TodayPlus Boards v2

Calendar skin has been updated.  I have added Battery+ by Lordtwisted. All new features of version 10 work. I have also included icons to get to some of your system properties(About,Remove Programs,Today setup, etc.).

Installation instructions:
Place skin in skin file
Replace config file with this one.
Place CPLIcons.dll in the \Windows folder.
Place Colors-3D in images folder.
Place Washington Post in weather icons folder.
Place ba+icons and Sytem icons folders in the TodayPlus folder. (You can move if you wish but make sure you change the path in the config file)
You might need to edit the SD and CF card icons in Battery+ to have them see your cards properly. See  this thread (http://www.dark-mojo.com/TodayPlus/viewtopic.php?t=640) to find out how.
Make sure you download the CalendarPlusicons.zip in the next post.
Post questions.

This is the system Icons, Battrey+ icons and Cplicons.dll. Sorry I ahd to split the zip due to it being to large. Just download this also and follow the above instructions.

3 early questions:

1. Is each launcher category limited to 10 items (no right/left arrow)?
2. What's the icon between the module expansion icon and the refresh icon?
3. Is there an easy was to arrange the launcher to always be just below the top module?

Thanks.

1. It is possible to add in the left/right arrows to have 2 or more pages. However, srs changed the coding for the launcher. I don't usually have more then 40 icons to put up so didn't make any changes to what was done. I will look at it and see if I can get the 2nd page back up.
2. That is a version 10 icon. If you have the down arrow visible each section will take up a portion of the screen. If you have the up arrow visible then rss, weather and clocks will rotate in 1 region.
3. Yes. Cut and Paste the launcher section(region16) which is at the very end of the skin and put it in before the weather section. This should put it below region0(calendar section)

Hi, I adore its skin and changed to the version plus today, but the agenda this not showing task and others itens. It appears a black balloon and qdo I go to see the calendar, also appears in black. Use Pocket informant and outlook express, debtor for the attention and congratulations

Hello, the person who wrote  this post (http://www.dark-mojo.com/TodayPlus/viewtopic.php?t=672) had the same problem. you might be able to make the same changes. You could also try changing your today theme(although I am not sure this will work). Hope this helps.

I don't need the arrows either. Just curious.

I really like the up/down arrow. I prefer 1 module at a time.

Can't find the launcher section  :?  It should be in the calendarplus.txt, right? I don't see any region 16 or reference to launcher.

Thanks for another great "starter" skin for me.  :twisted:  :wink: I'm sure I'll be bugging you as I modify it.

I should have put in something to identify it. Sorry about that. The start will look like this:
region,16,0,-1
defregion,16,0,0,240,37,0
offset,offset_-1,offset_-1
image,0,0,dotted_line.png,tr
offsetadd,0,2

initvar,var16,1

changefont,tahoma,11,

image,0,0,tabs.png,t

   if,var,var16,,=,1
      image,13,0,selected_tab.png,t
      image,66,0,unselected_tab.png,t
      image,119,0,unselected_tab.png,t
      image,172,0,unselected_tab.png,t
It is litterally the last part of the skin just under the POOM section. Also I moved it like you suggeted to just below the zero region and it causes some problems with the weather, RSS and clock section. This only happens when you have the up arrow visible. If you put below this section all is ok. I will have to look and see what changes are needed.

First, I just want to say how thankful and impressed I am with everyone's work on all the skin upgrades (as well as on the newly revised version of TP) as I am now able to replace all my various Today page utilities with just one; even as a beta, it blows away all the combinations of individual products.

Now I have one question, and I want to make especially sure that no one takes this as a critique (because its not): what are you guys using as a text editor? Everytime I download a config.txt (or calendarplus.txt) for example, tabs and spaces are intermixed within the if/else/endif structures, etc. shoving the line contents all over the screen. I've already built the beginnings of a "pretty-printer" script for my own editor just so I can make some sense of all the changes everyone is creating, but if there is some common editor that most people are using (please don't let it be PW), I'm willing to convert it so that I'm on the same track are the rest of you.

Thank you very much Blazingwolf, perfectly worked!!!! I'm loved this skin, again congratulations for the excellent work!

I just noticed that my past due tasks are not showing. Anyone else have that issue?

-Bob-

I just played a bit with this skin and like it a lot. Good work!

Just one question: how do I enable the details for the CF-Card? If I click on the bar the "File Store" details are shown?!

