OldPueblo posted:I haven't used my nexus 7 in awhile, but isn't that default chrome behavior for touch? on Android, yes. Works quite well, too. It just started happening on Windows. That said, it doesn't work well or at all in windows. It zooms in but won't register the touch you try to do after it's zoomed in.

No, it was introduced in the new version a few days ago and the canary build at the end of October. That's the default behavior on the Android build and was just ported over without proper testing. fleshweasel posted:Looks like it's time to upgrade to Safari, the browser built for OS X. And time to upgrade to no ads. I've been using old IE in the meantime. It works. e: Response from Google: quote:Hi All, Heran Bago fucked around with this message at 19:21 on Nov 24, 2014 |

Too bad about the price, the CPU and especially the keyboard, though. fleshweasel posted:Isn't IE supposed to be the best touch browser for windows anyway? Yup, though Chrome is pretty much the only competitor making an effort. Hopefully they'll keep on this track and port over the best stuff from android (maybe test it once or twice before release?) and give up on that dumbfuck window manager thing they had going. Firefox squandered a lot of effort on a Metro browser that went nowhere and was abandoned. Last time I tried the new Opera it wasn't even capable of importing bookmarks, so gently caress if I'm going to bother.

Having the keyboard facing outwards on the underside of the tablet while you're holding it just rubs me the wrong way. At least with the SP3 I can reverse the keyboard or detach it entirely.

Can we post any awesome Black Friday deals we find here? I'm thinking of going to the Windows store to see what's going down, and of course Amazon etc. Hoping for a really good deal on maybe an Asus T100/T200.

The stupid zoom thing has been removed in the new version of Chrome! Go to the Menu>About Google Chrome to force the update. IE is better in every way but I can't get myself to break the habit of Chrome. I'm dumb.

A month or so after its release, how do people like the T200? I was looking at the T100 to replace my laptop before the T200 dropped, and I like that there's a more powerful version of what I was originally going to buy now because who knows if/when I'll build the Dream Gaming Desktoptm I keep telling myself I'll put together. I also have enough Amazon points and other gift cards stocked up where I could pick up th $500 model for under $300, and I have a spare Office '13 key so it not coming pre-installed on that model is no big deal. But is it a good laptop replacement? I would be using it with the dock at least 90% of the time, but I've not tried to touch-only Windows experience so maybe I'll change my tune on that?

Sorry if this has been asked but do any T100 owners use a case with just the tablet part? I don't always have mine connected to the keyboard and would like to protect the screen.

I have an IVSO smart cover style case. Works with the keyboard without much issue, and the angle it provides is the exact same as the max angle the dock provides, so it makes it more stable. I'd highly reccomend it.

I have a weird issue with an external display hooked up by HDMI. After I set up the monitor that the internal lcd is disabled and set the desktop to HDMI the Netflix app breaks. I can browse the videos just fine but once it starts to play the external monitor rotates 90 degrees and that makes it really hard to do anything. After I exit the display goes back to normal. This doesn't happen if I set the dual display mode to extend but then the internal lcd is stuck with a static image.

The hinge is slightly looser than when I got it, but then mine felt like I was going to break it if I pushed it back more than 30 degrees since it resisted so much. Apart from the occasional "nope, your AC wifi is not connected to the internet" from sleep problem, has anyone come across a problem where the onscreen keyboard just goes nuts? I've had it 3-4 times over the weeks, where its almost like a stuck ctrl/shift/whatever key, so typing results in a few characters and then opening charms bar, searches, etc. Tried to kill the keyboard processes, etc, but only thing to cure it is to reboot. Weirdest part is that you can change to handwriting mode and that part still works....

Anyone that's interested in the thinkpad tablet 10, or 8, they're on sale pretty cheap in the lenovo outlet store, for brand new ones until the 30th apparently. Like, $400 for the 10, and $200 for the 8 i believe.

That happens on my surface pro 1. My fix is just to press the ctrl key twice, or the alt key, our whichever modifier it was.

I've had this, except that it was always acting as if I was holding down the Windows key. Near as I can tell, it was happening after I hit the button on the side of the screen, and it would always be unresponsive whenever I hit the button again while it's in this state. Haven't found a fix besides attaching the keyboard and hitting the Windows button that way to clear it (and this always happened when I didn't have the keyboard already attached, of course).

Is windows 10 any better at managing scaling per monitor? In 8.1 if I have my SP3 in the docking station I have to set scaling to "smaller" and "set scaling the same for both monitors" to make the external monitor tolerable and it makes text on the surface really small. If I use any other setting one monitor is fine but the other is blurry.

I didn't like my T100 very much, I sold it a while ago. It was an okay tablet, I just had more use for the laptop part and it's not too good at being one. Perhaps my biggest complaint was the screen doesn't tilt back much farther than 45 degrees from the dock/keyboard, which makes it noticeably non-ergonomic compared to regular laptops in many situations.

Poorly functioning DPI scaling is the worst thing about the SP3. Some programs support it but when they don't you're stuck with tiny rear end unreadable text. Is there a VNC viewer that can scale the outout nicely? I'm viewing my 1920*1080 desktop screen so resizing and scaling the text constantly isnt really an option. Also even though reviews said that the screen is good at cutting down on reflections, I still see myself reflected too often. Anyway, I still find it useful. I'm not sure if I'm making great use of the digitizer yet for working purposes, but as a compact and light laptop it's nice. I just wish I could have had an i3 with 120 GB ssd and 6GB of RAM. I need to run Linux and a VM is plenty snappy even with the i3, but 4GB of RAM is really pushing it when Windows alone uses 1-2. I suppose I could dual boot but then that seems to miss half the point of having a digitizer and not poo poo office suite. I suppose it's easy enough to share files on the SD card though. e: how ridiculous is it that the skype metro app is a piece of garbage, while the desktop app doesn't support dpi scaling, even in Windows 10? Jeeez. Precambrian Video Games fucked around with this message at 12:48 on Dec 4, 2014 |

I've got a family member that needs a tablet for school that has a keyboard and USB port that doesn't cost too much. Is the ASUS T100 series still pretty much the best/only choice? I looked at that Acer but I didn't see a model with a 500GB dock

My SP3 has developed the nasty habit of hanging on reboot and BSOD'ing (Driver Power State IIRC) Anyone had this happen? I'll prob reinstall it on the Weekend anyway since it is loving annoying as gently caress. Seem to be from the last firmware update I installed but can't 100% say that

I just bought a t100, and on my home connection the wifi kept dropping out every few minutes, necessitating a right-click, "troubleshoot problems" for it to function again. I searched online and found a few tips on the Asus Transformer forums, having to make a few changes to the wifi adapter (changing the driver to Microsoft instead of Broadcom, and a couple of settings) and it works much better now.
