Ultimate Launcher

[badchad]

I really enjoy Ultimate Launcher. I mainly use it to have a dedicated weatherpanel tab.

The only thing I don't like is that certain homescreen links cannot be placed in a tab. For instance, I can't add "tasks" or "date and time" to a tab, and a few others. Does anyone know a way around this?

Okay you stumped me for a second there. Okay I was able to get date and time linked. You need to do something a bit different.

The link is: \Windows\ctlpnl.exe
The Parameter is: cplmain.cpl,16

NOTE ctlpnl.exe has no icon so you will have to pick something else or use and XP icon.

This will work to add Time and Alarms. I will see if i can figure out tasks too. Do you mean Task Manager?

Trying this one... So far I am loving it..

Spent all that time loading in the IPhone theme, just to take it out and load this in. This is much better that dealing with all the issues with WAD and WAD3. Easier to customize and everyone that has seen it thinks it looks better than the IPhone theme from before.

No.

I meant "tasks" as in my "to do list" (e.g., take out the trash, pick up dry-cleaing, etc). If you go under normal "settings" for your today screen, it's listed a simply "tasks".

I assume it must be some sort of exe., but I can't find it.

That's the text I'm talking about.

Also, I've set up 3 tabs, but after a period of inactivity, the Today screen only shows the UL tabs, without showing the tab's contents.

For example, I have one tab labeled "HOME" that I have linked to the SPB Phone Suite Plug-in. However, upon hitting the power button to turn it on, I have to click on the "HOME" tab in order to see the plug-in.

Can I set up UL so that upon powering up, it shows the HOME tab's contents by default?

This one is easy...just add a new icon, and find the .lnk at the following path:

"\Windows\Start Menu\Programs". While in there, the tasks link is labled as "Tasks.lnk"
