Hi

I found a bug, I more and more desperate.

I have "absolute" on 3!

If I at the first image "top" set to 0 it moves under the labels, if I set "top" to -1, it is absolutely back to the upper left corner.

<Item class="space" ontap="StartApp" path="\Storage Card\Program Files\WebIS\PocketInformant\PocketInformant.exe" >
<image src="images\bg_info.png" left="0" [COLOR="Red"]top="-1"[/COLOR] height="24" width="240" />
</Item>
<Item class="registry_tracker" ontap="StartApp" path="\Storage Card\Program Files\WebIS\PocketInformant\PocketInformant.exe" >
<label suppress0="0" text="%s" top="0" left="5" fontsize="14" align="left" width="230" bold="1" fontfamily="Tahoma" valign="top" format="singleline" >
<registry key_value="HKCU\System\State\Appointments\HomeScreen\Subject" />
</label>
</Item>
<Item class="registry_tracker" >
<label suppress0="0" text="%s" top="11" left="5" fontsize="12" align="left" bold="1" fontfamily="Tahoma" valign="top" >
<registry key_value="HKCU\Software\multiviews\NextAppStartTime" />
</label>
</Item>

I can simply not set "absolute" the "image" as a background for the "labels".

A second mistake is, that the cursor to the "labels" is wider than the row of the "labels".

So after coming all this, is not clickable. (play, ffwd, rwd ...)

What about it? Probably I incorrectly do something, probably the device does not correspond.... Probably something else...
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
the root-cause is that some code of an installed app is consuming 100% of idle-time. Hence the measure of idle-time results in 100% usage of system.

--> BS shows you the right value at all. Showing a different value means that BS doesn't work correctly.

btw. you're using BS to show you such faulty system-behaviour and you want it to do this.. don't you?

To get this back to work, uninstall the faulty app. My guess is that there is a service installed which caused this. As a developer you know how to remove that service, but as a user it's not that easy... the best you can do is a hard-reset :( (And of course, be carefull with what software you're installing)

what is the benefit apart from that positioning is less accurate (which is considered a drawback)?

btw. could you move it to the themes-thread?

update to the latest build. If it still does not work, then the best is to use the normal-version. On some devices, something with cryptography service provider doesn't work as i expected (maybe i haven't understand anything yet or csp has been modified on that device) and i couldn't find the cause so far :(

that i don't understand. i've tried your sample, but it's working correctly as i can see. The difference in positioning is 1 pixel, which is what it is supposed to be.

You're misusing the image-tag in the sample.

The image/imagealt-tag within an Item is an active element, which is taken account in ontap-recognition.

A background-image is a passive element, which isn't considered in ontap-recognition.

Check the background-example, switch-view-example and imagealt-example at customization-manual.

hm.. i don't understand?! What do you mean by "cursor"?

Could you explain with other words? You may add a german translation as well if it's easier.

btw. could you move this to the themes-thread?

ups hehe i'm sorry.. Had a lot to do and fixing bugs has high priority..

The menus are dummies for now.

There are plans to develop a calculating-module which reads in an xml-configuration for a provier plan/rates and a user-xml-file.

- The xml-configuration contains costs/times to count, e.g. cost of sms, calls, data, inkl. traffic and so on.

- The user-xml-file contains information about a phone-number, e.g. if it's a mobile-phone, if it's in home-network/foreign network and so on. With each adaption of the user-xml-file the cost-calculation gets more accurate.

The popup-menus enables a quick add or modify of the user-xml-file without manually editing the user-xml-file.

I'm still thinking about the concepts, but i want to make it modular so that other developers can supply modules and thus help developing.

I don't know whether there are developers want to help, but if there are, then i can make the CallLogs-Project (echo 26) opensource. Just let me know if there are and i'll coordinate the rest.

Does that help?

WAWA Alarm Clock and PNG ?

Help solve the problem:

App WAWA Alarm Clock, which is active in the registry key writes default /Mini SD/Program Files/Alarms/235467.wawa. When the alarm clock is turned off - removes a record default.

How can substitute a picture of activity alarm clock?

Tried to create topics in the catalogue BatteryStatus folders: Mini SD => Program Files => Alarms => 235467.wawa.png does not work.

Any idea?

Hello ikarus,

is it possible to assign startmenu shortcuts to the built-in tray icons?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
hm... that's strange..

the batterylevel is not retrieved periodically.

The battery-driver notifies the plugin of a change instantly.

The refresh-rate should not affect the indicator for batterylevel.

it seems something wrong in the chain battery-driver -> plugin

btw. does devicelock on wakeup work on your device? That's an indicator for me to sort out causes.