Urbanus,
you may have a look at the original Battery+ Thread (http://dark-mojo.com/TodayPlus/viewtopic.php?t=640).
Lordtwisted posted there a file called ba+10.zip which should inlcude what you are looking for (he added Page 400 to Region 9)

Hope this helps.

I use Notepad. Basic but works.

In tasks? Or Agenda? Mine show up in the task catagory but I believe they are filtered out of agenda.

Quote from: UrbanusJust one question: how do I enable the details for the CF-Card? If I click on the bar the "File Store" details are shown?!

Check to make sure that the pathway to your CF card is correct in the config file and the skin. You might also look in the batteryPlus posts in the New Skins/Graphics section.

Blazingwolf,

1. How do I get PI to be the default program when I click on an item? I noticed the line "options,poom,pi" in your old version, but just adding it didn't work.

2. I changed line positions and now the checking of a completed task takes 30+ seconds to show. Here's the line I changed:

options,taskcomplete,0,12,12,%iconstart,222%%sensitivityicon,-10,1,private sensitivity.png,normal sensitivity,t%%recurrenceicon,-10,1,recurrence.png,t%%remindericon,-10,1,reminder.png,t%%iconstart,-3%%priorityicon,-10,1,low priority.png,normal priority.png,high priority.png,t%%changefont,tahoma,11,s%%checkbox,5,0,12,12,checkbox.png,checkedbox.png,t%%tab,18%%subject%%changefont,tahoma,12,%

What else needs to be changed?

Thanks.

Blazingwolf:

Thanks for your time and effort spent on upgrading the calendar skin.

I am very pleased with the way you have it setup and think my days of hunting for plugins are over. :P

looks great but how do I just change my battery icons ?  thanks

Blazingwolf,

Great job, i use you'r skin know.It has every thing since you added Battery+ by lordtwisted, and i love your calendar up at the top like that.

Thanks again for you'r hard work.

Quote from: rebecker1. Is each launcher category limited to 10 items (no right/left arrow)?

In case you want it, here is the slider launcher that supports two pages of icons per tab (for a total of 80 icons).

Hi,

in the wonderfull skin CalendarPlus are calls for
\windows\powerg.exe
\windows\Reset.exe
\windows\Suspend.exe

Are these file standard? I have a german version of WM2003 and cannot find the files on my PPC (Acer n10).  Any hints where the files can be found?

Quote from: Elmer FuddAre these file standard?

powerg.exe is the Power applet for iPAQs.  You will have an equivalent, or a control panel applet.  ya1950 provides links to Brighthand and Microsoft on this subject here (http://dark-mojo.com/TodayPlus/viewtopic.php?p=2643#2643).

Reset and Suspend are part of the PHM PowerToys set, and have also been provided in this post (http://dark-mojo.com/TodayPlus/viewtopic.php?p=1005#1005).

Quote from: homerjpbodylooks great but how do I just change my battery icons ?  thanks

Do you want to use different icons then what are given in the Images folder? If yes the easiest way would be to find new icons and put them in the images folder with the names that are currently used by Battery+. If not, would you please explain a little more so I understand exactly what you would like to do.

Doh! My bad I forgot to include the Reset and Suspend Icons in the download. It is attached here. Just place them in the \Windows folder.

I'm not sure. I will keep looking into it but if you need a faster answer you might wish to post in the help catagory.

Blazingwolf,

I found the answer. Here's where I changed the code:

//=================================================
// REGION 13
// FILTERS
// Vars Used: 8,9
//=================================================
region,13,0,-1
if,var,var15,,<,60
button,10,0,10,%var15%,11,24,-highlight
else
text,120,0,AGENDA,cs
button,10,16,10,%var15%,11,24,-highlight
endif
storevar,var9=0
storevar,var8=0
options,calendarfilter,0
options,taskfilter,0

Thanks.

-Bob-

Cool. Glad you found it.

BlazingWolf

Very nice skin with (almost) everything I need. I allready translated the skin to Dutch.

Some suggestion for an extended version:

- In the upper left corner the today-wheather icon with temperature, humidity and winddir and speed. Clickable which provide today weather info for your other cities. (I use the small weather icons)

(I have allready some code ready, the info on day and date can be some what smaller and to the left)

- Wind information in the today weather section (dir and speed)

(Allready available on my skin)

- A button which provide the name of an (time)area and the time that belongs to that area. Also clikcable which provides other areas.

(I have allready also some code ready, perhaps instead of the user info)

If you are interested, let me know.

Can anyone let me know how to change the default display section for Calendarplus? It always start up with the weather and battery/memory storage sections. I hope to start up with the agenda and the battery panel instead.

