Hello everybody,

I'm trying to setup ms3 lifestyle panel with the famigerate clip="0" mod, to put widgets in the menu area.

I think I've done anything and read anything on the matter, but can't reach my goal.

I'm using MS 3.0.1 correctly registered and configured, withou any other mod, I only put the clip="0" in the menubar.xml file as specified but it doesn't work.

Please smbdy knows if there is any other mod I must apply to reach this?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Themes] Nicaragüense:
you need to also edit the dimensions on the lockscreen2.xml file.. the dragrect needs to be made larger since that is the area that contains the widgets. depending on your device the dimensions will be different.. usually you will add 50 to the height for the portrait and 50 to width for landscape, but thats on my device since i use wqvga.. just make sure you edit the values for the proper resolution.

Hi all, sorry for annoyance,

how to modify the association of contact manager in SpbMS professional layout??

i would like to associate these to the resco contact manager .ink files

without go to "display today" and then click on contacts.

I think i'd need a plugin like that linking SpbMS with Thumbcal......

Tks for an answer
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
If you want to clear the bottom section so you can put different buttons at the bottom of the screen (in the menu bar) then you will need to uninstall Extras and install Ultimate_062309.

If you dont need to change your bottom buttons and just want to put spb menu links on the main screen then you can install the update cab which will put the links in the spb menu screen for you to add as applications.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
If you have a QVGA device then just install Widgets Pro Plus Ultimate (from my signature) which has that tweak incorporated and set correctly.

You have to remember if you do it yourself that just editing the screen dimensions isnt good enough because the menubar at the bottom of the screen is an Overlay, meaning it lays on top of the main screen and even if you manage to do the clip tweak correctly anything you place at the bottom wont be selectable because the existing menubar buttons will always be on top. Thats why in Pro Plus Ultimate I deleted all the menu buttons so they didnt take priority over the space.

If you want a hasstle free existence then install Ultimate :D

If you have a VGA/WVGA device then I will be releasing Pro Plus Ultimate for your device hopefully tonight or tomorrow as long as my internet doesnt crap out first lol (stupid cheap dongle).

Mark :D
[Windows Mobile Themes] f0ster52:
Great news mskip, I indeed have a Diamond, so VGA, looking forward for your work, It'll be much appreciated.

Note: If smbdy want to update the first two posts, they should mark out this thing, now they only say that is sufficient to add the "clip" value.
[Windows Mobile Themes] baldoski:
Thanks.

Will install the update... fiddle... and try the Ultimate afterwards.

then will decide which one to keep. or can i have it both at the same time!! lol. greedy me!!!

thanks again.. been up late a couple nights playing your widgets.

and now i have more to play with.. haha, life is good....

BUT for QVGA , I dont know !!!

so you may play with them ( ie ; qa_weather_40 & qa_weather_54 & qa_weather_64 files ONLY ) until you get it fitted

did anyone get SPB MS3 to work in i780 in realvga 96 dpi mode?

96 dpi works fine enough.

Probably a theme needed, just like MS2?

MSKIP, your latest ultimate custom background version is truly a work of art, its awesome. I have question. I am using Togglestart at startup. The lifestyle page has an empty space on bottom that I have not figured out how to fix. The professional page looks great , completely full screen. Is there a way to get the lifestyle pages to fill the bottom section?

Thanx in advace and keep up the great work.

[Windows Mobile Themes] Revhead:
You're the man.

Thanks for all your hard work.

I just upgraded to the QVGA/WQVGA version of MS301 WidgetsProPlusUltimate_CustomBackGround_QVGA_062309.cab after doing a reinstall (Spb 3.0.1 Build 6501 on a Samsung Omnia i900)

I have two minor problems.

1. In landscape mode the background art doesn't cover the full screen leaving a gap between it and the start of taskbar at the right side.

2. I am getting what looks like a another set of icons overlaying the ones already have on the bottom task bar of the professional screen when I return from carousel. I have launcher, taskmanager and favourites at the bottom and am getting a home icon on the left and another favourites icon on the right - both slightly offset from the ones underneath. Returning to the carousel and back again usually gets rid of them but only temporarily.

I wonder whether you can shed any light on either problem?

Thanks, Rev

description of widgets

@mskip

first of all great work, without your work MS3 falls short of its promise, but now my phone can truly be all it can.

A few questions:

1. Do you have "widgets guide" a document that has a picture and name of each widget?

( i think that would be helpful; it can be frustrating to keep trying different clocks until you find one you like and accidentally trying the same one several time , obviously your busy, i thought this is something you may already have laying around)

2. I installed your current VGA "pro plus" (i think) on to my TP and all it did was give me the widgets. From reading the description i was expecting the 7 lifestyle pages and all of those things. Not sure if i did something wrong/something happened. Any thoughts?

Anyway looking forward to the VGA Ultimate pack, again great work!
[Windows Mobile Themes] -Vulture-:
@ mskip:

Just a short question...when i want to edit the 3 buttons on the bottom of the lifestyle screen...which file do i have to edit? I think i can figure out the rest myself.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Nicaragüense:
the file is called menubar.xml by default. but that one is also the menu used on the pro screen.. you can edit it ad save it as menubarlife.xml or something like that.. then edit the name of that layer on the lockscreen2.xml file
[Windows Mobile Themes] -Vulture-:
Thanks, got it!
[Windows Mobile Themes] f0ster52:
arghhh where is Pro Plus Ultimate VGA ?!?! can't wait lol
[Windows Mobile Themes] -Vulture-:
@ all:

<Plugin Class="Spb.LSP.MenuBar" Name="Btn1" ID="2">

<String Name="Backgrd" Value="MenuBackgrd"/>

<Int Name="GlobalIcon" Value="217"/>

<String Name="Text" Value=""/>

<String Name="Open" Value=":FAVORITES"/>

</Plugin>

This is where you set what should happen when you press a button. I want to change it to open the "My Shortcuts" menu, but i dont know the right value for the open string. Does anyone know?
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
No the dongle is just about holding together. It takes longer to get VGA out as I dont have a VGA device and have to test everything on an emulator which doesnt have landcape mode so I have to check everything 3 or 4 times.

