Must admit I kind of like that idea myself, would be tricky though as our displays are somewhat limited don't forget

Absolutely, it would be in the braille options, and each application that would offer such a message could be told to use or not use the message. For example, an option in the keymail setup menu would be something like "global status messages? on/off". The option in the braille options menu would force all messages off, even if an application had its messages enabled.


Have a great day,

Interesting. However, I think that such a feature should be optional, particularly if you do not use email on the bn. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alex Hall" <[email protected]>

Hi all,

I was wondering how you all feel about a simple, though radical, alteration to keysoft's method of providing information. While there is no SDK so I cannot implement this, I want to know how this thought will be received. Here it is: use the right-most few cells of the display to show messages from other applications. If we were able to download emails in the backbround, for example, these right-most cells might display "x/y", where x is how many emails have been downloaded and y is the total to get. Clicking the touch cursor over any cell in this message would switch you to keymail.
Thoughts?


Have a great day,
Alex
