Ever create a theme you thought was excellent for your device, but to your dismay you can’t change the text of the font or the color of the task bar or command bar?
With Max TTM you can, among other things! For now were just going to focus on 3 things; (1) Command bar text (2) Task bar Text, and (3) command bar and text bar color.
Note: I did not create this nifty little app, nor am I taking credit for it, if you wish to find out more about the creator of the app or other opinions regarding this app
here is the link.
What I wish to do is bring this app to the attention of ppcgeeks.com users as well as my wonderful TP2 community in a simple way so that others may enjoy it.
I have included the screen shots to give you an understanding of what the app looks like when you are tweaking it to your liking, and what the final product may look like too.
HOW TO:
Since we are just focusing on those 3 items (text for Task bar, Command bar, and color of bars) there are only 2 tabs you must access to edit these items. The tabs in question are the 2 tabs you will see in the first 3 shots,
WM6.5 Tab, and
Color Tab.
WM6.5 Tab:To change your Task bar and command bar
COLORS individually go to the WM6.5 Tab. Under the Component list you can choose whether you want to edit the color of your
TaskBar,
SoftKeyBar, or
Both. Then to get your bars to look like the ones you see in the pictures, under
Change Method list choose
Solid Color, finaly you can now begin to tweak your colors to your preference under the
Solid Bar Color Selection. Once you have decided on 1 single color or two individual colors you can hit the
Convert button and then the
Trefresh soft button. Now you may exit/soft reset (you are prompted) or move on to the
Color tab.
Color Tab:To change your
CommandBar Text or
TaskBar Text you must click the drop down list under
Theme Color and choose what function you wish to edit. Click on the
Enable box to place and check in it and then you may begin to tweak your text color as you did in the last tab. When you reach a desired color hit the
Activate button, and then the
Trefresh soft button. Now you may exit/soft reset (you are promted), best results if you soft reset.
Now that you have an understanding for how to use the app you can tweak, edit test, to your liking. I have used this app for 3 months now with no issues. Keep in mind I only have used the 2 Tabs mentioned and the
Customize Tab. Use other tabs at your own risk. I have never had any issue with this app but if you are not sure please stick to the tabs I recommended.
Finaly I recommend you install the app on your storage card. That way you can back up your likes and easily tweak your dislikes, and simply access it whenever. After you install you can search in the Programs Files> MaxTTM and read the creators notes for further info. I was once able to change all the color on the (UI Text) TP2 but I have not been able to replicate that action. I am unsure if its due to the upgrade in MS.NET 3 to 3.5 or what?
There are a few other functions within the app but again I am not sure if they all work. The point is to know that the app is simple to use and you can play with it as you desire. ENJOY!
My apologies for all the pics, I just wanted everyone to fully get a clear pic
of what the app does EXACTLY.
