I would imagine that you need to change a line in your config file so that it points to your card. These are the lines i refer to:

storage,storagepath1,\CF Card\
storage,storagepath2,\iPAQ File Store\
storage,storagepath3,\Dummy\

Just change the lines to reflect the correct names of your cards. If you don't have 3 cards or locations just leave the dummy part. Hope this helps.

Blazingwolf,

Thank you for your very quick reply, I've tried out and found out that I have to put

storage,storagepath1,\Storage Card\
storage,storagepath2,\iPAQ File Store\
storage,storagepath3,\Slot2\

and now... works great... can show it to everybody  

Thanks again !

Hi,

Thanks for a great skin.  I immediately started using it after I saw your post.  I'm new to all this skinning and have very little programming experience.  I would like to change the news section that it shows all 9 the news items in one go (in other words, make the rss section bigger), but my attempts to do this caused my ipaq to freeze up and I had to copy the original skin back again.  What would also be helpful is if you do click on news and you show this bigger rss feed screen to automatically minimise the agenda and automatically maximise it again when you select the other options.  Is this possible?

Thanks again for your hard work on this skin!

Thanks.  

The changes you are proposing are certainly possible - anything is possible with TodayPlus   Unfortunately they aren't trivial. They involve reworking the RSS section as well as the way that the agenda is displayed or hidden. I'm going to have to pass on this but if anyone else is interested they are welcome to modify the skin and post the modification. If you want to have a go at it yourself you could post in the help section and I'm sure someone will be there to help.

Excellent skin   - I have one question though...

In the agenda view, how do I configure it to show only todays events?  Currently, I see events for the next 2-3 days.

Sorry for the late reply, I'm not ignoring you, just having a problem in getting this to work. I've asked for help in the forum and I'll post once I have it working.

No problems - thanks for looking into it.

blatty - If I understand you correctly you want the tasks and agenda items to appear in the same listing. To accomplish this open the recombinant.txt file and scroll down to the end until you find the following:

Code Select Expand

///// /Remove tasks from Agenda listing //////

//options,taskformat,0,13,13,%tab,68%%checkbox,0,1,12,12,checkbox.bmp,checkedbox.bmp,tr%%tab,82%Due: %subject%
//options,taskoverdue,0,13,13,%tab,68%%checkbox,0,1,12,12,checkbox.bmp,checkedbox.bmp,tr%%tab,82%%textcolor,255_0_0%Due: %subject%%resettextcolor%
//options,taskcomplete,0,13,13,%tab,68%%changefont,tahoma,13,s%%checkbox,0,1,12,12,checkbox.bmp,checkedbox.bmp,tr%%tab,82%Due: %subject%%changefont,tahoma,13,%

options,taskformat,task0
options,taskoverdue,taskoverdue0
options,taskcomplete,taskcomplete0

options,blanktext,-1,13,13,%tab,86%-Nothing Further-
options,dateformat,0,0,0,%bold%%date,MMM dd ddd%%regularfont%

changefont,tahoma,13,
//outlook,2,1,238,66,0,0
outlook,2,1,238,66,1,0


Starting with the options,taskformat line remove all occurances of  '//' Then delete the line that reads:

outlook,2,1,238,66,1,0 - make sure it's this line and not the one above it.


This should give you what you want.

I tried this, but it didn't change the listing???

Any other thoughts

Did you restart Today+ after making the changes? The plugin has to be reinitialed for the changes to take effect.

ya1950

[blatty]

Yes I have restarted TD+ and soft reset the Axim and it doesnot display the Tasks with the appointments.

Here is a copy of that area of the skin file with the modifications you suggested highlighted in RED.

Here's the version with the tasks together with the agenda. The agenda section is from OSX by rbg08. The only problem is that the tasks are after the agenda listing so if you have a lot of items for one day, the tasks only show once the agenda items for that day have passed. Let me know if this works on your machine.

ya1950,

Thanks, that did the trick. I appreciate your work on my problem.
