@slimshadee

Thanks for confirming the problem... still looking for an answer and will post here if I find.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] pencilcase:
I also have the font issues as stated above but without having changed any fonts ... (Alex 5.2 ROM)

I was really disapointed since this looked like a great app!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
Hi,

to those who have this font problems: Please download this test version here and comment if it works now correctly. It is not neccessary to put the exe into a special folder. Simply copy to your device and run.

BTW: Next version isn't very far anymore... ;)

- task/appointment editing

- config menu for: language, skin, some other params

Not working for me

Hi!

that trick sounds great, but is not working for me... I tried replacing the default ":MSPOUTLOOK calendar" string value with the path for ThumCal "\Program Files\ThumbApps\ThumbCal\ThumbCal.exe" but I'm getting an error message... Any idea? Dir anyone succeed in pointing the calendar to ThumbCal?

Cheers
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dan1967:
do not replace the :MSCALENDAR value! only the "1" value from the same folder (that is exactly what the message said). You may need to put the path in double quotes ("\...\.exe")
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] steackbrit:
Hummm... ok I get it; thing is that's what I intended to do, but I'm using Mobile Registry Editor and apparently with this utility it is not possible to edit the "1" value.. I'll try something else

Thanks for your help

Cheers
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] pencilcase:
works now ! thanks for the fast update !!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] deedee:
I had the same trouble with Mobile Registry Edit when trying to change the default Contacts App. I downloaded CERegistryEdit, found at FreewarePPC. This has an option to unlock all the registry fro remote edittin.

@ s.l.i

The test program worked for me... font issue fixed. I didn't have to change the system font. Good work. ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] evilc:
I really like the app, a today screen version would rock!

If / when you do it, please allow the user to pick what each gesture does:

Ideally, I would like to run this as an ultimatelaunch page, and use gesture up/down to switch months as gesture left/right switches between UL tabs for me. I could deal without having a prev/next year by gesture.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] syrguy1969:
I second this....I have a Shell tab empty and waiting for an app just like this!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] evilc:
Great minds think alike eh? :P

You may want to put a +1 here if you also want a contacts app like this ;)

Hello,

thank you for your hard work !

Appointments are showing off.

Details of appointment are not showing (notes).

Thank you,

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] syrguy1969:
What did you say about great minds? I read this thread yesterday, and just posted my results!!! How 'bout that??? LOL
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] justauser:
Thanks a few suggestions

Very nice work and thank you for this app. A few ideas:

- It would be nice to have something like the built in agenda view. You'd have the days across the top and the details for the selected day below that. Dragging the day row left/right goes to the next/previous week.

- I'd like to be able to tap the month and select a different month. Much easier if I need to check my schedule for August.

- Perhaps tapping on the top left, where you have the signal strength, could launch an app of the user's choosing or even just the phone.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Sean D.:
Adding a contact option?

Not sure if this has been suggested, but would it be possible to add a contact option to an appointment?

Meaning if you set up an appointment with a person who is in your contacts list, the calendar will give you the option to use that persons contact picture (if they have one assigned) to represent the appointment you have set with them.

If a today plug-in were added you would see that persons (thumbnail) picture with the time of the appointment. And not sure if this is do-able, but if you press the photo it would allow you to (or give you the option to) dial, text or e-mail message them. Basically allow you to communicate with them based on what fields you have filled out on their contact page.

Is that asking for too much? :D

Oh, and great work so far. This is 90% of what I have been looking for in a calendar!

How I can put this app on my today screen?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Sushikidd:
hi,

any info on speeding the slide up already?

personally i prefer (button)taps over slides for the change day/month/year/view functions..

and a default day view option/choice..

thanks for the good job so far! :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] slimshadee:
OK, so far, it looks like I am the only one that still has the font issue even with the test version s.l.i posted.

To be more specific, I have cooked my own 6.1 ROM with the Segoe UI font as the system font of choice. The registry edits made in the package I use to cook the ROm includes the following:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\SYSFNT]

"Nm"="Segoe UI"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\V1\FontAlias]

"Arial:-14"="Segoe UI:-12"

"MS Sans Serif:-13"="Segoe UI:-9"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GWE\Menu\BarFnt]

"Nm"="Segoe UI"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GWE\Menu\PopFnt]

"Nm"="Segoe UI"

Does this help you at all, s.l.i.?

Can the others who have experienced the font issue, but got it resolved with the test version s.l.i posted tell me what ROM version you are running? (WM 5.0, 6.0 or 6.1) It might help in the troubleshooting.

Funny thing is, I have no issue at all when running 0.4 of Thumbcal.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] WildSioux:
I have been using this great app ever since it came out. And this is the first bug I have noticed with this new 0.4.7 version. When I go to add either a Task and/or an Appointmoint, then click on the "Start Date" "End Date" option it brings up the calendar to choose the corresponding date(s). However, that specific calendar is blank with a white background. I can choose the date(s) fine. But there are no fonts...

Any idea? I recently changed a few things in the *.ini file to match my theme. Did that screw it up? Thanks

EDIT: Sorry, no bug. I found that my text color changed to white caused this.

How come this screen doesn't show the background?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] eyecrispy:
Fantastic app! I'm really enjoying it.

A few suggestions (but nothing huge):

1. For all day appointments, you have all day as one word (allday). Should be two words.

2. You have everyday as two words. Should be one word.

3. Animation could be faster - especially moving from month to month or year to year and moving from day view back to month view. It seems very sluggish right now that when I gesture, I'm not sure if it's doing anything.

