Too cluttered? You can easily hide tasks that you dont want to show like activesync by holding down on the task and clicking hide always

Re: What is everyone using to switch between task ?

I had WKtask running on my Mogul but I had problems with it on my Touch Pro. Whenever I made a change on setup it would error out when I tapped ok or done. The changes would still take but the config program would crash.
After seeing the above post of MButton I decided to try that. I installed it last night and so far everything is working nicely. I am giving up the launcher which is one of the main reasons I wanted to use WKtask instead of the HTC task manager. The main plus of WKtask - imho - is that you could swipe across to jump to the Today Screen or swipe down to get the launcher from most applications that you might have open.
Is anybody having good success with both Mbutton and WKtask on a TP?

TIA,
tsp

Right. It still only shows 4 app icons on my device max, have to scroll for others. Turns out I prefer the drop-menu type of switcher.

The HTC one wasn't too bad, the problems were it was terribly slow and it didn't appear on every screen.

In settings (or is it programs), make sure it's enabled to display.

I use task facade. it's a little buggy and will crash every once in a while though.
