you're welcome :)

the next build allows to switch up to 3 Views with different animations, but unfortunatelly i had to rewrite the animation-engine and that affects also the available animations. So.. need some testing.

what device are you using? I've compiled the dlls to use a higher arm-core-version.

and that's the problem hehe

according to msdn http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb431817.aspx

TodayAgenda seems to return FALSE always.. so according to the API, that means that the Plugin does NOT handle the event. Hence TodayAgenda looses the focus.

The solution you've chosen is just a workaround.

I can't change that behaviour in HS++, because it is against the API. Wouldn't you agree?

To me.. it's not a bug in HS++, but a bug in TA.

true.. thanks for reporting :)

It'll be fixed in next build.. i guess this weekend.

you can use SecondToday with HS++.

I could provide a cab, which contains HS++ and SecondToday preconfigured to load HS++.

This way you can start HS++ as a normal application without the need to add it to the todayscreen. With next version of SecondToday you can set in the options, that it shall close on tap on [X].

I've read posts of people claiming that SecondToday is a huge app.

--> Don't believe that ****. It's an extremely small app using about 35kB of Memory-Resource (without a plugin loaded). You can see it e.g. with the TaskManager by dotfred. With a good TaskManager you can see which app is using how much memory.

But of course.. if you're adding huge plugins that needs much system resource.. that's not the fault of SecondToday.. so.. that i have to say hehe
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] lepsyfou:
that good news

ikarus as you could solve the problem of the slide when the parade quickly we get a bug watching the screen

I am not the only one to have this problem, other members with other skins know what worries

Look here>>>> and look>>>>> more bug >>

Try to point at PocketWakeUp directly (executable file) not at the shortcut.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
could you provide some things to me. It will help reproducing/finding the problem much faster.

The best would be:

- theme files

- step-by-step instruction: which tab, slide how fast, which direction, slide with thumb or stylus
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
don't mind. I've found the problem hehe

It'll be fixed with next build!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] saturax:
Hi Ikarus,

I'm very impressed by the fast improvement of your application, it's really amazing to find new features in each builds. I'm following your progress with a lot of attention like my French collegues from actualitemobile and I try to adapt my skin to the last version each time you upload one.

Here is a screenshot of my actual skin.

Now my question:

as you can see, I use a skin with 4 rows, the second one is composed of 4 views with today plugins in, I would like to slide these views instead of using the small arrows to switch view so do you plan to integrate the sliding feature for tplug in your roadmap?

in any case thanks for your huge implication in this develloppement which take a lot of your time.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] lepsyfou:
héhé thank for your support my friend

je suis impatient a la sortie de la nouvelle version :D

I am impatient this out news release

( LOL traduction google translate)

diferent xml for secondToday?

is there an option to use another apperiance for homescreen plugin placed on today and on second today using "secondoday" application?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] jac:
ikarus,

Thank you for your quick reply and over the top helpfulness!

I don't in any way want to give you any extra work...

You certainly have your hands full here.

It's no wonder this thread had been running so long! Kudos!!!

Q: Will what you've described below, open and close with in Spb mobile shell?

PS: To make life easier for you, I'll wait till the next version comes out...

Thanks for you time and effort :)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Andreal:
Hmmm, there is sliding option for tplug, use gesture="1"

eg.

<item class="tplug" ... gesture="1"... >

Now you can use gesture (left or right, doesn't matter) to change view :)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] saturax:
Hi Andreal,

Yes I know this option and I already use it but it doesn't work like I want with this skin because on the "plugins" view, the fist one is the clock and it's not a plugin

What I want to acheive is something like that:

<Row rowtoggle="1" name="plugins" seperator="0" >

<View height="160" selmode="-1" multi="1" animate="101" slide="1">

<Item class="clock_digit" ontap="TerminateCommMgrApp" onhold="StartApp" path1="shortcut\alarm.lnk">

<image left="45" top="45" />

</Item>

<Item class="clock_digit" ontap="TerminateCommMgrApp" onhold="StartApp" path1="shortcut\alarm.lnk">

<image left="77" top="45" />

</Item>

<Item class="clock_seperator" ontap="TerminateCommMgrApp" onhold="StartApp" path1="shortcut\alarm.lnk">

<image left="114" top="50" />

</Item>

<Item class="clock_digit" ontap="TerminateCommMgrApp" onhold="StartApp" path1="shortcut\alarm.lnk">

<image left="128" top="45" />

</Item>

<Item class="clock_digit" ontap="TerminateCommMgrApp" onhold="StartApp" path1="shortcut\alarm.lnk">

<image left="160" top="45"/>

</Item>

<Item class="clock_alarm" ontap="TerminateCommMgrApp" onhold="CtlPnl" index1="16">

