i had tryed to install in wm6 pro but the clock doesn't work. Anyone know wy???

i read over the net that this clock doesn't work on wm6, this is true or i must do something to make it work??

Thanks

Update: i got it!!! works now.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Zimaia:
thenext1, do you have any plans to implement date on the clock, only the number of the day??? that could be nice!!! :)

Congratulations for your work
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MTM:
Yes, I see that now. I just tried to run it on my computer and it didn't run, so I thought it was meant for the phone :p

Thanks a lot! :)

It works for me on a KS20 with WM6.

I don't know if I will ever update Retro again, xcept for fixing bugs, because I have got no time.

If I find some one that is interested on taking this project and bringing it ahead, maybe I'll release the sources.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mlemons:
Source

I would love the opportunity to check out source for both the clock as well as Redit as I would like to see if it would be possible to port it to windows mobile so that you could edit your clock faces directly on the phone.

Hi thenext1,

Just trying to motivate you about retro. :)

This is a skin that i made to mach my theme of wad2.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] thenext1:
Really good! No, actually one of the best designs I've seen!

The best way to make me go on with Retro is to spread it and see some use of it (for exapmle posting your clocks elsewhere).

If I see there's enough interest, I could also release the sources; I got various requests to implement digital date/time, making it identical to the standard WM date/time plugin... and I ain't got enough will to do depressing things like that :D

(I'll be putting this one on the first post...)

Hi thenext1,

I had try to edit your cab file because i wont to have 2 installations of retro in my ppc. This is important to me because i use retro as a plugin inside wad2 and need to have the retroclock with different skins in different pages.

Well after a wile trying i suppose this is to muth sand for my truck :)

any help???

thank you.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] thenext1:
I'm not sure I'm getting it ... you want to have 2 instances of the plugin with different options? It's not blazing-easy to do... Meaning, not difficult, but it'll take some time...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Zimaia:
Yes, that's what i mean!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] thenext1:
It's not easy because I don't know another plugin that allows this. I should place my settings elsewhere (not on the usual software\microsoft\today registry key) and you should be able to access the plugin option screen directly from within WAD 2 and tell it each time you reboot which clock do you want and where.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Zimaia:
Thank you soo muth,

I think that with my theme (you probably had already check it out) retro will be more used :) I have already 300 downloads of the the theme so that 's what i can do to make retro more used. It's a fantastic clock in my opinion.

Creating Skins

I have tried making skins and editing existing skins: Redit sees my skins and displays them ok but anything I create is not visible when installed to device.

I am using Photoshop to create the .png files for Redit, and I also tried Photoshop Elements and Illustrator with the same results.

I can't seem to find anything in this thread or in the Redit help giving any speial requirements other than 16 bit color depth. Anyone have any ideas on what can be wrong?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Zimaia:
if you upload here the png files you had created i can see what is wrong
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] itsall_cooool:
Thanks for looking, attached is a background layer I made using Photoshop.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] itsall_cooool:
Hmmm didnt see the attachment so i will try to re-post
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] itsall_cooool:
Actually that was a file I attempted to alter properties to see if it would work, here is the original layer I created and want to use
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Zimaia:
that is only the background layer, i need all the files to build the clock and see if it works
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] S.V.I:
Why would you want to???

In order to get that transparent look, you need to save the files as PNG-24. saving it as gif or png8 will not do full transparency.

It is a lot easyer to change that in photoshop, than doodling it on a ppc.

Also, I would post the PSD file for my transparent clock... but I can't find it anymore. sorry.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] itsall_cooool:
Well I was attempting to use that background and change the background layer of the 'diamond retro' skin by ezmike, I liked the hands he made and only wanted my new background, but when it displays on the device all the original components show except the new background.

In Redit everything shows properly. I made a few test hands and tried them on this and other existing skins using redit to the same end, which tells me its the format of the original .png file I am creating.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] freddy_krueger:

I tried to make a clock file using redit that is 240x160. I was trying to make use of the clock to take up some extra space on the sides. it worked flawless in redit, but it failed to work well on my ppc. the clock background showed up as it should, but the hands were all over the place. it worked in redit, why not on the ppc? is there a fix for that?

