[wingzero]

Guys, I found this little app. It's pretty cool and it's FREE.
Name: WM5NewMenu
Homepage: http://www.saman-cz.com /ppc/wm5newmenu.html
Cost: Free
Download: http://www.saman-cz.com /ppc/download.html
or download attached.
What it does: Replace one of your "soft keys" with a "new menu" list. when you hit it, a small list pops up so you can select things like a new...

*email, sms, contact, appointment, etc.
*fully customizalble: add your own "new..." items
*can change order
*show/hide what you want
*choose what softkey and it's name



This app really makes one handed use accessible on this device. Takes about 2 mins to setup and is great for quickly pull out an email or text message, etc...


Tips: in Outlook, moving the d-pad/joystick left or right will shift between your mail boxes such as text messages and gmail easily...no stylus is needed!

WM5NewMenu 2.0 (beta)

There is a whole new version of this program just released (8/21) and it's even better now.

It adds the ability for sub-menus, seperators and (the best part) Quick "SMS to" and "Call to" actions (button "browse - ..." acts as the Contact selector) allowing you to directly call somone via the program

Calling/Texting your regulars has never been easier--in just 2 clicks you'll have your formatted SMS message or making that phone call.

Here's a list of changes:

- Launching by a hardware button
- Cascading menus (up to 6 levels)
- Separators
- Quick "SMS to" and "Call to" actions (button "browse - ..." acts as the Contact selector)
- Configurable positioning
- Context menu
- Copy/cut & paste edit actions
- Keyboard shorcuts (Ctrl+C/X/V for edit actions and Ctrl+N for "New")
- "New items" are now configurable as a submenu
- Backup and restore from file
- Drag&drop

I considered myself to be quite smart but i cant for the life of me get this thing configured, I just cant grasp the concept of its design. Anybody know where i can find a pdf or tutorial?

What are u having problems doing?

[Malatesta]

It's weird, my WM5NewMenu was set up perfectly and even had a little program launch section. Now, none of those program launch. I hit them and nothing happens.

Reinstall doesn't fix it. Dunno. I posted at XDA, maybe it's a bug.

probably but I can say its been working fine for me and I love it. I mean I don't use the calendar much so replacing it was what I needed Thanks again.

well i kinda got it now, my original prob was a bad install, but i still cant quite get the understanding of the param and command extentions do they already exist on my device or is there some kind or package i download to plug these in.... for example what is the cplmain.cpl or ctlpnl as refered to in the screenshots,
Im sure these control the expantion or levels of the toolbar?
