ListPro custom "Skin List"
(by spmwinkel)
To give you an example of how you can use ListPro, let me demonstrate a list I made myself. If you use software as Wisbar Advance 2, PocketBreeze, Resco Keyboard, you might know there are lots of skins out there, to make your device look even more beautiful. But after downloading a lot of skins, you might lose track of who created which skin, and what software it skins. As you can see above, I have found a solution for this! The (modified) screenshot to the right shows you how I have the list myself, tweaked to only display the software I use. But of course you can have more columns to cover more software. I included some extra columns in the template down below. Also, the template doesn’t contain the entire list of skin. In fact, the template will look something like this (screenshot below) when you put it on your device.In the download, there is one test entry that can easily be deleted):
When you tap Menu, New Item, you get the screen that you can see on the left below. As you can see, you can enter the name of the skin. The name of the authors are automatically saved, so you don’t have to keep re-typing them. You can simply tap the circles for every application to mark them, and tap them again to reset them. In the .tsk (NonExt) box, you can enter a number that tells you how many Today Themes were included in the skin suite. The $ sign allows you to show whether the skin was free or commercial.
When you tap Menu, List Properties, you will get the screen on the right. Here you can Add… a new column if you want to add a skinnable program, or Delete one that you don’t use. When you choose to Modify… a “Yes/No” box, you can change the red dot to a green square, a flag, or something else. You can also change the order that they appear in. Finally, when you disable the checkbox in front of an item, you can disable it from the visible list, but it will not be deleted. This way, you’ll only see the software in the list that you use.
