Hi,

Is it possible to remove the time lines inbetween each appointment?

(the lines which give a visual reprentation of how long the appointment is)

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jimski:
I had SSMaPa installed on my Fuze to launch Agenda One. I found ThumbCal a couple days ago and wanted to change my TF3D Home Screen to map to ThumbCal, but discovered that there was a new app, SSMaHo to replace what I had.

So, following the instructions I did a full restore of SSMaPa before uninstalling it. Before I started to install SSMaHo, I checked the Home Screen Calendar and the ThumbCal Agenda Screen popped up. :) I didn't bother installing SSMaHo as now I don't need it.

Can't promise this will work for you but it's worth a try. I think when SSMaPa did its restore it looked for the default calendar app, which is now ThumbCal, so WM got tricked into restoring the wrong (right for me) app.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Ryon:
One thing..

Thank you for making this realy great calendar! Simply wounderful!

Got one thing tough..

As I work in the industy, following a 5 shift schedule.. I would realy like to save my work schedule using the recurring appointment function but prob is that "every 5 week" is not an option.. only 1.2.3.4, too bad!

Hoping for a fix in next release;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] grizano:
Hi! Same problem here. I just purchased an "unlock" code but it says it is invalid! My trial version has expired and I need to get to my calendar! Don't want to have to uninstall it!

Thanks

Similar issue here.

My wife works a 6 week rota and I work an 8 day rota (we rarely meet... secret to a happy marriage!).

I have to use outlook to set up the original rotas and sync.

An option for "every xx days" would be a comprehensive solution.

(in your case, every 35 days)

Did you take care about the owner name in your device ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nonno:
I've made a Thumbcal theme called BlackberryHD. I made it to compliment the WAD2 BlackberryHD theme made by GLOC and Fransberg (http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=14829&page=2). Its modeled on the Blackberry Storm with simple graphics and clean lines. Its VGA only. I've tested it on my Xperia X1 (WVGA) and I think everything's ok. I don't how it will go on a VGA/QVGA device because I don't have such to test it on.

Feedback is appreciated. Enjoy.…
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Elena:
Hi, did exist a theme that looks like the Manila/Topaz theme?

(Please see sreenshot below.)

Thank you in advance for your replay!

Namaste

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dgen:
this version == wow :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Elena:
Hi, what does this mean?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mr.incredible:
Now button...

I would like to see a Now button in the New Appointment creation section. I use my calendar to log my time as a network consultant. It would be nice to have a button that inputs the current time when you start then again when you stop a service call. Thanks for the great app.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jimski:
When you download and install the application there are two black themes that look pretty nice on my Fuze w/TF3D; ThumbCal_Black and Plain_Black. The Plain_Black theme is featured on the developers site.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Elena:
Hi "jimski", thank you for your replay. Yes I have see, I think at the moment are these two black theme the only one that looks a little bit similar to the Manila theme. ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nonno:
Cleaned up the graphics and corrected minor errors to my BlackberryHD theme shown a couple of posts back. Issued as V1.0b1. Enjoy.

Manila/Sense Integration

How one can make the ThumbCal systemwide including in Manila 2.1 and Manila 2.5 (Sense UI), so that when one clicks New Appointment in Manila/Sense Calendar tab, the ThumbCal's New Appointment is launched instead of the WM default one?

I tried one hack from 4pda.ru forum, but no go.

Thank you.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Bib_x:
Hi, i´m using SPB Mobile Shell 3.5 and i want that ThumbCal is used as the standard-program.

When i click "calendar" in SPB Mobile Shell, then ThumbCal opens, but when i click on "new appointment" then standard-WM Outlook-Editor opens for new appointments.

How can i change this behaviour?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] m0nkeyman:
Now that's the kind of theme I'm looking for too.

Update

I emailed the developer of this app at the end of November about updating this program for windows 6.5 to fix the double entries of the appointments and he said that he was working on it and that he's release a new version in a few weeks...

Have yet to see this... does any one know of a fix or tweak to stop the double entries in 6.5 since the developer is a little slow on this...

I've emailed him back but have yet to get a response...

Just wondering...

