To change the softkeys [bottom line of today screen] - Phone or Calendar:
Create
:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112
Values:
(default value)="String" to display on screen [eg sth like "Phone"]
"Open"="Path to program" [eg sth like "\Windows\calc.exe"]
to modify right key use:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113
Example:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112]
"Open"="\\Windows\\calc.exe"
@="Left Calc"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113]
"Open"="\\Windows\\calc.exe"
@="Right Calc"

Ah yes, now i understand my mistake... Thank you very much!
I have an SX66 (PH20B1) and am running WM5 but don't have the Keys settings within my Today folder. Does anyone know how I could change my softkeys?

By default - hose values are not in the registry. Try to ad them.
I'll try adding them then.
Doh! I just saw the cab file, which worked. Thanks!
how do you remove the icons at the bottom of the today screen in WM6?
i have already disabled Tray launch, but those icons still exist...see picture.
Remove the Battery Icon:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\Power]
"ShowIcon"=dword:00000000
Remove the Wireless Manager Icon:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\WirelessMgr]
"Keep"=dword:00000000
remove TrayAp.exe if exist
[HKLM\init]
Launch92=
look in
[HKLM\Software\HTC\TrayApplet]
search registry for tray and see what it comes up with, be careful, backup reg keys before editing
Delete - init_tray.lnk if exist from windows\startup folder.
Look for other links in this folder that might create a tray icon
When you start DFregedit or DFrunningApps, it always installs a tray icon. I believe there is no option to disable this, all you can do is not to close it with close button but with menu>exit. Or be real nice to DotFred and ask him for an option to disable the feature.
There's a blue icon in the corner that I do not know, is it Bluetooth related or a suspend or reset button? Possibly placed their by software you installed or it came with your ROM.
The buttons there are: DFRegedit, Battery, Comm Manager, Rotate Screen, Pshutoff, Bluetooth.
ok will try the removal from the registry, i guess most people love this type of setup - with tray at bottom, i find it not nice to look at, since my icons on top are large and the ones on tray are tiny, no balance...hehehe.
@Paulpax did you use rltoday for your hima ? because I try to use it, but doesn't work properly

yup i use RLTODAY and i edited the skin file to suit me. although the original skin.xml is already OK.
Hi
I am trying to do the same, found the values in the registry, edited them properly with a regeditor, but no changes. After a soft reset, the values are back as before, unchanged...
Any idea, what is happening? PHM registry editor has no "save" option, so I don't know other than to exit the application via "Tools - Exit"

Yes, this can be frustrating. On your desktop PC every change to the registry is immediately permanent, on your Hima it's not always so.
Count to 20, exit reg editor, count to 20, switch off, count to 20, switch on, count to 20, soft reset USING software!, not the hole/stylus method!, check result. Most of the time just using software soft reset also works but not always.
y dnt u guyz use CEregedit..it connects ur ppc to ur pc via USB and copy's all reg entries
please give a download link
ok here u go Maggy
wince regedit : http://rapidshare.com/files/72691245/ceregedit_setup.rar
Thanks a lot, this looks not only better than any xda regeditor, it even looks better than XP regedit! Any idea if a version for editing the XP registry exists?
yeah i have one called Registery Workshop..i will post its link A.S.A.P
im just even using the DFRegEdit that come with the Shekhar ROM, by the way, when u edit the SKIN.XML, u just open it with NOTEPAD, do editing, save, then to APPLY changes, open Settings - Today - Items - RLtoday - Options, the press OK for the SKIN to make the changes....then your TODAY screen changes.
When using the rlToday how did you make the scroll bar on the side go away?

In the skin of rltoday define the plugin height to be <= the space available
Where?
Where i can have this today??please repp...
Is it possible?
Yes. With todayshrink you can get rid of the Softkeynames on todayscreen and get this space free for e.g. todayagenda.
And yes - on all other apps the softkeytext is shown again.
And yes - the softkeys on today work, when pressing the related hardwarebutton.
OK - you have to keep in mind what is located on the hardware/softkey button - haha
I like it....
Just what I needed, My agenda fits perfect now!
Away with the irritating Scrollbar Nice finding

2) LakeridgeSoftware wisbar advance 3 {shareware}
3) SBSH iLauncher 3.1 onwards(not sure about this, but, i guess it does) {shareware}

You're absolutely right on that part. Some of the freewares here actually beat the commertial ones avaliable
I tried without success several softwares to hide the softkeynames :
- Wisbar Advanced : the functionality "hide the softkeys" does not work
- Todayshrink and dcinobar : they hide the softkeys but finally the space is not free (it just hides)
- VJtoggletoday(alpha) works but it hides both taskbars !
Can someone help me to hide just the bottom taskbar ?
I have a HTC P3600 with WM5

look at my Screenshot..... the space is used.....
when you see little icons in bottombar than the "tray" like systray on PC is running. then the space cannot be used by todayshrink.....
Actually with Todayshrink the taskbar is hidden. But my systray disapears on screen... Is it normal?

you do not need to hide softkeys when you still use the systray.... that makes no sense....
so it should hide the systray....
I am sorry not to be clear.
Normally the systray is located just over the bottom taskbar, right?
When i used Todayshrink, the taskbar was hidden but also the systray !! I thought that the systray would be at the same place than the bottom taskbar!
Here is a screenshot.
The taskbar has disappeared but there should be my systray at bottom

NOOOO!!!!
Why??
The systray will not appear when using todayshrink.....
It is for getting more space on today...
Ok, so there is no possibility to have more space by hiding the taskbar but also keeping the systray?

if you activate in Battery Status the trayIcons you have the sysbar back
Ghostrider
I activated the trayIcons in batterystatus but it didn't work
Maybe because I'm in WM5?
On the Tilt you could - using M2DC - assign i.e. iContact to the left or right tab (instead of phone and prg like default). TF3D customizer doesn't have thsi option yet. any hacks or a plan to do this?
Thanks

Really simple actually.
I actually have 2 different .cabs one assigned to the left and one assigned to the right.
for the left I use SecondToday and for the right I use iContact
Here are the reg settings I use.
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila]
"HomeRSKPath"="\Program Files\iContact\iContact.exe"
"HomeRSKText"="Contacts"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila]
"HomeLSKPath"=\Program Files\SecondToday\SeconToday.exe
"HomeLSKText"="Today"
Enjoy!
Thank you sir! I assume you just created a new key "HomeRSKPath" plus value?!

Has anyone been able to add a tab to tf2d to show a list of upcoming appointments from the calendar. All I have been able to find is extra tabs for tf3d. If not does anyone know how to or how I could do it. I see that I a second weather tab can be added.
Sorry for the typo
is it even possible to add extra tabs to tf2d

what I did, as an alternative, was remap the softkey to "secondtoday" (great software for manila2d).

Thanks for the suggestion. I am using "secondtoday" with the PTT button mapped to it. I have SPB diary set to the second today and have it maximized with the calendar tab so it will show about the next 5 appointments and I can scroll a month at a time. Might actually be more convenient the adding a new tab