I have some problem with the weather section where sometime it refuse to load and hang up the todayplus screen. I need to clear up the buffer files (city1.txt ... ) so that the skin will load properly. Not sure anyone facing the same problem.

You need to look in the skin for these lines:

initregion,0,0
initregion,1,0
initregion,4,999
initregion,10,999
initregion,8,0
initregion,11,999
initregion,19,999
initregion,16,999

You will need to change the bold areas. For the weather not to start change 0 to 999. To start the agenda change 999 to 0. This should get what you want.

As for your weather problem I have never experienced the problem. Try to post a screen sht of the problem if you can.

You can send the code my and I will look in to it. No guarantees though.

This is one variation. The purple line is supposed to show the gradient battery status. I am still working on it (thnks to Rgb08, JS)!

Thanks, Blazingwolf.

OK, I attached the screen here. The weather section load the city name "Melaka", after that it just hang there

I have to say excellent work first. Excellent. But I ahve a small problem I seem to sometimes get a circle with a line though it instead of the weather icons. It will do it when I am not connected to the net. is it loosing the cached data some where? or is it deleteing it? am I doning something wrong....

I get that too

:(  With me also this exchange of icones of the time happens and is circulates it white with the risk in the way, but so when I'm not connected in net. Another thing I'd not obtain to make to appear in the agenda the anniversaries, tks


Tina

Blazingwolf,

Is there an easy code change to have the module selection buttons open as the default setting?

Thanks again,

-Bob-

Quote from: rebeckerIs there an easy code change to have the module selection buttons open as the default setting?

I think it should work if you change the line:

initregion,14,0
to:
initregion,14,100

:D The version 0.10.1 everything this functioning perfectly, icons of the time, the freezing of today... everything ok! I only continue not obtaining to make to appear icons and notes of anniversaries and events.... :shock:

Tina

Blazingwolf, what is the  WisBar Advance skin you are using in the pictures?  The candy-3d top and bottom bars with "iTask" on the title?

Dear Blazingwolf Sir

Your skin was very beautiful. I had used it now. But I still suffer some problem when I using your skin.

1. Agenda will overlap with weather or any other field above it. I didn't do any change on the agenda part of calender file.

2. Agenda change to calendar view will show nothing.

Very thanks for your kindly help.

Please help me. My today screen is freezing all the time, mostly when i try to change something in the config file (eg. shortcuts).

Quote from: dhpssThis is one variation. The purple line is supposed to show the gradient battery status. I am still working on it (thnks to Rgb08, JS)!

How you have changed color of the days off? And whether it is possible to change color of the current date?

Quote from: demstavPlease help me. My today screen is freezing all the time, mostly when i try to change something in the config file (eg. shortcuts).

Upgrading to v0.10.1 should solve these problems.

I think I know why it hang at the weather section. It is due to expire issue of weather info after the default setting of 1 hour.  This is solve by changing the expire hour to a large number, as suggest in the following discussion :
http://dark-mojo.com/TodayPlus/viewtopic.php?p=3302#3302

Blazingwolf,

As you can see, I've messed around with your latest skin again. I'm trying to figure out how to remove the word 'AGENDA' and start the calendar at the top of the module. Can you give me an idea how I might do it?

Thanks.

-Bob-

Hi,

I just installed 0.10.0 again and tried the Calendar skin which I like very much! Thanks for designing it, Blazingowlf!

Unfortunately the skin doesn't work as expected, I only did a few changes to the config.txt and the calendardplus.txt (see attached files) but the launcher section looks a little bit strange (see attachments)?!

Does someone have an idea what is going wrong here?

Hi, The calendar of the agenda instead of showing to 2 months this showing 1 and as without the name of the equal month and to the first one in the days, where dumb this?

:shock: Tks

Tina

I have another malfunctioning: the weather icons don't update and after clicking on the agenda I get the picture below (nothing is shown and a scrollbar appears).

Furthermore the buttons for showing the different components don't work as expected. If I press one it changes to red and back to blue immediately?!

I am confused...

Quote from: rebeckerAs you can see, I've messed around with your latest skin again. I'm trying to figure out how to remove the word 'AGENDA' and start the calendar at the top of the module. Can you give me an idea how I might do it?

