Running Programs in Taskbar like Magic Button?

I was looking for a program that was able to show me running apps in the taskbar, tray or todayscreen and found Magic Button. I like it very much, but only the icons of the running programs in the upper taskbar next to the startbutton. I don't need the other functions, because I have SPB Pocket Plus.
Is there a possbility to deactivate the Close-Button of Magic Button?
Or are there other programs that are showing ONLY the icons of running programs?

The O2 task manager works by showing all running progs in a bar on the home screen. search for o2plus i think should find it.
I was hoping to find a prog that shows the icons in the bottom task bar...

icons of running programs, or just launcher?

icon of running programs

alternative to Magicbutton
I'm still looking for an alternative but can't find anything. I'm not an expert, maybe theres a way to edit the registry so that Magicbuttons starts without the X-Button-function. I need only the icons of running tasks next to the start-button in the Taskbar. Please help.

Try SK Menu (http://www.s-k-tools.com)

I've upgraded to WM6 on Trinity. Noe Magicbutton looks really bad! It changes the colors of the taskbar. Is there an update available?

looking fot the same registry tweak or small program...

Dev State
This is a Today Plugin, which can show the running apps with icons and some other things like battery status etc. I just use the running programms-feature. You can set the icon size too, which is quite finger friendly

WKTask
WKTask is what you need:

Taskbar?

Is there any program out that will transform the default bar on the today screen into a taskbar? It would be great if it could work like X-Button, where it would only show icons of the programs running in the background. A single click could launch the app and holding it could close it. I know of a lot of programs that show recently used apps, but not the apps that are actually running in the background.

tried wktask ?

cool, thanks

looking for an alternative taskmanager

i'm looking for either a modded htc task manager, or alternative task manager.
but whatever i manage to find doesn't suit my needs, or doesn't look good.
i need a task manager that works pretty much like the HTC task manager does in the today screen. but i need it to work like that everywhere.
the only one i could find that works like that is pBar, but it's button half overlaps other taskbar icons such as battery/time.
and it keeps displaying "start" which can't be added to the exceptions.
i see a lot of people recommend wktask, but that's a big no for me.
it moves the taskbar a few pixels away from where it should be, puts too much icons on my taskbar, and can't switch/close tasks through it's quickmenu.

Try Showcase by e-natives technology. Being developed daily but already a superb stable and finger friendly task manager/switcher
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=530564

i tried it, but it's not very responsive for me.
often when i try to open the screen for switching windows, or if i try to close something, it just minimizes the windows because it doesn't register me touching the other 2 "buttons"

Running Applications

Is there any way to show icons of all running application on systray (bottom bar of the today page)? In this way I can activate them by clicking on their icons.
Thanks,

There is an application called WKTASK which might be what you arelooking for.
There are 2 versions, one of them has been tweaked to work on the HD2 with Manilla (I think).
Use this tool to help you find it....http://www.google.com/advanced_search?q=+site:http://forum.xda-developers.com&hl=en&lr=&as_qdr=all

any suggestion?

No sorry.
