hi
great app but the icons for the running programs is painted a little strangely on my device. I get 4 icons painted 2x2 for every program icon. I have an ipaq 210 and changed dpi with realvga, otherwise works great...
thanks.

doesn't work on my omnia,just a blank screen :( Or is wqvga not supported yet?

yes wqvga not supported yet.
what resolution is wqvga? 240x480 or 320x480 ?... I will try to design it, I don't have wqvga emulator currently...

edit: Ok, I had wm6.5 emulator. WQVGA is 240x400, so I need to create one new image for skin with width 400, just wait a couple hours....

Yes that was the problem, the Icon size in GetSystemMetric will also changed if you change the dpi.. try to change it into 192dpi it should be ok...

EDIT: You can try RC2

Sorry, I can't fulfill your request, because main goal of Showcase is not to become Full Features Task Manager. Showcase act as Task Switcher just Like HTC Task Manager.

It's not every time you need to check the process. Another Task Manager like FdcSoft Task Manager is more capable to do something like this. Just Install both Task Manager. Showcase for switching, FdcSoft for controlling. :)

What a nice Task manager!!
I just tried in my device but it doesn't work, surely for the 320x320 resolution.

Hope you'll release a skin also for square screen, soon or late.
Good work!!

Nice app, it is what I was looking for. Just simple finger friendly task switcher. Just maybe if you can add some exception list in the future (for example I don't want to see Active Sync on task list).
Anyway thank you for this app

    For now you can edit the icon using ResHack for Showcase_X.exe, There is 3 Bitmap on resource, Black (#000000) is Transparent color. :D

    The 3 bitmaps you mention are the 3 icons across the new taskbar.

    Im after editing the single icon which is always visable on the home screen. Which is the same as bitmap 129, but doesnt the image have its own resource or not??

    Otherwise if I replace one ill have to do all 3 as otherwise it'll stick out as bitmap 129 needs to match the taskbar as shown below :)

    Thanks

    dude... you've at the very least show all processes... not just applications..

    think about it. without showing all processes to have it running as a task manager, it's just like using HTC's XButton...
    i like the interface btw :)

    +1 It would be awesome to have a tab for the processes, it would be a real task manager :D
