I had the keyboard problem too.

I use finger keyboard and in the display option of Remote Desktop I ticked "Fit to remote desktop" Be careful it allows you to tick the other box as well.

Also colours = High Color.

As to the other messages it must be a Windows 7 issue of more parameters having to be entered.Also I log off on my pc before I connect.

Hope this helps

Seems to be a great new use for our M2D, especially if I can use it with a today flash plugin... :D

Unfortunately cant get it running on my Manila 2D v2.0 build 19191432.

Here are my details....
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wapvirus:
Twolf try this make some icons for the tv tab in manila then run M2Dtp config

M2D Widget select TV , then in the red at bottom press and hold select add plugin, choose your plugin select apply, then menu exit .

Now go back to programs and run M2DTP_loader and it will work ;)

I posted some TV tab icons here

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5158136&postcount=1918

Thanks dan_ru great addition to Manila
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] incubus26jc:
great. let me know when we find a tv app that will work.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dan_ru:
twolf

Look like some values are missed in your registry. Take a look at "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\Device Lock\" and check presense of value "Type" (DWORD). It must be = 4.

Then - create only one window and try different plugins one by one.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
It worked.... :)

Thank you very much.

The operator tab was one of the problems, then some plugins cant run for some reason, the first configuration isnt easy, but its worth it...

As you can see here I was able to enable the TEMPUS plugin:

A few more changes and maybe we can even have W3D (animated weather) working... :D

I added a zip with my files, its just the original background from the latest M2D, the xml already with tv tab enabled and the home icons a little changed to look like a secondary home.

The plugins that worked so far: softick card export and tempus (throttle html by APBilbo)

The ones that didnt: Titanium, htc home, messaging, screen lock.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dan_ru:
Plugins "Titanium" and "Htc home" do not work (because this plugins just launchers).

I've add it to the 1-st post.

"messaging" and "screen lock" must work. Attach registry from "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\" - I'll check it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
Well, to be quite honest I only wanted a flash plugin embbeded on M2D, with it I can try to make a hole new m2d tab. :D

I was able to stretch the throttlehtml plugin to accept 240x200 flash files and thats almost all the space available (240x230 being the full space)...

A couple of bugs, sometimes after a reset, the TV tab would freeze my machine, for some reason.

And theres no "M2DTP loader" shortcut on the start menu, I had to make my own.

This app is great!

Thanks. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] srgudhka:
how abt this

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yD79FXdvmEQ
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
Btw, I think its even possible to recreate some Titanium plugins or even the Flash gadgets from Throttle:

It would be a mixture of flash and mortscript though, because saddly theres no existing flash plugin that can read registry or run files... :(

Flash can read simple txt files with variables inside, and mortcript can write those files with on-the-fly registry values, and with the color codes work-around I can even make flash run some pre-selected apps.

But the fact that the device is running M2D, flash and mortscript (to keep updating the variables) all at the same time, would definitely be a battery-hog... :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
Did a small test with the calendar:

If you press or swipe the sides of the calendar the month changes with a animation.

To use it, simply install and configure M2DTP to use the zipped altered version of the throttlehtml plugin with a black background (also in the zip).

Its already ready to run english (by default) or portuguese, any other language can be changed simply by translating the attached txt file and replacing it on the \Windows\ThrottleHTML folder.

---EDIT---

Made a few changes to make a skin for the latest M2D:

Just replace the files on the attached m2d_2.0_skin.zip onto the \Windows\ThrottleHTML folder and reload the plugin. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] brandall:
Been hoping someone would develop an app for this - great work thank you. Starting to mess now! I think we can see from Twolfs efforts already we're going to have some smart M2D tabs very shortly!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
Added an updated version of the calendar onto a new thread, not to crowd this one... :)

Rumball Diamond Weather - Weather Panel

Hey dan_ru

This is working with the diamond animated weather by Rumball using the Weather Panel plug-in.

The icon sets and setup files are on this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=401781

M2Dtp settings are:

X = 0

Y = 25

W = 240

H = 199

Using the existing weather tab.

