Is there a way of fixing the bottom bar on the screen? I have ticked the option but no joy.
When I have a number of appointments and tasks due which are on the today screen a scroll bar appears and the LG icons will scroll with the rest of the info.
Have you installed Spacer? It forces a blank space on the display and so the LG plugin does not scroll down.... See the specs here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355277
Yeah I have spacer2 installed and tried various spacer heights, tried fixed and unfixed location but once the scrollbar is required by the number of items on the today screen the LG icons scroll also.
I tried reinstalling spacer2 but same problem. Incidently I installed everything in the same order as is indicated in the original thread.
In what order should LG buttons and spacer2 be when ticked as items to appear on the Today screen? I tried the LG buttons at the top under HTC Home but still scrolls. I've unticked spacer2 aswell but still no change.
Does spacer2 work ticked or unticked because neither seems to make a difference. Would this indicate that spacer2 is not working properly?
Thanks
I suggest to go to the HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items in the registry and go to "LG Buttons" there change the value of "Type" to 5 then lg buttons will be fixed at the top of the all scrolling today items.
Sorry to be off topic, but is there a way to customize what is on the plug in tabs, like if I wanted to add Oera instead of IE?
Thanks!
Thanks a million NikMel works perfect. Nice one.
I have a problem with a scroll bar now on the whole today screen. I had installed the 6 tabs today screen. I then installed the LG ks320 plugin. I then tried the spb mobile shell which I removed but now I have a scroll bar on the full today screen. I removed the LG plugin but still the same and re-installed it with no change. I did a soft reset each time.
You changed more the LGbuttons in registry.
Go and search for all your changes in regestry in Today\Items key

LG buttons is no longer in the registry as i have removed the lg plugin but i looked at the registery after i reinstalled the lg plugin and the value of Type was 4. I originally had changed it to 5 as you had advised which worked fine but now i just am trying to get back to that stage after removing spb shell because i like the lg plugin. Reinstalling lg didn't work, it put the lg buttons on top of the today screen and everything underneath it scrolls. I removed lg again. Thanks for your help NikMel

Heres mine

This is my home screen.
I'm running:-
1. PhoneAlarm at the top
2. Plugin of my own showing date, battery life, temperature, notes and voice notes saved/outstanding and operator (with phone number popup)
3. Customised AlarmToday
4. NotesToday (the tiny blue dot, when shrunk, and then in drop down mode).
5. My modded version of QOTD.
6. cLaunch with some mods of my own.
7. SideX to run today plugins I don't need all the time, eg PocketWeather.
8. All running with SmallMenu Plus as my start menu.
Update (15 August 2005):
This is using a program I've written to provide a bigger Today Screen, removing the menu bar at the bottom. I use the bar at the top, so that stays put!)
Basic homescreen:
Showing NotesToday drop down:
Showing SideX today item (Floating keyboard):
Basic homepage showing my phone number popup - I use a dual sim so I can pop up my current telephone number (cus I'm too lazy to remember it!):
SmallMenu start menu button:
Showing my tool to relocate start button so I can have full screen applications:

Phone Alarm + Pocket Plus 3 + Pocket Breeze
Here's mine..
Marsware WeatherPanel
SBSH PocketBreeze
SBSH iLauncher
RhinoStats
that's mine
Mine is just simple:
From top to bottom:
Spb Pocket Plus
PocketWeather
Phone Dashboard
XCPUScalar (The buttons at bottom and CPU load at top)
Pocket breeze / contact breeze
DK Today
SPB Pocket Plus
This is mine! Very simple, cause I don't want a crowded today screen. I have Pocket Plus 3 and Wisbar Advance 2.4 installed with a custom made Windows Mobile 5.0 theme. I can use it pretty much as a one handed device now, cause I have the cascading start menu onder the contacts hardware button and the REAL close button under the agenda hardware button. So I can navigate and close everything on my MDA by using the hardware buttons and the navigationkey. (Btw if you hold the action button the context menu will pop up, for more non-touchscreen action. ) Me iz happy. :twisted:

I really really want that Phonealarm skin you have there......
dmmh - I haven't quite finished it yet; phoneAlarm still needs work on the textwindow (see the up/down arrows on the left? they blank the icons and show a textwindow containing info about SMSs etc. But Bruce (author of phonealarm) hasn't finished implementing it yet.
It still works well right now tho, shows calls/sms/voice calls (you get a red highlight when a missed call etc) and one click access to bluetooth and headset.
On the right you've got a display of profiles (I only use loud, vibrate, flight mode and silent). Clicking on the very left (invisible) will bring up config.
The whole thing is coloured to match my today theme, a plain magneto blue, to complement my OS X start button!
If you'd still like the skin, send me a PM.

I really like the "simple" today screens. Can you list what your using, from the top menu bar down.
Thanks
xcilion: it's beautiful, is it claunch, WDA, PPX or something else?! :lol:
Coming from the SPV Smartphone and p900 (WDA is like p900's Tracker software, which is a beautiful piece of software, highly recommended), I think the today screen should do that, show you what you're doing Today/let you use the phone at a glance on switching on the phone.
I think program menus/launchers should be programs away from the Today screen, because you've got to have Today plugins running in the background all the time, whereas launchers and apps you don't need often should be launched as needed to save resources (at least on HTC with smallish memory).
Did you remove the "NEW" taskbar yourself, or is that a 3rd party launcher? I've just made a tool to remove the NEW bar from normal today screen for an extra 26 pixels - yours looks great Size matters!

