Comments:
I love this app very much but due the amount of mishits I get while using proximity, I personally find the proximity option bit unusable as the result I only use camkey option. So, I was wondering if it is possible to implement the combination of proximity and camkey as the other option rather than just the proximity like it is now. I mean this option also works on camkey half presses (similarly - short & long half presses) but also checks proximity. This will help reduce the mishits hugely if not completely. On top, its hard to find out the long or short prox without the vibration but the vibrations on mishits are really annoying. Just my thoughts..
I have mapped the proximity sensor long touch as Dashboard, and very frequently it doesn't run.
Once restarted Shortcutd (by entering the setup menu and exiting) it begins to work again.
I also think that the behaviour of the proximity sensor is not consistent with the focus button. If I do a long press in the focus button for, let's say launch phone, I don't need to stop pressing to launch the application, it starts after 2 seconds approximately. But with the proximity sensor I have to quit my finger in exactly the time to get the expected result which, by the way, is quite difficult.
It's made the use of N900 lot easier.. perfect!