In Weather Panel the Layout must be set to Manila.wpl to fit the screen.

It looks fantastic – looking forward to messing more with it. Would be great if we can suss out how to edit the individual tab softkeys…..

Question:

1) When the weather icon is ‘pushed’ it still shows the previous manila weather screen in the background – does your app just overlay the existing functions?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] incubus26jc:
ive done all the installing and putting the images in place but when i go to setup the plugin in the settings to select my city i cant get out of the options theres no ok or save or exit button. even the red button dont work. all i can do is reboot and no settings save.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] brandall:
I don't know if this is an issue initially setting Weather Panel up in M2D - I originally went through the set up using the Second Today plug-in.... You could try setting it up in there and then see if it appears in Manila ok after....? Maybe the layout settings I posted initially cover up the 'ok' option...? I'm guessing though..
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] incubus26jc:
thanks but it did not help. i also tried setting it up as a plugin on today by itself and i cannot for the life of me get back out of any option screen after going into it. im thinking it might be 6.5.1 bottom taskbar bug? mabye i didnt install it right. mabye i can setup my city and theme through registry?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] incubus26jc:
i installed the program to the device memory and over right the dll. then i put the fonts in the windows font foldr. then i put the weather panel folder on the storagecard root. is that right
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] brandall:
You're best off heading back over to the WP diamond theme thread for the full instructions - there are quite a few things to do and plenty of threads with help. I'm sure you're right on the bottom bar bug - I'm running 6.1 at the mo, so couldn't confirm.....
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dan_ru:
Yes, it's just overlay. Did You read Known Issues in first post?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] incubus26jc:
i got it working thanks. had to map the ok button to camera to get it to save settings!!! its great. thanks brandall! you brought new life to the weather page. and thanks dan_ru. there is going to be some very fasinating stuff on m2d because of your program. Thanks again
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] brandall:
Hi dan_ru

On the future dev of this, would it be possible to have the x,y,w,h options for each individual plug-in when they are on the same M2D tab, so when each plug-in is highlighted its exact position can be chosen?

Don't know if that will give overlaying issues, but just a suggestion.

Cheers

rlToday calendar works well.

See this thread (again by rumball) to get the rlToday files needed. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2326335&postcount=28

If you want the layout in the screen shot below (rather than side by side), I've attached the updated xml which needs to overwrite the existing file e.g in storage card\program files\rlToday\calendar

The original xml lauches Thumbcal - the attached launches the standard wm calendar.

Manila Title Headings

Hey folks

When slotting your plug-ins into manila for continuity you may want the title bar and text.

Below is a thread (again by Rumball) detailing his use of XIA multi-theme. The principle is the same but I’ve modded the attached file to call in the manila title bar image (hh_fw_title.png), so it should always match the current manila theme you have running.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2326335&postcount=28

If you open the file in a text editor, even with no experience of xml it’s easy to see where you can replace the text ‘calendar’ with whatever tab you want it to work on and adjust the spacing if necessary. You can edit this on your device with Total Commander.

The attached skin.xml file may have unnecessary commands left in. I’ve just messed with it so it works - so if you’re an expert and want to tell me what the simplest command lines should be please go ahead!

For details of other ways you can use XIA please check this site http://tech.xiaprojects.com/?section=Windows&project=XIAMultiTheme

Enjoy.

Calendar Tab – Icons, title and scrolling title

I think I’ve now read every bloody post on XDA about M2D…. but I’ve got a calendar tab working to show the correct icons and title when scrolling…. See screenshot below.

This is how I did it:

1) Back-up any files that will be changed below. This may not work for you! :confused:

2) De-select M2D/Touchflo from start\settings\today\items.

3) In M2DC enable the Operator Tab.

4) In Total Commander navigate to HKLM\Software|HTC\Manila2D\Operator\ then create a new string called ‘ServiceName’. The string value should be ‘Calendar’ (which will be the title on scrolling and in the tab itself). Thanks to sergiorus for this tip.

