Can I add my own icon on the menubar?

I have added an icon on taskbar to show a status, but after I open some apps. it hide some words. I tried to use SHNotificationAdd, but the left softkey of today screen becomes notification. I give up.
Can I add icon on menubar?
thanks!
I tried to find window MS_SOFTKEY_CE_1.0 and create a static on it, then in home screen it will be OK.
But in other application I should add new one.
Is there a way to add once and it shown in every toolbar?
I have seen a DELL ppc with querty keyboard show the key state on the menu bar. How did they do?

Icons in start menu disappear after soft reset...

After doing a soft reset, my icons in the start menu disappear. The apps that are gone are installed on my storage card. Now is there any way to have the icons refresh after a reset instead of having to edit my menu by removing them and then adding them back? Thanks
Are you talking about the drop down start menu?
As it has two parts. Top part is app's you have set in 'Settings' 'Menu'.
The second half is app's you have recently used.
You will lose the lower half on a soft reset but not the top.
On a HARD reset you will lose them both.
I lose the graphic for the icon on the top in my settings menu. The .exe icon (white square w/blue top) is there and it works but the app specific icon is not there. For instance, instead of the "Yahoo go!" icon or "Live Search" icon, there is just a generic white box with the blue bar at the top. It's just an appearance thing, but it is annoying. I love tinkering with this thing so I want to get it figured out.
thanks
After you do a soft reset go to Settings - Personal - Menu and click any of the programs that you have previously selcted on off and on. The icons will now appear in your Start menu. Don't know why it works, but it does!

Move TaskManger Icon

Hi,
Anyone found a way to move the new windows taskmanger over a few icons towards the middle? It's always hidden under the X and thus useless to change programs. In fact it might be useful to order/move all the icons in the top task bar??
I've always used Magic Button but it doesn't seem to work that well with WM6.1, Ariel or WiseBar might be an option? Otherwise thinking of remapping one of the very scarce buttons??
Thanks.
Somehow I managed to remove the icon completely. Anyone who knows how to get it back?
settings -> taskmanager , choose button tab.
Hi,
Yep, that was how I setup TaskManager.
x Enable "X" button to end running programs
x End programs by tapping "X"
o End programs by tapping and holding "X"
x Enable Quick Menu on Today screen
x = checked
... however the TaskManager quick menu in under the "X" button. i.e. you have to close every program to get to the manager to change to the program you want ... but now it's closed??
I could use tap & hold to end, then minimise every program to change, but I was thinking like magic button - if I could just move the |||> icon over one space to the left I could tap TaskManger and then go to the program I want. Maybe I'm just being really really dumb?
Missing TaskManger dis this fix the problem?

How do you launch the "Programs" application folder using a soft key?

I've recently applied the reg edit to be able to view 5 items per row on my programs folder which now makes that page quite usable as a launcher. Now I'd like to assign my left soft key to open up the programs folder.
I'm using Soft Key v1.3. When selecting applications for the key, what is the name of the Programs Application that, when pressed, will open up the programs folder (ie, same as Start/Programs)? I've tried many that appear to be it but none work.
I've searched and searched on xda and actually found a few results but none that worked. I've tried creating shortcuts, even found a 'folderview.exe' file to put into the windows folder but, when pressed it opens up the default programs folder of only 3 icons per row. It seems like this would be an easy thing to do but I'm stumped.
If this made any sense of what I'm trying to accomplish, can anyone help please?
Any news on this?
I've been searching for hours about this subject and didn't find anything.
I'm stuck with this also, folderview.exe does open the programs menu folder but doesn't render the 4 icons per row, instead it presents only the standard 3 icons/row.
Anyone knows how to overcome this issue?
Thanks
BUMP!
Does anyone have a solution to displaying the 4 icon layout in folderview?
Or is there an alternative way to display folders in the program launcher?
Cheers!
@ question 1:
Start Menu\Programs on Soft Key
I actually found an application that is even more flexible:
WM5NewMenu by Saman.cz
It does NOT mirror the above mentioned folder,
but even better: you can configure it just as you like.
E.g.: I created a few submenues (Main, System, Connectivity, Navigation, Utilities, Games) and added the most important prog links to each submenu.
Give it a try and spend some time.
Hey, it's freeware.
@ question 2:
4 Icons in a row
best use Schap's Advanced Config (I used 3.0 as 3.2 did not work).
Then under the 1. menu item "user interface"
select "horizontal icon spacing" and change value to "112"
select "vertical icon spacing" and change value to "115"
select "icon title font size" and change to "6"
... perform a soft reset and ... you're done
Thanks M_O_N_A_C_O, but that's not what we are after.
We know how to set the folder with 4 columns and we don't want a new menu.
What we would like to have is some way to open the "programs" or "settings" from a button or softkey (like WMguy post) and still be able to get it with the 4 columns display instead of only 3, which is what happens if you do it with folderview.exe

CM7 app icon is gone

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