Look for this section of the POOM:
//==============================================
         // REGION 13
         //FILTERS
         //Vars Used: 8,9
//==============================================
         region,13,0,-1
         if,var,var15,,<,60
         button,33,0,10,%var15%,11,24,-highlight
         else
         text,120,0,AGENDA,cs
         button,33,16,10,%var15%,11,24,-highlight
         endif
The bolded section is where it says Agenda. You can comment out this line or remove it. As for putting the Agenda at the top just cut and paste the section you want displayed first to the beginning of the skin under region 0. Does this make sense?

Quote from: UrbanusUnfortunately the skin doesn't work as expected, I only did a few changes to the config.txt and the calendardplus.txt (see attached files) but the launcher section looks a little bit strange (see attachments)?!

The skin is clipping the section for some reason on your PPC. I tried you skin and config on my Ipaq and it works fine. Try this to see if it works. Go to the launcher section of the skin and add 1 or 2 to the following lines(the launcher section is the very last part of the skin).
region,16,0,-1
defregion,16,0,0,240,37,0
offset,offset_-1,offset_-1
image,0,0,dotted_line.png,tr
offsetadd,0,3

And this line which is the second to the last of the skin:
offsetadd,0,19
Let me know if this helps you.

Quote from: acschirmerHi, The calendar of the agenda instead of showing to 2 months this showing 1 and as without the name of the equal month and to the first one in the days, where dumb this?

Without you posting your skin I am guessing that something got changed in the calendar section. Make sure that your second calendar section looks like this:
         calendar,1,1,0,24,14,13,box.png,tr
color,replacement,-1_6_-1,0_0_0


                                              color,font,-1_4_-1
         changefont,tahoma,12,b
         text,49,0,[caldate],1,c,"MMMM yyyy"
         changefont,tahoma,12,
         button,0,24,98,78,-1,5,1-highlight,11
         button,0,24,98,78,12,3,
         button,0,24,98,78,-1,23,0
         button,0,24,98,78,-1,23,1
         button,0,24,98,78,-1,23,2
         button,0,24,98,78,-1,23,3
         offsetadd,-110,0

I think that will solve your problem.

Have you done a soft reset? Also do you live in europe? Other people have had a somewhat similar problem (weather icon problem) as you. Check this thread to see if it helps:
http://dark-mojo.com/TodayPlus/viewtopic.php?p=3302#3302
If these answers fix some of your problems we will try to correct the agenda problem next. Let me know.

Blazingwolf,

Skin  :oops: forgives forgot to place together mine, but it seems to be certain as what you it ordered, I'm annexing now. Tks Tina

Blazingwolf,

Sorry, I didn't make myself clear. I want to position the first line of the agenda data starting at the top of the module. I've attached cut and paste view below.

Thanks.

Which button are you pressing that reacts in this way?

Blazingwolf,

I figured it out. Changing the position limits my views to Agenda and Tasks, but that's all I use anyway.

Thanks.

Hi Blazingwolf,
first of all I have to say "Thanks!" for your great work at the Calendar Skin - I just love it!

I am using a slightly modified version of it and I have a question/problem you are might be able to answer - hopefully :D
If you have a look at the picture you can see the little owner information image right to the update time. What I am trying to do is as follows: if I am pressing the owner button (image) the calendar should disappear and the owner information should show up.
I was trying to setup a new region (page; size: 95 x 70, offset: 145,0) for the calendar/owner info, but it did not work as expected ...

Could you please help/guide me in getting this to work? Would be cool ...  :D

Thanks and have a great weekend.

Hi CoolWolf,

How you it changed the colors of the days of the week in the calendar? It wanted to place the Sunday in red!
:P
Tks,

Tina

@acschirmer
That is a simple "trick" - I guess I have read this in a post in the original thread on brighthand ...

Correction:
This idea/trick is from Lordtwisted and has been posted in this thread (http://www.dark-mojo.com/TodayPlus/viewtopic.php?t=140) in the TD+ Forum.

1.) In config.txt delete e.g the "S" for Sunday - but DO NOT delete any comma(!)
2.) In your skin file you have to look for the place where the "calendarheader" is defined. After this you place e.g. following lines:
               // Red Sunday
   color,font,192_0_0
   text,227,9,S,l
=> you may have to adjust the offset (here: 227) for the "S" as I have made the calendar a little wider than the original one. You have to play a little bit around with this value to fit it to your needs.

