twincamsham Posted September 4, 2009 Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 This may be a ridiculous question but how are you people navigating on the main test window of the f900 in test mode?? to upload maps i need to be able to copy and paste the exe files which is surely not possible without a right click function... I connected a mouse to the female usb in but nothing happened, i spose there is no on screen pointer for anything to happen, do i need to actrivate this first, iv searched google for half an hour on this topic so as not to have to make an ass of myself here but unfortunatly i have to ask! please let me know twincamsham@hotmail.com merci beaucoup Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If you enable the pop-up keyboard, you can also select 'ctrl' to enable multiple file selection. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
twincamsham Posted September 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 Ok thanks for the reply What sort of stylus exactly is required, iv been trying to use a plastic pen and my screen is not responding to it at all, this is a new unit, maybe i need to clean the screen and re calibrate it... but yes on the smaller icons no response at all, i can open the larger icons with a double tap but it takes a good few goes as usually just starts them flashing to be re-named. i cant remember if a stylus came in the box from new but i dont think i have it anymore if it did, anyone recomend a suitable product for making a stylus, thanks again in advance Quote Link to post Share on other sites
miotoo Posted September 6, 2009 Report Share Posted September 6, 2009 On my F500 the double-click is VERY slow, more like click-stop-click... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Riverman Posted September 6, 2009 Report Share Posted September 6, 2009 Ok thanks for the reply What sort of stylus exactly is required? Since you say it's new, you should have a stylus in the box. If not, your plastic-tipped pen should work fine, but I think a lot of us have had to calibrate the screen before it will work worth anything. I couldn't get mine to register a screen press on anything in testmode until I calibrated it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
