No, it's a new screen that pops up when you hit the spacebar, i dont honestly understand what the point of it is

[Vijik]

Thanks for the reply, but how can I get that version? The update function fails. Also if the shortcut list pops on top of the screen I will still get that red screen which also flashes when using shortcuts in Myownhotkeys app that uses shortcutme. I really need to get back to 5!! Can you make it available on appworld so I can downgrade?

All of those have either a way to fix already, or will be fixed in near future.

I don't think that you can go back to version 5 after you have installed version 6.

I would stay with ShortcutMe 6 to be able to use all the new and free upgrades in the future.

You can now download the latest version. See my post below.

Does the Shortcutme homescreen replace the existing homescreen (ie appear automatically when I turn on my BB) or do I have to press a button for it to appear?

No, you should press at least a button to open it (However, if you want you can get Scheduled Launch to launch ShortcutMe with its Home Screen few seconds after the BB starts up)

So, no way to bypass the Home Screen so it looks like v5?

Not right now. But depending on the requests I might allow users to switch it off.
I am currently gathering feedbacks from users and those will effect the next versions.

Right now, please upgrade to 6.1.0.6 using the download links I have provided and set
Extra AppName (10) at the bottom of the Common Config page to
@@@@
This will force Shortcut Menu to pop up right away after you open ShortcutMe.

This is a temporary solution until more feedbacks are collected about the Home Screen.

I am a new SCM user from QL and so far I like it, but when i updated to the new version, my profile shortcuts no longer work. The profile selector will open, but it will not launch the profile. I rolled back to the app world version, but I thought I would share that with you to see if you have any ideas, or to see if it was a bug. Thanks!

Hmm. All ringer profile macros seem to be working on SCM 6.1.0.6_OS7_T on 9900/7.1.0.342. Mind posting the broken macro and I'll see what I can do. Also what SCM version are you running and on what device.

Same here, the profile dialogue pops up and then nothing happens

You will have to forgive my lack of knowledge on macros. I didn't set one up because i was comfortable with them yet. I did nothing more then set up a parameter when I chose profile selector. I'm on a 9900/7.1.0.284 and I was running the 6.1.0.6 SCM

Care to post something testable?
Like are you using navmove or *key or menuitemfrom ...

Ahha, cool. Didn't even know that was an option... Anyways, tested and it's working for me. I'm going to guess it's a permission problem. If you could make sure "input simulation" is allowed in app permissions. Idealy set everything to allow.

Edit #1
Totally forget. Launch ShortcutMe, press menu key, go into common config. And there's a "set application permissions" button that will prompt you if needed. If it doesn't do anything, then all the required permissions are already allowed

[hornlovah]

Just downloaded 6.1.0.6, and the fixes work perfectly. I did notice one problem with Updates feature though. When I choose to install 6.1.0.6, I am presented with only one version, touchscreen for BB OS 7 or newer, so I had to download the upgrade from the links provided above.

I wanted to share the wallpaper that I use for SCM v6 on my 9930 as well as screenshots of the SCM homescreen and my default launch screen (showing the shortcut list). I used BeWeather icons (specifically, Grey World XXL v2 by BlastTyrant and Songbird) in order to take advantage of the transparent icon backgrounds.

It was permissions, thanks.

It is a permission problem. Please click on "Set App Permission" in Common Config page as Juggalo explained to get it to work.

For the macros, with ShortcutMe 6, you have the Plugin Function feature.
As soon as some macro plugin functions start to pop up for ShortcutMe 6 on various forums, you can just download them to your BB's uSD (uSD/scm/scmpluginfunctions/), open and close ShortcutMe to load the plugin into ShortcutMe, and start using it like a blackbox.
No need to know about the macro in that plugin function.
However, if you start to write macro, you can make your own macro shortcuts and even create macro plugin functions (for your self and your friends).

That got it! i should have known to do that. I did some beta work for QL and had to do that. Thanks for your help. I'm liking SCM and I hope to figure out macros soon.

Still having trouble with the App. Name "Messages" on version 6.1.06: The window no longer switches, but no macros will run. I added a new shortcut with the App. Name “Messages” and a MENUKey macro and the menu does not open. All the other message names (Messages_Calls, Messages_Email, etc...) work fine, so not a pressing issue for me.

As an interim work-around, try the following macro (if you have Homescreen shortcuts enabled):

App. Name: Home Screen
Macros: SpKeyM;

Add other macro commands as necessary.

Same results over here.
App Name: Messages
Macros:
Ding100;
Vibrate200

And neither the ding nor vibrate happen.

Edit #1
Another work around would be

App Name: Macro
Macros:
LaunchAndWait Messages;
MenuKey;

And whatever else you want.

It is smart moving the weather, battery, date and time icons to the right, reducing the transparency of the Shortcut Menu and combining it with @@@@ option (to force Shortcut Menu to show when SCM is started).

You got me to adopt your good solution.
Thanks.

DOH! Thank you visortgw. That's a much more elegant solution than my cludgy workaround.

And Juggalo20's is even better yet! Usually more than one way to skin a cat using SCM...

Please try again now and see if Updates (SCM>BB/Menu>Updates) now provide you the correct version of ShortcutMe.

Yes it does.
