Hi,
First to avoid the confusion, I'm NOT looking for the transparent curtain in TF3D, im not using TF3D.
I've got many nice wallpapers for today screen, however, the top (the bar that contains: start button, network signal, battery icon) & and bottom bar (2 soft button) make this unpleasant.
I've searched around and came across SkinMobile 5 & VJToggleToggle/Today ... however, it looks to me like they don't support WM6.1, nor WVGA.
SkinMobile5 v1.1 is what i tried, and it doesn't provide transparency, and has to be run in background
Could any one offer me a solution to make these bars transparent so I can see my wallpaper fully?
I thought these should be some png files that I can set transparency to?
Thanks...
guys... help please... How come all of my questions never attract any reply?
there are quite a few posts with replies out there mate

Well i can 't find ANY when using search on transparent menu,
so if anybody know a link please . . . .?
i hope due to the wm6.5 wich has actually transparent windows task bar and bottom menue bar
it might be possible to get an mix version also for the diamond.
or only an tsk file which has this "colour for transparence"
would be realy cool
if anyone has it please send me an pm
greets
That's EXACTLY what I was thinking of !!
I've been trying to modify one of the Pocket PC Themes (a .tsk file), but unfortunately couldn't find no transparancy options for the top & bottom bars as you indicated ...
I used Netswap ThemeMaker X (TMX) & Microsoft Pocket PC 2002 Theme Generator.... Perhaps there is an advanced software somewhere that could actually help...
anyone got it solved

Mate,
Did u try this ? This is for WM6.5
Never got a chance to try it myself but looks promising
Give it a try but start from here
It will work on WM 6.1 & 6.5 + any Manila version
It may be possible for WM 6.5 with MaxTTM, but not for WM 6.1, MaxTTM can only change the icons of the taskbar but not the transparency. Hope someone comes out with an answer for the transparency - ( please note that the transparency is required only for the taskbar and the command bar - not the taskbar icons nor the softkeys) - Thankyou.
Edit1: Maybe something like below:

WM6.1 top/bottom bar transparent (not TF3d user)
I would also like to have this transparency... if anyone knows please share... thanks !!
so it's not possible with windows mobile 6.1??

Nope...
use hdwall just use the search function or:
1. Take your wallpaper
2. creat to new pngs one called mysoftkeybar.png and the other mytaskbar.png or whatever you like. (480x52 Pixel)
3.put the top of your wallpaper first 52 rows (sorry for my english) in the taskbar.png and the bottom 52 in the softkeybar.png.
4. Copy theme into \Windows\ folder
5. Edit the registry entries:
\\\registry\HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Softkeybar\SoftKeyBarImage
to your pngs
same for taskbar
and reset device.
but i highly recomend to use hdwall much easier
oh i neary forgot your wallpaper image should now be 480x692 pixel's for the normal today (crop of the bars)
for manila use the normal wallpaper

Guys, the answer to all your wet dreams can be found right here.
Hi All,
I've just installed sprintmenuicons.cab to get the really nice looking icons at the bottom, but it's missing the small icon and the larger transparent picture that appears when swiping for the stock tab. I assume that this is due to the Diamond not having the stock tab present. Is anyone artistic enough and technically capable of adding this to the cab file?
Also, is it possible that we could start a menu icons thread here with attached screenshots and tabs that work on the HD? We've got clocks and top bars, but I've not seen a menu icon thread.
Cheers, A.
i'm also looking for the stock icon for sprint tab. thanks
can anyone offer the stock icon for sprint tab?

how to enable clock and battery in title bar of wm6.1???
I have been searching a lot for a solution to enable BOTH the clock and the battery indicator in the title bar of stock ROM of my Sprint Touch Pro wm6.1, but I have had no success. Does anyone know of a good registry hack to do this?
Microsoft must be very stupid! Why do they make us choose between either have the clock or the battery? Don't they know that we need both? How about an easy way of letting the user choose which icons should be seen on the title bar?
I wish a nice programmer would come up a program to re-design the title bar and the comm manager so that clicking on the title bar would open up a nicer comm manager with big finger friendly toggle switches for all kinds of things or what ever the user want to be there. I would be glad to donate.

BattClock 1.2 is a good concept, but the clock and the batt are too small. Kind of strains my eyes. I wish this program was able to get an independent battery icon in the title bar instead of trying to fit the battery and clock in the same spot.
Hi
Alternately use pbar as task manager instead of HTC one, have batt clock, BT/ Wifi/ Phone on off options in taskbar with system info and few shortcuts of most opened programs. Been using it since WM 5 times. The best of lot
im just looking for it to work in 6.5 like it did in 6.1 battery when your in tf3d and the clock when you have any window open.

pbar does not work with TF3D on my Sprint Touch Pro. It freezes TP3D. So it is not an option.
A simple solution for having both clock and battery in title bar of wm6.1
New version of Ariel Battery v2.1 has the ability to be placed anywhere along the title bar of wm6. Unlike other battery applications, it is a simple application that uses very little CPU. It gives you a battery guage and it writes the percent remaining underneath the battery guage. You can adjust the colors of the battery too. It is just like the iPhone's battery icon, but you can customize this one's color and location along the title bar. Just click on the Ariel battery in the title bar of wm6, click tools, setup, and on top of menu find where it says, "Pos:" and use the left-right arrows to move the battery icon anywhere along the title bar you want. I wish Microsoft was smart enough to have included a little app like this in wm6. So thanks to the maker of Ariel Battery, my battery problem is now solved!!!
so could we have the clock only show in landscape with this ariel app?
Hello, all.
I have tried searching to no avail.
While experimenting with different roms, I know certain roms come with the app drawer reflecting 5 apps going across the phone instead of the stock 4. My question is: Is there some kind of flashable file that can make the app drawer show 5 apps going across it?
Thanks in advance.
I use adw launcher and it can hold 5

Yea, but I'm one of the few people that like Sense. I was hoping one of the devs had made a flashable file that I just wasn't able to find.
One thing thats different about android and WM is the fact that it isn't as easy to make a flashable file for ALL ROMs. What happens is in this case for example is the rosie.apk has been modified to show 5 x 5 icons. That rosie.apk also contains some the graphics that make up the rosie (some are in another apk as well). So what would have to happen is someone would have to create a rosie.apk for each style of rosie currently available or maybe someone would create the file just for you. They could most likely do it if they new what rosie you were using. In WM it was a simple modify a registry setting or add something to the registry.
OH and just as many people like Sense as people that don't. I like it.

Hi! Can anybody tell me how to adjust the size of the task bar and menu bar on my TP2 (WM 6.5 stock rom from Sprint)? I want to maximize the Rhodium's big screen when I use Word Mobile. The task bar and bottom bar makes the screen look cramped when I write emails in landscape mode. I've been looking for a registry tweak or an application which could do this, but I have'nt succeeded yet. I have tried Advance Configuration Tool but it did not work. It would be nice if there's a taskbar and menubar that would not occupy that much space, probably just an icon on four corners for some functions like the Menu, Exit, etc. Or a minimizable taskbar.. I'll appreciate it if someone could give me links.. Thanks for reading this!
No can do.

Ah, so this can't be done? Too bad.. Is there any option? Ive tried transparent taskbars but it's only transparent on the theme. Thanks for the quick (and concise answer)!