Have a great day  :D

Hey Coolwolf, I was just admiring (borrowing) your system info icons, so it's only appropriate that I share.  Although what I owe to everyone else (arbitrajeu, Blazingwolf, rbg, dhpss, lightman, Morpheus, and srs and many others) for what I have borrowed, can't possibly be repaid.  Thank you all!  Anyhow, from Blazingwolf's calendar, I added the following:

//   Owner Info   
   changefont,tahoma,12,b
   text,2,30,%owner name%,l
   if,region,17,=,0
      button,2,25,15,15,17,4,999,-1

Set region 17 to 0 in your initregion and change the button offset's to match your requirements and you should be set...

Set region 17 to 0 in your initregion and change the button offset's to match your requirements and you should be set...

Tks CoolWolf, It functioned!

Here offset is 156, udo skin calendarplus. What it would be cool also is the day of the week that is in boldface to be of a different color... you has a "trick" for this? :shock:

:lol:  Have great day too

Tina

@blewand
Thanks for your response! I will give it try this weekend - but unfortunately I am busy today, so this may take a while. But thx so far  :D

@acschirmer
As far as I know this is not possible at the moment. But you may have a look here (http://dark-mojo.com/TodayPlus/viewtopic.php?t=429) that srs thinks about implementing this in a future version.

Quote@acschirmer
That is a simple "trick" - I guess I have read this in a post in the original thread on brighthand ...

1.) In config.txt delete e.g the "S" for Sunday - but DO NOT delete any comma(!)
2.) In your skin file you have to look for the place where the "calendarheader" is defined. After this you place e.g. following lines:
// Red Sunday
color,font,192_0_0
text,227,9,S,l
=> you may have to adjust the offset (here: 227) for the "S" as I have made the calendar a little wider than the original one. You have to play a little bit around with this value to fit it to your needs.

CoolWolf,

well you acctualy read that from me, here http://www.dark-mojo.com/TodayPlus/viewtopic.php?t=140

Lordtwisted :lol:

Lordtwisted,
I have followed the huge thread on brighthand and also this here from the very begining, and because I haven't used the search function I mixed this here up  :?

I have corrected my mistake on my original post (see above).

Thanks for bringing this to my attention and have a great weekend  :D

CoolWolf,

Not a proplem at all thanks. I think you should post you'r skin, it is verry nice i like the setup alot.

I will post this skin here when I am done with it - but first I have to figure out how to solve my initial "problem" with the separate region for the calendar/owner info ...  :wink:

CoolWolf,

 what is exactly that you want, when you tap the info icon you want the info replace the calendar and replace the info icon with the calendar icon, and vise a versa?

Lordtwisted

Lordtwisted,
yep - that is exactly what I was thinking of ... :wink:
You hit the nail on the head, man!

Hasta luego!

Hi All:

It is awsome. I am new to TodayPlus and find it cool. Great work everyone.

I have changed config.txt & calendarplus.txt and works great. If I do soft-reset, I get always weather & sysInfo. But I would like to have calendar, apps tab and of course the Today screen with the calendar. How can I do this.

Please help,
Thanks,
Chins

Hi carumuga,
welcome on board  :D

The option you should look for is located in the calendarplus.txt file and is called "initregion".
The exact syntax can be found in the Reference Guide (http://dark-mojo.com/TodayPlus/viewtopic.php?t=3):

E.g. if you want the lauchner to be active at startup, you should replace
initregion,16,999
with
initregion,16,0

Hope this was helpful ...  if not, please let us know.
Good luck and have a nice day!

@Lordtwisted
Let me grab my files and you can find them later today in your PM inbox.
Thanks a lot for having a look at this issue  :D

Carpe Diem!

Hi CoolWolf,

Thanks for your quick reply. It certainly helped what I want. All I am using is TodayPlus and rest I de-activated them. This is the best.

Here is my screen capture tried today (very first time learning) since 3:00AM EST and I couldnt get out until I setup everything. It really got me. I had read the reviews and now I know how flexible it is...

Again, it is really awsome and I love it. Keep up the good work.

Thanks,
Chins

How can I have the Slider (on the Today Screen) expanded by default?

Thanks,
Chins

Hi carumuga.
you may have a look on page 2 of this thread here where arbitrajeu gave already an answer to your question (if I got your question right):
Change
initregion,14,0
to
initregion,14,100

Have a nice day!

Coolwolf, i would like to know how can i do to show the weather icon close to the date info, and i would like to know too, how can i do to show contacts or inbox icon (which lines i have to write and where) where you have located contacts icon.
Another question is, when i show on the screen 4 categories, the word AGENDA and setup icons for changing between the diferent agenda categories or updating this info don't appear. Is there any solution?

And my last question is that i don't need CF info, so i would like to delete it from my screen. Which are the lines i have to delete?

