Actually, in all fairness, there was such a project a few months back called OtO (One Touch Organizer), but I believe that the developer ran into some personal issues and had to stop development (temporarily). Do a search, his last revision was 0.5b (I think). The program is really good, and it actually replaces "Tasks" as well.

I will download this one later since it looks rather promising. Maybe it could be turned into a Today Plugin so that we can use it with UL. I have been thinking lately that it would be nice to have a Touch/slide-your-finger type calendar as a Today Plugin... maybe some of you could turn my idea into a reality
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] met3ora:
This looks awesome!

@egzthunder: Use a program called Calendar+ to put your calendar on UL!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] curious george:
looks great!! Would you consider the scroll wheel input for appointments date/time when you have created it. Like iphone input. Not because I am an Iphone lover. It just seems to be a really simple way to input data.

Thanks

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lazyboy0172:
finally tried out this app today...

...it's fantastic! I really like it, but I do have a question:

is it possible to only show certain types of appointments, business, for example? I put my school schedule in there so the phone will set to vibrate automatically at school, but I also have my work schedule and dates in there, so the calendar looks extremely cluttered with appointments or multiple appointments every day. It's an issue I'll get past in 2 months when school is out, I was just wondering if there was something in the config that could help Now.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ROCOAFZ:
The .4 is awesome. I'm looking forward to each release. it's a little slow on my wizard when transitioning left to right changing the month, but it is definately finger friendly. Also i don't expect it to be super fast yet as it's not even a 1.0 release. Great Job! i suggest others to give this a look.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] miata:
hi s.l.i ,

Thanks for the great app ! i would say the 0.4 release is very very usable, i really can't imagine how it would be when you release a 1.0 version :)

my only requests for now is to allow us to enter/display location for appointments. Apart from that, anyone have problem ready long details for both appointments and tasks ? Long description of appointments tasks seems to be truncated. It would be great if you can let us scroll that field or wordwrap it :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] iggy:
You can set this yourself by editing the config.ini and decreasing the 'animationSpeed= ....(the lower the number the faster it transitioning.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] cpeacha:
Would love to see the ability to choose recurring appointments

not just as weekly or monthly but the option to say how many weeks

or how many months... you know... biweekly and bimonthly...

i have a lot of recurring appointments that i do every other week...

adding this feature would make me switch 100%

Also would be nice if the animation would move a bit faster...

when changing months it's real slow...

Oh and can we have 12hr time not 24 hour... i have to think too much

on the 24 hour time...

I'm hooked though... looking forward to a full release...

Keep up the great work...

i solved my problem with showing appts.

because of pointui shell i messed with my regional settings. i defined my own, custom date/time formats. suspected it can be the prob thumbcal not showing appts. so i selected default regional settings for my country (croatian) and softreset my device. after restart thumbcal showing appts and IT'S LOOKING F'KIN GREAT :D

great potential you have here and you're goin' into right direction... keep up with good work.

rgs,

Hello,

it is possible, to change the default PIM (pocket outlook), with a registry hack?

I would prefer ThumbCal instead of pocket outlook!

For example, i use TodayAgenda (freeware today-plugin). When I apply a appointment, pocket outlook open, but I prefer ThumbCal.

Thanks

digidigi123
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rgomesf:
I don't know how to do that but you can change the softkey like this:

Change the application launched by Today screen Soft Keys

To change the application launched by the Today screen Left soft key:

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112\Open = "\Windows\Calendar.exe" (REG_SZ string, including quotes)

To change the title of the Left soft key:

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112\(Default) = "Calendar" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)

To change the application launched by the Today screen Right soft key:

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113\Open = "\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Contacts.lnk" (REG_SZ string, including quotes)

To change the title of the Right soft key:

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113\(Default) = "Contacts" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)

Note that 113 normally doesn't exist by default, and probably needs to be created

Also note that there is at least 1 application that allows you to set these through a GUI, developed by FdcSoft called SoftKeyAppletEx.

Hi s.l.i.

here is the content of my Logfile:

unfortunately I can not upload it, but the content is:

I hope this will help tracking down the probelms.

For the fontproblem: I have the TAHOMA font installed (at least I have a "tahoma.ttf" in the windows folder). But I still get another font in the input panel. After choosing ok the right font is displayed. :confused:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] KukurikU:
good thinking! hehehe...hebrew also. it didn't pass unnoticed...:D

editing in calendar will be something you are going to develop later?

i should like to make this calendar my main app but without editing...this option is out.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mozillaxom:
same here, the date calendar freeze and only pop up menu "about" and "exit" can be working, just for know: i'm using himalaya WM 05

Hope will be fixed soon,

Thanks ...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rifraf1:
To change the default calendar you can try changing the registry key

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSCALENDAR\1 = "\path\ThumbCal.exe"

for tasks the key is at

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSTASKS\1 = "\path\ThumbCal.exe"

That should change the default calendar and tasks to run thumbcal, not sure that thumbcal has sufficient functionality to fully replace the built-in apps. If you do make changes be sure you remember the original setting so you can set it back in case of problems.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MDANavymom:
I am loving this app! Can someone tell me how to get the theme to be Red with Black...in terms the graphically challenged can understand? Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] trjons:
I'm new to the thread. Didn't read all 20 pages.

Is there a reason why you can't finger swipe a day forward from the Day view?

That would be nice....don't ya think?

Also, how about a week view?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] davehutch:
I know feature requests can be a pain...

...but here's another one:

Can the appointment end time default to the start time, so you only have to adjust a couple of digits?

i.e. set the start time 21:00 and the end time automatically says 21:00 so you could just knock the hour digit up one for instance, instead of adjusting all four digits?