Craig
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] hanackin:
I'm sorry to tell you this but I think this app won"t see any further releases...:(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jimski:
Is that opinion or fact. If the developer sold the rights to Microsoft for adding to WM7 (that would be a very good thing) then I understand, but otherwise I am confused.

I have purchased pretty much every PIM application created for Pocket PC's and this is by far the best I have every used. My desktop is on most all of the time but I have created tasks and appointments only using ThumbCal for at least the past four months. I actually look forward to using this app and would gladly pay double the purchase price to help ensure future updates. Otherwise, I guess I will be using WM6.1 for a very, very long time.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] hanackin:
Hi jimski,

it is just a fact indeed :(

You check by yourself on S.L.I's forum :

http://www.thumbapps.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=11

There isn't much more activity that in this thread :(

So, maybe the app is not dead (and just on hold) and the developer is just too busy with his family, job or personal stuff (this is not a reproach;)) but the fact is that we haven't much news from S.L.I since a while and he is the only one to answer this question...

So lets wait and see and I hope S.L.I is going fine and that dev will be on live soon :D

cheers.

Download this:

http://rapidshare.com/files/187612464/ThumbCal_SPBShell_Plugin.zip

The *.zip includes just two files:

-ThumbCalSPBShellReg.exe

-ThumbCalSPBShell.dll

Just copy the two files to the installed SPB Mobile map and execute the

ThumbCalSPBShellReg.exe file, that's it.

(Source spbclub.com)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jimski:
Yep, I visit S.L.I.'s site and forum almost every day and help out where I can.

At least there is still hope :D

Thanks for the reply.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] euzada:
Same question...

Do you have an answer Thumbcal make the default calendar of WM instead of Outlook?

Thx
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] fearless139:
does anyone know how to display appointment just one or two days before it happens? My device displays appointment on today screen one week before.. :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jimski:
What kind of device? What version of WM?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] fearless139:
I use iPAQ 910c, WM 6.1

Do you have the solution? I hope there're some keys in registry can solve this

one more question:

Thumbcal can mark birthdays but the birthday doesn't display on today screen when it comes. I have to create an appointment to display it???
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jimski:
Advanced Configuration Tool has a tweak that defines what will display on the Today screen. Options include:

-Upcoming appt and today's all day event

-Next appt only

-Next appt with today's all day appt

-Tomorrow's appt without today's all day

-Tomorrow's appt and today's all day

This should solve your problem if you select one of the last two. Don't know for sure which registry key ACT is actually changing.

All of my birthday's are already recurring appointments (only have a few set) so I don't know how to answer your second question. May be a limitation of WM.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] fearless139:
Thanks for your help but I tried and it doesn't work for me. There might be some conflict in software :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] fearless139:
I notice that the WM 6.1 emulator acts the same as my ppc. Is this the WM problem?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jimski:
I don't know. On my 6.1 device, my appointments don't show up until one day before the event, both on my Today screen and TF3D Home Screen.

The key: HKCU\System\State\Appointments\HomeScreen displays what you see on the Home Screen. Not sure if List (same key) can be edited to change what appears.

Help file

Is there a help file for ThumCal?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] can6rxw:
I have followed this software for sometime now and am impressed at how it's developed. I purchased it yesterday for my HTC Touch (Vogue) and I LOVE it!! Good job to the developer! Congrats!! I highly recommend this to ANYONE who want's to buy it. It is worth the price.

Just my 2 cents :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jimski:
I don't think so. You can go to the developers forum and read through the FAQ or post a question here. The app is pretty simple to use. Just be sure to include your device type and WinMo version when posting
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] roma:
It's a great app and it looks fabulous on my Omnia II OLED screen with the black skin. I think it's the most user friendly and best looking calendar available.

One tiny point, the loading time is a bit long with a big .pim file (9MB). I want my historic appointments on my PDA. Would be nice if that could be optimized.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jimski:
Dang, that's a big .pim file :eek: (and I guess a lot of appointments). My file is 2.68MB and it takes about 5-6 sec to fully load (about 3-4 sec to become visible).

Couldn't agree more on the look, finger and user friendliness of this app.

Hi I use ThumbCal.

I have integrated to my TrouchFlo 2D (HTC Touch2).

ThumbCal (application, language file, skins are installed in Storage Card) working a bit of well, but sometimes when I open calendar, I have follow problem.

