[APP] AMeBa: Adapting Menu Bar for WM6.5.x [v0.5beta - 4/Dec/2009]
 

found this over at xda looks promising...all credit goes to http://forum.xda-developers.com/imag...ine=1232972302



As all you know, in the latest builds of WM 6.5.x the position of start (Win) and close (X) buttons have changed from the task bar (on top of the screen) to the menu bar (bottom of the screen). Therefore, all the applications that modifiy the behaviour of this buttons do not work anymore.

I'm writing this little app to customize the default behaviour of this buttons.

Current features (v0.5) (new features on red):
- Run as service.
- Tap on close button: customizable on HKCU\Software\xTep\AMeBa\CloseTapAction.
- Tap&Hold on close button: customizable on HKCU\Software\xTep\AMeBa\CloseHoldAction.
- Tap on start button: customizable on HKCU\Software\xTep\AMeBa\StartTapAction.
- Tap&Hold on start button: customizable on HKCU\Software\xTep\AMeBa\StartHoldAction.
- Posible values for close actions (CloseTapAction and CloseHoldAction):
* 0 = None: no action is done
* 1 = Default: default wm action (minimize app)
* 2 = Run App: launch a program (configurable on HKCU\Software\xTep\AMeBa\CloseTapRun or HKCU\Software\xTep\AMeBa\CloseHoldRun) with arguments (configurable on HKCU\Software\xTep\AMeBa\CloseTapRunArguments or HKCU\Software\xTep\AMeBa\CloseHoldRunArguments)
* 3 = Close: close the current app
- Posible values for start actions (StartTapAction and StartHoldAction):
* 0 = None: no action is done
* 1 = Default: default wm action (launch default honeycomb menu)
* 2 = Run App: launch a program (configurable on HKCU\Software\xTep\AMeBa\StartTapRun or HKCU\Software\xTep\AMeBa\StartHoldRun) with arguments (configurable on HKCU\Software\xTep\AMeBa\StartTapRunArguments or HKCU\Software\xTep\AMeBa\StartHoldRunArguments)
* 3 = QuickMenu: show QuickMenu menu (faster than runing QuickMenu.exe)
- Use HKCU\Software\xTep\AMeBa\ShowHoldAnimation to show (value 1) or not (value) tap and hold animation.
- Haptic feedback (not tested): customizable on HKCU\Software\xTep\AMeBa\Vibration. Posible values:
* 0 = None: no vibration at all
* 1 = During: vibration activated while taping (until releasing)
* 2 = End: vibration at the end of Tap or Tap&Hold (duration configurable on HKCU\Software\xTep\AMeBa\TapVibrationTime or HKCU\Software\xTep\AMeBa\HoldVibrationTime, set to 0 to disable one of them)

Note: you must restar Ameba Service (for examlple with soft reset or with FdSoft TaskManager) after changing any registry value.

Future features:
- List of apps exclusions for close action
- User interface to configure the app.

Just testing this bad boy out.

Once there is an exclusion list, this app will be a god sent...

Between this and Arkswitch, the 6.5.x close app closing and task switching will be well under control.

I've been using this for the past few days and it's what has kept me on the 6.5.X roms. With it, the new WM roms are perfect!