You could send me your email-address and we can look for the cause if the problem still persists.

freeze on installing programs and exiting from Today screen options

Hi, running build 286 on a Prophet with Korand's WWE3.1 WM6.1

BS runs great for me (running load-based overclocking with standard options), but with 2 minor issues:

if I'm installing certain applications (smaller ones don't cause this problem), like Flexmail - I've been installing a new beta every couple of days - the installation will progres to about 15%, before asking where to install, and then the device freezes. The way to install the app is to close BS down, then all goes fine. So it seems to be a conflict when WM is loading the installation file into memory somewhere??

the other issue happens when I've been to the Today options in the Start/Settings. Whether it's BS or another plug-in, as I exit out of the Today options, I try to exit from the Settings screen, and the device freezes. the CPU/RAM indicator beneath the clock begins to show just CPU, then the device freezes. If I go to the options via the display on the today screen, everything is OK.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
are you using other taskbar-applications like wktask, quickmenu or anything else with indicators in taskbar?

If yes, then don't use taskbar-indicator/taskmanager of BS. As i've mentioned in the manual.. it will not work for long-term.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] mr_deimos:
Hi, Ikarus.

I've been having a little problem with BatteryStatus CPU scaler for some time now. I tried to do some testing so that i can recreate exact circumstances when it happens before, but i've been unable pinpoint the direct cause.

I'm using BS' CPU scaler to underclock my wizard (min speed set to 100, max speed set to 195 - stock wizard CPU speed) to conserve the battery when using non-cpu intensive applications like MortPlayer (even 100MHz is more than enough for it), S2P (not as CPU-friendly, but still runs well underclocked), or reading e-books.

I also use S2U2. And the problem is that sometimes when the device gets locked with S2U2, CPU speed gets stuck at the level it was just before locking - even if the device was underclocked to 100MHz and after unlocking CPU stays at 100%, clock won't change. I have to disable and reenable the scaler to make it work again.

It's not a big deal if you use the scaler only for overclocking, since you'll usually end up with stock speed (the device is usually idle just before locking), but with underclocking there's a problem, since when i receive a SMS or MMS, even displaying the notification takes a while, and viewing it (and loading outlook) takes ages. Also, the sound notification usually gets played with a few short pauses. All in all, that can be quite annoying ;)

As i said, i'm unable to pinpoint the circumstances when this happens, but it seems to be connected to S2U2 and happen when the phone goes to sleep mode - both automatically and manually by using the power button.

Anyone else experiencing something similar?

Oh, and yes, i do have "overclock on wakeup" enabled.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] wanwarlock:
thanks for the reply. it does update either as i said or when i click on the today plugin it self.

device lock on wakeup works for me. never used it before since reading your question.

btw using ver 1.05.101 beta 5

edit: should i update to more recent version?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] bigu1975:
ikarus,

I have got the same problem on my HP iPAQs: rw6815 and on 614c. The problem is that the battery charge level after the device is turned on is frozen and it is updated just after I select the plugin. The same is for charge icon: when I disconnect device from power supply the icon will not change until selecting BS (highlight) plugin.

What is very important here: described behaviour appears only when the BS plugin is as a second (not first) one on today. It means that for example when the first plugin on today is HTC home and as a second one is BS the problem is present, when the BS is under HTC home it is okay. And it is doesn't matter which plugin is first.

This is minor problem for me but I described what I found and maybe this will be useful for you.

Regards,

Bigu1975
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Madana:

Version 1.05.109 - build 0294 - 04/17/2008:

freeze on trying to leave today settings screen

I've got nothing - apart from the BS task-bar indicator up top. No task managers via the OK area. ilauncher installed, but its task management functions are disabled. Using AEB Button plus, but this doesn't affect the task bar either (a list of tasks appear, but in the middle of the screen).

tried the latest build, running great, but a visit to the today screen options page still requires a soft-reset
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] holmanm:
ikarus,

With this build, in landscape mode, the right side isn't refreshing correctly. I had powerdrain in the first row, right justified, but it wouldn't show up so I had to move it in between battery and operator. Attached are a couple of screen shots showing how the dialog "sticks" in the open area. Again not a big deal but I thought you would like to know.

Could you disable ilauncher, do a softreset and do the test again?

Maybe you could find a today-plugin interfering with BS?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] paul c:
That it, Ikarus! It was iLauncher. Hmm, I've just been browsing their forums, they seem to have had problems interacting with other apps (Wisbar advance), so the problem seems to be theirs...

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Madana:
I have noticed that after version 285 both the battery charge icon and the power source icon the to left of it in the first row started bloating when tapped, turning into their large rough and ugly replicas.

