Now its time for me and for all to say thank you to two people having  made this update only possibly.

UK_Skinner and Rotlaus

Today, without the exact knowledge of the Skin code of UK_Skinner and the programming knowledge of both we wouldn't be where here we are.

Thank you   (http://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/midi/froehlich/a013.gif)

We shouldn't forget Jhollin1138 which provides us with the suitable platform either.

Thank you Jim

Sorry Wichtel... I don't get by that often... but thanks for the early Christmas Gift... I am still using the original Hammerskin you posted... with a few small mods... but I am very happy with it. Well other than the fact that if can be slow... but I have always found TP to react like that on my device... so I do not blame the skin.

You do great work... your original Hammerskin was really a breath of inspiration... Occasionally someone does something that opens a window... and the bar gets moved several notches... Hammerskin is one of these instances...

Not to belittle the work of others... there have been some exceptional contributers... but Hammerskin is truly a masterpiece.

 I did not see this change as you indictaed in changelog file.

"In Region 14  added an If else Statement to limit the descriptionscroll in the height."

 Maybe I need 6 eyes.. :oops:
Title: Hammerskin V 1.05.6 QVGA English
Post by: Wichtel on December 05, 2004, 03:23:11 PM
only small improvments

I have limited the Scroll up in the agenda and task region. This concerns the Scroll if within the single day.

I have made the same in the RSS text. If is the RSS text right at the top, the button can be pressed but nothing more happens.


I have installed an resetfunktion at the RSS Headliness in the lower area.

Example:
I have selected the third line at the first  Chanell and has gone to the right with to the second Chanell.  Then is in the text area the third heading of the second Chanells been shown. Now when you select the third line of the first Chanell and then go to the next Chanell the first Heading of the second chanell will be shown.

I hope I could represent it correctly with my bad English. :oops:

Hi all,
Any chance of correcting the week numbering system? I know it seems very minor but 1st week will look better on the Today page than 1th week. Same for weeks 21, 22, 23, 31, 32, 33, etc

Alternately "Week 1" to "Week 52.......


Nitpicking but .... :roll:

Could you guide as to how this could be achieved

Try the codes below.  Use the notepad open your skin.  And find the codes.  Add the new one (red one).  If you have other alarm software, just  change the pathway.



   //====================================
   //DATE - DAY - TIME
   //====================================

   changefont,tahoma,23,i

   time,4,0,-1,5,ls,"dddd",

Changed the code to add
button,4,35,35,13,-1,0,\Windows\clock.exe-highlight

However there is no response after clicking on time.
Also checked that clock.exe is present in the windows directory
Attempted a soft-reset also but it did not bring up clock program when the time is tapped on the main screen

Thankyou

button,4,35,35,13,-1,0,\Windows\clock.exe-highlight

However there is no response after clicking on time.
Also checked that clock.exe is present in the windows directory
Attempted a soft-reset also but it did not bring up clock program when the time is tapped on the main screen

Thankyou


Are you sure you added into the region 2?  It worked on my device?  If you could, please upload the skin here.   Or later I will mkae one from the 1.05.6 for you.

Edit:  Ok, I just added that code in Hammerskin1.05.6QVGA and tested on my device.  If you tap the "time" the clock.exe will be excuated.

Is there a way that the mail portion "No unread messages can form part of todayplus with Hammerskin

You might want to consider Hammerskin reduce.  Then you can have your "email" notice at the bottom. See here:

However, this is 1.05.4 not the latest one.

