yo!
dunno what ive done but ive lost that little bar at the top of the start menu - you know, the one with just icons of recently opened programs anyone know how to get it back?
Maybe my eyes but I have never seen the old WM5 top bar on my WM6 TyTnII??
edit..
Actually its not only my eyes its my memory also. I think you have to go back to WinCE for them on a PPC. Unless you have a WM Smartphone then they are at the top!
the small horizontal row of icons right at the top of the start menu when you press the start button? im sure it was there earlier today!
They are the programs that have been set to always show in the start menu. They only appear as a horizontal list of icons when in landscape mode so that they all fit in. In landscape mode they appear in a vertical list with text labels like the rest of the items in the menu.
You can choose which icons appear by going to Start -> Settings -> Menus.
Those only show up in landscape mode. In portrait, the full list with titles is displayed.
ahaaaaa! loool me being an idiot then! lol cheers guys youre right!
My quick menu has disappeared from the today screen and in its place is a battery percentage icon. Since I have a battery indicator next to this i would like to put the quick menu back. Please help.
have you tried going and excuting the quick menu program from your program list? Once there you should be able adjust the options to your liking.
its not into programs. trying a hard reset
you shouldnt need to hard reset just to get quick menu back...have you tried:
a) clicking on the start icon and not the word start
b) re-installing the quick menu cab?
did hard reset putting back phone with sprite backup now. quick menu icon was on when phone first powered up. If it's gone now it means some program is removing it. Right?
if you cant find the quickmenu in the start icon, then you can just try looking for the quickmenu executable. i think it would most likely be in the \windows directory
Is there a reg edit to move the battery icon?
I want to move the battery icon to the left because it currently covers up the icon that shows new notifications in the title bar, making them unusable. Is there a reg edit to do this? Thanks in advance!
Found quick menu on start icon. changed battery to none and added Q to taskbar. But the quick menu icon that was on there before is now gone but I can use this method

Well if you did a restore with sprite backup then most likely, you just undid everything that made it reappear in the first place.

By quickmenu do you mean the quickmenu itself taking the place of the old start menu? If thats what you want you have to tell it to do so, under options, the very first page, select replace systems start menu (and register win key of device if you want the hardware start key mapped too)

I have no idea what you are talking about on this, with my quickmenu, the battery is shown the furthest to the right as possible (where the ok and X are normally shown). Are you saying that this is not how yours appears?

No mine appears next to the 3G icon
uncheck "show on all titlebar" for the battery option and then the battery will move to the far right
quickmenu
I went to quickmenu/options and selrcted replace start menu--------nothing happened. sorry now when i click start it lists everything but won open ie settings so I'm turning off replace start menu
Leon, everything that you are asking really is availible as an option under quickmenu itself (even displaying settings) my best advice for you is just to look under the options...almost all of the options (again in quickmenu) are self explainatory, so you should be able to get all of your questions answered within
quick menu start
All of this started when I lost the quick menu start icon thats all the way up in the right corner next to battery icon. It is 3 lines with a triangle on its bottom right.Now the last icon I have is the battery with an empty space next to it.

The three lines thing can be turned off by going to the windows mobile settings, task manager, and deselecting all of the options under it, and obviously the reverse if you want that part on (this is not quickmenu, this is htc's task manager app). The battery is from quickmenu which you can turn on or off under the quickmenu settings.
Went to Task mgr and quick menu is checked but it isnt back on the top of today screen!!!!

So I just got CM7 running on my SD card and was loading Netflix when I noticed that the icon with 4 boxed that lets u view your apps that is located in the small 3 icon tool bar thing at the bottom of the screen is gone. Is there another way to get to my apps or some way to get back the icon.
You might try hitting menu on the home screenm-->settings-->ADWLauncher-->Reset ADW
Just a shot in the dark here, but I'm guessing that will fix it.
Also in the menu you can go to general behavior-->Swipe up action and swipe down action, which will allow you to set what happens when you swipe up or down on the homescreen. Personally, I don't even use the 3 little icons, I just have swiping down display the app drawer.

On the Home screen, tap and hold on the empty space to bring up "Add to Home screen" window, then tap the "Launcher Actions" then select "Open/close App Drawer". It will bring the icon back on your Home screen, from there, you can drag it back to one of the 3 boxes on the Dock bar.
I kept having to reset it and got tired of that so I deleted the bar and put the icon on the screen itself. It hasn't disappeared yet since doing that.

It does not "disappear", you're removing it. Put it back and select "Lock desktop". You'll have to unlock when you want to change stuff on the desktop.
Disappeared

Hi, i tried this and it worked just fine. Thanks alot !! Clicked Thanks
This bar is almost like the google cards app. Hitting it will bring up interesting info. But, I do not want it. I have looked at all the settings. I must have accidentlly hit a wrong key somewhere back. That vertical bar is really annoying.
I looked some more but could not find additional info so I just did a factory reset. I know I know that this is a radical step but the bar annoyed the heck out of me. In the future I will be more careful as to which box I tick. lol
Update: Factory reset did work but indirectly. After the reset I manually entered one app at a time. The first app was Nova launcher-went thru the settings while watching for that stupid vertical bar to appear and voila it did. It was in the "App widgets"/Card background" that somehow I previously set and that brought out that stupid vertical bar. So, just shut it off and good to go. You can't beat starting fresh with a factory reset even though it took a while to get my apps backup one at a time.
