Hi everyone,
Take a look to this AppGroup Widget idea:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Do you think this is a cool way to group apps and present them in a nice looking widget?
The widget should be fully customizable:
- Stroke / outline color and size
- Group Title color
- Group background gradient color
- Widget background color / alpha transparency level
If possible, customizable number of apps in column, 4 or 5.
The widget should be available in different sizes:
4x3
4x2
4x1
2x2
2x4
1x4
The widget should function just to launch the app when the icon is pressed.
The "gear" icon in the top left is for widget settings (add / remove apps from group).
Now, to be honest, this is just an idea
I am not Android developer.
So, if you are a developer and would like to pick this for your project, please do so! If you think this is cool and add more "visual options" to our Android platform.
To be honest, I have not seen widget like this so far. Apologize if I am wrong.
But I am thinking this kind of visual grouping to easily distinguish between apps groups and quick access.
And to SHOW that Android can display apps in a UNIQUE compelling, nice looking way! Not just GRID of icons!!
What do you think? Any taker?
Please, before Apple/Microsoft took this idea for their next thingy!
Wow! I have been looking for a widget to do this exactly, too bad this is just an idea at the moment cause I think this is exactly what Sense needs to be complete atleast for my needs.
If we're throwing ideas around... what about collapsible groups or tabbed groups? Also rather than only support apps within, how about allowing any 1x1 app/shortcut/widget. Why stop at only allowing 1x1 children? (as long as I don't have to code it). Just random thoughts.
That requires extra click to launch the app?

Only when the group is already collapsed or hidden by another tab. The payoff is more virtual space to organise apps within. There's nothing new in the ideas as they're used extensively in desktop guis so the use cases are well established.
App Organizer is similar to this idea, but your idea seems better.
I would totally go for this!
Yeah, I have not seen this yet. It should bring more visual customization option for Android.
I would certainly buy this widget for sure !
Damn, I wish I know how to code on Android
I have contacted the Apps Organizer developer and see if he/she is interested in implementing this as feature or new product.
Looks like my earlier post didn't take...
The biggest hindrance of this is its inability to integrate with the normal home screen UI; Programs cannot be dragged into it, nor can a drag event be sent to the widget. All configuration would have to be done through a separate activity.
This will certainly get the widget downranked in the marketplace, but that shouldn't stop us.
I have made a few similar projects before that between them cover all the code for a basic group widget. I will play around with making a prototype, but no promises on release right now.
If the OP could post some image templates for the frame and header that would be helpful for future work, but for now the prototype will just be a solid background with icons.
A clueless question: would integration into Home be improved if this could be implemented as a live wallpaper rather than as a widget?
Its a very good idea, but again the drag action is claimed by the home app to pan the screen.
As a status update, I have ported the first gen app/shortcut icon code from my previous project to a clean object based method. I am now working on building a custom view to show the list and perhaps run drag/drop interactions for the config activity. By implementing it as a view, the code can be used in the widget and the activity with no need to maintain two copies of the same interface.
dev neeeeeeeeeeded
Got a working app centric custom grid view, but turns out that is completely useless, as Android is "too secure" to allow custom views in widgets.
Unfortunately, the only apparent way to do this as an actual widget is to make a grid entirely out of linear layouts (as grid layout is not supported for widgets), and use image buttons as the icons.
I will see how nice I can get it looking with linear layouts.
The supposed security of android is turning out to be a real hindrance; this isn't the first project I have taken on that had to be feature cut or abandoned because of it.
It's been released
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=726809
The brilliant developer of FolderOrganizer made it. I just helped him with this idea, testing and creating skins.
Wauw.. What an awesome idea
I will try this at once!

REQUEST
I've been working on this using Basic4PPC, and it's coming along quickly and nicely. But, I'm using the unregistered version!
I initially wanted to charge a tiny fee for the app, but I have a better idea. If I could get donations to get a proper license for Basic4PPC, then I'll release it and any subsequent versions and updates as freeware instead. Hell, I'll open source the buggers.
In addition to this, it means I finally have a development platform I can use to make the apps that I've always wanted to. I have the skills, just need the tools: so you can get more apps in the future!

