[Patch]Browser Hold Tap Context Menu

n1ce · 08:59 AM

Hi,

this patch enables the hold tap for the browser. Stay on a link or picture in your browser and you get the context menu for this type. No orange+link anymore

--
10-24-2010 Update
Works now with patches that adds new functionality to the context menu

You find the updated version in Preware

VenpaCasa · 10/08/2010, 01:31 PM

would we have to uninstall the "gesture tap for context menu" patch?

kkhanmd · 10/08/2010, 01:56 PM

Thanks a lot, please submit it in preware.

n1ce · 10/08/2010, 02:01 PM

Just tried it with the gesture tap for context menu patch.
Uninstall is not needed.

NICE installing now

Would not install. Conflicts with my other browser patched. Reverted back to the original framework version.

Other Browser Patches:
Preware
Add Option to Send Link Message
Browser Scrollbar
GestureClick Context Menu
Multi Mod
Raise Image Resolution Limit
Shake to Reload
Share Image Message Option

Non-Preware
Browser Mega Mix (w BadKitty Relego SpareTime in app menu)

i went through my browser patches. haha, the last one was the culprit.

shake to reload --> not compatible

greenawayj · 10/22/2010, 10:41 AM

Ingenious! Just installed this today (surprisingly it was compatible with Email Megamix and Email Multimod - the 2 other Email patch I currently have installed. But I had to uninstall "shake to reload" which I wasn't 100% sure of anyway - it sometimes led to unwanted reloads)...

... is the context menu itself patch-able? I would love to see 'send link to Relego' for links. I already have the patch that will put a "Send to Relego" button in the browser app menu, but it would be great to be able to "Send to Relego" using this patch and the context menu without actually needing to open the link and then the browser app menu...

I know this is kind of a double-post but I'm not sure if everyone has both the Browser and Email versions of this patch installed.

khalid7412002 · 10/22/2010, 11:36 AM

first of all, this is a great patch and the one thing I really miss from windows mobile. Now can it be expanded to include, "share link message" like the metatap does, can it also a include "cut and paste option", maybe a "save to memo" option, some other people can chime in with their ideas. Thanks a million.

@greenawayj

The next version of Hold Tap Context Menu for browser and email will work with patches that adds new functionality to the context menu. It calls now directly the onWebViewSingleTap function, so if you manage to get the "Send to Relego" to this function it will be available.
Ask the author if he can make a version for the context menu.

I made the update to preware, will come in the next days.

@palmuse

I have to look why it conflicts...

Consequence_9 · 12/08/2010, 04:03 PM

any update on this? I'd really like to install this, but it's still conflicting

voltageROCK · 01/05/2011, 07:19 PM

Is this patch going to allow for a drop down menu to come up for websites that usually have a sub menu when you hover over the link? geico is an example of this. on their main page, if you hover over a link, it has a drop down menu popup. does this patch give that option or is it something else? soup

pcworld · 02/25/2011, 08:02 AM

It worked without modifications in webOS 2.1.0. I just submitted it.

mk3 · 10:04 AM

Is there any way to add another option to the context menu choices? I'd like to add "save link target" so I can download and save the link object (file, picture, etc) to the /media/internal/downloads folder.

For some links this works (if the link is a file). I get "Download URL" in my context menu and when I select it, the file is saved in my downloads. Obviously, for this to work, the URL link has to be to a file location and not to another webpage...

For photos however, I'm not sure where they are saved. The pics just show up in my photos app in a Miscellaneous grouping.

mk3 · 04/04/2011, 12:53 PM

Looking to add as an option for downloading whatever the link goes to. Like in regular browsers.

JanJan · 04/05/2011, 12:34 AM

OS version? Which patch did you install?

shai126 · 08/21/2011, 11:13 AM

this isn't showing up in my preware - is the source available anywhere so I can apply manually? Thanks a lot.

olebl · 10/13/2011, 04:37 AM

I would love to see this patch for the Pre3. A lot of old patches work on the Pre3, you just have to add the older feeds in Preware, but sadly, this one won't install, even on a virgin Pre3.