Can anyone confirm Small menu (http://tillanosoft.com/ce/smenu.html) on wizard prevents NewsBreak's (http://www.iliumsoft.com/site/nw/newsbreak.htm) today plug-in running after soft reset?
i have tried with all versions of small menu, newsbreak today plug-in does not load on start-up if small menu active you must go to today settings and tap ok to load it, i have tried delay start-up setting on small menu with no luck
I briefly used SmallMenu and it did not stop NewsBreak from loading. I do run Newsbreak as a plugin in PocketBreeze, though.
I am currently using the resco today plugin. I have some questions...
How can I keep the plugin always on top of screen. I don't want it to scroll away when scrolling down the page? Also, is there a way to maybe keep the plugin tab at the bottom of screen instead of top?

Go to Settings -> Elements -> mark the TodayPlugIn and use the 2 buttons on the right (move up/ down)
I also like the Resco plugin, and I don't think there's a way to "pin" it in position on the Today screen... It would a nice feature though!
Whether it's at the top or the bottom of your list of plugins, you may still experience the scrolling...
Thank's for helping out guys.
Can't seem to find the element setting though?

At the bottom of the Today screen, you got your SOFT button functions written, and some icons for applications like Comm Manager & Battery.
Personally, I don't care for that section of the today screen.
I wish to use that space taken on my screen to have more TODAY plugins.
Is there such a mod/hack/registry tweak/whatever to do so?
you can remove the battery and comm manager icon by editing the registry like so:
Remove the Battery Icon:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\Power]
"ShowIcon"=dword:00000000
Remove the Wireless Manager Icon:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\WirelessMgr]
"Keep"=dword:00000000
As for the soft key buttons, I do not believe there is a way to remove that bottom bar.
there is a possibility to remove the soft keys from the today screen:
use VJToggleToday2alpha
i dont think that'll work on wm6
Use Wisbar Advance 3 to remove that.
VJToggle works on WM6.
VJToggleToday2alpha works very well on WM6

I've seen the registry tweaks for comm mgr and battery.. but have not seen anything for the icon I get when I put the phone ni vibrate mode, and the other various app-specific icons (ie. I think Pocket Informant stuck an icon there). Seems more like there needs to be a setting to say "tray icons are disabled" vs. disabling each specific tray icon...

I have a problem with the htc hd 2, when you press the windows logo button on the bottom of the phone you jump to menu where all the icons are (such as installed programs icons and settings).
what happened is that all icons are missing except the today icon, how can
you bring all those icons back?
Also when you install a new program the phone doesn't make any icon in the menu. I have soft reset my phone with the reset button on the back but wouldn't work.
Can somebody help me with this problem?

I hope for your sake I'm wrong, but that sounds like a hard reset is needed, to me. Wait and see if anyone else has any suggestions, but that sounds quite a nasty problem.
I have got the same problem... any ideas how to fix it without hard reset?
I have two such icons .. HTC people and HTC calendar. It seems it has something to do with turning corresponding tabs off and on again.
Yes it would me nice to fix it without hard reset Any suggestions?
corresponding tabs off and on

How do you turn the corresponding tabs off and on?
Another thing hhen you go to the setting en press menu on the right corner then press more then nothing appears/happen?
Settins / personalize / home screen tabs
And I can confirm it .. first I had no such icons. Then I disabled calendar tab. Still nothing. Then I enabled calendar tab. And THC Calendar icon with no picture (only default one) showed up in the start menu. Now if I remove the tab, the icons gets removed too. But as I enable the tab again, icon is back.
Same for HTC People icon.
Only tweak I use which could have something to do with this enabling all settings icon in start menu (via BsB tweaks).

I see what you mean thanks for the effort, but with these icons the htc has no problems, its with icons you see when you press the windows logo button, its a long list with all the installed applications. In this screen they all disapeared except the today icon.
Some help from anybody would be very appreciated?
Hmmm
I had the same issue.
Flashed 1.48 over it.
Havn't had the problem since.
Check this dudes thread for additional/replacement icons...stunning stuff!

Updating rom solved the problem thanks for help me out!!
Any other solution available other then updating my ROM...cause it's already up-to-date.
I got this issue after a soft reset by BsB Tweaks.

Additional info:
- I'm using a Dutch ROM (so "\Windows\Startmenu\Program files" is called "\Windows\Startmenu\Programma's" )
- It happened after a soft reset after altering the Led Notifications/Message Notification setting
(I think the soft reset itself might have caused it)
- I have been moving startmenu items around using my ActiveSync connection
All I've found on the forum thus far is: Hard reset your device...but I really don't wanna.
Damn, it happened again. I'm stuck with just the Today icon again.
For a while I thought: leave it be. With Co0kie's Home Tab I can access all applications I need.
But I recently noticed that I cannot access my advanced settings screen either... and there's no shortcut for that.
Too bad, nobody came up with a solution that doesn't require a hard reset or ROM Update (which basically means the same: Clean slate).
Anyone?
