Menu software like WA

[TauTau]

Hi,

is there some software that does the same with the Startmenu as Wisbar Advance? WA just bogs the device down too much, and I just loved that menu...

I like SmallMenu:

Looks nice, I'll try that, thanks...

Vijay, thx for the Small Menu tip! I too loved the functionality of WisBar Advance, but it was bringing my Cingular 8125 to a crawl, now I have cascading menus at least.

I noticed your screenshot and the Calendar|Contacts softkeys menu bar missing and the larger start bar w/ notifications, and wondered if that was the results of your uber programming skills. So I did a little investigation on the forums, and fournd out that of course it is. I'm guessing that VJToggleToday is still in alpha stage for WM5 judging by your latest post. I will try this out as soon as I get home (forgot my USB sync cable today) but I was wondering if the WM5 version of ToggleToday takes the place of both ToggleNew and ToggleStart for earlier version, and does it work in landscape?

And by the way, thank you for the great utilities you've already developed for the PocketPC, you're very a proficient and talented developer.

zoetrope - hey, thanks for that!
I'm currently on hiatus, Mrs Vijay555 recently popped out the little subversion, and so I'm getting used to his own copious releases.

However, yes, the screenshot is showing a very early screenshot of my PhoneAlarm skin (and custom SideX skin, right hand side, 4 little dots), and the old WM2003 ToggleStart etc.

However, I've just moved the skin over to WM5 yesterday, and VJToggleTodayII alpha is working well on my Mio A701 and other WM5 devices. Yes, it replaces both the old apps.

The functionality of the alpha is pretty much fine, I need to implement tray hiding, but I'm still deciding whether to go for a route to make a bigger, more bells and whistles app, or keep it simple and cleave it into two different apps.

Don't forget, VJToggleToday II can be configured by launching with the "-config" command line.

If you want more one handed usage, I also use VJOkButt to replace the Close Button etc.