4. In day view, perhaps add feature to allow us to move from day to day?? So, if I'm looking at today's appointments, allow me to move to see tomorrow's, etc.

Thanks so much for your efforts. It's awesome!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] justauser:
Item detail?

When I get to the day screen, I can see all of the items for the day, but I can't get the details screen for an item. How about launching the item details viewing of POutlook?

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mozillaxom:
ThumbCal 0.5 works great, especially with adding menu button,

But, is there way to change menu button colour?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Mindo:
0.5 Is almost perfect!

Hi s.l.i.

Thanks for continuing to update this great little app. It's almost perfect now and the changes you've made to the day view make it much more useful and a much cleaner look.

I have found one little "bug' (not really a bug, but an annoyance.) When editing tasks there is only the option to edit the due date, not the start date. Since Thumbcal apparently displays tasks based on the start date instead of the due date, it's impossible to reschedule tasks to appear in Thumbcal at a later date without still having to leave the program. Would it be possible to fix this in some way? Like maybe allowing the option to edit the start date on tasks? I would love to make Thumbcal my only calendar/tasks program. :)

Thanks again!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] M.A.S.:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
On my 400MHz processor it is relatively smooth with a value of 20.

Do you have many appointments/tasks? What's your processor frequency?

At the moment the app makes use only of pure Win GDI. Not GAPI, PocketHal or so. I will see if it is possible to use some better graphics framework than GDI when my time allows this.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
You can change the menu button color in the skin.ini. Look for this:

[styles.menubar]
colorButtonBg=#000000
colorButtonGradient=#333333
colorButtonText=#eeeeee
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
The tasks displaying/managing is a thing I already thought about to make it better. My thoughts about it:

- display only tasks that are incomplete?

- display a task on every day that lies between task startdate and task due date?

- your opinions...?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] syrguy1969:
First post in this thread, but I have been following it for a bit. One question....any thought to a Today plug-in capability? I have a tab in SPB Shell empty and hungry for just this app!!!! :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] cavalloz:
there were some mistakes, i fixed them
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] eMpTy3000:
I found a bug, on my Samsung i730 anyway. I went into settings and enabled show taskbar (or whatever the name was) and now my menu button disappeared. I have closed the program and opened it back up and have the same thing.

Also I would love it if you would allow for D-pad navigation along with the finger swiping. You could add that option in the settings if you don't want that to be the default.

Thanks for your hard work!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
Hmm, I already played around with my calendar as a today plugin.

For first it is only the slidable month calendar view. The question is, what exactly should be possible with such a plugin? All the functionality of ThumbCal or only the month view? And by clicking it ThumbCal should become active?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] syrguy1969:
I think I see what you mean, the plug-in on some apps are a smaller version of the full app! Maybe something like a choice of showing the current/next week, (kind of like on the SPB Shell NOW page) or maybe a few days in list format, and then when you click on a date, or week an option pops up to run the full app, or just open that appointment.

Is that what you meant?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
Yepp, very similiar to it.

I will look for some free time to make it real. (My girlfriend missed out a bit since I started developing ThumbCal :rolleyes:)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Mindo:
I think that both of those are great ideas! I'm pretty addicted to my tasks lists and your program has filled a huge void in organizer software. Most calendar programs tend to ignore tasks entirely or severely cripple your ability to view or edit them. Thanks again for your hard work.

As for only displaying tasks that are incomplete, I personally would use this option. As a middle ground, though, have you thought about using a little bubble sort or something to bump completed tasks to the bottom of the screen? You could use this same function to allow other customizations, too, such as allowing users options as far as how to sort the items on-screen. Just a thought.

I also think your idea of being able to show tasks across multiple days is great.

Thanks again!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] syrguy1969:
Sounds good to me!!!! Should be well worth the wait, thanks a lot for responding!!!

(but....yeah....take care of things first LOL!!! Gotta have our developers happy!!!!!)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mozillaxom:

so, has anyone found how to actually map htc actionscreen to thumbcal's new task and new appointment? i can of course get the application to launch, but the parameters i put in dont launch the new appt or task, just ThumbCal. i searched in the forum, but couldn't find anything. thanks ahead of time.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] pjdick:
I really like this app. As has been mentioned in numerous posts, it would be really great if:

1) It could function as a today plugin (for Ultimate Launch, etc.)

2) You could change the views easily between Day, Week, and Month. I would suggest the up and down finger swipe.

I know that the up and down finger swipe is currently for changing Years, but how often do you need to go forward or backwards in YEARS ?!?!?

If those things were developed, I would definately make it my default calendar and donate to the cause...

Great work so far. Maybe add a thumbnail view of the current month as a today screen plugin if possible.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sbp:
Hi, just tried it - and really like it.

Some suggestions:

1. I the nordic countries we afte use week-numbers - so it would be handy if you could include this into your program.

2. Would it be possible to make a shorth press on a date to show the appointments on this day. AND a long press let the pop-up appear

- in this way you can easily can see your appointment on any given day by just one short press.

3. To follow up on suggestion 2. Could it be possible to add a new appointment on the page showning all the appointments on the given day?

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tft:
not for nothing but a lot of people like having just the file to execute for portablity rather than dealing with cab installs.. it makes upgrading easier, copy&paste.

it's my only pet peeve when creating applications is to give some options on install methods,. cabs are for noobs and people that don't know how to tie their shoe., not programmers, imo.

at least when the app is stable and development slows down the a cab is ok. "very early alpha" shouldn't be in cab form, thats my 2 cents.
