[Request] Tile instead Shortcut on the Start Screen

November 13, 2012 12:30:44 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

Decor8 has a nice config menu it looks different to Start8 and Fences which are Desktop applications, it really  looks like a "Modern UI application".

So it should have  a tile instead a shortcut. For a unified view your other Windows 8 tools should have tiles for the Start Screen if possible  and shortcuts for the Desktop.

In order to show Decor8 as a tile we got 2 options:

 

-Wait to see if the program will be converted to a metro app and be accepted in the Windows Store (which I think is completely unnecessary)

or

-Use oblytile to create a tile yourself. It is a very usefull tool for those like me who like to customize icons.
