hi SLI . the next one with email problem ;)

my problem now: i unistalled last version and installed this new one, but it does not accept my registration code, what must i do ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] -Arturo-:
Nice to know that I wasn't the only one:)

Sli this version is what I've been waiting for. Finally I can assign a reminder to a task....love it:) Regarding the new version could we get an option to attach files to tasks, apointments and also an option to display birthdays and anniversaries in the next version of TC?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] hanackin:
so after testing, nice job but i'm a little bit disappointed because the default calendar options still have no effect on the calendar softkey....

I know i can do it manuallly but icontact do it automatically so why not thumbcal ?

except this, it works fine and thanks again for this marvelous calendar :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ironman76:
Thank you, i love it:)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] camro:
i'm missing the function to switch to day view.....

if i switch the month and want to go to a day, then it wants always to make a new appointment.

BUT i only want to view the day ....then i had always wait that thumbcal had loaded the db inside - until this it is not possible to switch to day view .....

hmm :(

+ it is a little bit faster as old one... but reload the db on every new view is slow - redraw is slow (if switch to other month - maybe thumbcal can handle this with extra cache on next version ?)

(with the extra dayview link - with start paramter) it works fast.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rwertz14:
Who will this email be coming from, just in case for some reason it get's delivered to my junk mail folder, I don't delete it by accident?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
It should come from shareit but you can also use my contact form at thumbapps.com .
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] martin.doktor:
I love iphkali skin, but it seems that doesn´t works with new version
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bluemetalaxe:
this skin works with new version
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
Hmm, it should work. The skin system didn't change from 1.0.x to 1.1.0

Look for the location where ThumbCal is installed now. The skin.zip must be in the same directory.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] martin.doktor:
Thanks, now it works, but I had to do that manually, because cab installation doesnt´t works for me. / on SD card /
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rwertz14:
So we can go ahead and request license info through your site now and instead of waiting for the email?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
Yes, no need to wait. Just mail me! :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nir36:
the new version is great. thank you so much.

i just.. need the code to register it :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] snachez:
Yer it does, maybe you installed it to a different directory ? I think the .cab I made defaults to /program files/thumbapps/thumbcal and the new TC 1.1.0 defaults to /program files/thumbcal.

Here's an updated version that goes to /program files/thumbcal instead.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nir36:
it works well
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ninja.rogue:
I have contacted you now, due to this problem.

Waiting for fix.

Thank you

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Blowfish64:
Yes, which is why I still can't buy this program. :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sakul84:
I purchased 1.0.7. version of your great application.

After the 1.1.0. was published I wanted to download it, but it looks like I need to pay for the update agai.

Is this the case, or am I doing something wrong?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
No, once you have payed for a license you don't need to pay again for this update.

As I mentioned earlier, actually an email should be sent to all people who bought a license. But this email seems to not reached all the people.

Please use my contact form on thumbapps.com and provide me your Owner Name and a ShareIt oder id or the email you used for ordering.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] grodi:
Found a bug...

sli, I'm afraid I found a bug in this new version; when I try to set an appointment, I can only set a date, but does not allow me to set a time. It just sets the current time, no chance to change it.

Could you please check it out?

Regards
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] camro:
for changing time - click on time

for changing date click on date

cu camel
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nir36:
it works exactly like 1.0.7...

woot.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
Hmm, excuse this question but did you try to tap on the time string directly? Since 1.1 you can change date and time seperately.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] camro:
no, see post also from sli :)

RTFM :)

on version 1.1 you can select it extra

CLICK ON DATE -> for changing date

CLICK ON TIME -> for changing time

cu camel
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] grodi:
Oooops, didn't know about that. I guess I should read the manual before posting :D

Sorry, s.l.i.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
:o Manual...?

Maybe I should write one? But in the thumbcal->history page on my website is a small changelog which describes that. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] krypton22:
The new version didn't install as default (had to do that manually), but that's alright. I have a feature request: in poutlook calendar when you enter a location of an appointment, next time you are offered a rollup menu with a history of locations - saves time. How about making this feature available in TC as well?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
That's a good idea.

The same functionality was suggested earlier for the subject too.

It is on on my list. :-)

BTW:

I released an update version 1.1.2

It is very important that you download it.

I fixed a bug in registration algo that made problems on some devices and crashed ThumbCal or didn't accept the right unlock key.

- now shows the location of appointment in detail view

- fixed a bug when "Hide Complete Tasks" was set

- sliding from day to day in day view is faster and smoother

- fixed a bug in registration algorithm

- fixed a problem with task reminders
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] snachez:
This seems faster all round (placebo effect?). Thanks for the prompt update.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
Hmm, don't know. Day view should be faster. The other ... :confused: :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] deuzeff:
Hi s.l.i.

very nice realease, the scrolling between days is definitely faster than before.

I would like to point out something I just saw (before I forget :p). I added some comments to an appointement, those appear when I select this appointement, no problem. However, when there are many lines of comment, there's no way to scroll them up/down.

This behaviour does not happen with the tasks for example, with these you are able to scroll down/up w/o any problem.

Thanks again ;).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] egrzelak:
excuse the naive question, but how would i make it the default calendar?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] camro:
sorry sli, but the problem is the SAME !

can you not make on the menu: "new apointment" / "new task" also a point "day view"

because if the db isn't load - i can't go to the day view !!!

and if i go to other month - the reload is so slow, ( don't know why he had to reload all again ...) and always i had to wait til thumbcal load inside the db - and only then i can switch to day view if there is an apointment.

and why had the programm reload the hole month from scratch again, if it was load before , then it should be VERY quick - or ?because thumbcal had load it before .... but i had to wait on switch to other month and back tzo the same month very long ...( 5sec) before i can go to day view and see whats there.

on the other hand the extra command: "day view" works very well and fast

"thumbcal calendar -vd".

please make for minimum solution make extra point day view - this would help a little/BIG help :)

PS: perfect tool - i like it

thanks cu camel
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mentis:
So I just bought this via shareit. It says the key I recieved is invalid...I've tried typing it wrong. I'm sure I messed something up somewhere...help! I love this software, that's why I bought it!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nir36:
thanks sli... for your hard work. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mentis:
I got my issue all fixed. Turns out I had an old version installed. Got it sorted out and registered. thanks for your prompt reply!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nir36:
1.1.2 runs very very fast.. everything's smooth (and the task reminders are great :))
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] camro:
@ sli:

one smal thing - but easy to implement:

appointment duration:

if i create a appointment with time: from 10:00 to 20:00.

then i change the start time from 10:00 to 11:00 ->

the END TIME was modified to 12:00

this is because i had default 1h or a appointment,

but it should looks like MS Office

What does Office ? -> Outlook change then the "end time" so, that the duration stay the same. In my example: duration 10h.

-> so thumbcal should then work: 11:00 to 21:00 and should hold the duration of the appointment - so long as i change the "end time seperatly.

i hope this is clear for you, sli.

great work - sli :)

trouble registering?

s.l.i - trying to register 1.1.2 with a 1.0.6 key. using name the product is licensed to as owner.. but keep getting invalid key message. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

1.1.2 seems to be faster.. keep up the good work.. thanks...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nir36:
sli mentioned that the key mechanism changed to owner dependant...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
cj2125's problem got already solved in the background :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mozillaxom:
Hiii s.l.i

Nice update, is there any planning for skinning taskbar (battery and signal bar) for matching with A_C owns?

just my suggestions :)

Thanks

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] KamaL:
A minor thing, which I assume was asked before:

In the month view - the week starts with Saturday, when according to the date it should be Sunday. Any way to fix it?

Thanks

I modify Traditional Chinese language file for ThumbCal 1.1.2, If you need it, you can d/l the file and put it into \Program Files\ThumbCal, and then you can select 繁體中文 to use.:)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] frenchglen:
Has anyone used Agenda One as well as ThumbCal and if so how do they compare? This looks interesting...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zonsoft:
Sorry if this question was already answered, but is it possible to persuade ThumbCal NOT to create shortcuts in Start Menu?.. Thanks in advance.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] deuzeff:
Just go and delete them :). Use FileExplorer, RescoExplorer or Total Commander, whaterver you have, and go to Windows\Start Menu, and delete the folder created during install ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zonsoft:
Thanks for the answer but you are absolutely wrong. Thumbcal 1.1 creates shortcuts during program start (or shutdown, maybe) every single time. I don't need them but don't want to delete them every time manually or by script.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
Hi,

don't beat me but unfortunately TC now creates them every time it starts. :o

I will change this behavior as soon as possible with an update.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zonsoft:
Thank you! I was just wondering if there is kinda command-line switch to change this behaviour - I believe there are lots of people who want to have it different ways...

BTW, the program is really nice.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
Hmm, actually the month view should start either with monday (eg in germany) or with sunday...

It depends on what you have set up in pocket outlook.

I've never heared from such a behavior...:confused:

Could you make a screenshot of your month view?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] deuzeff:
I was completely right, I just didn't know that since 1.1 there was this "new" behaviour.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zonsoft:
Sorry if a was too rude and thanks again.

You've just answered someone other's question.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] flyingmachine:
color for categories

Hi Sli,

your application seems very great, but for me, the possibility to assign color to categories is missing. maybe it's in your "things to do list"?

btw the filter menu is great but you can't filter several categories...

so if you can tell us more about those features...

great job
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] KamaL:
Ok, fixed :)

In Pocket Outlook, it wasn't set to any day, so maybe it made the mess. Now I set to to Sunday, and everything is fine.

Keep up the good work!

bug:

(i'm not sure if sli read it , because i also wrote some small bugs and heard nothing about it ...

any way:

.) BUG: moving an apointment to other date

1.) create an appointment with monday: 5.9.2008 / 8:00 - 15:00

2.) try to modify the date from 05. to 15.09.2008 (only change date)

bug: time will change to 8:00 - 9:00 (but i haven't change something)

bug: in the list the changing will not active/update and it looks like that

-> it should be then on the new day-view

(for now - you have to exit the list and after that then it is in corrrect date.)

.) BUG on changing the start time from an existing appointment

1.) create an appointment with monday: 5.9.2008 / 8:00 - 15:00

2.) try to change the start time from 8:00 to 9:00

BUG: after changing the app change the end time not to the logical 16:00 - it change the time to "starttime + default duration" (im my case (default is 1h so it changed to 10:00)

.) BUG: it is not possible to go to day view if there is no entry

i know there is an entry on the date, but loading the db is to slow, so i want to open the dayview also.

.) BUG: changing from one month to next and after that back to old starts reloading the db once again -> why reloading DB ???

please can you change this or let me know what are your plans about this bugs ?

cu camel
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
At first: sorry if I do not reply to all posts. Sometimes it is hard to reply on every message.

I will definetly take a look at the described things but I don't know if BUG is the right word for all the points given above. :rolleyes:

Anyway, thanks for informing these points and helping to make the application better.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] camro:
yeak - correct -not really bugs ..

change requests, new option :)

sorry sli + thanks sli

i was not sure, that you see it - there are so much other replys with normal stuff of user, which are only not know how to use the app or install regkey :)

cu camel
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
No problem, I am really thankful to people those who are helping me to improve this application. I have a list where I write down the most of such feedback - assuming I don't miss it - and try to keep that in mind when working on a new release. :)

BTW: 111 posts!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] custardo01:
I also would like to see this and fully support your request. When I look quickly at the month I can't see what is work and what is personal/social so I have to go into every individual day to find out what is what. Would be nice to have an overview in the monthly view with different colour categories.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jiggs1337:
Id also like multirows for the different appointements as well as different colours. So if i have app1 from 5th to 10th, i see a green line from 5th to 10th in month view. If i then have app2 on the 7th, i see the line interrupted for app1. It'd be nice to have app2 be a second line underneath app1.

Outlook on the pc does this.

I made a quick example using a screen shot. Here you can see multiple appointments in different colours taking up different rows so that the user can tell which are continual and how many per day.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Matthy_47:
yes - thats a good idea!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] snachez:
What happens if you have more than the 10-12 appts/lines that will fit in the box ? It spills over or gets hidden ? I think the current way is clean and uncluttered.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jiggs1337:
Maybe have a limit to show at most 5, and a 6th line means more than five. Or, use a small number in the corner. I just find it hard to know how busy a day is compared to another at a glance. I might have a 10 minute appointment set on a day, and 5 longer appointements on another day, but both look just as busy on the month view.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TauTau:
does it support different colours für different categories? (in month view that is...)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] LoriInWa:
I am disappointed by this bug as well. I don't have the skill to fix it, so it's really annoying not to be able to access Thumbcal as my default calendar. :(

To the creator, please fix this bug or provide a cab that fix it, please!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lit2fly:
why there is no copy and paste function for all the text input boxes?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nighos:
can anyone tell me how to delete an appointment in thumbcal?

thanks a lot!~
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Olioaglio:
Tap on the day with the appointment. the appointment will show up

on the following page in detail. Tap AND HOLD on the appointment again

and after a second a menu will appear with following options:

Edit

Open in Outlook

Delete

Edit as New

Thats it. Tap and Hold also works for creating a new appointment on

a day where are already existing appointments instead of opening detail view ;)

Olioaglio
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nighos:
got that

thanks!

