Re: What are you using to make the X-button close programs?

Re: What are you using to make the X-button close programs?

Magic Button looks like crap on my Treo 800w... what gives? The bar for active applications overlaps and the ok button is not displayed correctly... I love the idea of Magic Button and I dont really require anything else.. I wish I could get it to look right.

Re: What are you using to make the X-button close programs?

I learned that the Magic button display is right next to the "X" (barely visible). I mean right next to it. One can change from two display modes. It's taking me a while to get used to it, and I still find a program still open now and again, but I'm learning. Hey, the program was free and not full of a lot of other features I didn't want.

Best of luck,


Stan

Re: What are you using to make the X-button close programs?

After trying pretty much every task manager I've settled on WkTASK. It's by far the best in my eyes.... this one displays right... works flawlesly and can be skinned..

Check it out.

Now, I have to agree. I tried them both now too, and like tman better. I checked out WkTASK, but it had to many bells and whistles for me. I'm sure it's a great program, but not for me. So far, tman has my vote. I don't use the stylus much and want somthing I can use without one. Tman is as close as I can get so far,

Re: What are you using to make the X-button close programs?

Well I took your suggestion in using tman and love it.

Here lies my problem:
I hit the landscape mode and now it's stuck in either landscape left or right. The screen looks the same but the d-pad controls are turned either way. Is there a program to fix this or do I have to do a hard reset? I uninstalled the program but that didn't change my d-pad back.


-Andrew

edit: I did a hard reset

Re: What are you using to make the X-button close programs?

to get my programs to close, i remove the battery door and then remove the battery and then reinsert the battery and battery door. This is the best method i found,...
