Hi Omar,

nice, again. :)

I went straight on and translated the settings.txt file into Czech. But whoa, the app omits all the local chars. :confused:

I was editing the file on TP with notepad.

see the attached file.

edit: just updated the file and it is attached to my post on next page of this thread.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Omar68:
You are right, I added a warning...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gutte:
Nice little app - would help if you could make it work om my HTC Touch Dual running Win Mobile 6.0. Is this a resolution problem, not VGA?

I made a translation to Swedish, but the program does not display the special Nordic characters.

Is it possible that you add "Category" as a variable to set under "Details"?

I too look forward to a GekoNewTask that works on my Touch Dual!

I attach the Swedish translation

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Omar68:
Maybe is because I use Tahoma standard font... I check and tell you...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] DD_:
Any chance u will release also QVGA version ?

Thx.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Omar68:
As I wrote to racok, different resolutions are not my priority but I'll can consider it (is not a promise :) ). Code is the same, I must change all graphics element and this required a lot of time for me because I'm not a graphic designer...

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] midastocar:
I really love this app!

For quick appointments etc.. this really is the biz.

I think HTC were asleep on the calendar side of things.....
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Omar68:
You must have settings.txt file in GekoNewCal folder. Program searchs to open setting in this folder, if not found it uses internal default language (italian).
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] dancer_69:
I just now discover this beautiful application and I translated

to greek(attachment below). I didn't use it at all, just test the translation

but I saw that the "new appointment" text its not centered, appears to the right and only the first 5 letter are visible. Is there any way to fix

this from a config file?

EDIT: Just now read that some people having problems with translation local characters. I have similar problem and it solved

when I save the file in UTF-8. Maybe this is helpful.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Omar68:
Thanks a lot dancer_69! You are right, if you save resource file in UTF-8 format it works well!! I inform everybody in the main page.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] NikNak:
Great app.

I have translate into danish.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] DD_:
I already resized graphics which is in external files. It solved troubles with seting up recurring events and alarm. But some graphic is hardcoded in .exe file :((. Is it possible to extract it into separate files as well .. ? I'll resize it and send it back so u can release qvga version.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Giannis86:
EXCELLENT program..this should have come with th diamond/Touch Pro :D

now the fun part..figuring how to incorporate it in action screen 9
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] crocodile010:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] garcia-gonzales:
great but...

exactly what i was searching for.

There's just one more thing missing.

The "category".

To select if it's "private" or "office" or anything else.

I select calendars in outlook and have a choice between private, office or all appointments. so it would be grat to have the possibility to define the category right when i add the new appointment with this little program.

THX.

Keep up the good work
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Omar68:
Next version... :) I'm working on it.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sonnybravo:
tnx 4 wonderful app

Thank you!

Wow, this is amazing! Hope you can put in the integration with the original calendar and task creation!!

One of the best apps around! Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the nice program. Is it possible to add more option for the alarm tab. Some of my appointments/meeting need three days advance notice (meeting held on Monday, I need send reminder to people on Friday:().

thanks

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] winwiz:
this is one of the best apps i have installed on my diamond. Bravo to the programmer ! :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Omar68:
GekoNewCal add appointment on standard calendar application, you have to synchronize it with gmail agenda or oggsync as normal PocketOutlook appointment.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] skwarek:
Great App

Could you please add an option to select all day appoitments

Thanks
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] b2btyr:
Day of the week

Great app! I've just have one little feature request:

Can you show the day of the week of the selected date somewere? It's makes adding an appointment like 'next saturday' allot easier. Thanks! You've done a great job.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Omar68:
I'm just working on it... :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Giannis86:
PERFECT:D

i dont know if this was mentioned before (or if i missed it in the program itself), but there are a few things that i would love to get fixed :D

1

i would like to be able to increase the duration of a task to more than 12 hours..

For example, i wanted to add my vacation to the calendar (which takes 3 days). Geko will only allow me to set 12hours between start and end. So i have to edit the appointment in the normal calendar.

Could we get an option for this?

For example maybe a button which pops up a menu for choosing a different end date.

2

would it be possible to have a version for the touch pro too? when i view the gekocal in landscape mode it doesnt use the screen fully.

3

It would be nice to have the option to disable/enable automatic SIP keyboard. i find that the SIP keyboard is limiting the speed of a new appointment as i have to turn it off to be able to use the details or change the duration & date. (I believe having such an option would greatly decrease the required time on the touch pro)

I hope you consider any of these points. Im loving this application and i would love to see it more developed:D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] tjotji:
is there a qvga version of this app?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] mail@thomasdige.dk:

I have made a few changes to the danish settings.

It is correction of spelling and adding danish letters, where it was needed

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Omar68:
You have to save your file in "UTF-8" format (Notepad, "Save as...", "Codify" code UTF-8...)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Harts@J:
Here some notes after installation:

- How about the date format from the system settings? My system date format is dd.mm.yyyy the app shows dd/mm/yyyy.

- Could the recurrence icons be only pics with descriptive symbol without any text?

- The color is standard green, how about blue, red (like Elvelynn's) etc. versions? Many of us has some colored theme.

