I would like to make a few suggestions for additional feature that I think would make the app much more useful: 1. The ability to copy and/or move items from one list to another. 2. The ability to add custom recipes to your favorites. 3. The ability to email lists or recipes to others. Thanks in advance, Darren Bruce McL on "A little slow, comments about gestures" http://www.hollowire.com/forums/topic.php?id=12#post-33 Fri, 28 Aug 2009 01:52:04 +0000 Bruce McL 33@http://www.hollowire.com/forums/ I'm sorry, but this product is slow on my mT3G. I wish it wasn't, but it is. I notice it most if I call up a resource intensive app by using a gesture. I've got the animations turned off, and I run a fairly lean system. I don't think there is much more I can do to speed things up. To put this in perspective, I have tried many of the home replacement programs (one at a time, of course, to keep the phone from slowing down) and there is only one that performs as well or better then the standard home screen - that's dxTop. But the screen to screen navigation on that app is too strange for me. Your navigation area at the bottom of the screen is excellent. Today I turned on the swipe to unlock feature of my phone and you know, I think that is easier to use than the gestures in your app. It's more constrained, but that's not a bad thing. The dots on screen make it easy to remember patterns and easy to see if you are doing the pattern right. Did you consider just calling up that code from your app? The code is free and open source, right? Why not? I bet it would run a lot faster than what you have going on now. Certainly not as elegant, but perhaps good enough for the purpose, and seemingly a lot less processor intensive. Despite the slowness, I will keep using Open Gestures for a while. I look forward to whatever you do to improve this product. Bruce McL on "I want the naked gestures" http://www.hollowire.com/forums/topic.php?id=11#post-32 Wed, 26 Aug 2009 21:45:47 +0000 Bruce McL 32@http://www.hollowire.com/forums/ The two most important, most accessible gestures in Open Gesture are the ones that are not covered up by the gestures area. I'm talking about the up swipe and the down swipe that work before the gestures area is brought up. Right now you have decided what the up swipe will be. I have no choice but to accept your decision. On the down swipe, I have some choices. The choices I have are different than the choices I get for other gestures, and not as complete. I want to put my own apps, or shortcuts, or whatever, on these two most convenient gestures. What is wrong with that? It shouldn't be hard for you to program this. You can list the two gestures with all the rest in the manage gestures area with some sort of special notation. You should probably make it impossible to delete them as well. I don't think you really need the settings and device health screens. Maybe they make beginners happy, maybe not. Turn them into apps or widgets and let them slug it out in the Android Market with everybody else's apps and widgets that do the same thing. Have yours installed and selected by default in OG if you want, I don't care about that. I just want to have my way with your uncovered gestures. klagan on "Lose the navigation bar" http://www.hollowire.com/forums/topic.php?id=10#post-29 Sun, 16 Aug 2009 21:11:36 +0000 klagan 29@http://www.hollowire.com/forums/ How's about you lose the navigation bar and change the down swipe to show the gesture screen and the up swipe to show the applications. The graphics employed here - in my view - make the UI tacky. Real estate is wasted on a widget that shows which screen you are on. This can be done in SO many more subtle and less intrusive ways. Dropping the navigation bar would allow your UI to look clean. Because of the gestures - which is the killer tool - I don't need any shortcuts on my desktop anymore. In fact, I don't even need virtual desktops. I know this is my preference, but surely these options could be defined by the user in the preferences screen. codemonkey on "Manage Gestures - Edit = Force close" http://www.hollowire.com/forums/topic.php?id=9#post-18 Wed, 12 Aug 2009 13:52:40 +0000 codemonkey 18@http://www.hollowire.com/forums/ Using the Manage Gestures functionality, whenever I attempt to Edit an existing gesture the app force closes. codemonkey on "Themes?" http://www.hollowire.com/forums/topic.php?id=8#post-17 Wed, 12 Aug 2009 13:51:39 +0000 codemonkey 17@http://www.hollowire.com/forums/ Really happy that the initial install didn't discard my current wallpaper, however I've just tried to apply an Open Home theme (one of the Prodigal Son themes). This made no changes at all. Is this a bug, or are Open Home themes not supported? codemonkey on "Bluetooth 'Dial' setting change" http://www.hollowire.com/forums/topic.php?id=5#post-14 Wed, 12 Aug 2009 12:28:17 +0000 codemonkey 14@http://www.hollowire.com/forums/ Hi -- Is it possible to change the bluetooth dial quadrant to toggle bluetooth on / off directly (as with wireless)? At the moment it takes you to the Wireless Settings menu, meaning that it takes 2 clicks to toggle the setting.

It is rather pretty - but can not be run in conjunction with Open Gestures - which is far better for functionality and making the Android & the phone a delight of a device to use. TouchFlo = pretty Open Gestures = functional Style over substance. Please can you get them to work together? Or tell me how to make that happen? I am reviewing them at the moment. Thanks Kam
