF applications for the desktop.

  • Need to develop this report plezzzz help

    the requirement says
    When a user submits an ID they have to choose who sold the product from the sold by field.This has to be chosen correctly otherwise there will be issues in sales and commission process.I need to develop a report to detect immediately when an Id is created which seems to be suspect.A suspect ID is one in which a salesperson was chosen on a customer who is not assigned to that sales person territory
    for example: if danny is in Kathy territory is assigned to a customer in Texas which is Larry territory.
    any suggestions will be helpful for me...

    You ask for help, yet all you give is conceptual data. How do you expect help on writing the report?
    Q) What defines "territory"? Is it a flag? Zip code? City?
    Here is an answer based on a lot of assumptions:
    I would have to assume that territory is defined by something like city, state, or zip code. If so, you could start with this:
    When a customer submits an ID, along with who he/she selects as a salesperson -- I assume this is a drop down box to eliminate multiple entries of the same person due to variations in spelling -- thep person's address, city, state and zip are included as well. Let's assume that territory is defined by zip code. With the salesperson's name and the zip of the customer captured, you have the basis for comparison.
    Based on the table of all your salespeople and their territory (zip code in my assumption), you can create a report that contains a concatenated field of salesperson||zip code. This will produce a report with all possible combinations of salesperson and territory. This report will be your sub-query.
    Now you have your main query based on the customer activity table and you create a concatenated field of salesperson (chosen-by-customer)||zip code (of the customer). You will put a filter on this concatenated column and have it based on the results of another request (your sub-query) with the operand "not equal to/not in."
    If any record in the main query does not match an entry from the sub-query, that record will display. It will be a report that contains customers who chose a sales person who doesn't have that territory.
    That's how you build your report.

  • Need to develop a help system

    I need to develop a help system for a Client-Server Oracle Form Application.
    Can any one suggest any good packages to develop Help system?
    Does any one tried Oracle Help for Java (OHJ)?
    Please let me know your recommendations and opinions, thanks.

    Two methods.
    One generate a HTML file and use the Web.Show_Document to display the help file.
    Two use shareware like 'Help Workshop' which can be found at www.cnet.com.

  • Need to develop a feature which is similar to calendar app (Repeat:Weekly, Monthly etc) type.

    How to develop a view mentioned in the above screen shots (I have got above screens from the calendar app)? Just like above I should show label on the right side and value will be left side. After selecting value, it should redirect to another view(with multiple options) upon selecting one option it should come back to previous screen automatically. Can some one provide me the solution, I need to develop same kind of feature in my project. My project is related to travelling, left side I have to show trip label, right side default value will be recent trip, after selecting this recent trip it should redict to other view, there we will have many past and present trips. Upon selecting one option, he should come back automatically. Thanks in advance.

  • Macbook Pro 4,1 (Early 2008) Multitouch Trackpad Update Issues

    I've searched around the discussions and haven't seen any other posts, any input would be greatly appreciated.
    I have the last MacbookPro model before the unibody model came out, so it's got a three finger multitouch trackpad and a trackpad button.
    Before the unibody model came out, the trackpad was fine, but after the trackpad update for multitouch trackpads I've found a couple of issues.
    When I click (both tap and button) on any stacks in my dock, they open, but when I click it again it should close, but does not respond to multiple clicks. I have to move somewhere else on the screen instead.
    Also, before the trackpad update, the zoom in/out pinch gesture worked in the finder. With any window you had open, you could change the size of the icons or zoom in and out of the thumbnails and the previews in cover flow view. After the trackpad update, these gestures no longer work.
    Has anyone else experienced these quirks?
    Thanks.

    So a bit of an update-
    After doing some more searching, this discussion popped up
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8633568&#8633568
    and the problem with multitouch gestures for finder windows has been solved
    the zoom using trackpad option has been moved to the finder menu inside of preferences>advanced.
    I think that I also figured out what was wrong with my trackpad with regards to clicking. For some reason, every time I restart my computer, the double click speed defaults to really slow. Anyone else have this issue?

  • Adobe needs to develop an api for communicating with HTML Overlays & Indesign Objects

    I'm a front-end developer who has been assigned the task of developing one of our client's DPS every month. While I praise Adobe for saving a dying a industry and giving non-developers simple GUI controls, they need to develop an api for communicating from HTML Overlays to Indesign MSOs and other objects.
    I've had to do some intense animations/pages; which I in turn simply developed all in HTML5 and did an overlay. The time put into those pages could have been greatly reduced if their was a proper API in place to trigger different MSO and events. Is anybody at Adobe working on this? As DPS matures, and more developers are tasked with making folios it's imperative we have a proper way way to develop.

    We had a page for embedded movies in a lightbox; the client said customers were complaining that the folios were too large and took too long to download. So we switched to youtube streaming page, but they wanted a poster and autoplay enabled. If you have ever programmed with mobile video, you'll know devices are extremely difficult to manipulate.
    I had to do an html overlay with a bunch of transparent divs for hotspots and buttons. If I could have told Indesign to move different objects layer orders or go to a different MSO it would have saved me hours.
    Doesn't DPS support localstorage? Couldn't you guys whip up a little api to trigger events via localstorage?
    Off topic, another request:
    - enable the safari webkit inspector for debugging connected ipads with folios that have html overlays; you guys don't fully support HTML5 or certain js events and it's extremely annoying and difficult to debug.

If .NET, then have fun with Visual Studio and find yourself a .NET forum because this isn't it. If you're going to want to do this with Java, then go to the Sun tutorial site, find the getting started section, and start following those directions. Don't worry about the GPS and blackberry stuff for a good 3-12 months, depending on your current knowledge and abilities.
