6.1 start menu
 
I know I've seen this before, but I can't find it with any search (probably searching the wrong terms). What's the name of the cab that brings back the 6.1 drop down start menu?

your probably looking for Quick Menu http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-...menu-v2-7.html

You can also try Awesome Start Menu http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=587631 . Its a pretty nice program

if you're looking for the orignal win 6.1 start menu as opposed to the manilla start menu, i haven't seen a cab for it but I just do the registry edit to get it back. here are the instructions:

It adds a TF tab for programs (although it is call favs or something like that IIRC)

It also brings back the cascading 6.1 start menu. It works super.

I am running manila 2..5 now so I'm not using it, but it worked super when I had the stock ROM running.

Here is "awesome start menu" which is what I use now:

Re: 6.1 start menu
 
Along these lines, I generally like TF3D on my WM6.1 Stock ROM. My main dissatisfaction is the fact that the Start Menu shows only 30 Items, and then I have to go to "All" and scroll through everything to find the one I want.

What I would like is the ability to add a "Folder" rather than an "App" to the Start Menu, that would allow me to categorize my Apps and make them dramatically more accessible. Selecting one of these Folders would then bring up a listing of just those apps that I have put there. Having these in the similar 10x3 arrangement of the initial Start Menu in TF3D would be ideal, but a simple listing would work also.

Is there a way to accomplish this without too much difficulty? I know Mobile Shell and other launchers will replace the entire interface, but I would prefer to keep what I have in the default TF3D, but just tweak it a little to be more functional.

Thanks.

That's easy Don, hook the phone to your LT with ActiveSync.

Then go to Windows/Start menu/Programs. Once you're in there, right click & create a new folder & name it whatever you want (you can see the one I created called "applications", I have all my most used everyday apps listed in there so I can get to them in one click with no scrolling))

Then drag/copy whatever existing shortcuts from outside the folder into it. After that, I usually delete the original shortcut.

Re: 6.1 start menu
 
Quick question, maybe someone can help me out...

If I have customized icons for my slider, will the programs tab not match?

And if so, is there a way to fix this? I really enjoy the drop down menu