In generally a marvelous little app. Thanks!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Omar68:
- Date format is defined internally, it could be define in resource file (next version...)

- Icons and graphic objects are external file (.BMP format in GekoNewCal folder), you can modify them as you prefer.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] koven:
Here is a proper Polish translation:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Harts@J:
Thanks about that date format.

I know that those are graphics, but I'm a bungler to make pics. It would be nicer that somebody with talent could make them.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] genoso:
Spanish translation

Nice application, here you have an spanish translation.

Some comments:

* It takes too long to load, it could be great if load time is decreased

* Could it be possible to launch it from Action Screen 9 Btn Diamond

I answer myself the second one: check how
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sonyuk143:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Omar68:
Hello to everybody.

I am very busy at this time by my main job but I inform you that I'm working on the new version of GekoNewCal, which include:

Attendees

This is very awesome! I second the request for support for attendees. I use that very frequently.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] oo0:
Good news!

But still, is it possible to add New Task functions to your great app?

so we can choose what to create Appointment or Task.

Tasks are important calendar entries too.

There are lots of people here (including myself), having very heavy schedule, and all Appointments and Meetings are clearly predefined weeks and months before they start, and they are not planned spontaneously.

Though tasks are being created/completed every 20 minutes.

Keep up your good work!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] del4:
Looks promising. Didn't see anyone else mention it, but could you add in landscape support for quick use of the hardware keyboard?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] lparee:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sonnybravo:

Great, easy to use program. It would be perfect if it included support for Categories. Is there any chance that a future version will include this?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] IceEyz:
GekoNewCal 2.0.2. works fine on the Touch HD.

Just installed it and it's all looking good, except that the extra 160 pixels are white instead of black, but that's nothing to worry about. The extra space could be used for more useful things though...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] del4:
Been trying this out and it definitely fits the TF3D theme a bit better and is more finger-friendly than the default new appt screen.

However, I have problems with the start time entry because if you try to increase a value, you effectively block the current setting. Seems like it would be better to put the values on top, with the increase/decrease arrows below.

Also, tapping on the Subject or Location fields brings up the SIP as they should. However, when you tap on the Start field (shouldn't this be shifted to the left BTW and all fields lined up evenly???), the SIP doesn't go away and just sits there blocking the entry area...

Looking forward to the next release, which hopefully will come soon???
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] ericsson68:
I like this and it works great for spontaneous appointments if added as the default Add Entry method on the home page.

Couple things missing for me are all days and the ability to add attendees. Even if you can't code the latter in, a way to get through to the standard form with all the items so far filled would be very useful.

Thanks
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] nick007:
I love this app on my Touch HD!

Please add the name of the day in your next versions like MON/TUE/WED/THU/FRI/SAT/SUN. This helps to set the right day :rolleyes:

AND: We need the same for our ToDo´s. Please make "GekoNewToDo" :)

Thanks!

Also request to have the option to have a reminder > 45 minutes for a New Appointment ....
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] TimJuPe:
Hi,

nice tool there! Thanks a lot!

But this one little thing batheres me:

Most of my new appointes are like "on next Tuesday!" Or "sunday one week ahead..." - every time i have to search and/or count to the date... so an option that gives me an arrow for Monday, Tuesday and so on would be marvellous!

I don't know if this was mentioned befored - if it is so, sorry for this post!

Merry Christmas guys! :D

Hi Omar68,

Just wondering, are you still working on updates for your magnificent calender app? I really love it!! Would be too bad if this project would dis-continue :(

This app is a must-install for me, every time I flash a new ROM ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Zjoske:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] varvocel:
Thanks for the great application. It works flawless on my Diamond.

I have two requests too:

first - small (I hope :) ) - daily recurring appointments

and second: tasks.

I'm Pocket Informant user for years and I think if you add some features to your application many users of PI and Agenda Fusion will prefer your app's great touch interface over sophisticated features of other PIM's (or like I plan use PI as second PIM ;) )
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] BustedNuts1:
Great program. I really like it, just one question:

Any way to decrease the appointment intervals from half an hour down to like 10 or 15 min?

Like Im trying to make the appointment for 15 min, is there setting to change?

In order to get the application working in English mode (or other language) you should explore the folder you have installed app to, and rename file "en_settings.txt" to "settings.txt" (replace default file). Close application and restart (same for the other language files).

Cmon Man, this is a direct qote form the first page that you used to download the app:

* Thanks to NikNak for danish translation (da_settings file is in page 8).

* CAB file contains English, Italian, French translations.

* ZIP file contains CZ, DAN, GER, GRE, NL, NOR, RUS, SWE translations.

* In order to get the application working in English mode (or other language) you should explore the folder you have installed app to, and rename file "en_settings.txt" to "settings.txt" (replace default file). Close application and restart (same for the other language files).

* Important: save your "xx_settings.txt" file in UTF-8 format (Notepad "Save as..." and then "Codify option") in order to have right accents.

And that's what's up!

but i think it need a new feature: Show the day name...

When i am adding a new appointment, i can set the date but i see no day name, for example i want an appointment for next monday, but at a first glance i don't know what's the date of next monday...