Thank you very much.

Best Regards.

First of all, i would like to thank you very much to CoolWolf for helping me to adjust some parameters for my customized calendarplus skin.

I only have one final "problem". When the agenda updates, it takes some system info region, but a few seconds later, everything is ok again. Which line/s i have to change for this not happens?

Thank you.

Best Regards

Quote from: Blazingwolf

Quote from: UrbanusUnfortunately the skin doesn't work as expected, I only did a few changes to the config.txt and the calendardplus.txt (see attached files) but the launcher section looks a little bit strange (see attachments)?!

The skin is clipping the section for some reason on your PPC. I tried you skin and config on my Ipaq and it works fine. Try this to see if it works. Go to the launcher section of the skin and add 1 or 2 to the following lines(the launcher section is the very last part of the skin).
region,16,0,-1
defregion,16,0,0,240,37,0
offset,offset_-1,offset_-1
image,0,0,dotted_line.png,tr
offsetadd,0,3

And this line which is the second to the last of the skin:
offsetadd,0,19
Let me know if this helps you.

Well, this didn't work, but reinstalling TodayPlus solved the problem (switch of TodayPlus in the settings of the "Today" screen, soft reset, deinstall, soft reset, reinstall).

Quote from: Blazingwolf

Quote from: UrbanusI have another malfunctioning: the weather icons don't update and after clicking on the agenda I get the picture below (nothing is shown and a scrollbar appears).

Furthermore the buttons for showing the different components don't work as expected. If I press one it changes to red and back to blue immediately?!

I am confused...

Have you done a soft reset? Also do you live in europe? Other people have had a somewhat similar problem (weather icon problem) as you. Check this thread to see if it helps:
http://dark-mojo.com/TodayPlus/viewtopic.php?p=3302#3302
If these answers fix some of your problems we will try to correct the agenda problem next. Let me know.

Yes, I live in Europe and changing the value from 60 to 1440 partly fixed the problem: the first city I use is Stuttgart (Germany) and there still no icons are shown. For the other cities I set up it works?!
The region code looks like this:

calcvar,var20,weatherupdatetimediff

if,var,var20,,<,1440
color,replacement,-1_4_-1,0_0_0
[...]
else
calcvar,var20,firstvalidforecastday

if,var,var20,,<,6

Any ideas?

Great skin! Would the launcher with arrows allowing for additional icon work in your skin?

Quote from: UrbanusYes, I live in Europe and changing the value from 60 to 1440 partly fixed he problem: the first city I use is Stuttgart (Germany) and there still no icons are shown. For the other cities I set up it works?!

Looking at your code, and the fact that the other cities work, I'd say it's a problem with the way you have configured Stuttgart.

Have you checked the contents of city1.txt in your Buffer directory?  I wouldn't be surprised if it's missing or empty.  If it's oka, try deleting it and city1.txt.time and refreshing, to see if that clears anything up.

Have you checked the code in your config.txt file against MSNBC.com to be sure they support Stuttgart?  They don't support all the same cities as weather.com.  Worth a look.

Doh, stupid me! I found the error (very simple) after reading the post of arbitrajeu who recommended to check the MSNBC site.
Instead of
city,1,60,GMXX0128,Stuttgart,c
I entered
city,1,60,GMXX00128,Stuttgart,c
which for sure doesn't work. After correcting the typo all is fine, thanks for your help arbitrajeu and Blaingwolf![/b]

I have 2 questions:

1. How can I make the current date in a different color on Today's Calendar. Curretly, it is displyed BOLD in black but would like to have a different color so that it stands out. I figured out the heading color change for Saturday & Sunday. But would like to do the same for the current date.

2. Is there a way to refresh the current date when we trun on the PPC. For Ex: If I turn off tonight and trun on tomorrow morning, I will see the current date as today's date. Since it doesnt refresh for every trun on PPC, I have to manually refresh the date everyday. Or, am I doing something wrong?

Please help.
Thanks,
Chins

1. You can not currently do want you want. Hopefully, srs will put it in soon.

2. The date should automatically corect itself. It reads the date from your PPC and should change when the date on your PPC does. It works on mine so I'm not sure sure why it would not work on yours.

Quote from: Blazingwolf2. The date should automatically corect itself. It reads the date from your PPC and should change when the date on your PPC does. It works on mine so I'm not sure sure why it would not work on yours.