<image left="190" top="25" />

</Item>

<Item class="date" ontap="TerminateCommMgrApp" onhold="StartApp" path1="shortcut\calendar.lnk">

<label text="dddd d MMMM yyyy" fontfamily="Tahoma" bold="0" fontsize="16" left="50" top="95" width="210" height="30" valign="center"/>

</Item>

<Item class="tPlug" title="calendar_for_pokeP" gesture="1">

<label width="206" left="240" top="15"/>

</Item>

<Item class="tPlug" title=""TodayAgenda"" gesture="1">

<label width="206" left="480" top="15"/>

</Item>

<Item class="tPlug" title="PocketWeather" gesture="1">

<label width="206" left="720" top="15"/>

</Item>

</View>

</Row>

And consequently the whole row/view become a big ribbon with all the plugins.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
great :)

there is a difference between slide and View-switching. If you slide a View, then there is a continous movement (controlled by your thumb) and an actual state/position of the visible part of a View.

Usually slide does make sense only, if the width of your View is much wider than the screen-width. This way you can reach the invisible part by taping and moving the View horizontaly.

If you switch a View, then the current View gets deactivated (with all it's indicators) and a new View gets activated.

I guess you want the latter for your Views hehe

In principle i could extend the gesture-attribute to Views. It doesn't need much code and time, because the code is already in HS++ for the tPlug-class. It's just limited to the tPlug-class for now.

I could remove that limitation and make gesture="1" always on for non-tPlug-Views. I guess there is no drawback by doing this, since it adds the feature to switch Views not only with an actiontype for ontap, but also with gestures.

I haven't had enough time up to now for thinking a little deeper on this issue.

it would take much more time without all the users testing here hehe

no problem hehe

I don't know for sure when, but the fixed build will be released either later on today or on sunday/monday.

yes.. Clone the registry and installation-folder of HS++ and add the registry-value DWORD Inst=49 to the new HS++-registry-home.

Use 49 for first instance, 50 for second instance, 51 for third instance and so forth..

I'll release an example for multiple instances soon (next week)..

it's not really extra work hehe

it's just modify a .ini-file (add SecondToday.exe and settings.ini) and build the cab.

i don't understand.. you can add Spb mobile shell to SecondToday as with default-todayscreen.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] prscott1:
animations great

I have had a chance to test all the animations (i.e, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 14, 15, 16, 20, 21, 22) on my Wing and they all work very well and very fast (a pleasing look to the eye). The only funny thing to report is that the zoom and blend with the left and right exits occasionally give a slight distortion if the view they are exiting have many graphics on them, other than that, all is beautiful and executes perfectly!

:D
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
Version 1.06 - build 0338 - 09/05/2008:

- fixed: add exception to taskmanager

- added: first working version of View-Switching for up to 3 Views, View0 (index/subindex), View1 (index_1/subindex_1), View2 (index_2/subindex_2)

--> e.g. <Item .. ontap="View" index="0" subindex="1" index_1="1" subindex_1="1" index_2="2" subindex_2="1" >

- added: actiontype for "Do Nothing", ontap="DoN" or ontap="DoNothing"

- fixed: static selected item with slide="1"

- added: left/right-gesture for View-switching

great :)

in principle you can change your scripts for switching multiple Rows by the new index_x-feature hehe

AppLauncher Help!!!!

May be this might be a stupid question.... but how do I use applauncher in homesreen plusplus?

can I embed it in the homescreen plusplus theme xml file?

thanks in advance to all
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] iago_00:
another question?

is there a way to read from the registry using <Item class="registry tracker" ....> the appointment start time and end time.

I actually found the key in the registry but it is binary and I don't know how to "translate it"

thanks again
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] saturax:
Hi Ikarus,

Thanks for the new build, I will try to adapt my skin to use the gesture view switching :)

Another idea came to me this night: do you think it could be possible to "fix" the position of a row in the windows to avoid it to move when the other rows are toggled off.

For example: at this time, in a windows with 4 rows, if you keep rows 1 and 4 and switch off rows 2 and 3, the 4th row moves up because there is nothing between it and the 1st row. What I would like to do is to fix it to it's position in the bottom of the window. A kind of absolute positioning of the rows in the windows with a left/top attribute.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
you're welcome hehe

are the bugs fixed?

yes :)

but reloading of the plugin does not work with HS++ yet.

Applauncher.exe will be extended soon (supporting "apply to View", Use Itembackground and others).

there is a way with external scripting.

I could build in a function to translate the appointment, but there is no trigger for updating that value (because binary data isn't covered by update-notifications)

Maybe with next version 1.07 which allows cascaded trackers (which makes use of trigger-ids).

you're welcome. You don't have to add additional attributes for gestures. They are enabled by default for any View.

hm.. i guess this request is due to art design needs. Is that right?

