Are there any settings for the proximity sensor? To the best of my knowledge the proximity sensor is not currently being used in any way on Touch. During the beta phase it was attempted to do as you describe, to switch between the small and large skins and to hide and reveal buttons by using the proximity sensor. But it got overly complicated and eventually they fell back to the simple switching that you see now - if you touch the screen it will switch to the small skin with buttons. If you use the IR it will switch to the large skin with no buttons. Frankly, I like it best like this. You can override this behavior slightly in the settings by forcing the remote interface to use the small skin, and the touch interface to use the large skin (which you probably would never want to do, as all the buttons disappear and it becomes almost unusable as a touch interface). -- JJZolx Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77356 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
