I enjoy AudioManager, but I'm not particularly fond of TF3D. However, it appears that certain modules of TF3D, such as Audio Manager or the new Rhodium TF3D Contact app, require TF3D to be running as the today plugin.
My question is, is there a way to start these TF3D apps without necessarily having TF3D be running as the today plugin? Could you invoke those apps independently by doing something like the following?:
"manila.exe -audiomanager"
Thanks!

Is it possible get that more those standard today screen as panel?
Cos I would like to have FEWidgets & iFronz etc. as panels and still have that normal today screen.
Any ideas?
That is a nice idea...!
2 today screens
The closest iv seen to solving this is to use a program called mtoday, see thread - Best Apps for the x1.
You can create 2 today screens with different plugins, run program, set profile 1 and save, then create shortcut, do the same for profile 2. In the programs menu you then find links to launch your 2 today screens. I have pocket plus 4 and touch 3d. Why use panel spaces switching this way is easier and faster.
Posted from my X1
Hi,
I think axjiii is searching a programme or a option to create a panel for a specific programme, for expamle a panel which launches iFonz or other programmes. I was also looking for such an programme with which I could create several panels for i.e. skype, TV, iFonz, etc.
BTW, is iFonz working on the X1? As I'm still waiting for my X1 I couldn't test it yet.
Well, maybe the TF3D panel launcher could be tweaked to launch FEWidgets and iFonz.
No iFonz panel as at yet, right?

Maybe you should try downloading the SDK panel editing package from Sony and dissect the "TF3D as a panel" cab: it just "runs" TF3D
There's also a "youtube" panel but it makes the same simple thing: when pressed, it runs the youtube app and turns "today" screen to blank
You could try to build a panel that runs your desired app
I'd also love such a feature. I have got the panels installed already (not using them though) and to me they very much seem to be something like multiple today screens. It would be nice to just keep the existing panels and the normal today screen and to be able to define another panel (or many more) for which you can define a different today screen with different plugins etc.
What would be very important from my perspective is the impact on resources, both memory and CPU. It would be good not having all today plugins running at all time, even when they are not visible, because many today plugins affect performance a lot from what I experienced. Also the time when switching the home screen via the panels shouldn't take too long, so, initializing the today plugins completely whenever switching today screens/panels would take too long in my point of view. Still, today plugins which run in the background need to get specific messages, e.g. GPRS monitor for still counting the data.
What I would love to have with such a solution would be to be able to switch panels/today screens by switching profiles, i.e. switching panels via commandline.

Looks quite simple for everyone who has Microsoft Visual Studio.
Unfortunately I don’t have MSVS, but I someone create a panel that simply call some app stored in registry (or panel1 for app1, panel2 for app2 and so on), it will be great! In combination with mToday or SecondToday it will allow for anyone to have multiple Today Screens.
I’m personally prefer to have on main Today Screen SPB Dairy and SPB Phone Suite (organiser) while on second Today a lot of shortcuts to useful apps and tools (pocket pc).
If I was to install the touchflo 3d onto my X1, what exactly happens? Does a new panel get created specifically for Touchflo 3d? Does the X1's today panel get replaced with it? Or does the X1's entire panel interface get replaced with it? Also, what are those other Blackstone .cab's for that I see floating around?
I am new to this world, but here are my findings:
TF3D is set up as a single big element of the first today screen, and upong installing the Full Cabs of TF3D (or putting a TF3D ROM) you get it setup like this by default.
but you can easily go to setting and reconfigure your Today screen with the default elements like the Owner info and the rest of the stuff.
but there is also a TF3D as panel, that you install after having TF3D already running which creates a panel for TF3D, this my my current situation, i use the Touch-It 3.0 ROM by itje but TF3D disabled from first Today Menu and installed as Panel..
so if I want TF3D as a panel, what do I do? with some many threads and files about this, it gets a little confusing. Could you point me to the correct thread that gives the files and directions on how to get it running as a panel?
Hi there!
I have been fooling with Manila a bunch and there are still a few memory bugs with it but I am really liking the speed over throttlelauncher and a bunch of other stuff. Anyway I have been doing some research into the integration of other programs with the Manila 2D. I had a few questions. Wondering if anyone has any ideas.
1. Is it possible to incorporate S2P and S2V instead of HTC Album and HTC Player for the Music and Pictures tab?
2. Is it possible to add a stock tab into manila? Idea I had was to incorporate it with KLO Stocker. Or has anyone developed a stock tab for Manila 2d?
3. Why does Manila close programs on its own to make more memory?
4. Why does the manila not work in landscape. With the latest version and I slide my keyboard open, Manila minimizes whatever program I am using and instead of staying landscape it pushes it back to portrat mode and goes back to Manila. What should I do? With the keyboard open it screen stays portrait until I close the keyboard and then open it again. What should I do?
Any help would be great but the idea for Stock would be sweeeett! Ideas?
Bump, I would also like to know if it is possible to integrate s2p into m2d.

1. No
2. No
3. Don't know what you're saying
4. I'm not sure if there is WQVGA M2D.
I am using a plugin to switch easily between User Interface programs. I put together a video of me running Titanium, Touchflo 2d, Second Today, IFonz, SPB Mobile Shell, and Throttle Launcher all at the same time. Its Pretty cool. I know there are memory issues running all at once. I'm just playing around. here are screens. watch video (used app launcher plugin, touchflo detacher, all the UI programs. getting the settings right is most time consuming. Softkey changes, windows startup settings, and icons is all you need to do

all you need is the App launcher plugin here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=514490
Rename the plugin to User Interface with chome editor here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=506951
install touchflo detacher here (scroll to bottom of page)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=528098&highlight=touchflo+detacher
add all the ui programs to the panel pages and make screenshots of each ui so you can make icons for each page. I personally dont like any ui starting with windows accept titanium. so make your startup settings for each ui how you want. If they dont start with windows they will take longer to load when you click on them but its better than them all starting with windows. let me know if you need any more help.
Is there an app or a tweak I can use to add an additional tab to the touchflo UI? I would like to add another app shortcut tab where I can add shortcuts. I prefer to not change the default ROM. Is there a cab file that can do that?
not that I've seen
You could try ManilaToday
and add a plugin that allows shortcuts
Not sure which plugin but I'm guessing They'll be one
maybe by messing around with iphonetoday
the icons don't have to look like an iphone's
Yeah hunt for ManillaTodayPlugin (MTP), installed fine for me (but read carefully), although personally I like ROMs where the Start Menu is a scrollable shortcut grid