5) Next you need to edit your HTCHomeSettings.xml that’s in the window folder. You can use Total Commander or drag it to your PC via activeSync and edit in notepad. You need to edit these lines:

<Image index="129" name="hh_fw_tabbg_operator_mask.png" />

<Image index="147" name="hh_fw_tabicon_operator_mask.png" />

<Image index="218" name="hh_fw_bigicon_operator_mask.png" />

Rename the ‘.png’ extension to ‘.bmp’.

6) Unzip the attached images and drag them into the windows folder overwriting existing files. I think twolf made these, so thanks to him – hope you don’t mind me stealing!

7) Soft reset, then re-enable M2D

8) Go to M2Dtp and put the rlToday Calendar into the Operator tab using the settings:

X = 0

Y = 25

W = 240

H = 199

If you need the original thread: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5187659&postcount=26

That should give you as near as I can get it (so far) to a full calendar tab.

Depending on what version of M2D you have you may not have the correct Operator Tab reg entries, so if this doesn’t work for you try heading to this thread for the files http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=451623

Need to workout how to change the tab softkeys next and change the titles of the other tabs! Any suggestions please let me know!?!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] claus1953:
I have resized the default skin of rlToday to fit the Manila screen, see screen shot.

For everyone interested, below is the zip of the default skin. Unzip it and drop it in the rlToday folder to overwrite the original one. If you want save the original folder in some place so you can revert back.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] brandall:
Mapping Operator soft-keys

To apply soft-keys to the Operator tab navigate to HKLM\Software|HTC\Manila2D\home\ and copy the entries for SK1, SK1Cmd, SK1CmdParam, SK2, SK2Cmd and SK2CmdParam. Paste them into HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila2D\Operator.

After a soft reset you’ll see that these soft-keys now reflect what you have on your Home tab.

They are pretty simple to adjust using Total Commander. If you’re stuck you can always set them in M2DC, copy and paste and then change the Home tab back with M2DC after!

Right, next to customise the other damn tabs………… :confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] brandall:
Creating additional Operator Tabs

Dan_ru – do you have knowledge of how the HTCHomeSettings.xml looks for the reg entries? Now that the Operator Tab is fully customisable, I need more of them!! I can create a tab in the xml called OperatorWidget2 and enable it to appear in M2D, but it calls the same reg entries as the OperatorWidget (perhaps obviously). If I could get this to look at ‘Operator2’ directory in the reg entries then I could create it and it could have its own settings….. but I haven’t got a clue how to do this……. :confused:

I’m thinking of posting a ‘help thread’ over in Dev & Hacking to see if this can be done, but wondered if you have any ideas first??

Thanks again for this app, it’s already wasted many hours of my life!

Previous post I did was about having the x,y,w,h options for each plugin - looking at your screen shot on the first page are you using the spacer in order to retain some of the original today page and have a plugin ontop and below? I can't do this.... they just line up underneath each other....

I get the attached error when I try to use the spacer. Not sure how to attach registry and am using compatible M2D version.

Hi all!

I want to use this great tool to create a calendar tab using the tv tab.

Unfortunately I got a few error messages.

If I run the configurator and want to apply the calendar plugin to the tv-tab I got the error message "Unexpected error in M2DtpCfg.exe" (there is an detailed error message, but I don't know how to copy it...).

However my settings were saved. If I run the Loader.exe I got the error "LoadPlugin(Kalender): ERROR=Unsuported type" (find the whole log attached on this post).

Sometimes I get this error message too: "There was an issue with Manila2D.exe" (It's translated from German, so I'm not sure, if this is the correct translation). I get the option to send an report to Microsoft. I think I get this message when the today tool doesn't close correct after the error above.

My version of Manila2d is 2.0.1919.1432 and I have thumbcal installed. Oh and I have the HTC Touch2.

If you need any further information please let me know.

Thank you so much for your help!

well, you are a little bit confused you can not add new tabs in M2D, this is only to overlay them with others today plugins, but what you can do is use the Operator or the TV tabs and add some plugins, as you can see here in the screenshost i used one for a "Agenda Tab" an other for a "Calendar tab"
