Guest 3shirts Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 (edited) This cab adds an extra button to the SPB Today to acess SPB Menu easier 3xButons.cab WTF!! I just installed this and it destroyed my customised digital clock widget. I uninstalled it and now SPB won't even load! EDIT: Ok, it seems that this CAB overwrites qa_layouts.dat and if you uninstall it just takes that file with it! Fortunately I had a backup from when I was fiddling with customisations last week so MS is running again. I have , however, lost my carefully crafted digital clock widget :excl: Edited April 25, 2009 by 3shirts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ionfist Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 Hello there, I was just wondering if there is a way to remove some of the panels. E.g. I don't want the professional panel, I prefer using the lifestyle one. Additionally, I don't want the gesture changing from professional to lifestyle, coz I am using the samsung task switcher. Thanks in advance Anyone.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont worry, this version of the plugin is for MS v2, not v3, so it wont work completely. Guess we have to wait a little bit longer for complete integration.

Guest LuigiSlowHand Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 (edited) How do you get the digital clock to display in 12hour (am/pm) format? My Omnia is configured (regional settings date/time) to display the system time in this format but SPB, professional layout and lifestyle with pro mod for large digital clock, will only display the digital clock in 24 hour format. Thanks. lol i've got the exact opposite question how do you do to have the professional clock setted to 24hs format? ***EDIT**** Never mind, i did it to see all clocks in AM/PM Format, in regional settings you need to choose "h:mm:s tt" and all your clocks will have a 12hs format Edited April 26, 2009 by LuigiSlowHand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