Maybe with version 1.07.

The pre-testing code for 1.07 implicates major changes in data-structs for reducing memory-usage and advaced landscape/portrait-support.

I could check if it's possible, but at first i need an example to verify if it makes sense to allow such things hehe

So.. could you make an example? Maybe there is a theme / image out there showing the benefits of such a feature?

You could add this to the feature-requests at http://www.chi-tai.info/discuss (in case you think this feature would be really used often).
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Raulka:
Guys!

I would like a solution to the background theme (tsk) changing. e.g if i have five tsks in My Documents folder, than if I tap my tsk changing button in my HS++ theme than load the next theme. How can I solve it? This is working in SPB Pocket Plus good...

Thx!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] RedUser:
Hi ikarus

Strange, but on the new version it has ceased to work:

<Item class="battery_meter" absolute="1" ontap="CtlPnl" index="3">
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
I'll check this.

ups hehe..

as a workaround you can add subindex="0", but i will update a fixed build later on
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
Version 1.06 - build 0339 - 09/06/2008:

- fixed: subindex-default to 0 for CtlPnl

- added: animatebg-attribute for background color (BGR-Format) of animation, e.g. <Window ... animatebg="0x000000"...>

fixed with build 0339 ;)

thanks for reporting!!

Changing the theme by today-options works well. Could you provide two .tsk-files for me to reproduce it?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] lepsyfou:
yes thank you bug fixed

any question from members actualitémobile

"Is it possible to move several row at the same time? "

:D

edit: thank you for this update Ikarus = Greatest developpers Xda
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
great :)

What do you mean with move rows?

do you mean switching several views in different Rows?

If yes, then you could do it with ontap="View" index="row0" subindex="view0" index_1="row1" subindex="view1" index_2="row2" subindex_2="view2"
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] lastnikita:
Hi Ikarus, even if I have no problem with your app I keep coming and check every day or so for a new version.... we are some addicts :D

Would you please consider apptodate support ?

It's a ten min job, including reading the documentation :)

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
hehe :D

wait.. version 1.07 seems promising and introduces interesting features hehe

but it's still a long way to there.. i guess it will be useable by christmas or so..

At first i want a first final release of 1.06

i've tested it some weeks ago, but failed to get it to work with my download-system.

Maybe it was the fault with device-emulator, but i couldn't get it to work, so i gave up..

I'll give it another try soon.

btw. i'll remove the launch-commmanager / terminate commanager-function (and from options) since (i guess) it isn't used anymore.

so.. i'm now out for playing some discs/music and having some fun :D
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] lepsyfou:
edit résolue ..
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] bluber:
i had that request a while ago too :-) when i was also working with tones of rows. The way i was told to achive changing views and rows all over the place was via tinybatch. you just need to stop rendering, list the commands to do the changes you want, and at the end start the rendering again.

i think it was like command 6 and 7, dont know if this is still possible or which commands you need for start and stop rendering
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Zimaia:
Hi ikarus,

Well thank you for your work but the way you use to describe the new features of hs++ is to much technical for me :(

I remember one post were i asked you to describe in a more friendly words because there are a lot of people right now that don´t understand what they can do with your fantastic app.

I ask you once more, please try to explain your work in a different way

Thank you so muth
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] lastnikita:
Preview ? :D

Well I got it to work on first try some months ago, but since it needs the xml to be part of the downloaded cab, I'd have to modify your cab each time in order to maintain, so it is useless if it's not included by you ;)

I could post the needed xml by the end of the day, so that you just have to modify inside the build number for each release, would that help ?

Have a nice day :)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] :
Hmmm..hm huh?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
it's all about the time i have... hehe

the left/right-gesture does not really need explanation.. just use your finger and do a left or right gesture on your touch-screen ;)

the second new one is switching of several Views. Let's say you have three rows (Row1, Row2 and Row3) each having 5 Views.

If you want to switch the Views of Row1 and Row2 simultaneously, e.g. showing View1 of Row1 and Row2 or showing View2 of Row1 and Row2 and so forth, then you can make use of the new index_x feature.

index = number of Row

subindex = number of View

--> Add a button to Row3 and use the action as follows:

for switching to View 1

<Item ontap="View" index="0" subindex="1" index_1="1" subindex_1="1"...

for switching to View 2

<Item ontap="View" index="0" subindex="2" index_1="1" subindex_1="2"...

and so on..

the third new feature is having a different color for the background, while the animation performs. Just try it and you will see.

e.g. without animatebg-attribute -> the theme-background is used

animatebg="0" -> black color is used (0x000000): BGR -> Black = 00, Green = 00, Red = 00

animatebg="0xFFFFFF" -> white color is used: BGR -> Black = FF, Green = FF, Red = FF (whereas 0xFF is hexadecimal and is 255 in decimal).

