PS I just sent you a small donation, keep up the great work!

Thank you! It is much appreciated!

The icons in the YouTube video are the final icons for this release, but I will release icon packs in the future.

The reasons I made it come from the side instead of come down the line are:

Aesthetically: Since the QuickDial screen is much larger than the Launcher slabs it would look kind of strange sticking up above everything else coming down the line.

Practically: But mainly I decided to do it that way to save space on the device. If I were to shwo the QuickDial screen coming down the line I would need to create 120 frames of animation, and at 150k each, your device would have over 18MB of animation frames! Making most of the sliding animations generic, I was able to use only 46 frames of animation (only 2 more than the iCube has) taking up only 6.9MB.

I thank you for taking the time to share with me, and I hope that I have answered your question to your satisfaction. If not, let me know and maybe I'll make a larger version with the QuickDial coming down the line.

I had no idea how many frames of animation you included in yours, sorry, that's pretty insane. The custom cube I made had...well...a lot less. I understand, though in the future, one Without quickdial would be neat, as I'd like to just use my own brns and registry edits to make one of the standard 'windows' a quick-dial panel, to keep with the theme. That's not for everyone though, as many are afraid of the registry.

I agree, with Lazy.

It'd be something that would be more useful once a cube config tool came out for this, as it'd require reg editing...but

Adding an extra "page" or two into the rotation and taking out the quickdial, one could use the trick that Polen posted in the VistaCube 2 thread to assign calling a contact to an "icon" and put their picture as the icon.

Thus, you could have a "quickdial" that would be in the standard "pages".

[Musicman247]

Yeah, I'll definitely do that, but not for initial launch. I'll be working on it.

Just watched the youtube video and it looks amazing but will you be able to choose where the contact dailer is located or will it be stuck in the spot you have it in the video?

The Cube is configurable through registry edits as to which screen comes up first. As of right now the APLauncher comes up first. If you were to scroll to the QuickDial and then dial a number, the next time you open the Cube it will be the QuickDial screen that comes up (just like the regular Cube).

Now, there is a registry value called "CurrentCube" which defines which Side comes up first after a reset. So, if you just had to have the QuickDial come up first after a reset you could set that value to 2 and reset. It would still show up as the middle dot, but it would be the first "side" to pop up.

Does that answer your question?

Yes thanks!
