Adding new touch flo tabs? - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps

Is there any SDK or documentation anywhere for creating new tabs for TouchFlo?
I also used to have a Map Search tab on a ROM I had on my TyTN II. Is there a way of getting this back?

TouchFlo Question and others

Hi,
I've installed Touch Flo 2D Manila2D_1.00_1819.2926-xplode.CAB on top of Sundreams ROM.
This ROM rocks and it very fast on my BA with apps installed. OCed the BA using XCPUScalar.
However I've got a problem with the adding Programs shortcuts in TouchFlo (launcher tab). After selecting the program, the form closes and no program is added to the shortcut. The + remains a +. Anyone experienced this problem?. Is there a way to add the shortcuts manually in a configuration file?.
Also where can I configure TouchFlo settings?
Also the front screen calendar is too basic for my taste. I used SPB diary. How can I use a more advanced calendar with TouchFlo (shows 5 days or more)?.
Thanks to all ROM contributors. Any insights appreciated.
Customize it using this one:

make sure you installed all the Xplode CABS before the manila to have it working
This is from my own experience I am sure some experts can help more.
Update
Thanks for the reply.
I have installed the following cabs:
HTCAlbum-2.5QVGA.cab
Aku1.4 Sounds.cab
Aku1.4 welcomehead.cab
HTC htcStartMenu.cab
HTC Enchansements.cab
HTC TaskManager 2.1.34837.5
HTCFlashLite.cab
HTC AudioManager.cab
Touch Flo 2D Manila2D_1.00_1819.2926-xplode.CAB
To which cabs are you actually refering to?. Am I missing something?.
Well as regards to the launcher, I have added the applications manually via registry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila2D\Launcher, however the application do not run when clicked on. Icons appear as a 'blank icon' rather than '+'

Any ideas?
As far as the calendar, no one seems to have been able to use a different calendar as of yet. Having said that, there is one alternative that I am using right now (with which I am pretty happy). There is a program in the Dev and Hacking section that is called Manila Control
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=447504&highlight=manila+control
This will allow you to switch back and forth between Manila and Today (just set up an Up-Down gesture with FTouchFlo Config). You can then put any Today plugin that you want (ie SPB Calendar) and just switch to it when you need to see your calendar. Hope this helps you on that end.
Now, as far as the cabs, you should install the following cabs:
HTC_Enchansements.cab
HTC AudioManager_2.0_1819.1228.cab
GoogleMaps_compressed.cab
HTC_Task_Manager_2.1_34837.5.cab
HTC_Album2.0_1818.3032.cab
Touch Flo 2D Manila2D_1.00_1819.2926-xplode.CAB
FSP, DShow, WMP, Youtube, Video Fixes.cab
These are the ones that I have on my device and I have not had any issues with speed or anything like that. Hope this helps!
Thanks for feedback. I have managed to find a workaround via registry. I did'nt add the "uptime" key before. Once added the icons are functional and show up.

Manilla 2D and TF3D

I am currently using WAD2.0 and very happy with it...
Just wondering what is Manilla 2D and what is TF3D - these are apparently "all the rage" and just wondering what I am missing??
can someone explain in basics what each of these are?
are they just skins to appear like the Diamond?
Thanks!
no they are not skins they are the 'new' htc home apps from the diamond (tf3d) and the jade (manilla 2d). You can't run tf3d on your vogue so don't bother, I've been running manilla 2d for quite a while and I really like the ease and flow of the interface. the best was to put it on your vogue is with a new rom that includes it, however you can also install it using the downloads from the thread in the dev/hacking forum.
Try it, you'll probably like it.
thanks ; when you say "home apps" do you mean that manila replaces the Today screen.
can I run Wad and Manilla ?
also, i searched for a .cab for manilla, but cant find it - there numerous skin, manilla-hack threads, etc, but please link me to the cab install thread. Thanks!!!!
if you get a rom with it already included you can install manilla controll and switch back to a second today screen using a softkey.

Add new Tab for Today Applications to TF3D??

Hi there!
First I wanna say, that this site is amazing! I´m at least 2-3 times a day here to look for new stuff
Now I have a please. Does somebody know how I can add a new Tab for today plug-ins like "resco Radio" or something else in the TF3D??
... or can somebody program such a function?
Thx!
Your visitor with a please
I was just wondering the same thing.
It would be nice to have two programs tabs with different things
I'm not aware of any current solutions that operate the way you've described however there are two solutions that are similar enough that they may prove suitable for your needs.
The first one is SecondToday which is an application that maps itself to one of your home screen soft keys and allows you to toggle between TF3D and what looks like the WM Today screen.
The second solution is Manila Control which replaces HTC Cube with another WM Today screen look-a-like (called by the default cube action -- swipe from bottom to top).
I've tried both and have had some success with SecondToday but, unfortunately, no success with Manila Control. As always, YMMV.

Program a tab for TF3D

I never got into TF3D since it completely takes over the home screen. What would be awesome though is if there was a TF3D tab that allowed you to display other tf3d tabs inside it. I see different TF3D packages with different tabs available so I wonder, is it possible to write a tab for TF3D? Perhaps write a dll? I would love to do this (I am a dev, which is why I am posting here by the rules). Any info on the feasibility of this?
So this is not possible at all? bummer..
D-man made a tab (calendar) and some other modifications so maybe you should contact him http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=1088485

Calendar & keyboard & Today screen...

Hello HD2 world
I'm new to HTC world, previously I had an Eten. HD2 is a sexy device, yet I have some issues I would like to fix :
1°) Calendar
Am I missing a point or the HTC calendar isn't able to copy/paste/move appointments in week view or add an appointment by selecting the day in the week view ? I really miss these features.
Any way to enable them ? Or is it possible to install back the original poutlook calendar from ms ?
Also I have the 1.43 ROM, is it possible to install the 1.48 calendar which fixes the week view issue without flashing the ROM (just installing a new cab for the calendar ?)
2°) Keyboard
I really miss the feature of the ms keyboard : slide to right to add a space, slide to left to backspace, slide up to caps and slide down to enter key ... any way to enable this on HTC keyboard or revert to ms keyboard ?
3°) Today screen
I like Sense, but I miss some today plugins ... is it possible to have a Today screen embedded inside a sense tab ? This would allow to keep some today plugins and have the best of both worlds
Thank you for your help,
Nibbler.
Hello Nibbler,
did you already find any solution to your problems?
I am facing pretty much the same problems but could not find anything regarding these issues so far.
I would especially be interested in a solution for the copy & paste functionality inside the calendar.
Best wishes from Germany,
Hoss.
I can't remember what it's called, but there is a today tab for TouchFLO somewhere in the forums (it won't be in the HD2 forums, I don't think - try the blackstone ones, or just search from the root).
It may work with Sense - I don't know.
