I use ilauncher which allows you to put icons for running progs in the title bar.
To free up space in the bar I would like to remove the 'Start' written beside the windows icon.
Anyone know a way to do this?
Thanks
no way apart from using wisbar advanced or other shell replacements
I heard that some guys do it... go and ask
I cant remember exactly but ask to Joshkoss yes the Moderator from hermes he was trying to do it on winmo 6.1 or 6.5 i cant remember exactly.

Hmm...
Thanks for the reply, but I assume that Wisbar and other shell aps are only a pretty wrapper for a set of registry changes, no?
I had heard some tell that you could manage it by changing the title bar text to the same color as the title bar (text is still there, but invisible) using SKTools or UITweaker, but I couldnt seem to get it to work.
Anyone have any thoughts on how this approach might be managed?

Hello
I'm obviously new here and glad to find a place where I can find out more about my xda2s.
One quick question I hope someone can answer - on my old Dell x3 there was a fantastic 'Switcher Bar' appearing at the top of the screen, which when pressed would show what programs were currently open, and allowed you to then close them, therefore saving memory etc etc.
I know there is the task manager on the xda2s but I cannot get an icon for it; one that will stay constantly there. Any ideas or is it simple not possible.
Thanks in advance

install the attached file, it will give you 2 new icons. one on the top which will show battery status and the second icon at the buttom which will show running programs.
hope this is what you are looking for. :wink:

that's great, thank you. I've installed it into Program Files> Task Bar> (all the unzippped files) but it hasn't done anything.....how do I activate it?
Many thanks
HPJ
you dont unzip it
you sync it to the pda and run it then it install what needs to be installed
personaly i use PHM Task Manager
which is pretty much the same as the task manager in windows(pc)
Still cant do it....I need more practise obviously.
Whats the PHM Manager like in WindowsPC (I know how to use that at least.....)
Thanks
HPJ
here is what it's like and look like

well when you doubleclick on a cab file you should see a progress bar often it's gon before you know it and then the program should have been autoinstalled and have an icon in programs

thanks
No.

If there were, why would people write entire apps to do the same thing?
Hello everyone,
I really need your help guys, seems tha it is possible to do any kind of change on xda exec but the only thing i manage to do is to upgrade the all rom thanks to your tips and nothing else.
I would like to personalize the bar tray with more icon like rotate screen but when i try your .cab files( i just uprgade it to the latest wm6 crossbow) reset and no change.
I am sure i miss something can anyone post a full procedure to explain how to use that hacks?
Thanks in advance this forum is amazing!!
using a program called tray launch you can add icons to the bar ont he bottom.
to add screen rotate i know you can use tweaks 2k2 to do that. that a good allround customizing program too.
you can find tray launch on the forum somewhere.. actualy in one of my posts too.
Use PHM Tray Launch, or if you're crazy, VJTrayLaunch.

I'm trying to disable windows title that usually appears on the task bar. I have searched everywhere and no luck so far. I'm only able to remove it with Wisbar installed, which is really not an option for me. Also on Wisbar it's more like a skinning solution anyway not really removing the actual windows title. Is this even possible? Anyone have any suggestion on this? Thanks in advance guys.
PS: I'm using WM6.1 Pro.
Cheers.

Unfortunately, Wisbar is the only thing that I've managed to accomplish this with.
This may be what you are wanting

Hi. I'm using Vico's 6.5.5 Rom but I really miss the taskbar options that Wisbar advance used to give me (like showing what apps were running). I've tried the Beta 5 version of WB but it doesn't work with WM 6.5.5.
Does anyone know of a similar taskbar replacement that will work with this ROM, or a way to disable that annoying drop down finger menu in WM 6.5.5 that pops down every time you click the taskbar?
Phil.
I use quickmenu for that. A menu that displays your running programs and gives a option to close them individual or all at once.
QuickMenu V2.8.410.1610.CAB from this topic
You can place the Q button in the middle of the screen.
Woks very well on this 6.5.5 rom.
Oh, and disable the battery icon or you will be having two of them.
Do you want a program that shows running programs in the top bar? (the one were the clock is)?

Yeah, and also a way to modilfy the top bar and its po-out/drop-down curtain finger friendly thing (which I'd rather do without to be honest)

I'm giving this a try at the moment, thanks to your suggestion. It does give me some of the funtionality I'm looking for but it's not as nice as WA IMO.
