These were tested on VGA rhodium manila only. They may or may not work on other versions.
Thanks to xboxmod,
NRGz28, sztupy, 6Fg8, mun_rus

AllPrograms_Tab

v4.1: 3 icon faves or 4 icon faves, 4 icon all programs from soft key, Manila Start Menu compatible
v3a: 4 icon menu, no faves
WVGA Version HERE, thanks to Aussiebum

This replaces the current programs tab.

Change Log:
v4.1 - fixed issue where start menu would launch when fave app was chosen from programs tab. Added 3 and 4 icon faves versions.
v4 - should be Manila Start Menu compatible now
v3.1b - changed faves view to 4 icons wide instead of 3

v3 - dropped standard list, download 2.1a for that one
v2.1b is now improved and is v3a
v3b is standard fave programs tab and "All Programs" soft key opens the 4 icon menu

v2.1 - fixed last row being cut off

v2 - added 4 icon menu





AllBG_RhodiumManila

adds background image to all tabs in portrait and landscape
Change Log:
v2.2 -- updated files to work with start menu(xbmod v1c)
v2.1 -- adjusted preview icon and text to center of screen
v2 -- fixed landscape issue




Notes:
-- The launcher xml zip has all language xml files, so if you need something other than english.
-- older v2.1 original list style of AllPrograms still listed too
-- AllBG_RhodiumManila.CAB and the v3.1b CABS will only work on the rhodium ported manila version

Very nice. Maybe this could be integrated into the new TP2 Manila once xboxmod gets it finished :D

EDIT:: I knew this post would come in handy...

Here is a wallpaper I threw together today for use with the Rhodium Manila Backgrounds 4 All Tabs Mod:

It looks great in both Portrait and Landscape mode too. See other screenshots attached.

Here's the italian xml for program launcher. I added ids_home to it, but you'll need to edit the text for italian using notepad(I just put "Home") since I'm on way to work and didn't have time to get correct word.

Here's a all programs tab for tf3d. I set the left soft key to take you back to home tab, since home tab default right soft key is "Programs". I can set right soft key as well, and will probably add Gecko to it.
I've tested on ATT stock manila and on my BBExtreme theme using latest htc version of manila.

This replaces the current programs tab.

Cabs below with white or black font, depending on your theme.



Thanks for the cab man....much appreciated. Is this uninstallable if needed, or is a hard reset required?

How does one get starting programming a tab for TF3D? I'm really interested in making a visual voicemail tab that pulls from youmail.

To uninstall, disable tf3d, go to Remove Programs and remove the cab

Learn lua programming to start. Here's a couple of links with some tools to use for editing/making files for tf3d:

great app, makes the program tab look much better

one request, is there a way you can make the programs slide past the TF3D tab? I find it a little hard to select the bottom programs since my tab covers it. Also, the D-Pad seems to highlight rows instead of individual programs. And is there anyway we can get D-Pad scroll to work on that tab?

the issue with the last row of icon as somebody else has mentioned exists tho... may be this could be sorted with an additional row of blank icons?

This looks really great, but I'm wondering if it would be possible to either re-order the icons like Ph33zy asked, or to have favorites like the stock Programs tabs but with four rows of four instead of three rows of three. I have so many programs installed that it takes a while to scroll through everything to find the ones I use all the time.