A few minutes ago I turned on my PPC for the first time since yesterday evening and I noticed the same behavior as carumuga:
it was still showing yesterdays date as "today".
I guess it is related to Region 0 not being auto-updated (-1):
//=================================================
// REGION 0 - PAGE 0
// Date section
//  Dimensions: 240 x 20
//===============================================
region,0,0,-1

After pressing the refresh button, the date changed to todays date (as expected).
Please correct me if I am wrong here, Blazingwolf.

Seize the day  :wink:

Yes, you could change that and it should work. I am curious as to why it works on mine but not yours. Change the -1 to what ever interval you would like remembering that it is in seconds(ie 10 equals 10 seconds).

Thanks for your answer, Blazingwolf!
In my modified calendar skin I am already using an update interval of 10 (seconds) as I have also the battery status in region 0.
I noticed this problem only when I am using your original calendar skin - but please don't ask me why I am getting this and you not ... I just don't know  :wink:

I've downloaded the calendar 0.1.0 to upgrade my previous version 0.9.8. But on my desktop don't appear any button and so I cannot detect agenda, weather and the other options of this skin.

From your description I would say that the images folder is not in place. make sure that you put the Colors-3D folder into Images in the root TodayPlus folder. If you have done this please post a screen shot and zip your skin and config and I will look at.

Yes you were right. I've modified the pathway to recognize the 3-D folder. Actually the icons appear but I've a second problem: no weather icons but only circles with a bar in the middle. Do you have any idea about this? I'm not able to attach a screen shot of it... (how to do it?)
Thanks again

Can someone help?  I use the CalendarPlus skin.  My HP568 report EST as 0:58 after fully charged.  I don't know what is the problem.  Is Esttime a valid command?

Thanks,

I have two questions:-

1.   The Templerature is only shown in "oC" instead of raising of "o".  How can I set it?  I have tried to edit the skin file by wordpad, but always warned "format not accpted in text form.    Pls advise.

2.    I have found that the Agenda section are not updated when synchorized with desktop.   HOw can I set it?


Ths.

Oh sorry,  I forgot to attached the config and skin file on my post.  Here they are.

1. If I understand correctly you would like the temp in F. To do this change this line:

city,1,60,CHXX0049,Hong Kong,c

to this

city,1,60,CHXX0049,Hong Kong,f

If I don't understand could you please explain further.


2. I'm not sure why it wouldn't do this. I never even thought about it but your right. This might be a question to post in the help forum because I don't have an answer for you.
Edit: Ok I went back and looked at this again and it is working. Sometimes it seems to take longer then the 60 seconds it is set for. I'm not sure why it would do this but it does. Take a look at yours again and see if it is the same for you.

Ya but it might take me alittle while. I have been busier then expected this past couple of weeks.

When I intalled the updated Today Plus vision 0.10.2 released on 2.12.2003, the weather icon cannot display :oops:
Any suggestion?
Thanks!

Also, I'm using CalendarPlus and I download it on Nov....

i tried to change my skin, but i coldn´t. something got not right!

Place skin in skin file- witch skin?? where i can get it, this was the only thing i didn't make!!!!
Replace config file with this one. - ok, i did it!
Place CPLIcons.dll in the \Windows folder. - ok i did it1
Place Colors-3D in images folder. - ok i did it!
Place Washington Post in weather icons folder. - ok i did it, but can i use my weather icons??
Place ba+icons and Sytem icons folders in the TodayPlus folder. (You can move if you wish but make sure you change the path in the config file) i think i did it, but i did't get. it is just to copy the both folders to the TodayPlus folder? or the files inside??
You might need to edit the SD and CF card icons in Battery+ to have them see your cards properly. See this thread to find out how.
Make sure you download the CalendarPlusicons.zip in the next post.
Post questions. i did't get it, but is not necessery to work.

after making the changes, of course, my today was with nothing!!!
just the background image!

If anyone can help me, i would apreciate it!

Thanks

Marcelof,
The skin file is the one named calendarplus.txt. This is the one you should add to your skin folder.
Without it you won't see anything.
Hope to have helped you,
Roberto

Did you make a change to the skin? Does the options line in the skin point to the correct icons. Some are .bmp while others are .png. Check this line:
options,weathericondir,Weather Icons\Washington Post,png

Match the bolded area to your type of icons. If this does not help please send me your config and skin and I will look at it. Hope this helps.

Hi, i was failling at the Skin. After that, works perfectly.
But know i have one more question....
every thing is appearing, but when i enter in a specific day, like Friday, the detailed prevision of the day and the night are one over the other!!! :shock:
could you understand me?? have i made my self clear??

well, there is any way that i can put de prevision of the day in one line, and the prevision of the night at another? ??

