New Today screen app request - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps

Can someone make an app for the Today screen that would allow the blank space on the screen to react to a touch by "pushing" the Today screen items off the screen so i can just see my wallpaper and top & bottom nav bars? Touching the screen that does not cause another Today item to activate would use the blank space on the screen to be used as an action. when touched it would either push the items off the screen or simpy make them dissappear or re-appear... The home screen can get so cluttered with all the notifications and info, sometimes it's nice to just see the background image.
thoughts?

SecondToday, SPB Pocket Plus, etc...

or you could use ultimatelaunch. this would create you multiple tabs which you can access by swiping the screen to the left or right and giving you access to multiple different setups. you can include today plugins into the plugin which makes it very customizable.
cheers

yes, I'm aware of those apps, I was looking for something with more screen effect that could remove the clutter without adding more pages/screens. it's already a linux screen effect in the desktop OS world, i thought it'd be cool to see on a Kaiser/Tilt

Touch Screen APP

Anybody know of an app for the kaiser that has touch screen functions. Like say you tap the today screen twice in a row it shuts the screen of, or something like that, would be pretty nice. ANy ideas?
wktask has that feature, but its in the upper corner. Preferences -> action -> tap in today -> suspend
i love wktask
Great, thanks i'll look into that. So it's not as easy as tapping directly on the screen? I have to go to specific place? Not just suspend, but can i also launch different programs with different pattern touches?
Well, wktask has many features built in. Its basically a task manager, displays running tasks on the top bar, kind of like a desktop(with icons that you can click on). Its great for switching programs/ closing them all. It also has a program launcher that you can map in the action tab, such as verticle scroll. So thus, most of the actions must be in the top bar.
I see. I like the htc task manager and since that app doesn't really do stuff my touch screen recognition, i'll just stay with the htc one. Thanks a lot though.

Today screen keeps scrolling up

Whenever I scroll down (with the scroll bar) my today screen, it keeps scrolling back up to beginning screen automatically.
Only way to avoid this is to scroll all the way down to the bottom and then it stops there. Then I can scroll up to see my today plugins which are in the middle (e.g. if you can scroll 4 times down - 4 screens of plugins - and I want to see my plugins which are 1 screen down the initial today screen, I have to tap all the way down and then tap up 2 times to see the plugins I should have seen tapping just 1 time).
This is so annoying. It seems something preset to have the today screen always at the top (after you browse to other windows, etc.). If at least I can change the "go home" movement to take a bit longer so I can see other today's plugins it will be good enough.
I would appreciate any help.
Thanks.
This was not solved, but explained elsewhere (SPB today plugins). I guess no workaround despite disabling them. Thanks.

Adjusting the scroll bar on today screen?

I have the HTC Home screen. I have all my displays set up to fit the screen perfect. The problem I have is at the bottom I have my calender and it displays my up coming appointment all in a single line. When my next appointment is close its displayed on a second causing a scroll bar to appear on the screen running from the top to the bottom. With this it screws up my home screen appearance. Is there a way to create a small scroll bar just below the HTC Home screen? I noticed on home screen display, a lot of you guys have it this way. How do you get it?
Also is there a way to show only one up-coming appointment only, then the next after it has pasted?? I have the stock calender that came with my tilt.
Slighty off Topic, you could try an app called Today Agenda, that lets you fix the size of the calender display, alter font sizes, headers, etc, etc.
Thanks, but my fonts are small enough. Just looking for something to correct the scroll bar length or to just display one appointment at a time.
Figured it out, just lock the home screen through the customizer app. under home options.

Can I add extra things to the home screen?

I could add extra things to the MS Today screen, can I do the same for the Flo3D home screen? All I have is Call History and Calendar, can't I change this? I only seem to be able to change the tabs at the bottom a bit.
Has anyone found a way to insert other things (links,icons...) to the home screen? Or to take away the calendar/call history links?
Just turn off TF3D, it's a completely useless memory, battery and resource hog anyway. Then put TodayAgenda on your Today screen, it's the best thing since sliced bread. :O)
Any screenshot or preview for TodayAgenda?
Look for Manilla Today Page. It adds another tab to TF3D which functions as a virtual Today screen. This gives you all the beauty of TF3D plus alot of the Today screen functionality.
Sadly it doesn't support all Today screen plugins (I miss PocketPlus desperately), but it is an excellent 'best of both worlds' solution.
The other way is to try SecondTodayScreen. This does as it says and gives you a second Today screen so you can have TF3D running and still access another Today screen with all your plugins on it.

Multiple screens with no scrolling

Hi everyone! How can I make three screens with no scrolling, that is I can't swipe between screens but can select the screen by pinching in and selecting the screen. I need this because I am trying to make a screen where it has shortcuts to go to the next screen. So I want to restrict swiping between screens and only use those shortcuts. Any help is greatly appreciated.:laugh:
Use SSlaucher

Try SSlauncher.
I had exactly what you described on my Galaxy S in it worked perfectly. My screens were set up similar to an old telephone address book. On the right hand side of every one of the 9 screens I had were the numbers 1-9. I was the "home" screen. Under the numbers, that went from the bottom to the top of the screen were short description on what was of that screen. Things like "Home", "Office", "Daily", "Games", "Photo"
It was a joy to use and looked very cool with a smooth transition from screen to screen called "Flow".
One of the nicest things -apart from not having to swipe all the time- was that from the "Home" screen to screen 9 did not mean that 8 other screens had to fly past. The next screed regardless of the number always appeared to be the next screen!
SSlauncher also allows you to switch of "swiping" and even have a different background on each screen.
One warning. Do not be put off buy the developers terrible examples on the Play Store or the learning curve. Go to www.mycolorscreen.? for inspiration.
Don't hesitate to pm for help if you need it.
