Well, technically attachments are enabled, however, when I tried to add one, it said the max length was one byte. Might take me a couple hundred thousand posts at that rate.

Here is the registry hack for the softkeys on the today screen:



ALWAYS BACKUP YOUR REGISTRY FIRST



To change the softkeys on the Today screen

The left-hand softkey settings are at 'HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\1 12', the right-hand softkey


settings are at 'HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\1 13'

The 'Default' string value can be changed to whatever text you wish to have displayed

The 'Open' string value can be changed to the program you wish to run when the softkey is pressed

For example, to change the left-hand softkey to start the Messaging program (text messages and emails) you would set:



HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\11 2\(Default) = Messaging

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\11 2\Open = \windows\tmail.exe

That'd work for completely replacing the softkeys, I but I want to insert my program into the menu (right softkey), not completely replace them.

Hmmm...

This guy might know how since he replaced my entire Right softkey with a "New" menu that is customizeable.

Maybe it's a lead maybe it's not, but hope it gives you an idea one way or another...

Personally very happy with my PicDial right softkey If I need one of those "Other" contacts I look them up on PocketBreeze's ContactBreeze, or fetch it from the built-in contacts.

Btw your idea of a context menu when holding down on a pic makes me a happy muppet. Thanks for what you have done sofar.

That's going to be kinda hard. that right soft key on the 700wx is tied into the Phone app overlay.

Watch when the system boots and you'll see the real softkeys (phone and calendar) are "covered up" by Palm's app.

Palm's apps (there are 2) are a mishmash of .dll files and are actually registered as hidden TodayPlugins.

Not even WM5NewMenu (saman's app) will overwrite Palm's (I use his app but via a hardkey). He won't be able to help either...in fact no one at XDA will until the 750v comes out on Vodaphone in October. sorry!

Wideawake: good to hear! I'll upload later. lol

Here it is.

(Thanks to Wideawake for fixing the attachments issue)