It was supposed to have 3circles like a dashboard... I would really like to make that clock.

any help?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] thenext1:
the problem is a friggin' bug somewhere in the calculations that happens when you choose non-square clock sizes.

unfortunately this makes oval and "widescreen" clocks impossible to make, without also sacrificing equal vertical space

Hi

I have a question , i have created a 160*160 clock to use in Wad as a plugin, but it take all of my screen ,not juste 160px

Si i cant put anything on the right or the left of clock :confused:

If there a way to reduce size of plugin ?

For example : if i create a clock 128*128 sized ?WAd 2 reserved 128*128px

space for it , free space on sides on the clock .

Thx for replies

That's why you shouldn't give up on it.

without wont to credit myself, i am one of the people that most publicize your clock app.

Many skins in lakeridge forum have your clock app and i believe that being started several moths ago including retro in my first skin helped making retro one of the most used today clock right know. You can see mt theme with your clock in this link.

Please at least, even if you do not make anything else with retro, implement date in retro.

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] solox:
Really nice ones!

1) where can i find the nice icons you have under your clocks?

2) a smaller clock would be nice, to fit a calender under, but hm, after thinking about it, a simple program to slide between different todayscreens would be even greater (have a full calender on the next page), but i guess not that simple to make.

Anyway thanks for sharing. Analog clock is the ****
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] thenext1:
I know you are behind a big slice of Retro's popularity and I heartedly thank you.

It would have been beautiful to have working date and digital text the way I planned long time ago, but unfortunately I have got no time and willingness to put hands in Retro. It is difficult to do, especially skinned fonts. Lots of hassle and tedious bookkeeping in the code.

Besides that, I already said that if someone wants to contribute or "endorse" Retro, I'll give the sources away for the sake of human progress :D

Why won't somebody make a skinable digital clock today plugin? We can skin the clock on SPB, Throttle Launcher, TF3D, TF2D, HTC Home, and everything else, but what about JUST a skinable Digital clock without having to have a whole new GUI or program launcher. I like the plugins that I have, and I like the Skinable clocks, I don't want all that other stuff and I think TF3D is a joke as far as useability.

Bell & Ross with white markings on black background

Hi! I just discovered the Retro program and these wonderful clocks. I have an HTC Touch HD and they look beatiful. I especially like the Bell & Ross as it looks like an aircraft clock. Has anyone seen a version with white numerals and hands, like a real one?

one-line per-plugin restriction

hello there

i ve been using smartphones and pocket pcs for the past 8-10 years and probably this is what i was looking for sinces ages

and thats why my first ever post is to praise it...

Very nice work.

there was a post that said

I tried the smartphone version; any chance you can add y position in xml and break the one-line per-plugin restriction, to place it side by side with other plugins (as in MadBeetle clock plugin)?

i wanted to request if there could be this same facility for pocket pc i.e if i could add it as a plugin in spb pocket plus and have small icons with it along the sides... cuz i use a small clock

and have many application shortcuts for ready referrence on the today screen

i was wondering if retro could use Spb times coding for his clock so it would add a very big functionality boost to ur excellent product....

looking forward

sincerely yours

Clock....

I must say I wanted this clock from the time I saw it only for the Smartphone. It doesn't dissapoint, the hands are especially wonderful.

However, in the mean time, I got used to "Today's Time" plug in, with it's crappy hands, mostly crappy clocks, and it's resetting of options every time my PocketPC is reset or runs out of battery.

So, in order to ween me off of that, I have to do a much smaller clock (all these skins take up WAY too much real estate!) and beg that you consider adding in some other info to the sides it leaves open.

Of all the ugly clock backgrounds that come in the Today's Time, this is the best one I found, but still the hands, yesh! The animation feature sucks too, every time you come to the today screen, it winds the clock from noon, and paralyzes the system. Everytime the phone is reset, you must disable this again.

PS: Your clock installs in a snap, and works far better, you have to go to today settings at least twice to get the Today's Time clock to work.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] thenext1:
lol, I appreciate your thoughts... are u sure u installed the last version of today's time? :D ...

Anyway, adding digital time/date info is already on my short list,and will begin working on it after the 22th (i've got a school exam!)
