gamepad app (for droidtale) issue on android 12 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi i have a problem with undertale but also others if i had to use gamepad. is a small app that virtualizes a touch pad and is often used with dosbox. from the notifications you should press to display the pad but android 12 does not display this thing. the only way is to use "launch on exit" of another app called gamekeyboard + at that point the keyboard comes out in transparency and if undertale is already open then you can see it with the home keys open (closed the home / back / menu menu also closes the keyboard)

How to copy/paste with dock/trackpad?

I know on the the tablet, I just long press on the screen to choose the text. Is there a way to do it with just the trackpad and/or mouse?
Hold down button on trackpad.
That worked but I can't seem to get Ctrl + C to work in a browser.

That is not a shortcut that works.
You have to remember, Android is made for touch. When you hook up the dock, the trackpad basically plays the role of your finger.
Just plugging in the dock doesn't make the Prime a normal laptop- instead it is a tablet with its bluetooth keyboard solidly attached. True "transforming" tablets that convert from a mobile OS to a real OS when docked are years away.
Honestly I think its cool Asus rigged the shortcuts we do have.
Control+V for pasting.....oi

found a great way to select text
Press alt the drag across screen where you want to select. I find it easier and more intuitive than double tap then select.

or you can select by hovering the "arrow" over the text/word you want to copy, then touch the touchpad with 2fingers (long hold), the text/word will be selected.

Standard keyboard shortcuts work fine with Android as long as you have a keyboard.
CTRL - A (Select all)
CTRL - V (Paste)
CTRL - C (Copy)
CTRL - X (Cut)
All of these work fine in Android, and within the Android browser. I just tested this myself with my own Prime & keyboard dock. You can also use the Menu button in place of the CTRL button.
Also in the stock browser:
CTRL - T opens a new tab.
CTRL - N opens a new tab.
CTRL - I zooms in.
CTRL - O zooms.
CTRL - H opens history
CTRL - P opens settings.
CTRL - L highlights the address bar text
CTRL - B opens bookmarks.
CTRL - J opens recent downloads
CTRL - F opens text finder
CTRL - W closes selected tab
CTRL - R reloads current tab
CTRL - S opens the "share" menu.
CTRL - 1 goes to the first tab (other numbers open other tabs, in order from left to right.)
All of these are keyboard shortcuts included in the stock Android browser and are not added by Asus. They are intended to work with products like Google TV which uses a keyboard interface, as well as bluetooth keyboards and phones that have built-in keyboards.
For the OP:
If you find it hard to select text by clicking on the screen and holding, using the trackpad, click at the beginning or end of the text you want to copy and then hold shift and move across the text using the arrow keys. This will highlight the text and then you can use the keyboard shortcuts above to cut/copy/paste.

Mapping softkeys to keyboard

Hey guys,
I have an mk808b htpc stick, and a wireless mini keyboard & mouse combo. Is there any app out there that will let me map physical keys to soft keys\shortcuts?
Meaning, my f1 key can be the home button, f2 the back button etc...and if i want to launch settings I can use f7.. I have done multiple searches, but I must be doing it wrong, because all I find is talk about modifying IME keyboard for custom icons etc.
Thanks,
M

[Q] Repurposing Home Button to show Notification Menu?

Dear Androidsters
I'm very much enjoying my Samsung Galaxy Note (running stock Android 4.1.2, rooted), and it's waaay better than all my previous 11 palmtop computers put together.
I have four apps which effectively make my Notification Menu into my app launching mechanism [1], since I find this to be quicker and more efficient than the default Home Screens paradigm. I have explored using various app-launching Home Screen replacement apps (such as GO Launcher EX, 3D Home, etc., &c., all of which stick to using the Home Screens paradigm), but I much prefer to use the Notification Menu to launch apps.
Android is justly famous for its 'Customise Everything!' abilities, but search as I may, I cannot find a way of customising a single press on the Home Button. The final finesse would be that, in any and every situation (including when apps are running full screen, where the Notification Bar method of accessing the Notification Menu is absent), a single press on the Home Button shows the Notification Menu instead of the Home Screen (or whichever replacement app-launching Home Screens app it currently launches).
So does anybody know of a customising utility app which will allow me to remap a single press on the Home Button to show the Notification Menu?
Thanks in advance for your help.
[1] Four apps which effectively make my Notification Menu into my app launching mechanism:
Simple Shortcut Panel, Launch From Notification, Settings Extended, and Notification Toggle
There is a way but I know little about button mapping, ask some app developers, they'll probably know.

How to open in app menu?

Hi all. It may seem a silly question and probably it is but there are apps (in this case Touchdown mail client) that haven't an icon to open the in app settings menu. With my previous phones I used a physical button, usually long press on the back button, to open it. But how to do it with the single button p9000? Thank you.
Very good question, they seem to have forgotten about apps that need a physical key for menu, have you tried enabling the softkeys to see if the menu button appears on them for you? Can the "Smart Button" not be setup to be the menu key? or is it only to open apps? I not played with it myself..
Still searching how to have the MENU inside applications, softkeys does not work !
I would ask the software maker! The phone maker won't add more physical buttons.
And multiple press are always software driven!
Even if the phone maker did, that won't help you out with the old hardware...
Doesn't seem to be an answer anywhere online so here goes:
Go to settings > Navigation bar > Turn On.
Go to app you need a menu on > swipe up from bottom to bring up the Nav bar.
Three dots appear on the end of the nav bar. Done.
If the three dots don't appear; click on the recent tasks button and then go back into the app and they should come up.
Tried and tested with EZ Drop.
- Doesn't seem to work with apps with the built in "three dots" menu.
I use ‘Menu Button (No root)’ by JetToast free on the Play store, to get round this problem.

Hardware keyboard/mouse custom layouts/shortcuts

Hi.
I'm using an Samsung Galaxy Note 12.2 (with ResurrectionRemix 5.8.5 ROM / Android 7.1.2) with an "Lenovo Compact Bluetooth Keyboard with Trackpoint". There are a few problems I need your help for:
1. The mouse keys are all treated as left click. I know there is no really right-click in android. But it would be fine to have custom actions on right-click and no click action at the scroll button. If you know the Lenovo/IBM Trackpoint you know it's great for scrolling. At the moment every click on the scroll button is treated as a normal click. This behavior can be very annoying.
2. Androids default keyboard shortcuts are not easy to handle. Search key (F10) + Backspace is hard to hit without looking at the keyboard. Is there a way to customize the shortcuts?