Alrighty: So, I gave up on looking for stuff, downloaded Basic4PPC, scraped up some of my old VB knowledge and got cracking. I'm now working on the application myself.
Basically, the feature list for this application would be:
Features
Fullscreen landscape mode
Configurable colours
Configurable fonts
Wishlist
Windows Alarm integration
Dim backlight to 20% while running
Button to enable Aeroplane Mode
The Features List is the must-haves, and the wishlist is the would-be-awesome-to-have.
The iPhone version charges $0.99 for the application. I'd gladly pay $5 for one for our PPC.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That's pretty much the feature list that I'm aiming for. Nice and simple. Working with text is a ***** though, Labels suck. Will be moving to something slightly more exotic I think instead.
What's Currently Working:
It displays time.
Simple colour customisation.
Simple gesture support.
What Needs To Be Done:
Change rendering engine: move to proper rendering so as to do rich text formatting.
Integrate some form of alarm functionality.
Adjust backlight
Some functions may be hard to do because of B4PPC, but we will see.
Post your requests here!
you can do whatever you want with tools like RLtoday, XIAMultitheme, SPBmobileshell, etc...
I know all about skinning today plugins and shells... this is slightly different
What I want to see is just an application that is plain fullscreen that displays the clock, and possibly will allow you to set alarms in it. Nothing fancy.
There doesn't seem to be anything like that for WinMo currently?
Kind of funny to tell someone what they can do with rlToday when they have an rlToday theme in their signature.
I would love to see something like this for the Tilt. Make a great travel clock.
Maybe this : http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/time/?en
Simple Clock 0.1
here is a program i just made in .NET
Its called Simple Clock
Instructions :
Just extract it and run the exe on your ppc
Requirments :
Windows Mobile 5/6 & 6.1 (tested on WM 6.1, HTC Wizard)
.NET CF 2.0
Download:
see attached
this is really cool... hope someone develops it.
Same here hope someone develops this app very useful
Nice work ather! One step closer

any screenshots?
If you *really* want to see how nasty it currently looks using Labels... sure, I'll post some up in a tick
ur Welcome, i'll try to do the wish list
If you could, I'd be ever greatful! I'm loving writing this app myself actually, although mine will be less featured than yours
Currently implementing gestures to launch configuration panels
I'll upload a screenshot in about 5 minutes.
Apologies for the double post: Screenshot is up.
Gestures are done for now. Down to Up opens the config menu, Up to Down closes the application.
I'm thinking left to right to go to another timezone perhaps?
Nice idea. This app should run always, so i think you should add your app to the S2U2 exclusion list (or however S2U2 works to prevent starting itself).
Are you going to add an option that the display is always on? Besides that it would be nice to adjust the backlight through the options so the battery drain can be controlled.
hmmm Gestures, nice idea..have u figured out the Colour and font changing ?
Changes :
added function to display Operator Name
Changed Background to Black and Clock to Red
Added Down Gesture for Exiting
Now full screen
Working on :
Dimming backlight
customization
Ps. if you want, i can make it to use a picture as a Background too
Not yet, but I have an idea.
Basic4PPC is a bit ick though, which is annoying me. It limits me.
What I'm thinking of doing is loading sprites in for the numbers, allowing people to create their own just using images.
Colours can possibly be done with some trickery using alpha channels.
Display always on? Piece of cake!
I'm just working on the config screen now, got all my variables set up for it so I can change it when I switch rendering modes.
I *still* have the issue that I don't have a license to use!
Hello all
Just wanted to thank this community as a whole for all the great work they've done. I'm in love with my N1, rooted with CM and all the good stuff I found on this forum.
After tinkering around with my N1 for quite some time a potentially neat idea occurred to me (hope this is the right spot for it). I use my phone primarily for business use and general functionality. At the same time I tend to nitpick about ease-of-use, convenience and simplicity. My idea (alleging it doesn't already exist) is basically an advanced google calendar widget embedded into the notifications drop down. Obviously, this would turn primary use of the drop down into the said calender, but with the convenience to be able to pull it up in a second while allowing for more effective multi tasking.
I'm not a new to the developers world, but am as far as the Android OS goes. I was hoping a few experienced hands might see this as a nice little challenge. At the same time, for the willing, I would not mind at all attempting this challenge on my own (obviously with some much needed assistance ).
Sorry for the long post, and I look forward to hearing constructive feedback.
Thanks in advance!
Are you thinking more along the lines of something that lists upcoming events, or rather an actual calendar image? I'm not if the latter can be accomplished, but would definitely be willing to start working on something.

You could add a calendar shortcut to the dock using one of the new launchers...

That´s nice, thanx!
Thanks guy, I certainly appreciate all the responses and the warm welcome. Initially I wanted calender functionality inside the notifications drop down because it can be pulled up at anytime without having to switch to any other programs. Often times while writing emails I like to cross check my schedule mid proposal. Two applications/widgets I switch between are the "Pure Grid Calender" and the "Android Agenda Widget". I'm probably going too far here but this would be amazing: Upon touching the top bar initially, it switched to the notifications and the bar lowers a bit (all before actually sliding the menu down). If upon touching the bar, it slid down (that same amount) but with two options, one for notifications and one for calender. you could then slide your finger to the left or right to choose which drop down you want, and proceeded to slide it down and the chosen menu would then appear full screen.
This is probably impossible lol, i have a wild imagination. I can do a better mock-up after work with illustrations if indeed that was too wordy.

Ah I see. Unfortunately, I don't think it's possible to override/replace touching the status bar. You can put things in it, but having 'two' of them with left/right swipe I don't think is user-replaceable.
However, there ARE apps that let you put any shortcut you want in the Notifications Tray:

I think your thinking of something along the lines of SBSettings for the iphone os?
@ paul Thank you for that information, if nothing else thats very useful.
@ zKilla: i am not familiar with iphone at all, i made the bold move to go straight into the world of android . But after doing some research that seems like it would be a great compromise.. only problem is if its even feasible to build into the N1
Also if any devs know where i could start poking my nose around, perhaps i figure this out on my own, lord knows itll take a few years tho ha

Suggestions
1) App drawer needs to be faster.It is very slow at the moment.
2) App drawer dock needs more that 2 icons.(say 4, excluding the drawer icon)
+ability to put your own icons in the tray.
3) It needs screen previews.(+pinch to preview)
Thanks for you suggestions. We will let our developers know. It's a beta version and we will keep improving. You can email us as well [email protected].

