Correct.
I used it for a while for the on/off toggles of Bluetooth and Wifi.

Since the new QuickMenu has been released, and that's in the start menu now, I dont use it anymore! Even thought I don't use it, one of the better purchases I have made for my phone over the years.

I just installed phonealarm, it does work very well. It might be a keeper, however, I likely won't use most of the other features.

Thanks for your input.

You shouldn't need it. that was my point, in the same place that you map the key to get to 2nd today you can map the return key.. Just check the manila button at the top and then name the title of Manila screen whatever you want, I used HOME... then apply to registry. I never had to set the program path.

That doesn't do anything for me. I check the box for Manila and enter a title and press apply to register. I wait a minute and then soft reset but softkey doesn't change.

eenieMINI is right. i was having the same problem as you. what he is saying is in secondtoday point the softkey(left or right) to the secondtoday.exe as with the tf3d file

Softkey for tf3d:
[example as your location may differ]"\Program Files\SecondTodaySecondToday.exe"

Softkey for SecondToday:
[example as your location may differ]"\Program Files\SecondTodaySecondToday.exe"

In essence you point both softkeys for SecondToday and TouchFLO3d to the SecondToday exe file and it should work after that. if not than try a soft reset.

Thanks to both of you. I guess I didn't get it before but you're right. I set the softkey for SecondToday and Manila to the SecondToday exe and it works in both locations. Well that settles that.

I'm trying to use a custom background for my Second Today screen, but it tiles the pic in a 2 by 2 matrix, so there end up being 4 pictures. How do I correct this?

(It's the same pic that's the background as my tf3d, and the pic show up as just 1 pic there.)

Fixed it. The background image I was trying to use was 240x320 (it was left over from the qvga days). The TF3D can handle this and make it the appropriate size; however Second Today could not. So I opened up my picture editor on my computer, changed the size to 480x640, and voila! No tile-ing the pic as the background of second today,

I had this setup before with nu problems. Now it wont wont work. I followed the steps as outlinded and still cant get it. I think the problem came in when I tried to use "Remap Softkeys.exe" to change it before I saw this thread. Well I made a mistake and mapped my right soft key to "Touch Pro Guide". the link deosnt work at all and I cant change it. "Remap Softkeys.exe"doesnt get installed on the device at all, so I cant uninstall it. any ideas?