Hope it helps..

The "bad" thing is that if you have studied computer science, then there are a lot of trivial things and i don't know what's not really trivial hehe

.. so let me know if i can help in understanding some of them. It's not a problem at all ;)

it's not stable yet hehe.

I spend much time on my research at the university on multitouch/tangible and multimodal interaction, such as on multitouch-surfaces and it's really exciting :)

So.. time for HS++ is less (mostly weekends), but there is time, because the ideas, concepts and the community around HS++ is exciting as well and i enjoy and really like the code-base of HS++ hehe

I'll try providing an early preview, but really don't know when.. so.. don't expect it soon..

i have built such an xml, but another example would be helpful as well.

Do you know how many users are really using apptodate?

You know it costs time to maintain another file for each build.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] lastnikita:
Well I was just wondering if you could tell us some of your plans..

I feel like a child the day before christmas xD

While I'm almost sure it won't help much, here it is, attached.

Actually I have no idea (maybe Paul from modaco could answer that, since he has downloads stats), but I know for sure that the more softwares are supported, the fastest it will grow !

Well my point is you just have to change the build number in the xml (no real need for changes history or fancy descriptions, interested people can come here to check that out), I think it's no big deal, regarding how much (textual) support you already offer on this forum :)

It could even be easily automated, while compiling or when launching a script, using source code build number to build the xml for you, no ?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] lepsyfou:
hello everybody , hello my friend ikarus :D

question:

Hi,

A new question with you last release of hh++, i have updated and now when i switch between different subindex,

my image src is cut like you can see on the screen attached.I tested with a animatebg and not and it s the same

result.Have you a solution for solve it?

I hadn t this pb with previous release ...

thanks a lot

Screenshot:

thanks advance
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
some of the features planned have been leaked here in other posts :D

in principle it could be automated hehe,

but the build process now is already some kind of complex...

i don't mind supporting good freeware tools or ideas and the people behind.. so i'll give it another try hehe

hi lepsyfou :)

the image shows the source? or is it within an animation? I can't interpret the problem with the image.

could you send me your theme-files for reproducing?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] lepsyfou:

do you know if in a futur release, will you add a fonction to link in a index a .swf (screen) like a png?

clock diamond "flash swf" :D

i installed the lastest version on my diamond, the software is great...

but i'm having trouble with configuring the round up functions at call times...

i'm in hk & here they round your voice calls in minutes, my settings are 60 first / 60 after...

is it the right one i got? coz it seems to be correct for the outgoing calls i've made but it doesn't seem to round up my incoming calls as i got the record of seconds but it shouldn't be there...

please let me know if i'm missing something here or is it a bug on the incoming call... thx guys

I've flashed my ATT Tilt with the new HTC/ATT WM 6.1 ROM. The program won't run at all. The cab opens and installs without incident, but nothing is running. I've tried the basic version as well and the same occurred.Worked great with WM 6.0

Version 1.06 - build 0340 - 09/08/2008:

- changed: animatebg="0xFF000000" for using todayscreen-background

- added: actiontype for toggling flight mode, ontap="ToggleFlight"

try build 0340 :)

i'll check if it's possible, but flash needs sooo much resources hehe

it's intended.

are you paying for incoming calls?

is it installed on sd-card or main memory?

btw. i've removed the option to install on sd-card, since people install on sd-card and wonder why it doesn't work hrhr..

it does work only on some less devices with sd-cards.. so i guess it's better to disable that option.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] iago_00:
Hi Ikarus. First of all I want to compliment you about your excellent work. The hs++ is just great. I find everyday new options and I'm amazed by the potentiality of the plugin.

I wanted to as you is there a way to make the "ontap" selection background to transparent? I mean when I slide (drag) a view of items I don't want the selection background to appear.

Thanks again and keep it up
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
great :)

did you tried custombg="-1"?

see http://www.chi-tai.info/cs_batterystatus_xda_neo_wm5_ext_cust_im_cs.htm and search for custombg

you will have to add a selmode="3" or so.. maybe look through the examples there

Hi all,

I've been using this great tool for a while...since its old name before HS++. However, I never felt myself using all the available tools of this great software yet.

I have now looked into the BSCalltimes.xml using CallLogs.exe provided at the 1st page.

I do not seem to be able to manage to view my call times...only empty screen display after launched CallLogs.exe.

I tried viewing the calltimes.xml with my IE on PC, it still can't view it...saying Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet.

only Notepad will do. I really love to keep track of my phone usage so, if any of you have a suggestion, your help will be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance
