REQUESTS: Configure Operator Tab

@mpenguin14

Hello, let me requests a new functionality, is very simple, just adding and modify programs to the Operator Tab, it have the same functionality like launch tab, all the setting is stored in the registry:

This example show the result:

- increase number of favorite contatcs icons? or make few tabs with them

- on program tab make shortcut to other set of programs in different category [ like games,utils etc... ]?

Weather tab

mpenguin

Dunno if this has been suggested or not but i would like to see if you can implement something for the weather tab for users to choose between the default weather tab settings or beyonds weather images settings. or maybe add a custom option for advanced users. i create all my skins using the settings for beyond's images because its what i use but i know some people prefer the default.

Launching //-\\-// Starting //-\\-// Toggle

mpenguin:

I was bored last night, flashed ROMs and installed M2D update 13 using a previous M2DC.

After applying the wasted paper theme I ran into the toggling issue.

Flashed, installed update 19b installed wasted paper worked.

Installed Girl tripped worked, installed wasted paper, toggled

Back to HH from post 3 of the theme thread and back to wasted paper worked.

Flashed to AthineOS with integrated Manila and did the same game.

Unfortunately there is NO pattern behind when it happens and random errors are hard to impossible to fix if you cannot stage them - sorry I thought I could be of some help.

Integrated backup creates a file list of 1125 files, not a big deal for me, but I guess it's related to the homesettings xml plus the file count (true extension as PNG, JPG) and "cooked" extensions ~112, ~178 etc. etc. I can live with it since most of my programs are installed on the SD card anyway but I do NOT think it's a problem of M2DC. I assume you create your list based on default image names with * as extension, though perhaps overkill, at least the cooked Manila parts are saved as well (there are worth issues than this one).

I didn't flash another integrated if it behaves the same way but looking at another phone with a PDACorner integrated here at work makes me assume "It'll be the same way as with my ROM". Thought I'd share.

Please add smartphone compatibility Im sure someone here can do it
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mpenguin14:
I am not sure the official procedure for upgrading M2D. I always do a hard reset just to be sure.

How to make the digital clock in 24 hr? i dunno, I always thought you could just change it in regional settings... maybe someone else could help us here

um, the only way I could think to do that would be to write a mortscript and map it to a hardware button or a softkey

- you can increase the number of contacts via some pretty big xml changes that herg posted in the xml reference thread

I think someone created a replacement for folderview.exe that could add this functionality, I forget what it is called though...

- right now there is no way to do that

This functionality will be in the next Major release... probably around thanksgiving (the end of november). You will then be able to pick and choose what parts of a theme you want to apply, and the customizer will be able to tell that you do not include weather icons in your theme so it would not even bother to update those settings.

What you can do now if you want is just delete the entire <WeatherWidget> </WeatherWIdget> lines... then when M2DC goes to read information from those lines it will not find anything and the users settings will not change

Thanks for trying, it is definitely a hard task to do.. .the best way to try and test would be to do a hard reset, install M2D version 20 (but version 21 may be released any minute), and then install the latest customizer (version 0.20 right now). But overall it is going to take some time to fully figure it all out, maybe I will have a better idea for error handling in the future, but for now I can't be of much more help

well I don't have a smartphone to test on, so I will try to get the WM6.1 smartphone emulator up and running with the latest all devices M2D and see if I can make any progress... i am thinking it may require a completely separate build and cab, but I am not sure... i will look into it when I find a good 4 hour chunk of time, and I am not sure whn that will be
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] pp56825:

@pp reg auto updare

Weather tab, right softkey -menu- settings-take the mark out off "auto update"
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] viluve:
Nice job !!

If I may, I want to add to the request list:

- ability to change the softkeys shortcut (bottom left & bottom right) in the home screen (ie. replacing Phone & Programs into something for example Contacts & Calendars)

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Syd159:
No success here. When i check them TouchFlo won't startup at all. It sure would be nice to see some screens.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] blazingwolf:
They don't do anything right now. I think it is a pretty easy guess as to what My Favs is. Think TMobile and maybe Altell.

As for operator, nothing shows in the tab when enabled. Here is the lines for it in the xml file:

OperatorWidget: got it working, but just a blank screen

MyFavesWidget: TouchFlo won't start.

Maybe in the future. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gfreek:
+1 I too would like that:)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mpenguin14:
yeah that is a really good feature request... I miss my left softkey being mapped to S2U2 and the right softkey mapped to oxios hibernate...

I haven't been able to figure out how to change it yet though.

Shaps advanced config mentions TF3D softkey changes, are there any diamond users that have used that functionality?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mconigs78:
I like this. I am looking for some way now to change the softkeys at the bottom, background, clock and everything else similar to HHC. So far great app it really helps and makes it faster.

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] oltp:
When you got all the relevant MyFaves (tab)icons in place M2D will start. the tab self is still hidden. Haven't investigated why though.

@mpenguin14: it would be nice to pick backgrounds, tab images, clocks etc. from different theme setups. Now I mix & match by hand and that takes a little more time. So when you've worked out a theme layout (with twolf) it would be a great addition to M2DC. And maybe an option to choose a custom folder for image storage, I mean other than the default windows folder. I know that works cause I tried it myself (The hh_weather images are still in my windows folder together with some launcher images).

keep up to good work, M

is there any way to replace the calendar shortcut on the first tab with another application? I don't like to have my appointments on the home screen so anybody can see them if I use my phone.

thx
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mpenguin14:
There is an update, no new features though, this is mainly a release to lay groundwork for future functionality

UPDATE Sep-21-2008 16:00 CDT

v0.5.44

* added apptodate support

* fixed installer issues

* switched license to gpl
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] colonel00:
I have edited manila to be able to open thired party calendar apps. Right now I have it opening thumbcal. I think I can make it work for any generic calendar app with just a shortcut. I think what I will do is have it open a pre-defined .lnk with a set name such as "m2dcalbn.lnk". Then people can edit that shortcut to their liking.

Thoughts?

Now, specifically dealing with the customizer app, you could have the customizer edit the shortcut to whatever the user selects.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] colonel00:
As stated above, I can change what it opens, but it still shows the appointments. However, you can check the xml discussion thread. It is quite easy to just remove everything in that area.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dr4g0n75:
first off... i love this program

my wish list if possible

theme support... or at least maybe a way to change the backgrounds for each tab

a way to make the contacts 4 colums just like the programs tab.

a way to personalize the email tab... such as which email accounts to display.. maybe a way to identify different accounts... colors or diff icons

a way to add shortcuts on the internet tab

and +1 for changing the bottom softkeys or to disable if possible and ++1 for adding custom tabs

thanks for the awesomeness of pain free customizing for manilla2d!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] EnsconcE:
This tool is really becoming a nice addition to the manilla 2d project. I love the additions which will be added and i hope all possible additions will be added. Keep up this great work mpenguin14 :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
Another idea: M2D backup (not the xml).

To backup you current settings on M2D as launcher list apps, weather cities and people dialup.

It backups these REGs:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila2D\Launcher

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila2D\Weather\Settings

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Contacts

And then reloads them by request.

Very usefull in every update of M2D... ^_^

Last M2D Customizer (cab) is working fine with 19b M2D version in a Mio A701 WWE 6.1 20921 rom (M2D main program is cooked in rom). Now, M2D is running very fast at last. No crashes and speed is good. I can change themes without problems with M2D Customizer (tested Quantum of Solace, Blue default, WPaper, Strambia, M2D Black, M2D White..). Really i´m very happy. M2D and M2D Customizer are great programs.

all versions of M2DC are available at the google code page

http://code.google.com/p/manilla2dc...=Filename+Summary+Uploaded+Size+DownloadCount

Please only download M2DC from the google code page or the sourcefoge.net page. I like to be able to have an idea of how many people are using my software, and those site give me a nice count of the amount of downloads, I know there are also many more people that use M2DC through cooked in roms and that is cool with me, but I would prefer people get their M2DC cabs from the official sources

mpenguin14 im not sure if this has to do with you but i found something nice and i thought you might see if we accomplish it with reedits or something

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=443398
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mpenguin14:
So what did you uncheck? M2DC doesn't support unchecking of the voicemails. I am not sure why your calendar entries are not showing up... maybe your rom doesn't have that information? Try flashing a default skin and see if that works.

