so yea... so far all the home screens i have seen have an image for the different pages/tabs & of course i am wanting to just have text as way to go to a different page. unless, i can make what some use as a "screen saver" (pushing the up button on the D-pad) for a 2nd page... i need more room for my tasks and want the tab or what ever to be none intrusive on the main home screen....

crap... forgot to mention but clever folks figured it, i am speaking of tabs with Facade :}

that is the route I went...I got my facade calender filling the entire second page and have hidden the "tab" bar on the third.

but the tab is a hidden image ?

it's hidden by the fact that I never scroll down to the third page!

haha..maybe we are talking about different things!

I didn't want the tab bar (I have the 2-tab bar) cluttering my hs..as well as my calender was feeling a bit intrusive. So I moved the calender to a full screen second page and stashed the tab-bar on the third. Although I don't use the bar often (switching from calender to tasks, etc) so I don't mind it being so far away. Der gave me some steps on how to remove it completely but I never got around to doing it!

Say, you want tabs without images, just the texts "Schedule" & "Tasks"? You can disable tab images within Facade Settings. If you then decrease the tab bar height, you'll be done.

thanks.

rudeboy · 06-06-2008, 09:05 AM
