Len updated his CopperDeckII v.2.8 skin for the all the new tools in the ZLauncher 3.0 beta 2, including the brand new "All buttons list" tool. You can download it from PalmGear (http://www.palmgear.com/software/showsoftware.cfm?sid=F0594128-2DF1-4661-B8C789EF77379962&prodID=46473). Another excellent piece of work!

Thanks for the news t_b, I don't have version 3 (nor the beta) yet, but I'm collecting updated Themes.
Question: Will previous themes, for 2.8, not work at all with 3, or only in the Tabs at top and compact mode?

The way that I understand the theme design after playing with it a bit this weekend, all the stuff that worked before will still work in 3.0. However, where new icons and side tab pieces should be in the theme resouce file there will just be blank spaces. So, in theory old themes should work fine in 3.0 as long as you don't use the new features. If you do use the new features, it won't crash, but may look a bit funky in the areas that would be occupied by the new tools/tabs. For example, when I tried to put the non-existant file manager tool from CDII 2.7 on the tool bar, it looked like a space in the tool line but the file manager came up when I tapped that blank space. Fortunately, Len, Honolulu, LaStigmata, and some others are pretty much keeping up with the ZL 3.0 beta additions to the interface.

CopperDeckII Rocks! It almost can keep up with ZZtechs :D

The nice thing about the Top/Bottom Bar Setup, even if the theme doesn't support the latest rev of ZLauncher you can still drag & drop the blank (which a pop-up tells you what your dragging) onto the appropriate space on the tool bar. Then next time up update your theme, volia your set, no re-config necessary:)