looks interesting, but from what I can tell, like most TF3D things, it is not compatible with TF2D. RIght now there is just no way that I or anyone else to my knowledge knows of to create a new widget, and from what I can tell this functionality is just not supported at this point. It seems as though every time a new Manila 2D build comes out there is more functionality in it that we should have seen in the first build... ie we are just now ale to change the colors for the Messaging widget, BUT we still can't change the colors for the email widget... I think as these devices with Manila 2D start to be sold in more and more countries we will start seeing more builds and a more complete feature set, so maybe in the future, but right now these custom tabs only work for Manila 3D

and if anyone care si figured out how to change the font of the SMS memssage without having issues with it not displaying the whole message...

set the "Fmt" value to 16...

v20 not good

i use htc tytn 2 and the new update 20 is not6 working well!! the old one v19 was almost perfect, i mean fast, stable and everything was working! :confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mpenguin14:
I still haven't tried it on version 20... but I would assume that it is a new feature in version 20 and not present in version 18 or 19

hmm, I'm not sure why that would be, all I do to set the "default" font is leave the "Face" registry key value to an empty string

not to my knowledge

Are you talking about Manila 2D or Manila 2D Customizer?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kidnamedAlbert:
i would love that option.

i need a save as read button on messaging tab...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kwill:
yeah, i thought i was going crazy with the font changing the style. but, try it on the update. with update 20 the font changed to helvectica neue. when i change the missed calls to adjust the size and leave the font type to default. it changes to whatever the default on our system is. maybe because we dont have helvectica neue on our systems. but, then how m2d even display it?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] claus1953:
I have seen somewhere in the registry a key with values for default fonts, it should be helvetica neue, and in the value there was tahoma and some others separed by commas. Maybe tweaking there leads to some change. I don't remember which registry it was though. Had myself lots of problems with default fonts, mostly after loading new fonts, and some of the panels like communications and sounds take some hard to read font type and size.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kidnamedAlbert:
okay i know ths isnt a big deal or anything.

but why when i create a theme and add in a preview image, it doesnt show up in md2c?

mchapman007 has previews on all his themes and im just wondering why mine dont show up.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Khrushy:
Huh? My M2D "auto-reads" new SMS's if I leave it the "unread" message up on the sms tab for about 15 seconds.

Edit: Huh - wait - it doesn't anymore - that must have changed when I updated to V20 of M2D to fix the scrolling issue I was having. /brain melts.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kidnamedAlbert:
yeah actually i think it DID have that feature.

but i do have it anymore.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mpenguin14:
UPDATE Nov-10-2008

v.0.21.213

- added more fonts [Messaging, interent, settings, weather] (Manila2D v20 only)

- added ability to add a folder of themes in the theme manager, this folder will

be remembered and every time you restart M2DC will look for new themes in that

folder

- updated donator list (I think)

- fixed build process (again... stupid devenv not knowing how to handle dependencies)

- uninstaller no longer applies your backed up theme

LATEST DOWNLOAD HERE (November 09 v0.21.210)

If you find M2DC useful, please consider giving a donation

All donators will have their names added to the about page :)

added a lot of new font options, some untested, but I think they should work. If the font is not working correctly for you it is probably because you are not running version 20 of Manila 2D, if you need version 20 then get it in the m2D release thread (link in my sig)

The theme folder thing has been requested a lot, so I finally implemented it.

When you press the "Add" button on the theme page just choose a folder instead of a specific file, this folder will be save dhte the available themes xml file and whenever you restart
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mpenguin14:
yeah, it has been requested a handful of times, and I too am fingin that I would love that feature... but right now there is no way that I know of to change the softkey settings on any tab but the Home tab, so your best bet would be ot make a mortscript and map that to a softkey, a hardware button, or to a launcher entry, I can probably even make a very small program to do this if enough people are interested, but I just don't know how to make it work from the messaging tab

it would make sense that M2D uses the system font if no font is provided, I am not fully sure how it reads the "default", I just know that if I leave it blank it doesn't crash

yeah I saw someone post about some registry keys in this thread, I never bothered too much with them, mostly because I am interested in font colros more than font faces, I may take the time tomorrow to find out what the reg keys were and test them

hmmm, not sure. Older verisons of M2DC has a big FAIL with the preview.jpeg file... it did a case sensitive compare so it has to be "preview.jpeg" or "preview.jpeg", the latest version doesn't do this anymore. I downloaded your latest minimal flow theme and it showed up as expected in the theme preview box on M2DC version 21. its no big deal, but there is no need to rename the zip file to m2dct, M2DC will work with zip files too

thank you, I hope M2DC is working well for you
