I understand that the media panel can be 'converted' to an app. Is there a way to do this for other panels like facebook or the fish panels?
noobs are us
Rajiv
if one have the sourcecode then it's easy
otherwise maybe people just make apps which
look like the panels

Could the fishes application be reused on other pocket pc machines?
Or is it hardware specific?
Not the one on Xperia since it has been made for it`s hardware which is more powerful than Kaiser`s...
but a "weaker" version of it for other phones could work
The whole Panels interface is made for the WVGA screen. It doesn't work on QVGA!
I didnt wanted the panels, only the fish application.
Even if I coudnt see the bottom 80 pixels...

There is a today screen plugin which runs the fish, which is heavily integrated with Panels.

Could u provide the link???
judging from the sdk. been messing with the code Tutorials
the panels are not normal programs
they are a type of today screen items but not like normal ones
so dont think people can just move it to another phone without
some sort of wrapper or a full blown panel system

Which we may just be getting on other devices
will there ever be one?
i heard sony eriscson are realising their sdk for the panels, which will allow developers to create their own panels.
it would be nice if we could create our own TF3d tabs, that would be very usefull
it would be nice if we could get someone to convert some of the panels available for XPERIA to stand-alone applications. this will have many advantages. namely:
-the panel launcher is slow and uses a lot of memory and does not look optimised very well. having the panels shortcuts from programs or from the programs tab in touchflo is much better.
- will make some of the cool panels available to all phones
- should not be that hard to implement seeing that some of these panels are just modified applications.
-will increase development for these as the user base of these will increase a lot.
-better and faster running device as only the needed panels will be loaded
Hi!
Take a look at Xperia Programs Hacks and Tweaks Thread, there is a tool called PubbaInstaller. It makes possible installing Media and radio panel as standalaone app.
I dont really know, if that works for the other panels as well, but it could be worth a try....

maybe you should look for whole world of alternative software...dude.
i am amazed by popularity of **** novadays.
you, htc people just need do buy cellphone instead of destroying ppc world.
Thread will be moved to Q&A section
My idea :
To actually have all the menus, scrollbar, default program backgrounds,the dropdown menu(the 1 on whcih we click when in File-explorer to jump from My Device to Storage Card),the Contacts Background,the Messaging Background..etc.
All of them transparent like Glass..This is just a Personal thought as in to change the feel n look of the OS.
WM6.5 all ready has titanium with the kind of glass panels m talking about.
Due to which it enhances the Wallpaper used i mean u can use almost any wallpaper.
And about the Visibility issue which will occur in almost everyone's mind after reading this post i think we can make it translucent the same way it becomes when we click on start menu..the icons r very much visible even with a complete white background.
So i think the backgrounds in the programs like file-explorer,windows media player-library,my pictures,SMS,Contacts etc. can be made the same.
I Wish some expert graphic designers and Programmers make my imagination come true and give all us Windows users a completely new interface.
I think for this .pngs & .jpgs of the system will have to be altered or replaced with the new ones and program them accordingly.
I am not at all good at programming and neither Graphics and i dont even know whether my idea can actually be implemented or no?
so many views n no single reply..
I am no coder, but Windows Mobile does not support transparencies like that. Only specific applications that are contained in themselves (aka titanium renders over itself so it has transparency. Mobile shell renders over itself so it has it too, etc.) But i could be wrong.
i don know either even m not sure about my concept..but i think .pngs can be useful...lets c..i have just put forward an idea..
Ive always wanted that feature too, part of the reason why I like Titanium so much, but as Shadowline pointed out, I think it's a limitation of the OS itself, even WM 6.5.
Then again, hope someone can prove us wrong.
yaah hoping for the same!!
Let's flood microsoft with this so they put it in wm7.

I did a quick post about the new start screen on my website. Would love it if people could check it out.

i LOVE the new Startcreen <3
Tile colour variations and folders
I watched the video and it didn't go into the options of..
Folders on start screen
nor
Changing colours of each tile
Both these features I would think are a must to keep up with the although shabby highly effective widgets and folders on ICS 4.0.
If I wan't to visually separate work and play on my windows phone, I would think that having a colour code would be the best visual differentiator. Also, if I wanted to place small sized toggles on the start screen which turned gps on and off, torch on off, 3G on off then I would want to have a specific colour set for those buttons so I could find them in even my most dizzy states of mind. Plus, think of the cool patterns you could make... Is anyone thinking 'Ziggy' from Quantum Leap?
Also, with 100 00 apps and growing, unnecessary crowding could be overcome by placing similar apps into customizable folders (which share the live tile display). I know its a legacy term but I still use an 'Accessories' folder on my SGS3 to place things like calculator, voice recorder etc. just the same as Windows 95.
I've heard rumors / requests but I haven't seen anything definitive from MSFT yet, so have I missed something?
I think it's a very different concept, those tiles.. But i still find it confusing.... I'm that kind of person who is obsessed with organization, tagging things and putting them into specific categories, I don't think I'd be OK with a lot of random things mixed in my home screen... But maybe it's just a matter of getting used to it, and probably this UI is more friendly for smartphone beginners.
I am as well. I have my tiles categorised by their purpose. Personally I think being able to resize the tiles as I please will make this easier to do...
nice
