Hey all,
Is it possible to hide those annoying colored horizontal lines on the today screen that separate your plugins, etc?
I could have sworn I saw an option for it when I first got my device, but can't find it anymore.
Thanks in advance.
Impossible
I have been searching for over 6 months and the answer is---NO.
You can only change the color to match the theme (useless) or use something like Wisbar Desktop to change your desktop and eventually mask over the line.
I feel your frustration. I hate those lines too. Can't get rid of it (and MSDN Library has nothing on it!).

HTC Homeplugin - How to edit white & grey text for: Home, Weather & Music Tabs?
Prior to posting this message, I have researched extensively on this site and Google for the answer but have not been successful. How can the white and grey text be changed to a different color in the HTC Homeplugin? For example, in the home tab, I am referring to the "carrier" name and "MM/DD/YY". In the weather tab, the white text for the current temperature vs. high= white and low= grey. The music tab initial text is white "Music Player" until you activate the media player and the text changes. I am currently using a white "tsk" and it makes it very hard to read the grey and white. I tried editing the "setup" XML file that is part of the initial HTC Homeplugin 6 tab version (I believe it's the latest one).
Any assistance on finding an answer to this inquiry will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
I have the same question about HTC Home customize (in Wizard forum): how to add more tabs, change categories as I want... but no one answer yet! Could you, the professional, please show to the newbie the way to do...
Up to now, I only can add my app from storage to 1 of 9 block in Laucher tab (by create a shortcut in Program folder) and to tray (by using PHM toy)...

As much I hate to say it, right now there is no option to change the color of the carrier and date. My only suggestion to you would be to use a darker tsk or use HHC to change the background of the home plugin to something darker like the original background. Maybe some day they will come up with a way to change those 2 features but it is not currently available.

As for the Home plugin, you can add up to 6 tabs using the home customizer or schaps advanced configuration tool. You can also pick and choose which tabs you want.
For example>> When you flash the TNT.1437 Rom, the default setup is 5 tabs(home, favorite contacts, weather, launcher, music) but if you don't want the weather, but instead you would rather have the profiles tab, you can easily change that or have all 6 tabs.
As far as the launcher goes, you can only have 9 apps there and I don't think anything is gonna change that. If you need a quick launch solution, take a look at cLaunch. It's free and lets you do the same thing as the home plugin, only not so stylishly. Or if that is not an option for you then use PHM Power Toys and use TrayLaunch and that is just as effective.
Another Option for you would be Wisbar Advance Desktop(sorry, not free). You are able to create multiple pages and flip through them as you please(if you use HTC Home Customizer to unlock the home plugin you will be able to use it with WAD), add shortcuts to the desktop, create full themes for your today screen... etc. It's a really nice app but like I mentioned above, It isn't freeware.
OK! That means there's no way to add more tabs (just home, favorite contacts, weather, launcher, music) and add more block to Launcher either!
In fact I dont need new theme or skin but I'll try Wisbar Advance Desktop 1.3.0.7.

As a long time member of this forum, I must ask you to remove this post. Whether or not you got it for free or not is entire on you but please do not offer warez here. Offering someone Wisbar Advance Desktop for free is still stealing from the author even if you received it for free.
OK, done, man!
Hey folks, can't find an answer from searching, but anyone know how I can edit, ie change, the colour of the blue border around the today screen plugin for windows live search? It's a bit stand-outish and doesn't quite fit with the rest of the screen.
Removing the border altogether would be ideal, seeing as we're stuck with separators, but a colour change would at least be better than how it is atm.
Thanks in advance!
Hallo, I have a question. Under the titlebar and above the bar with the calendar and the contacts in wm6 is a small gray line. Is there any way to remove it or to change the color?

Welcome to the forum
I used to have a bar similar to yours but in the upper part of the screen, and later I understood that was a very nice and dicreet battery meter, I´m not sure if in your case could be the same. If not try to reflas the ROM if it´s very anoying for you, otherwise I don´t think it´s a big problem...
I invite you to READ the Wiki.
Hope it helps and good luck,
lol.. that's amazing. i have been plowing my polaris for almost a year now and not once did i notice this bar. you must have very sharp eyes.
I don't remember seeing an option to change this bar in any of the color customizing applications i've stumbled into. you can use a different shell tho.. if you want to get rid of it.. like Wisbar Desktop Advance..
i might be wrong (it happens to us all haha) but this can be changed with UI tweaker (edit)? or do as Nir says and just change the theme
I already tested UI Tweaker, but there is no option to change this line. I thought this lines are the plugin seperators, but that was wrong.
Whit Wisbar Advanced this lines are black. That all I want, but with wisbar there are to many other changes I don´t like.
unfortunately i have no idea how you can change that.. as i tried UI Tweaker myself to see if it's possible and didn't manage.
RC Mod doesn't work either..
mmmm, if the lines really do your head in, change the colour of the top bar itself personally i use black (hence no lines) but i had to change the theme first.
I'm using the classicblack theme and i still have that bar.
my screen shot. I dont have the lines?
Hi all,
I'd like to know how to change if possible the color of the vertical and horizontal scrollbars.
I got a nice flat black top and bottom bars and want scroll bars to match these rather than poor grey windows default.
I searched but really can't find an answer in the forum.
I would prefer a direct registry hack rather than a tweak app as most of the time it's difficult to know what changes these apps are doing to the system and though it's quiet hard to revert back to previous settings.
Thanks a lot

HTC Touch P3450
Hi to all...
I did search and search but nothing found. On my today screen - home tab - I have 20 shortcuts. Below the icons of the shortcut appears a text label.
With 20 shortcuts the text is very small, barely readable and in my opinion very distracting. Therefore I prefer shortcuts without the text label.
Where should I search? Manila files, registry? Can anyone point me in the right direction or hand over a solution?
Would appreciate your help! I'm using the 1.61 ROM and have the Max Manila mod installed.
Found some of a solution myself. I'm not yet satisfied with it though.
The text can be removed by editing the registry:
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\Home\nn
Where nn stands for shortcut number, eg. 1, 2, 3, ..... 20
Look for the entry DispName. This contains the shortcut text.
Replace the text by a space.
Now the text box is gone, but the little black textfield remains.
When replacing the DispName by an empty string the text box also disappears, but now the whole shortcut icon becomes grey. So that is not a nice looking option.
Still looking for a better solution.
Nobody here to offer some help??
Just can't imagine I'm the only one who wants to get rid of the text below the shortcuts on the home tab. Without this text the home tab looks so much cleaner / nicer...
PS: Happy NEW YEAR to all !!