In ThumbCal dont working skin and language localization and this is a bit of mix of ThumbCal and default windows calendar.

When I open it with touchflo I have this problem. When I open it in start menu, it is ok.

Could someone help me, what I have to do?

Thanks a lot
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jimski:
I run ThumbCal from my StorageCard and it works fine from StartMenu or TF3D. Did you have to load the thumbcal.exe file anywhere else (like in windows folder) to get it to work with TouchFlo 2D?

I use Diamond Action Screen and in order to get it to work with ThumbCal, I had to load the; thumbcal.exe, language file, skin and location/subject files in the windows folder. So now I have the files loaded in two places. The thumbcal.exe can't find the associated files (language/skin) by itself. They need to be in the same folder. Not sure, but it sounds like this may be the problem.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] noooBody:
I tried to copy ThumbCal.exe, skin.name.zip and lang.en.txt files into windows folder in my device, but same problem :(

I change too

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\: MSCALENDAR

0 = (your calendar name)

1 = :MSPOUTLOOK calendar

When I set to 1 this - :MSPOUTLOOK calendar

in touchflo is opened ThumbCal

When I set to 1 this - \Storage Card\Program Files\ThumbCal\ThumbCal.exe

in touchflo is opened ThumbCal, too.

What about version type? I have 1.2.5 version and skin (last version?) are downloaded from official web site (different version between instalation and skin :confused: )

I add some screenshot of thumbcal...

2010 01 27_10 16 30_0000_111a.PNG and 2010 01 27_10 17 04_0001_111a.PNG are with bad opening (in touchflo opened)

and second 2 pics are opened well.

I will be very happy if you give me some advice again. Thanks

edit: when I open ThumbCal in Start menu and then minimalize. Then I open calendar with touchflo and calendar is opened with skin and my language.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jimski:
I never changed anything for :MSPOUTLOOK. It is set as:

0 = MSPOutlook

1 = poutlook.exe

But :MSCALENDAR and :MSTASKS are changed:

0 = Calendar

1 = "\Storage Card\Program Files\ThumbCal\ThumbCal.exe" calendar

and

0 = Tasks Application

1 = "\Storage Card\Program Files\ThumbCal\ThumbCal.exe" tasks

Did you change MSPOUTLOOK or did ThumbCal? I never wanted to mess with anything that had a poutlook.exe path.

I am running ThumbCal licensed version 1.3.5 and the skin I am using is Plain Black, the same one displayed on the ThumbCal website. Why are you running 1.2.5? A lot of things have changed since then. If you have a license all you need to do is load the new version and enter the key.

Attached are a few screenshots of ThumbCal on my device.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] noooBody:
to jimski:

Thanks a lot ;) I downloaded last version. When I had it in storage card, it didnt work. I uninstalled it and then I have installed it to device. Now it works well :)

I

rewrite HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\: MSCALENDAR

to default value and default calendar is not open and thumbcal is opened :)

Thank you :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] catman51:
Can you tell me exactly how you changed it? I will move it to main if that is the answer.

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jimski:
Glad to hear you got things working although I am surprised ThumbCal did not work from your Storage Card. It works fine on my device.

I am a bit confused with your MSCALENDAR comment. When you set ThumbCal as your default Tasks/Appointment app (in ThumbCal settings), :MSCALENDAR and :MSTASKS are mapped to ThumbCal. Nothing to change.

But if everything is working as you like then there is no need to mess with it :D.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gras69:
Hi,

I have changed from the 1.3.4 on them 1.3.5. Now, however, the time has appeared to 12 hours with the appointment input. How can one change again on 24 hours?

If mine excuses please english, I use a translator.

Greetings gras69

All I can think is that you your regional settings have changed. (Settings/System/Regional Settings).

Some appointments don't appear in Thumbcal (and also in SPB shell agenda)

Hi,

I noticed that some appointments don't appear neither in Thumbcal nor in SPB shell agenda. These appointments are shown in Outlook and also in default WinMo calendar application. There is no filtering set in ThumbCal.

What is the issue here? What is wrong with these appointments?

Please help.