Jumping to the calendar can't be avoided but the above feature would be user friendly...IMHO

Great looking product and very needed too!

Well done
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] davehutch:
For MDANavymom

The file called skin.thumbcalblack.ini has all the colour codes in it.

Each colour is represented by six letters or numbers (0-1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-a-b-c-d-e-f)

The firt two represent the red level, the second two the green level and the last two the blue level (RGB)

So, if all six are the same, the colour is grey (equal amounts of red, green and blue)

On the other hand, let's say the code was 00ff00, the colour would be bright green i.e. no red or blue but the maximum amount of green.

000000 is black and ffffff is white

ff0000 is red, 00ff00 is green and 0000ff is blue

ffff00 is yellow (equal red and green)

00ffff is cyan and ff00ff is magenta

The calendar background is an actual image and to change this you would have to either colour the existing one or make a new one, same dimensions and replace the original ones in the ThumbCal folder.

Dimensions for the Calendar background are 240x294 for portrait and 320x214 for landscape

Now the good news, most graphics apps (and Powerpoint etc.) will let you pick a paint colour based on the 6-digit code, so you can try them out before you alter the skin.thumbcalblack.ini file

Is that you in the picture or are you a 60 year old man just pretending to be a Navymom? ;-)

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] aragorn21:
Hey, I just finish reading the 21 pages...

first my feedback a great app, easy to coinfigure (just like the ini principle where I can then create my Leopard OS theme)

My "Request" :

Possible to choose with a button, to define as standard view, the type of view (month, weeks, days)

Then, slide to left of right would move to next/previous (month, week, day)

Down sliding would close it

as posted, a summary of selected day tasks/ appointment in the bottom of the screen would be great

and the possibility to add a location and to assign a categories (icons are not yet necessary :p)

you don't need

this would replace the orginial windows mobile calendar

but information are store in pocketoutlook

just sync your pocket pc with activesync, then open thumbcal, all is there
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Sushikidd:
VERY NICE application.. one thing that M$ completely ignored and obviously underestimated.. ive been looking for something like this for ages.

i have a few feature / improvement requests:

*can the event end time be set automatically to one hour after the start time? (or customizable is fine too) so that we only have to set the event start time for quicker event creation. for example one hour default after the start time (but this default could be customized), and manually adjusted for individual events

*can the slide response PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE be sped up? its annoyingly slow now...takes up to 5 seconds to react...

*can a predefined alarm period be set and activated by a single tap on/off?

for example if the alarm is activated (by tickbox maybe?) its set to one hour before the event by default (but this default could be customized), and can still be individually changed by tapping the time box as it is done now.

*an option for having the mscalendar today plugin linking to thumbcal would be awesome..!

*option to choose the opening view, to be able to open thumbcal from the today view instead of the month view

*a specific exit button (how about the thumbcal logo on the bottom for that?)

*changing the month or year by tapping on the word month or year. dont forget a 'backward' function too.

*a quicklink from thumbcal to the mscalendar just in case, for more complicated appointments..

*quick tap to next or previous day(s)

*not having events defined as 'free' affect the calendar view with green colors. ideal would be 2 different colors for 'free' events and 'busy' events

* i believe editing was already on your list?

please inform which of these can and will be implemented?

thanks for this great inventive and finger friendly application! im anxiously looking forward to the next release :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rcas:
do i have to re-sync the phone and pc? I'm not getting anything in thumbcal but my MS calender is up to date.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
Thank you for the log file. I think, tomorrow will be a version available for testing. Probably I took a wrong date/time format string to restrict appointments in the pocket outlook interface. Let's hope that this is the reason...

All the other problems and feature requests are not ignored. ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] trjons:
Okay, I've caught up on reading the whole thread...whew.

After playing with it, may I strongly recommend:

(1) An option to set default start view as either Month, Day or Week.

(2) Implicit in (1) is having a Week view! :-)

(3) In Day view, since a down swipe brings up a menu, perhaps an up swipe can go back to default view.

(4) In Day view, a left swipe should go to previous day, and a right swipe to next day.

Otherwise, excellent start!

Thanks!

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
No, I think, it's the same problem as described some posts above. On some (or many) devices ThumCal doesn't show any appointment.

I will provide a test version today that should fix that.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] greg3d:
Great app, great suggestions you are getting on improving it.

Here is one from me. :)

In the first week of the month, can we show the days of last month as well? Perhaps in a different color? For instance, this month, March would display as:

24 25 26 27 28 29 1

2 3 4 5 6 7 8

etc...Showing the overlapping days of February.

Thank you bamse! File is up!

The "promised" ;) test version is available now here: klick

I hope, this banns the problems with not showing appointments. :o

Furthermore I made some changes to the context menu. The option "cancel" is not anymore. Simply tap outside its area and it will disappear. That's the normal popup menu behavior.

Other changes, bugfixes, improvements will flow into the next official versions. But for now I want to see if exactly this problem could be solved.

What I also want to say is: Thank you all for testing, bug reports, suggestions and so on. With your help the chance to develop a stable application grows and grows. (and needless to say: some more small donations would help too)

Have you seen this:?

What regional settings and language do you have defined?

Do you have defined any special date/time formats?

It seems, that the date format I use to find/restrict appointments isn't accepted from PocketOutlook on your device and all the other devices where it doesn't work properly.

I tried it on my device (LG KS20), on a Dell, Treo 750 and on the device emulators from microsoft and did not encounter these problems.

a very rushed preview ;) it looks like crap on photobuskcet, but it looks nice on my touch ;) and i WILL add the thumbcal logo, so as to not take away from the developer :)

EDIT: although it might just be the bit depth im saving at which im just noticing is 8bit. So imma have to play around..
