Contacts - viewing and editing - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Does anyone know if there is a tool available to view/edit contacts NOTES so that you see more than just one line at a time (esp when viewing).
If there is a large note attached to the contact it's very annoying when you can only see a line (or line and half in case of editing). Virtually impossible to find the information you are looking for.
When editing I find I can see one line and then bottom part of the line on top. If I try to scroll across the line at the top sometime dissappears because its virtually impossible to scroll by movinng your finger in a perfect horrizontal line.
Ideally I would like to be able to view an entire page of the NOTES field.

[Q] two lines of text on icon labels?

Is there any way to change homescreen icon labels to have room for two lines of text, rather than just one?
I'm running ADWLauncher EX on mik's CM7 6.5.7. As far as I can tell, these are my only options:
1. use ADWLauncher's "New Icon" setting, which crushes two words on top of each other into one line, having the bottom word be unreadably small and the top of the upper word cut off by the edge of the label:
GPS <--Only more crushed together
Essentials
2. have the length of the label cut off the right side once a certain number of letters fill it ("GPS Essen").
Option #1 I don't like at all, the "bolded" text just makes it harder to read, and decreasing the font size doesn't change the "top and bottom" word placement. Is there any way at all to somehow set the labels to allow for two lines of regular-sized text? I could swear I saw it done somewhere but I'm damned if I can remember where, or if I'm just imagining it. I fiddled a bit with ProLauncher but I couldn't find an option for that either.
(This may be the wrong forum to ask this in, so feel free to chuck it to the right place)

[Q] How to save a scribed picture from gallery ?

Imagine you downloaded an image from Google images and you want to add some scribble and notes to this image with Flyer's pen
Ok, how to save this picture ? i can not seem to find a method to save the scribed image ? The only method I can find is sharing this picture to email or somewhere else but sometimes the scribed image transferred sometimes it sends the pictures untouched unscribed.
Any ideas ?
It works fine with web sites and notes etc, I can not seem to find a workable solution on downloaded pictures from web.
Can you take a screenshot and scribble like that?
Something else I've done is save the image, and open it in the HTC scribe notes and scribble on there. Once I get home, I'll play around with it and I will let you know!
doublecheese -
The easiest way I know of is to take a screenshot. Obviously you cannot simply tap the screen with the pen if you’re already scribbling, but there is a built in hard key combination to accomplish the task - you’re going to need two hands…
1) Press and hold the power button
2) Quickly tap the Home Icon along the bezel.
This takes a screenshot and dumps it into the Camera Shots folder/directory.
Works in either landscape or portrait, and is only method I found so far to take a shot of any screen that’s already using the pen drawing functionality. If you don’t want the pen tools in the picture you have to tap them out before taking the screenshot.
The only drawback I can think of is that the image resolution is capped at the screen resolution - which is not an issue if you’re annotating a web screenshot from a pen tap, but if you’re doodling over a 5 MP image it will be limiting.
By the way, whenever I attempt to send an inked photo from within the gallery via email, Bluetooth, etc., there’s always a dialog asking if I want to send the ink as part of the image, perhaps you’ve inadvertently not chosen that option in the past? I only ask because in a month of nearly daily use the Flyer’s never failed to send out an inked image on my behalf.
Hope the preceding information was helpful.

[Q] Painting multiline text on image

Hi,
I'm trying to develop a simple application to add a caption into a image, but I have a problem that I've no idea how to solve it.
The app is simple: I click on a TextView, an AlertDialog pops-up with a EditText, I insert some text, click at "ok" and it sets that text as the textview.
Then comes my problem: I click on a save button and it saves the image with that caption on my sd card. If it's a short text, everything's fine, but on text's that have more than one line it shows everything on only one line. So, if it's a long text, instead of breaking it according to the image's width and continuing into a new line, it just keeps going off the screen.
I'm using canvas.drawText to do it, but it doesn't support line breaks so I'm pretty lost about this.
Is there another way to do this that supports line break? Or a way to break the string into a new line and then use drawText?
I found a simple solution.
Instead of drawing the text on the image, I just drawed the view. I got almost the same result and in a simple way!:laugh:
displaying it as a view is a great idea, but I would suggest one more thing - you can measure the text and draw it in next lines.

[Q] Moon+Reader not holding 2 pages of PDF next to each other

Hi,
I had a PDF document opened in Moon+Reader Pro (on Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 8.0) in Portrait mode. With this PDF if I swiped from Right to Left the pages transitioned over the page borders. If I removed my finger mid way I would be able to see part of left page, a thin border and part of the (following) right page. If I swiped again I would progress to the next page. Swiping in the other direction allowed me to do the reserve. This feature was fantastic for viewing wide photos that span two pages.
Putting it differently I could have part of page x and part of page x+1 on the screen.
After reading this PDF I deleted it and then decided to tinker the settings. From this point on wards any PDF I open no longer supports this function. Now as I swipe the pages do shift as described above but the moment I remove my finger the page "adjusts" so that a single page is visible.
This feature is really useful to me. I really like Moon+ Reader but would consider any Android app that supports this feature for PDFs.
Thanks for your help

Send items to front and/or back

Hi everyone
So I'm new to this customisable widget stuff and have been trying to edit a good template I found. Anyway, it's a clock with a rectangular background and I want to put another, smaller rectangle in the middle but this rectangle will only sit in front of the text, which is a pain.
Unless I've missed it, I'd love it to have a "Send Forward" and "Send Backward" button.
Thanks
