Cancel out of Task Facade using OK button

Cancel out of Task Facade using OK button

Postby thx1200 on Tue Apr 07, 2009 5:16 am

I would like to recommend that when the user presses the OK hardware button (or the OK icon when TF is not set to Full Screen), that Task Facade should minimize. If I accidentally press my TF assigned key, it is intuitive to me to cancel by pressing OK, instead of hitting the action button to return to the app. Additionally, if the arrow keys are pressed to move the selected app, OK should NOT select the new app, but should simply cancel. It seems intuitive to me and I would greatly appreciate it if this was implemented.

BTW, TF 4 looks SOOOOO GOOD. I just upgraded finally from TF 3. :-)

As an addition, I think that if TaskFacade is open and you press it's button again, it should minimize TaskFacade.
Don't know if that is possible, but I think it could be worked out.

I wrote a small mortscript to toggle TaskFacade open/closed like how GldRush98 suggested. I run this script from a hard button on my device to show/hide TaskFacade.

Code: Select all
#
# ToggleTaskFacade - Helper script to toggle open Task Facade from a button. 
#

TF_Command = "\Program Files\TaskFacade\TaskFacade.exe"
TF_Exe = "TaskFacade.exe"
TF_Title = "TaskFacade"

# check dependencies
If ( NOT FileExists( TF_Command ) )
   Message ( "Installation of TaskFacade4 is required! Exiting...", "ToggleTaskFacade script" )
   Exit
EndIf

# start TaskFacade it it's not already running
If ( NOT ProcExists( TF_Exe ) )
   Run ( TF_Command )
   WaitFor ( TF_Title, 10 )
   if ( WndExists ( TF_Title) )
      Show ( TF_Title )
   EndIf
   Exit
EndIf

# Toggle TaskFacade
If ( WndActive ( TF_Title ) )
   Minimize ( TF_Title )
Else
   Show ( TF_Title )
EndIf