Thanks!!!

Hi Blazingwolf,

After I had done several synchronize and soft reset ... the weather icons returned to normal :)

I have no idea what had I did..... Anyway, I would like to say thankyou! :D  :D

I am working on updating the skin. Once I am done it should fix that problem.

I have been using the Slider skin and it is setup just right!  If I wanted to add just the calendar on top using the slider txt, what would I have to add?

Quote from: joelw135I have been using the Slider skin and it is setup just right!  If I wanted to add just the calendar on top using the slider txt, what would I have to add?

You would need to increase the region size to 70. This gives enough room for the different months(unless you don't want the date header). Then these are the lines in my skin:

      changefont,tahoma,12,
                               imagebutton,116,0,reset.png,t,-1,10,0,0
      imagebutton,142,0,right_arrow.png,t,-1,8,1,0
      button,142,0,11,11,-1,8,0
      imagebutton,128,0,left_arrow.png,t,-1,9,0,0
      button,128,0,11,11,-1,9,1
      changefont,tahoma,12,b
      calendarheader,153,9,12
      changefont,tahoma,10,
      color,font,0_0_0
      calendar,0,0,153,20,12,8,l
      color,font,-1_4_-1
      changefont,tahoma,12,b
      text,157,0,[caldate],0,l,"MMMM, yyyy"
This also adds the button to move the month back and forth and reset it to current. If you don't want them you can comment them out. Hope this helps.

Thanks, where in the skin should I place this?

Quote from: joelw135Thanks, where in the skin should I place this?

This is all done in region 0.

Thanks for your help, I have it up and running. I ended up using the Calendar skin with the arrow launcher and the Weather Underground Icons. My only question is!  I would like Saturday & Sunday (S & S) to be in RED for every Sat & Sun. Basically I want a red bar from top to bottom. Thanks in advance!

This is a post in this  thread (http://www.dark-mojo.com/TodayPlus/viewtopic.php?t=804&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=40) that talks about that.

I want to thank you for your help. Here is a screen capture of my composite skin.
(http://www.waxman.org/~jwaxman/Skin1.bmp)

joelw135, that looks realy nice. I like the way you changed the color on the calendar days.

After working with this revised Slider+Calendar I put together with help from Blazingwolf and others, I would like to change one thing.  As it looks now my Calendar is on the top, then the weather followed by System Information and finally my launcher.  When I open Agenda it pushes the launcher to the bottom. Is there a way to put Agenda on the bottom at all times, no matter what opens, Even if RSS feeds or Agenda are opened launcher will not move? Thanks.

You should be able to do this by moving the code for the launcher section. It is located at the very end of the skin. Now cut and paste to where you would like it to be. EX: If you want it above the agenda section paste the launcher code before region 8. I hope this helps.

Thanks, I thought I would have  to make some major changes. I will post a screen shot when complete.Thanks again.

I tried three or four times, all with the same results!  The launcher was in the correct position, but if I opened the agenda then world time or RSS news, Agenda would disappear. And if RSS was open or world time Agenda would not open.  I checked were I pasted the code and it is after an end region and before the begin region. Real strange.

And if RSS was open or world time Agenda would not open.  I checked were I pasted the code and it is after an end region and before the begin region. Real strange.

I think I see the problem. You will also need to change these lines:

      defregion-override,1,0,70,240,56,6
      defregion-override,4,0,70,240,56,6
      defregion-override,10,0,70,240,56,6
      defregion-override,19,0,70,240,56,6
These lines are found in region 14. This code is the location of the weather,RSS and clocks when the button is in the up position. Change the 70 by about 37. Somewhere in the range of 107. Hope this helps.

Ok, I tried this still no luck, after a item would open the area would not refresh properly, and left artifacts all over the screen.  Ex: Opened battery bar, and opened clock, and ended up with six battery bars one on top of the other filling the screen.

P.S. When I hit Agenda to open it looked like it was trying to push the battery bar and launcher down, but no luck.

If you like I will look at your skin file to see if I can figure out what is going on. Just post it or PM me. I can't think of what else it might be. I'll give it some more thought.

I sent it as a PM but just in case here it is again. Thanks

I should be able to get back to you in the next couple of days(maybe sooner).

Thank you!!! :lol:

i'm new user in this software, thanks

I just installed 0.10.0 again and tried the Calendar skin which I like very much! Thanks for designing it, Blazingowlf