Great work man, like the new features added to this update, thankz. I have some questions though. Forgive me as if I sound stupid :)

I have been messing around with the code in the text file to change somethings around but I am new to this so everything is pretty confusing but i am catching onto things and learning some stuff which is exciting, hope to make my own skin someday :)

Two things that i can't figure out how to do. I want to make my agenda space bigger. I took off the news ticker which i really like but i just don't have room for it if i want a bigger agenda. I want it to go all the way down to where my shortcuts start. However, I have modified the shortcuts so I now have two rounds(more on this later). The line above the shortcuts is nowimage,2,226,dotted_line.png,tr


The second thing i want to do is if possible have the top row of shortcuts i made be like 3 tabs where I can change the bottom set of shortcuts when i select a different tab. I wasn't quite sure, hell who am i kidding, I have no frickin clue how to,lol. I tried looking over the code from other parts of the skin seeing if it would show me how but I just get confused. So I ended up making a second line of icons which i like but with the tabs I can get even more in there :) I can make the graphics for it but the coding is what i don't know how to do.

If anyone can help me out that would be awesome because TP is bar now the best today plug in available out in the market.

@HighTymes

I think this is no Problem. You can move the Shortcuts from Mainpage to Region 6 (formerly Newsticker). In Region 6 create 3 Regoins (Region 4,3 -  4,4 - 4,5) for your Shortcuts with tabs. Link this regions with Button commands (Tab) and look how it works

Ya, something like that would be perfect. Too bad that one is VGA :( I have a X30H so I am running QVGA but that how i was imagining it,just with less tabs as i don't have room for that many.

Thankz for the link guys, helped out alot. The only thing confusing is the %var references in the code now for the shortcuts.

I got the tabs now on the today page with text and highlighting when i tap on one of them but I can't seem to get the shortcut icons to show up.

I am using the handyplus skin(which i love as well) to give me a guideline as to what needs to be in the code and have changed the tab code accordingly to meet my needs but I just get confused on what i need to change to get the darn icons to come up.

Here is the code I have changed taken from the .txt

Thankz guys
Title: Hammerskin V 1.05.6 QVGA English
Post by: uk_skinner on January 23, 2005, 10:15:34 PM
To jump to the shortcut area, you need two things trigger by imagebutton/button codes, 1) jump to region,6,1 (for example); 2) assign var16.  These need to be done by two codes.

From your code, you only try to change var16 via imagebuton, and something does not look right here.

Yours:
imagebutton,152,229,launcher_1_select.png,t,-1,6,var16=1,1,-1
I would suggest:
imagebutton,152,229,launcher_1_select.png,t,-1,6,var16=1

Try these
imagebutton,152,229,launcher_1_select.png,t,-1,6,var16=1
button,152,229,width, height,6,4,1
imagebutton,172,229,launcher_2.png,t,-1,6,var16=2
button,172,229,width, height,6,4,2
imagebutton,192,229,launcher_3.png,t,-1,6,var16=3
button,192,229,width, height,6,4,3

The "width, height" is the "size" of your tab.  They should be the 1/2 width and hight of your pngs you used in your imagebutton.

As you can see, every time you tap on the "defined" area, you in fact trigger two events, jump to region,6,n and change var16.
Title: Hammerskin V 1.05.6 QVGA English
Post by: HighTymes on January 24, 2005, 12:00:56 AM
When i changed...

"imagebutton,152,229,launcher_1_select.png,t,-1,6,var16=1,1,-1"

to

"imagebutton,152,229,launcher_1_select.png,t,-1,6,var16=1 "

it made the tabs not highlight orange and stay orange once selected. If i select the tab that is already highlighted then the tabs lock up and once TP refreshes like 10 seconds later the tabs disappear all together until i hit the main page button again.


Adding

"button,192,229,18,8,6,4,1"

under "imagebutton,152,229,launcher_1_select.png,t,-1,6,var16=1 ", it didn't do anything that i could see. Maybe i am doing something wrong.

When you say, "The "width, height" is the "size" of your tab. They should be the 1/2 width and hight of your pngs you used in your imagebutton," Do you mean "one half" the width and hight? So if the pngs are 36x16 I need to set it to 18,8?

So the end result ended up like this...

No, an imagebutton is always double width, because the first half of the
pic is showing normally, the second half is shown, when button is pressed.

The height of the picture always stay equal. So if your pic is 36x16, the
button has to be 18,16.