Thank you,

Andrew
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jimski:
Just a guess, but is there a Category assigned to the appointments that don't show? Maybe ThumbCal needs to see a category even without a filter. Been using ThumbCal for eight months and appointments are always there.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gras69:
Thank you for the tip, it had found meanwhile itself out, but it was the problem.

Greeting gras69
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jimski:
Looks like your request has been answered. FYI, s.l.i released a new beta version (1.4.0 BETA 4) of ThumbCal today (for registered users) which directly addresses the WM6.5 double entry issue and also adds a few things, like search :).

And he says there is more to come :D. Go the the first post for the link to his site. The Beta release is in the site Forum under Beta Testing.

I am not running 6.5, but I dropped this new version over my original install and everything is working fine.

UPDATE: New version, 1.4.0 BETA 6 now available for testing. More tweaks.

A suggestion

Hello,

Thanks again for this app.

I have a suggestion for this app.

I'm no programmer and I don't know if it is hard to realize or not.

It would be nice if there was a week view with the appointments or tasks embedded.

Maybe it could be nice that the up - down scrowling will move the calendar from one week to another - or set it as an option.

Cheers,

Dam

Here is the greek translation!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TacoLoco:
yeah great app fingerfriendly and works on vga device :D but I noticed a bug when I delete an appointment there is no way back to the calendar view..
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
Swipe your finger to the left in the dayview to close it. ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TacoLoco:
ok it works :)

btw can I make my own skin for vga? I only found the background pictures in the ThumbCal folder and a skin file but how to edit?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
Take the skin.thumbcalblack.ini and modify the colors to your needs.

Save it under skin.[yourskinname].ini and point the skin-variable in the config.ini to skin.[yourskinname].ini

Full VGA support will be available in next release. At the moment it runs in an emulated mode on VGA devices. It meens, that the app screen is stretched by windows.

I will add an option to simply change the theme and language in one of the next releases. So that you don't have to fumble in your config.ini
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] :
Just installed the 0.4 version and wow, the progression on this is impressive. Fantastic job - appreciate the app.

As per your last post - looking forward to changing themes, etc

Great Job !!!!

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
Please submit your device type, OS version.

The popup menu appears when you short click a date, where no task or appointment exists. If any appointment or task exists, you will get directly to the detailed view.

On long screen tap on a date you will ever get the popup menu.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] davehutch:
Excellent stuff!

just what was needed.

I have a feature request...can you have a drop down selection of Months and Years if you press on the Month and year name at the top?

Would make it faster to move say, four months ahead. Not too many though, nice and large for thumbs still.

Keep it up, excellent.

Search fonction

Hi !

It would be nice to be able to set an interval of date in the search fonction.

Cause it will only search in the next appointment. And it would be nice to be also able to search in the past event.

Already a great app anyway.

:)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Irishpride:
Nice!! Looking forward to it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Beards:
Beta 13 is now out.

s.l.i.has now mentioned no further development work will take place for the time being... only bug fixes. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
Yepp, but this regards only version 1.4.0. ;)

More features will come with > 1.4.0...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Beards:
Now that we have 'Strike-through' for past appointments:-

What's the chance of having some of the past appointments that have strike-through to show with no strike-through.

In other words I have some past appointments that I want to still leave active even though they have passed.

With this it would then be great to have a search function to search for all past items that do not have strike-through..... if you follow my drift!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
Hmm... for that we would need at least a special property per appointment to identify such a "I-am-a-past-event-but-do-not-strike-me-through"... :confused:

By the way, here is a coupon code for a 34% discount: SPRING2010

It is also valid for 1.4.0
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Beards:
Ahh.. this strikes (pun not intended) as being rather difficult to achieve.

I rather like the idea of the strike-through but would not wish all items to have this.

However, I do understand if this would make the program complicated for such a small request. :)

BTW ~ why did you mention a coupon code to me?

I already hold a license for a previous edition which I paid my son to obtain for me (he handles all my business equipment procurement).

I don't mind paying extra if the latest v1.4 has things which my previous license will not allow.

If so I will pass this on to him to obtain a new license :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
No, the discount code is for everyone, who did not buy a license but plans to do so.

The license code will still be the same also for 1.4.0.

Sorry for the confusion. ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Beards:
Many thanks.... understood. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Isadora:
