Well that was short lived.
Started Editor loaded a copy of the weather manila and All I get is a preview of a block of rubbish. I must be doing somthing wrong

This happens on Manila Editor, it is the software because of the compression of the images. Use CFC-GUI, it doesn't do that. When I started editing Manila Editor was the first software I tried using and have changed from that since then. I have attached software that I pulled from XDA-Developers website.

Yes, remove this portion of the text from the 26948339_manila file and tab will be removed:

ex.. " <Page Order="8" Name="settings.page" PackageName="HTC" Title="[[IDS_SETTINGSTITLE]]">
<ComponentReference Name="page" Mode9Path="HTC\settings.mode9" Component="SettingsPageComponent" SmartComponent="true" />
<ComponentReference Name="icon_normal" Mode9Path="HTC\icons.mode9" Component="Settings_Off" />
<ComponentReference Name="icon_selected" Mode9Path="HTC\icons.mode9" Component="Settings_On" />
<ComponentReference Name="icon_preview" Mode9Path="HTC\icons.mode9" Component="Settings_Preview" />"

Just remember that only the "physical/visual" tab will be removed. All files and images related to the file will still be on the phone. Do not forget to re-number the "Page Order" appropriately when you are done removing Tabs you want. I'm pretty sure there is a minimum number of Tabs that must be shown but I can't tell you what the number is exactly. I'm usually on the end of adding tabs myself.

so what if i did thi this way????????? ill get advanced config or diamond config and edit the tabs from there.....then looked for 26948339_manila and copied it to storage card...flashed to a new rom and put that file in my windows folder after the flash and soft reset......would that work?

[a_medina626]

To be honest with you, I don't know. I have a version of my 26948339_manila file that I modified on my Storage Card already and haven't used TF3D Configurator in a long time. Every time I switch ROMS I have a folder that I select everything I got and copy it over to the Windows folders all at once for a massive 1 time overwrite. If you want to test it then just copy a non-modified version of the 26948339_manila to the pc and re-name it. Then change your settings with TF3D Configurator or wichever software you use and soft-reset. Then Copy the "new" 26948339_manila to pc and check againts the older one to see if the order has changed. If so then you're good to go. My guess is that it might not work, but I could be wrong. Give it a try and post the results, sounds like something users would like to know. Including myself.

Yes, it should work so long as you stay with a compatible touchflo3d version.
