Counting

[uk_skinner]

Wichtel:

 Can you try (47.61,-122.3) Vancouver?  I double checked the number were correct in registry key, but the length of day is still minus...

[Wichtel]

Cool: there is an Bug if you have an entry with three letters bevore the dot e.G. -123.1 the minus is shown. If you have an entry with two letters before the dot e.G. -12.31 the minus isn´t shown and the Daylength will be correct displayed

Uk:no luck with Vancouver  

[uk_skinner]

Thanks Wichtel...

Another bug???  If you uses "countdown", the number of days for all-day and appointment are different...

Hi, UK,

The date number that I want to change color for is the one in the Calendar (on the Today, Appointment, and Task screens), where the NUMBER of the present day is in bold. I would like to make it bold AND red. Sorry if I'm not making myself clear.

Hi, UK,

The date number that I want to change color for is the one in the Calendar (on the Today, Appointment, and Task screens), where the NUMBER of the present day is in bold. I would like to make it bold AND red. Sorry if I'm not making myself clear.

Then use this:
options,dateformat,1,15,15,%changefont,tahoma,11,%%line,202,10,-1_4_-1%%textcolor,196_0_0%%bold%%date,l%%regularfont%%resettextcolor%

It will change all you date into red.  At this moment, I don't know how to change different color for today or tomorrow.  Anyone, any idea?

It will change all you date into red.  At this moment, I don't know how to change different color for today or tomorrow.  Anyone, any idea?

There is no solution for different colors for today or tomorrow. Everyone  the same or nothing at all.

[dgmele]

I'm afraid that I have still not made myself clear. The bolded number signifying today's date that I am referring to is in the calendar in the upper right hand corner of the Today page (and in the bottom half of the Appointment and Task pages):

S M T W T F S
1 2 3  4 5 6 7 . . .

I seem to recall a discussion way back when that concluded there is no way to change the color (except by srs). Time to give up on this one, I guess. Thanks anyway.

dgmele:

 Sorry to get that wrong again.  

  Maybe there is a possibility but it might not be perfect.  I will try some experiment and let you know it can be done or not.

Edit:  Sorry, my idea was too naive...  

[uk_skinner]

Well, after several hours of experiment, I think I have something like this:

1)  Right now, only will work on the calendar on the Main page.

2)  Your firstoutlookday will be labelled as "red" color.

3) If you tap anyday on the calendar, that day will be labelled as "red" and the poom section will updated as usual.  The today will still be bold.

4)  At this moment, I worked out only for Jan and I will see I can work it out at least for 2005.

[dgmele]

Amazing! How did you do it?

[uk_skinner]

Amazing! How did you do it?

If I can get it done, I will try to post the codes here by today.  At this moment, I only can get it work on main page not in agenda section.  

[uk_skinner]

dgmele:

  Just finished the codes.  This is the "beta-test" codes.  Get a lot of room to improve.  This is only for 2005.  It gives us one year to figure out the better solution.

 The idea was very simple.  Use calcvar to get firstoutlookday.  It is normally  today's day.  Based on the number do a serial calculation to get the right corrdinate for the "position" of day on the calendar.  Then just text the day with specified "bold" "color".  

 Since I need a lot of var to do the caculation, I "recycled" the vars from other section.  As far as I can tell now, it did not affect the function of other sections since the vars were reset back to default values when you switch.  However, I would suggest you to keep the eyes on it.  All the codes are just before the end of region 5 (except one in the region 2).  If you sense anything wrong, just delete the codes.

 So here are the codes.  The new ones are in red.

Hi, uk_skinner,

Thanks for all your hard work. However, although I've checked everything very carefully I'm not having any success in getting the codes to work. I'm using the lastest skin (1.05.5 QVGA Eng) and have pasted the codes in red in the appropriate areas, but I lose all the right-side icons on the Main page, the News Ticker headlines have disappeared, and the date though bold is still black. Can't get to any of the other pages. I clearly have done something wrong, but am not skilled enough to know what. I've attached my pasted skin should you be interested in seeing where I went wrong.

[uk_skinner]

dgmele:

  I got the same problem when I used your posted skin.  However, after I replaced the caculation portion from mine into yours, everything looked fine.  And I was pretty sure that I did copy/paste the codes from my skin into forum.  So far, no clue what happened.  Anyway, please try this skin.

hi uk_skinner,

looks great!  
i try to modify vars for VGA but i'm not enough good for it...

this is the part of calendar code:

   image,362,10,kalender_header_senkrecht_main_grau.png
   image,388,10,kalender_header_senkrecht_main_rot.png

   calendarheader,232,10,26

   calendar,0,0,232,36,26,20,l

   button,232,36,182,120,-1,23,0,5
   button,232,36,182,120,-1,23,1,5

   button,232,36,182,120,-1,23,3,5
   button,232,36,182,120,-1,5,-highlight,5  

if it's not abuse, can you give me the correct var?

thank's
