Setting Position of Today Plugins? - General Questions and Answers

Hi, does anyone know if there is a way to change where a today plugin sits? i have SPB Weather, and would like to have the today plugin at the bottom of my screen.
Cheers

start > settings > today > items
select the item, click on move up or down

hklm/software/microsoft/today/items/"name of plugin"
some plugins needs to have "type" changed from 4 to 5.. or from 5 to 4...to be moveable.

cheers guys, but I meant at the bottom of the screen, not just the bottom of the today icons I want a gap in the middle between the icons.

you can use spacer today plugin.. its a tranparent plugin with customizable height.. you can put that between two today plugins..

excellent, cheers

The spacer plugin is decent but it annoys me how long it takes to redraw the screen during rotation, is there anything else out there, even a reg-edit or something?

Analog Clock

Hi
Can any body recommend a decent looking analog clock today plugin?
something similar to that shown in omega one "1 Pass" screen , but as a today plugin item
thanx
Keep Your Stylus Pressed On The Digital Clock On THe Start Bar Thing and It will give u an option of Digital vs Analog! So I Found out!
ummmm
Any other options for a somewhat bigger clock? on the today screen?
I think SPB Time is what you are looking for. See it at http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/time/?en

It's not a today plug-in but it does have a screen saver mode - when it's in the cradle, the clock can be set to appear after a number of minutes, makes a very nice desk clock.
I think it's JGUI analog clock...

making softkeys "bigger"

hi,
how can i make the softkeys (that are the 2 in the touch-area at the bottom, right?) react on fingerpresses on the zoombar?
for example: on the manila email tab, usually the softkeys are named "inbox" and "menu". I want to open the "inbox", when i press on the zoombar at the location 5-15%, that is the area directly under "inbox".
I saw this feature while i played around with several roms, but forgot to write down the rom.
kind regards,
macfly.
on a similar note, itd be great to hide the slider bar on the screen and use the scroll bar to switch between touchflo tabs.

Yes. That would be very nice.

[REQ] background pic shifting with tabs

Hello all,
I just watched a small video of the introduction of the Nexus 1 "Google phone":
http://www.nuvideo.nl/internet/34105/google-lanceert-supertelefoon.html
and saw a nice feature: the background shifts left and right as one swipes the screen left and right.
I'm thinking it would be some nice piece of eye candy to have a panoramic background picture that shifts left a bit when you scroll to the next tab in HTC's sense interface vice versa.
Anyone knows of an app or tweak that does this?
I saw this feature on spb shell 3.5
I suppose this would be a nice mod in conjunction with cookies home tab.

Not sure that sense would be able to produce the desired effect. When you press on the tab slider, a large icon overlay is displayed and obscures the background. Also, while sliding from left to right the previously selected tab remains visible (behind the overlay) until you release.

Awww, you're right ofcourse
OK how about this idea: what if we could define a background picture per tab? Not the same effect as in the movie I linked but still pretty awesomecookies!

Try Max Manila: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=551489. I've not used it but it does mention BG4all(Background for all tabs) and more interestingly, Panoramic wallpapers?
Or this BG4all only: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=636887

Transparent top and bottom taskbars

Hello,
I'm trying to get my top and bottom taskbars transparent. But I have no success.
I tried the cab from smaberg, changed the manila files in windows folder and also removed the taskbar.png with transparent ones.
All this doesn't work for me.
Who has a solution for Manila 2.5.19211619.0.
Thanks.
For transparent taskbars you have to use "HDWall" - search for it
smabergs cab is only for the cutains behind the operator logo and the bottom slider

have fun!
But tbh, this is not a solution for transparency... It just replaces the black backgrounds in the top and bottom with slices of the selected wallpaper, meaning that as long as you can see the top bar, even if in a program, it will have the same slice of the wallpaper.
Real transparency comes for example when you press the windows hard button and get to that menu, that's a real transparent bar at the top... Although it might work in the same way, what do I know. I just find it too ugly that when you're in another program the top bar still has the slice of the wallpaper..

I tried HDWall. But the result is not satisfying. The bottom taskbar is now like the wallpaper. But the top is black. If I go to start menu the background is from the theme only the bottom taskbar is from the wall paper.
If I slide the menu I can't see the background. All is black except the bottom taskbar.
At the end this is ugly.

I played a bit around and deactivated Sense. So there´s the standard WM 6.5.5 homescreen - with transparent taskbar & softbar. Why isn´t this possible with Manila?

I also want to ask the same question but still waiting for solution around the web.

[Q] Homescreen Customize Question

Hi There!
Is it possible to get rid of this small white bar which scrolls left/ride depending on which Homescreen you are ?
Thx !!
I believe it's Launcher Pro screen indicator. I'm not using it right now but I guess you can find the settings from your Home Screen > Menu > Preferences or something similar.
Thanks man found it +1