Hi all,
I posted this screenshot on Twitter last night and had some interest:

"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",

So thought I'd show how I did it.
Yes, and before you say anything - I know the icons aren't quite lined up, but on screen you don't really notice (and it was late, I was tired, and I didn't want to start messing with images! Well, I know 8.25pm isn't late, but I had a busy day, ok? lol)
In the flesh:
So, I'm running MIUI 12.3 on my Milestone (great ROM!), but I doubt that matters - you just need LauncherPro as your Launcher and you should be good to go. It doesn't have to be registered to Plus, but if it is, you'll be able to fit in the battery as well as the clock (by resizing the 4x1 widget to 3x1)...
1) Install LauncherPro and Desktop Visualizer from the Android Market.
2) In LauncherPro settings, set Appearance of the Dock to Custom, and use this image: http://imgur.com/download/N4HuX
3) Under Advanced, set rows to 7 (yes!) and leave columns on 4. This is at the moment the best way I've found the icons line up. It seems the Milestone screen doesn't seem to match other Layout configurations I've seen!
4) You'll also want to Hide the Status Bar.
5) Get the icons from here and download to your SD card: http://cl.ly/587f170f67f0e691eec9
6) Using Desktop Visualizer, layout the icons in 3x1 or 1x2 widgets as above, making sure you Clear the icon text after you select the program to link the image to.
7) Delete all the items from the dock, and use this transparent icon from here for the centre menu button: http://www.elektrobike-hotels.com/markers/transparent.png
8) The clock is the Digital Clock Widget and the battery is BattStat.
I hope that helps some of you!
The source of the files I've used are here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=781455 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=783946. Thank you to those original posters - without you I wouldn't have even tried! However, I couldn't get either layout to line up exactly so had to make my own instructions.
It may be due to the fonts under MIUI, so this make not line up the same on other ROMs - I'm not sure! You may find the first link above actually works better for you if this one doesn't! I know different ROMs seem to layout things a bit differently!
Nice work!
It needs some fine tuning (size/overlap) and some more icons (modern).
Here's a screenshot on my Moto.

Customize Windows 10 start menu with custom images (even with transparent background) with ease.
It's FREE. Although there's a pro version for donation purposes, there is no difference between trial and pro version in functionality.
You can add tiles for desktop apps, store apps, files, folders, shortcuts and some other actions like shut down etc.
Here are some screenshots of start menus made with Better StartMenu:

Because of Windows 10's new start menu mechanism, there needs to be a helper app running in the background. And there's a store app by which you can pin tiles to start menu.
You can find the helper app on http://www.win10controller.com/betterstart

Oops! Honestly I don't know what they changed on this build. I haven't updated to 10532. And I hope they won't change the transparent option. Does it give tiles a default (current theme's) background color?
I think it would be right to make wider the 2nd section of the app and place icons in the form of a table (vertical or horizontal). Something like this:
Use one column when lots of applications are not very comfortable

Great job. Thank you so much. I want to make one suggestion. Propose to add a batch fixing of tiles. It would be much easier. Thanks again for the work done.
I apologize for my English
You're absolutely right. This feature is a must have too. I hope I can implement it in the next version. Thanks for your suggestion again.
Thanks!

awesome looks better
Meh, stock is fine for me.
If anyone has feature requests please tell me here or email [email protected] and I hope I can implement it in the next update(s).
And what about the ability to create live tiles? might be a cool feature or a useless thing? I mean a tile with two different images (or an image and a text) and animates like other store app live tiles? If you don't find that one a useless feature, I plan to implement it soon. What do you think?

My opinion is that animated tile is not mandatory (menu "Start", we see a very short time), but beautiful. And its presence will grace the start menu.
Offer to make a software update to automatic, and does not reinstall.
And it would be great if you would make the app a desktop and not modern.
Thank you for the work done. Let you will succeed further.
And another question: is there any possibility to create a vertical tile?

Thank you very much for your suggestions. Honestly, I agree with you: nobody waits enough to see the animated tiles on the start menu. It just might be a nice visual but nothing useful. So maybe I need to postpone this one.
You're right about the update thing. It should replace the .exe file with the new one automatically. I hope I can implement this one soon.
About the modern app.. Actually, I can't change the modern app to a desktop app because only modern apps can pin tiles to the start menu (I mean customized tile). This is why we need a modern app besides desktop app.
And vertical tile.. I think you mean a non-standard tile, right? I don't think it's possible because there are predefined sizes for start menu tiles and here's a list of them:

Thank you again for your suggestions and your opinions.
Hi. Update Windows to version 10547 again "kills" transparency tiles.