If everything goes without trouble I will release pro plus ultimate and basic tomorrow night :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
1. I havent got a guide as such but I will make a pdf with all the current widgets and the widget name after pro plus vga has been released.

2. Sounds like you installed the basic version of pro plus. The tweaks and changes are all on the Extras version. If you installed Extras and you didnt get any of the extra carousel screens or the transparent menu bar (or anything else listed) then thats very confusing.
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
You cant put that in the menu bar as it stands you can only really put the screens from the carousel on the bottom unless you use the clip tweak or install pro plus ultimate.

You can put a link to "My Shortcuts" on the main screen. If you have a QVGA device and install pro plus ultimate then you can place that link at the bottom as a menu button on any screen you want.
[Windows Mobile Themes] -Vulture-:
Ah ok, thanks for the info. I already know this other way (no buttons at the bottom, so i can place the links i want as widgets). But has the problem with the lag when tapping on of the 5 shortcuts been solved? Those shortcuts are working flawlessly out of the explorer, but not as a widget...

spd mobile shell and music

Hi ,

I'm quite impressed by the spd shell, however there is one thing that irritates me too much:

When I turn on some music , I want to turn off the screen, so that I won't make any accidental unwanted calls while it's in my pocket.... BUT when I turn off the screen with spd shell, it also turns off the music!

What to do?

Mikkel
[Windows Mobile Themes] Mattster_spv:
I think you should find that there is still a button in the bottom right corner of your screen which when tapped will bring up the edit layout buttons. It's only the three shortcuts in the centre that have been removed in the ultimate version...

Mattster.
[Windows Mobile Themes] -Vulture-:
Well then...maybe you can tell me whats the value for the comm manager? Since i dont use spb contacts i dont need that button.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Nicaragüense:
in the configure settings on the emulator you should be able to rotate the device to test landscape. if that doesnt work perhaps you can use one of the app launch buttons to switch to landscape. it works for me.

QVGA (320x240) Menu Bar Question

Is there any way to move the menu bar from the side of the screen to the bottom? I have a HTC device (HP iPaq 910) with a 320x240 landscape screen and would really like to change the placement of the menu bar down to the bottom.

Thanks and many thanks to MKskip for his hard work!:)

[Windows Mobile Themes] Revhead:

[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
Theres no lag at all now the original 5 shortcuts in the ultimate version have been replaced with a new folder in spb menu called spb menus which has 10 spb links with the spb icons. Easy to add as menu buttons or screen buttons and the open straight away.

Do you mean the comm manager from windows mobile?
[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
If anyone else can verify this I will have a look at it as soon as I can im a bit busy with VGA at the moment.
[Windows Mobile Themes] -Vulture-:
Oh, great news! So i have to install the new version to get the new links, nice!

And no, i mean the comm manager of mobile shell...the plugin you can add. But when theres no lag anymore with the links, you can forget my question.

Thanks! Your support is just gorgeous!
[Windows Mobile Themes] dustinb17:
Hey mskip, I love the Invisible links being in all your builds. Any chance you can add the "Application Small" option that JGJackson offers as well. Kind of a nice feature to make the program links a little smaller.
[Windows Mobile Themes] alex_mac:
msskip.

I also have the omnia and am using MS301 WidgetsProPlusUltimate_CustomBackGround_QVGA_062309 and I see both the problems described by Revhead. The gap on the professional page is very small... maybe a millimetre and a bit, but doesn't bother me. I am able to get rid of the overlaid icons when they occur by swipping to the lifestyle screen and when I go back to professional screen the overlaid icons are gone untill i make the error occur again.

Hope this helps.

Hi ..

i don't know what are you trying to say ...

first i didn't call it my work .. second i DID mention that i have taken the work of the greats spb programmers and give them full credits, and i DID say too that i have create some graphics to it and i have made some editing on the programming too .. third i'm allready have this work in my phone now and the only thing i am thinking about when i'm trying to upload this project with my slow connection is SHARING it which others, and if you just go back a bunch of pages you can see people asking how to use mskip great work with mikibest program ..

just to let you know i have allready gotten a agreement from mskip to use his vga widgets ( the one which he has allready published ) and apothehouse also sent me his agreement and i'm waiting for mikibest's one ...

Finally .. since i'm very happy with how my pda looks like, i thought i might share what i have with other people .. so if you want i will call it "Nahid569 super mega pack" if that makes you feel happy ..

[Windows Mobile Themes] Revhead:
Great.

I'm not seeing things.

The gap on mine is probably 3 or 4 millimetres. I tried resizing the backgrounds as per mskip's instructions just to make sure, and even did it a second time using backgrounds that are both 400x400 pixels to see if it had any effect . . . but it still does the same thing. Obviously it does not locate the background using the centre of the image and working out if you know what I mean?

Not looking for an immediate solution, just wanted to log the problem and get some feedback. I know you're busy mskip and I appreciate all your hard work - in fact I appreciate it every time I take out my phone. :-)

[Windows Mobile Themes] mskip:
Yes please uninstall any older versions and reinstall Spb Mobile Shell. This will lose any screens you have set up so you might want to backup your settings first so you can get them back later.

Please test each widget to make sure it displays on the screen and for quality of graphics. If anything doesnt look right then I will redo it before release.

This is the basic version without any mods or extras so all you need to test is the widgets. Im pming you the link now. Thanks :D
