okay...for the one I wanted to work on...I extracted the .cab and there was no .dll in there....

edit: Oh and I downloaded those two things you put up wolf, but looking at the hex of the resourses means nothing to me...it's just a bunch of numbers.... I have no idea how to change anything.

Hi -
I've asked about this in a different forum, but never had a reply. Figured I'd try here, because this is definitely a "theming" issue:

The only things in WM that I've never seen reskinned for "finger-friendliness" are the pull-down menus in standard apps like File Explorer and (especially!) Pocket Outlook. I'm talking about the menus on the top bar of the app, just below the taskbar. Here's a pic of the biggest offender - the "Show" menu in Pocket Outlook:

You need to use this stupid pulldown constantly in Outlook if you want to access folders other than the basic Inbox, and like many people I have quite a few. It's almost impossible to navigate the pulldown without a stylus. Just trying to click the "+" to expand the Inbox folders is an exercise in frustration. In fact, this one menu is the only reason I still keep the stylus attached to my Omnia -- and I'd sure love to remove it!

The menus at the bottom of the screen have now become totally finger-friendly in the various WM 6.5 ROMs. So does anyone know how to reskin that top pulldown to look similar?? Anyone who uses Outlook would be forever in your debt, because this is the #1 usability problem still remaining. THANIK YOU!

You mean something like this:


Check out Adrynalyne's 6.5 ROMs:

Your right, I usually try to include you two in referals to 6.5, I only mention him first (out of habit mostly) because I have used his since he first started it!! All three of you are doing fantastic work!!!!!

@ rvonder....blazingwolf is right, they all have the menus I pictured, and can all be found here:http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/forumdisplay.php?f=83

They are all good, but all a bit different as well, just read the listings of what each include and use the one that suits your needs/likes best!!!!

*sorry again blazingwolf, thanks for catching me, I like to give credit where due!!!

Get the newest build of 6.5. Available from me, Adrynalyne and bgill and the pull down menu will be more finger friendly.

OK, now I'm really confused. I've been running Adryn's latest ROMs for some time now (no offense to you or the other wonderful chefs intended!), and am currently using his 3.9.2. But I still have the same old pulldowns - in fact, the screenshot in my post was taken right from my Omnia.

Do I have to do or change anything manually to turn on the modified pulldown menus? I do have the modified popups...

Thanks, Rob

Image from my ROM version 8. I'm pretty sure it will be the same in the latest ROM from Adynalyne and bgill.

Adrynalynes latest ROM is version 4.
