I have this idea also for a fue weeks now, this will be realy nice to see. Because now i dont have to many plugins on today screen because that scroll bar is so ugly and anoying. Let's see what can be done
I'd love it, too. I know that too many plug-ins on today screen will decrease performance, but I'd just love to have weather plugin or quick dial pictures just below the bottom edge. That would be fantastic, especially when used with FTouchFlo...So...pretty pretty please!!!
Hello,
My todayscreen is about 500 pixels long, so with the ugly desent bar....You gues
With severals programs you can change the value of :
Horizontal Scrollbars Width (2)
Vertical Scrollbars Width (2)
Then there will be juste a black line....the scrolling you'll do with FtouchFlo
Yeah - I use 'FTouchFlo' and I can scroll on the today screen with my finger (you will have to make the vert, scroll bar thin as above post).
So search for 'FTouchFlo' on these forumns.
Yeah,but scroll bar is quite useful everywhere else,isn't it? Well,at least for me it is...

not when you have touchflo I rarely use the scroll bars unless im using the stylus but even with the stylus I don't always use the scroll bars anyway i just want the today screen scroll bars removed or something .
But its nice to know if you've got anywhere to scroll to in the first place,right? I like seeing where I am in the list,that's what I use scroll bars for. Just information. Also,sometimes you've got small menus popping down (for example when choosing appointment time or something) when scroll bars can be useful.

well then you wouldn't install the program if someone developed it. I would prefer a scroll bar less today screen and so would some other's, its not all that useful to me. I never put items over the limit cose in my opinion they look ugly. and a finger friendly way to scroll through the plug-ins on the today screen.
I agree with sebastian. I like to see a thin scroll bar of width 12px in IE when I check my gmail. I like to see when I'm close to the bottom of the page so I don't have to waste my time scrolling right down to the bottom. It would completely disorientate me to not know where I am in the many lists in all the programs I use, or to know how may things there are in my list. Wouldn't it with you?!
SMS, Resco file explorer, agenda one, Adobe acrobat, word, pocket E-sword, and file browsers in all my other programs (like TCPMP, SPB Imageer which i use frequently) are all pretty much screwed when I set the vertical scrollbar to minimum length 2. Besides that black line is pretty noticeable and annoying.
What we need please is a SEPARATE scroll bar for the today screen. I'd donate straight away for that.

I only want a program to get rind of the today screen scroll bar not for evenything, an alternative i wouldn't mind is a program to make the scroll bar less that 10px which is the current minimum. what exactly do you mean by separate scroll bar?
What I (and I'm pretty sure the others) mean is:
We want to be able to scroll up and down on the today screen without an ugly scroll bar AT ALL (an invisible one),
But leave alone the normal scroll bar in all the programs we use. I don't want to get rid of that!
Besides, you can't make it invisible, the registry only allows it a minimum of 2px. To resize it, try SKTools or google/search the forum for the registry hack.

this is the reg hack:
To change the thickness of the scrollbars at the right/bottom of documents larger than the screen, adjust...
For the horizontal (bottom) scrollbar:
HKLM\System\GWE\cyHScr = 9 (DWORD decimal)
For the vertical (right) scrollbar:
HKLM\System\GWE\cxVScr = 9 (DWORD decimal)
The default thickness is 13. You can set the value to pretty much anything you like > if you dont wanna see it > 0
How about a vertical side bar that works like a Mac dock that enlarges the icon and shows the name (think pocketCM when you scroll over the alphabet) you finger over??? Fully customizable where you could add programs, links to websites, or contacts???
What do you all think?
Thanks,
Q
I want to thank Idostang for his great theme here. I wanted to just personalise it a bit for my own style and probs go out to his awesome work.
Fully landscape and SPB 2.12 compatible.
Things I changed:
- Left to right gestures for now, launcher and mru screen
- Left to right gesture for three contacts pages
- Added data connection icon to the top of the now screen
- Changed the top bar in the launcher, mru and contacts page
- Added the option of using the backlight feature in SPB shell to the now and mru pages
- Removed the additional digital clocks in the analog screen (why have digital when you analog?)
I hope you enjoy this and feel free to feedback all!
This is GREAT! Is there any chance that you could convert to 320x320?
I'm not the origonal author and so didn't setup all of the pictures etc, you would have to refer to my link for the origonal author.
Savok,
First of all, great tweaks to the theme!
One thing, I noticed on your screenshot, that the contacts page has the bottom right corner button for opening the phone book... but mine doesn't have that... any idea why? And where do I change that in the qa_layouts file?
Love this skin, but I love to see two changes:
First, I'd like the backlight setting up where the weather icon is, and the weather icon back down where the Backlight is.
Two, I'd love a calendar page in place of the MRU.
How easy would it be to do those two things?
Oh, and can we use themes with this?
I have been creating basic widgets that just access specific mobile webites (similar to those created and published by Mobility Digest). Using their template creates scroll bars on my widgets. What can I do to get rid of the scroll bars? The MS Widgets do not show scroll bars even when scrolling is needed.
Thanks in advance.
In the html tag for the website add the tag "scroll=no". This will remove the scroll bars, and keep the scrolling capability for "Touch" use.
Is it possible somehow to make nicer icon when I am puting some web favorites on my homescreen ? On Menu - Add shortcut -... To be specific, I am sick of standard facebook app that came with the phone and I want to use m.facebook.com instead, when I make shortcut to this page on my homepage I get some ugly icon with really small FB icon of frontpage. Can I somehow put there real facebook icon ? Or at least 1x1 photo of the page that I want to go with this shortcut ? So my goal is to have nice icon, like Facebook widget has but in a way that this icon is starting m.facebook.com page, not preinstalled FB app. Is it possible and how ?
Tnx a lot
you can use better cut to create custom icons. You can also find different icon packs by searching for icon packs in market.
Tnx a lot, the app is not bad but can I see somewhere how do those icons in icon pack look !? Because there are at least 100 of packs there and I dont know how do they look or even do they have Facebook app ? How can I put icon for gsmarena.com page when there isnt one in those packs ? Can you please explain me if you know how. Can I cut the photo in browser or something ?
Tnx a lot
you basically just have to download the pack, and once installed look through it. Then uninstall if you don't want it. A bit of a pain, but the only way to do it, that I know of anyway. You can also read the reviews and go by that. Some comments are helpful, giving a brief description of the icons sometimes. There is also an option when using better cut to use your own pic, I haven't tried this, but I suppose if you had your own pic of an icon, you could use that.
Ok, tnx a lot, I guess that I will have to try some packs then. But this UI on this app is fugly...