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] A2E:
Suggestions

I appologize if any of this was already written, but I'm not going to go through all the dozens of pages in thie thread.

First of all, I must say this program is amazing. I've used Agenda Fusion in the far past and Pocket Informant for the last couple of years, and the simplicity and usability of ThumbCal is simply amazing! It may not have all the fancy features of the others, but it's so usable and clear that who needs any of them!

A couple suggestions/bugs/etc.:

1) I can't seem to delete a meeting's Location after it's been entered and saved.

2) If I want to create a multiple-day meeting on the last day of a month, I can't select the 1st of the next month even if it appears on the same screen. I have to scroll to the next month to select the 1st.

3) I don't like the fact that when you create a meeting it starts by default with te current time. I mean, what are the chances of me wanting to start a meeting at 13:27 ???

Meetings should start by default at a round hour - either the current one, 8:00, or the earliest free time - doesn't matter. But the minutes should be by default zeroed. Having the minutes un-zeroed adds extra steps to creating an appointment.

4) When you have many meetings in adjescent days on the week-view, the time-bars get a little confusing. It not intutive if, say, monday's bar is the one above monday or below monda. Moving them a hairline away from the day's border would make this a lot clearer.

5) Say I work a night shift that begins at 7pm on monday until 7am on tuesday. Both Monday and Tuesday now say "Night Shift", so when I'm on the week view looking at tuesday it's not clear if Tuesday is the end of the shift or the begining of it. Yes, there are the time bars, but this is still pretty confusing. Adding a > or < sign at the end of the meeting's title would make this a lot clearer.

6) Would be nice if you could select colors for catagories and have the time-bars represnt these colors.

7) I would really, really like cop and paste. Often meetings are the same as existing ones, just on different days, and it's a lot easier to copy one instead of re-entering it. Yes, I know you can "Edit as New", but that's not the same.

8) On my Diamond, even though I've set this as the default app - the shortcuts on TF3D still take me into the built-in WM PIM

9) Many programs (built in Diamond Program tab, SPB Mobile Shell etc.) show program icons without their names - and since all of our icons look exactly the same, one can't tell the difference. I would make the Tasks icon a slightly different color, and for the two "New" icons I would suggest some sort of star instead of the hand (and obvioulsy the New Tasks should match the color of the Tasks icon)

10) When previewing an appointment it should show the Notes too!

11) How can I change Saturday to be red rather then Sunday?

12) What about repeating (rather than recurring) appointments?

13) If the time shows 06:09 and I want it to be 06:00, I would click up on the 9 once. Right? Wrong! Clicking up on the 9 gives you 06:10, not 06:00. Please fix this.

Again, great great GREAT work!

How to add Contacts/invites to Appointments and Meetings

Hi,

Can anybody tell me how to add people to my appointments? They are entered and visible in the normal agenda, but I can not see them in Thumbcal.

Please help...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tuuquy:
You try changing the name thumcal.exe to calendar.exe then copy to \windows. Goodluck!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
A2E, some of the points are known and will get fixed soon, some require a bit more time. Anyway, thanks a lot for the list. Please excuse me when I don't comment all of these things here. I am working on it. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
You can set it as the default calendar through ThumbCal's settings menu.

Unfortunately ThumbCal doesn't hijack a softkey at the moment. But this will get changed. Also a lot of other applications call the poutlook.exe directly and do not check the according registry key for the default calendar app.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
At the moment there is no option for adding people to an appointment.

This will definitely come in a future version.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kolokas:
thanks guys......its ok....thank you...

Hi,

The Key that I received does not work. I entered it several times to make sure I was typing it right but thumbcal keeps telling me "the unlock code is invalid". Please advise. My trial period has expired and I did not get an answer from your website or from share it !!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
You have a PM.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] stopthebus:
Hi,

I am currently using the trial version, and I have 1 problem.

When I open Thumbcal, the program open just fine like any other apps, but the page is blank. It takes 3 to 5 seconds for the events/appointments to populate the page. Is that normal or am I missing something here? Man!...this is a deal breaker, otherwise just what I've been searching for.

Device: VX6900 CDMA

OS: WM6.1
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
Unfortunately this is the behaviour if you have a lot of appointments/tasks at the moment. I am currently hardly working on a much faster solution for this.
