let me know when you find the registry key :evil4:

I am still contemplating whether to include manila on MightyROM5.... I think it might get left out :D
Noooooooooooooo say it isn't so. I like Manila. Just to make sure I understand what we are talking about, the term Manila is used interchangably with TF3D right?

I haven't used Titanium. But is it is, does it provide the quick access to the same things as TF3D does without crowding your home screen? Looking at the different forums on how to cuztomize 6.5 makes my head spin. Don't think I have a handle on all the lingo being thrown around either.

Just to clarify, it's not limited to the copper rom. It's the default today plug-in for 6.5 in general.

Titanium is an enhanced version of Chrome which is the Smartphone (non-touch screen Windows Mobile) Today plug-in. Much of the customization of the UI can be done with simply editing the .crp files - which are just XML. They are also named very appropriately (ie LS_LockScene_480_640.cpr defines what your lock screen looks like in portrait if you have a VGA phone). Making new panels (think Tabs from TF3d) is a little more challenging, but mostly because not much has been developed specifically for Titanium, and the stuff that was done for Chrome just doesn't quite get you there. I have no doubt though that development for Titanium will be much easier than it is for TF3d/manila.

You may have also heard the term "Widgets". These have nothing to do with Titanium or the Today screen. These are special types of HTML files that WM 6.5 can use the new PIE infrastructure to display.

Well the key isn't going to be named that. That's how it would appear in an Advanced Config-like utility, though. And I didn't say I was going to look for it, just that I wasn't worried. 6.5 isn't out yet.

Does Titanium allow you to customize the home screen to access the same amount of info as TF3D? Like preview text message, settings menu?

Hafrust 04-10-2009 03:33 PM
Re: WM 6.5 Is it worth it?
 
It doesn't preview messages, and by default it does not have a settings panel, but you can add one.

I downloaded copper this morning, now I realize how much I love TF3D... I'm currently going back to KK's.
