HomeScreen++ and the bottom bar - JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General

I found some amazing homescreen++ (formerly BatteryStatus) themes which consuming abviously more space on the screen, as available on my Neo.
On screen shots I saw, that the bottom bar is not visible. So I think HomeScreen++ can override it. But not on my Neo :-(. Is there any option I have to set?
Btw, can I change the two button/functions in the bottom bar. In the last image I have used, I had "actions" and "contacts". Here I have "calendar" and "contacts". I found actions quite useful for me, no idea how to get this back.
Help

The last one I was able to fix on my own . Found "Softkeys" at System Settins and installed the "Actions.cab" from HTC.
But still have no idea, why some themes are not able to use the space of the buttom bar on my Neo...

New XDA2, is it possible to...

...use the icon in the bottom bar (profile, close running apps...) but without the 02 ACTIVE menu?
Or may be use the active menu but WITHOUT the links in the left part of the screen? I want to let the today screen be free (in order to customize it with Calendar+, worldmate2004 etc...) but the icon in the bottom bar are very useful.
Or is there any software that allows me to put icons in the bottom bar? For istance a BATTERY icon in the bottom bar would be appreciated, but HOW??

Thank you all

To show battery:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\ShowTitleBarClock = 0
To remove battery:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\ShowTitleBarClock = 1

There's a registry tweak you can do to make both date and time to show on the taskbar without having to have a special program installed to do it. There is a section under developments in this forum giving many tricks for WM5.
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Shell
add new binary
(see attachments)
Battery AND clock?
is there any way to have both the battery and clock on the menu bar or are they mutually exclusive?
thanks, coj.
this would be really interesting!! I am curious as well!!

can i get rid of the top today separator line?

hi to all,
this is another annoying thing i have been trying to get rid of for a few months now.
it is regarding the grey horizontal line which sits right under the top bar.
to be more precise: i am not referring to today-plugin seperator lines in common, i mean just the top one, which seperates the top bar (containing the radio icons, etc and the start menu) from the first today plugin.
here are my findings so far:
- as it is somehow related directly to the os, you cannot make it transparent
- the reg-key hklm\software\microsoft\today\items\htchome\lock position = no does not solve the problem
- setting hklm\software\microsoft\color\6 (today screen horizontal bars) to the same color as the background does also not work as it only affects the other plugin seperator lines
is there any news to this topic? maybe there are more possibilities to tweak when you have 6.1 device?
many thanks
I have the same question.
i used to use vjtoggletoday to make the top bar smaller. the default size is 26 i believe. Set it to 24 and that should hide the seperator but keep the rest of the top bar visible.
it's not the exact fix you're looking for but it pretty much get's you the same look.
i have been using vjtoggletoday as well for hiding the buttom-bar and the top-bar separator line. but from time to time the buttom-bar and the top-bar were re-appearing - so i was hoping to find a more stable solution. i am using now dcinobar which only hides the buttom bar
did you ever find a resolution? I found this site...have not tried, but you may want to take a look. (http://www.codeproject.com/KB/mobile/PPCColorConfig.aspx)

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

Thank you,

No sorry.

Shift taskbar icon

I installed "QuickMenu 2.8" in my PDA, but the battery icon overlaps to the clock on the taskbar. How can I shift the icon (clock or battery, or another)?
Tnx everybody!
Do not know how your taskbar looks like......What I use is Battclock......http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=612083 .....which displays battery and clock above each other but various customizable options are possible. Basically it can cover current icons to give a better look.
Yes you can change position of icons via registry.....see attached example under 4.2 location http://touchlockpro.sourceforge.net/BSettings.html#4.10 ...but I warn you it is quite some manual work......
But you don't knows were could I found the registry value of the wm6.5 tasbar icon? becouse i don't wanna intall the taskbar program raccomanded by you.
Apart from the link I sent you I have not an overview of where to find registry for all other icons you want to move. Did it myself for the battery only.....
But your battery icon was installed by your program...isn't it? If I'll Know where is the value of my icon battery about "Quick Menu" Program, I've resolved my problem!
See if you have in registry HKCU\software\quickmenu. And than you have to find an X or Y indication for position of battery icon......play around with these values to see if it works. Note: soft reset after every change.....
I tried it...the key exists but inside there's nothing that calls to mind the X or Y Icon battery value....sigh!
