thanks for the reply. My Dell Venue 8 Pro is on order and I think I'll replicate your setup. Btw, I like your diecast/model ship in the pic.

Just few things, not sure if you ordered the tablet already with the pen, but you can get it very cheap on ebay (but be sure it is revision A01, not an older one) and also there have been problems with microSD card compatibility. First I got one made by Kingston (not exactly the cheapest one) and it got frequently disconnected and several times, the partitioin on the card got damaged so it had to be reformatted. When you search the internet, other people had similar problems with various cards. The one that finally worked for me is Sandisk 64GB Ultra microSDXC (not enough posts to insert link), it has been working flawlessly for several months.

Oh, and the ship is Ticonderoga CG-47 from Easy model if I remember correctly. And it is not diecast, just plastic.

I use either a Bluetooth mouse or the previously mentioned Touchmousepointer to fully enable the interface. I can tell you that it all works beautifully and is nearly as efficient to use as a standard keyboard-and-mouse interface.

If anyone wants to try this, I'll be happy to share my keyboard template, although it's rather fun (and easy) to create your own. My next move is to create some custom labels so F1 is "Attack" or maybe a Harpoon-like icon.
I tell you, it's pretty awesome to have


Thanks for the tips. Today i bought this Onscreen Keyboard.
Would you pls share your layout for cmano?

This virtual mouse thing is really cool, too.
Is there any way the mouse-cursor is shown all the time without having the virtual touchpad on the screen.
If not with this Program, any other way the mousecursor is visible the whole time, even if i use a touchpen or my fingers?

Pretty nice machine. But after few tries to play with on screen keyboard and/or mouse app(some Slitherine publish games doesn't fully or partly support touch screen) I got Dell keyboard, which is with built-in battery from ebay and now it's perfect machine for wargames.

I have a Surface Pro 3 with an i5 and Command runs very well on medium-sized scenarios. I had the Dell Venue 8 for a while and loved it for simple Command scenarios.

Status: offline 		Gents, been running CMANO for last few years on my SP2 and now on the SP3. Runs great, no issues, aside from an occasional bogdown on the biggest scenarios. However, given the limited real estate on the screen, is there a program to wirelessly sync your smartphone (Android) to your Windows tablet? That way I can have the message box on the phone, while focusing mainly on the big screen.

Thanks in advance.

Hmmm, totally missed AIGrant's feature in thread about being hooked on CMANO.....hopefully it's the answer I need.