Sorry, I thought your shortcuts were region,6,1 to region,6,3.
:oops:

Looks like your shortcuts are only region,6,3 and region,6,4.  How many tabs you wish to have?  


"button,152,229,18,14,6,4,1" means when you tap an area (which is a box start at 152,229 end at (152+18),(229+14)) will jump to region,6,1.  If you have 3 tabs the you should have 3 buttons to allow you jump to any of them.

Before we discuss for a long time, append your Skin as Attachment. With the images (Tabs). We then can look at it on our equipment and find the fault fast.

Where in the skin can I adjust how often it updates.  It appears to update about every 30 seconds, and I would like to adjust it to update less often.

Thanks.

Hi brewabel,

Update of the regions is defined by the region-command.

For the Main-section look for:

region,2,0,20

The 20 means region 2 is updated every 20 seconds, so you can change
it to what you like.

Welcome to TP forum.

1)  There has been reported that some RSS site from Taiwan can not be displayed within TP.  At this moment, no solid solution yet.  I do suggest you try any feed from http://news.yahoo.com/rss.  If it display ok, then probably something is not compatible with TP and your rss site.

2) Ok, broesel just answer that question.

wang51,

welcome aboard.  It's appears you're looking to do a few of the mods I've done, so let me see if I can step you through it.

You'll have to search for and comment out the following code:

   //=======================================
   // Heading for News (RSS) Ticker
   //=======================================

   image,4,187,headline.png
   color,font,0_0_0
   text,5,187,NEWS TICKER,l
   color,font,-1_4_-1

As well as everything after the header titled:

REGION 6 NEWS TICKER MAINPAGE   REGION 4,3-4,6

This is a pretty long section.  First start by just commenting out the sections above (i.e. putting a "//" in front of each line will do that).  Once you verify you haven't commented out to much or too little you can go back and delete it to save on size of file.


To extend the agenda, here are the settings I changed:

Changes are in red:

region,5,0,-1
   defregion,5,0,126,209,125,1

And also changed:

   outlook,4,126,203,125,0,0,228,,,5
   button,4,126,12,64,-1,24,nohighlight,5
   changefont,tahoma,12


This will remove the News Ticker header as well as the News feeds and extend your agenda down to just above the shortcut bar.

[EDIT]:  Guess I took too long to write that post.  You guys are too quick for me    :D [/EDIT]

The problem isn't either, it is TodayPlus.  TodayPlus doesn't know how to handle XML stuff (all the stuff you are seeing in "< >").   Unfortunately, there is no way to work around it unless the feed itself is changed.

   Sounds to me that probably I can do something with it.  :think:

   Can you give me more details about how TP can no handle?  My idea is to get another exe (not again) to be triggered when users tap the "update".  With careful planning, the exe can "auto edit" the "unrecongnize character" in the rss file then TP can read it.  Does this make sense?

You are right, it shouldn't be hard to do at all.  

If you where using PHP, first you should replace all the "<br />" with "\n".
$rss_feed_string = str_replace("<br />", "\n", $rss_feed_string);

With the all the "<br />" now set to "returns", you just need to strip the rest of the HTML strings.
$rss_feed_string = strip_tags($rss_feed_string)

Hopefully that gets you going in the right direction.

So do any rss feeds work at all? I am trying the hammer skin but the first page is showing only weather. no agenda or news. I have downloaded the complete package from the hammer topic on the boards. Doesn't seem to work.

If I switch to calendar and tasks I can see those pages just not on the first page. Zip nothin.

EDIT: RSS feeds still don't work and I have looked through the posts to find out how to get tp to see them. any help is still appreciated. I see talk of creating a exe to fix them but the only exe i have found is a yahoo cleanup which I installed and works, but doesn't help RSS appear.

I discovered there was some sort of bug...probably because tp is so old that selecting PI as my PIM causes the Agenda to go blank so I deselected it and now everything is working. I have everything set up and running except the RSS so hoping someone will chime in to help. :D