I am not sure if it is a flaw or a feature, but to me it looks at stark contrast with the otherwise sleek and polished BS interface.

Is there a way to get rid of the bloating icons?

Hi Scott,

i've just tested switching of Views by command-queue and it is working.

Nothing has changed for this.

Are you sure, that you've supplied the command correctly?

How do you call this command? Do you have given a valid row/view?

yes, you can disable this.

Either remove any selmode-attribute in the xml-theme or set selmode="0" to windows-tag.

Danke EUMEL, ich bin ein Depp, hast gleich Doppelt Recht ! das war nur ein Beispielpfad von ikarus. Aber das Leerzeichen vor den Doppelpunkten habe ich natürlich auch noch vergessen.

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] holmanm:
As someone who doesn't speak German, barely speaks English (since I'm American), I thought this was strange. If you Google translate "colons" to German you get "Doppelpunkten". But when you translate "Doppelpunkten" to English" you get "Double Points". So I was expermenting and found if you translate "Doppelpunkt" to English you get "colons". This may not seem strange to someone who knows German, but I thought is was weird.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] eumel79:
The meaning was Double Points, he forgot the space between the exe and the Double Points.

Second, he forgot set the path to the registrysetstring.exe.

hm.. yes bugreports welcome hehe

there will be an update later which enables left/right-gesture to switch between multiple Today-Plugin-Views within one Row.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] eumel79:
Some plug-ins are not included in the selection (UltimateLaunch)

Icarus, you plan to do it customizable to the xml?

I would like make a tabskin with multiple views.

And several Today plugins on one side.

(an "Item" per TodayPlugin should be the best Option, so i can integrate more than one Todayplugin in one view and multiple heights)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] prscott1:
Ikarus, I am testing this feature. I added a plugin to row 1. I found out that some of my icons are now missing from my theme and are scattered about.

Is there something we should change in our XML file for more control? thanks!!!

Edit: never mind - I realize the plugin has to be between rows already existing in the theme and then reload theme and it works! I'm testing different things with it now. It can't be last row - is that right?

2nd Edit: I'm adding screenshots with simple theme adding Ultimate Launch as the plugin. the separator line shows up even though I didn't select it. but works very well so far.

1st screenshot is before I add plugin. 2nd screenshot is after I add UL plugin. 3rd and 4th screenshots shows cube in action with UL plugin included as row 2 (row 3 is hidden in all shots).

Version 1.05.114 - build 0298 - 04/23/2008:

- added: left/right-gesture for switching between multiple today-plugin-Views within one Row

You can add only disabled plugins, that is you must remove it from the todayscreen at first. After that the plugin appears in options of BS.

hm.. it's difficult. I thought a lot about this.

I think that "injecting" Row/View/Items programmatically into the Paint-Matrixes is the way to go, because this way i got functions for other features as well.

e.g. Now i can use the available functions to inject an application-launcher or any other items..

I will think about possibilities, but the problem is the diversity of today-plugins.

Of course you could create such a theme for your device, but the theme will most probably not work on other devices.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
I've designed the options for good usability, but it seems not so obvious hehe

Steps are:

1. Unload the plugins (the ones you want to integrate) from todayscreen

2. Tap on "Integrate Today-Plugins" (Advanced Tab of Options)

3. Tap on "Add" -> a list of useable plugins appears

4. Select a plugin and Tap on "OK"

5. Enter the Row for the plugin

5.1 If you want to inject a new Row, then Check "Create Standalone-Row"

5.2 If you want to inject in an existing Row, then enter the View

7. Tap on "Add" again in order to add the plugin to the list

8. Leave the options

btw. if you inject a new Row, then the numbering of Rows are changed too. e.g. If you inject a new Row 2, then the former Row 2 becomes Row 3 and so on..

If you want to add a new Today-View to the newly injected Row, then use the same Rownumber again.

The action ontap="View" will get adapted automatically to fit the new set.

Does that work?

If you have several plugins in one Row, then you can switch between the plugins by left/right-gestures on that plugin.

Animations will follow in later builds hehe
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
yes, that's correct. A limitation for now, but will be allowed in later builds. I want to know whether the concept works at first.

You don't need to reload the theme. It should work right after leaving the options.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] prscott1:
works great with Ultimate Launch in the middle! See post 3543 above for screenshots! :D

edit: anyway to lose the separator line after Row1 before my plugin on row2 (in screenshots in post 3543)? I don't have it set to be on anywhere that I see. thanks again for a great app!!!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] prscott1:
I'll have to test this and see if it interferes with the left/right gestures that are part of my plugin (UltimateLaunch).
