Yes, I've already requested this to IDM, and I know they don't monitor the forums.
I was just wondering, though, am I the only person that would like to see something like this? I've been pretty much converting all my software to touch friendly, as I have a touch system. I still use a mouse, and sometimes a pen or stylus, but the vast majority I don't even grab the mouse, I use the screen directly with my fingers. Multi-touch is awesome.
There is something very advantageous to have a program/app that you can work on at the desktop, shut down, pick up a tablet, and keep working on that same file. It's not always as easy typing when you're a fast touch typist, but it makes it possible to do quick edits while away from your desk and not having to carry a full laptop with you. Having something like a Surface Pro 3 is nice, but touchpads are horrendous to use for me so I use the screen instead. On "non-touch friendly" programs and apps, using a touch screen on such a high-res device is extremely difficult, because you can't get your fat little fingers to navigate the small menus. You have to use a mouse, which kind of defeats the purpose of it being easy to use while in hand.
What I'd really like to see is once Windows 10 is out, to have a Windows 10 universal app that could be installed on my Desktop, laptop, tablet, and phone, so that I can carry it with me everywhere. It would basically make the PortableApps version obsolete, or at least endangered.
Was just wondering if there is anyone else out there that feels the same way about wanting touch friendly?
