but i want the patch on the ipt 1.5.4 exe version, since my .dll is from the 1.5.4

also can someone post a tutorial or settings to get a dedicated page to current weather and weather forcast from iptw
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] schmenge:
All the settings are in the ini file:

http://code.google.com/p/iptweather/wiki/Configuration

In the ini you set the page number and starting icon position
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] claus1953:
I did not see if somebody already answered this, but yes you can. Just create an icon to open Resco Explorer and in the parameter you set the path to the folder you want to open. Clicking on the icon will open Resco Explorer in the folder selected.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Use iPhoneTodayDesktop.exe which is installed with the version 1.5.4.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
You can also run 'IPTWeather Config' from the Start Menu to edit IPTWeather settings in a friendly way ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] :
Hi all,

with 1.5.4 come two .exe: iPhoneToday and iPhoneTodayDesktop, both of same size. Can you explain me what the difference is between them?

TIA
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Just try to run both and you'll understand ;).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] :
1)

I wouldn't have asked the question, if I've could detect a difference by myself. FYI, my device is a pna running CE5 Core.

2)

I added to my skin a screen "PowerOptions" containing the icons as demonstrated here. On my device I am running TroNikos's "Powerbutton.exe" which detects the powerbutton was pressed and in turn allows me to perform a specific action, what in my case should be the "PowerOptions" screen is displayed. Any chance to steer this with MortScript, i.e. forcing running iPhoneToday to switch the screen without a reload?

BTW: Tried

#Show skin's PowerOptions screen
Run(SkinFolder\"iPhoneToday\iPhoneToday.exe", "--goto:PowerOptions")

but this completely reloads iPhoneToday
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
1) Ok, then please read this to see the difference. To have more info on the desktop, you can also just look for the work desktop in this thread.

2) PowerOptions has nothing to do with iPhoneToday. Not even sure if your Powerbutton.exe does. So I don't understand your point. Just run PowerOptions to run this app.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] :
michoob,

1) thanks for the link: now I understood it.

2) I'll again try it by myself, because basically nothing is impossible: FYI: PowerButton.exe is an external app, that comes with MioPocket which since Rel.60 uses iPhoneToday as default skin.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
As you're saying, PowerButton.exe is an external app.

It does not use iPhoneToday at all.

The skin you're talking about is just that both PowerButton.exe and iPhoneToday use the iReflect icons as defaults, but that's all.

If you want to call PowerButton.exe within iPhoneToday, just create an icon in iPhoneToday to call PowerButton.exe.

I really don't get your point.

Maybe you would like not to call PowerButton.exe from iPhoneToday but some commands of PowerButton.exe to have specific icons in iPhoneToday.

But then, the point is to get the command line parameters for PowerButton.exe and to call PowerButton.exe from iPhoneToday (Exec field) with the right parameter (Param field).

Again, this has nothing to do with iPhoneToday. You should better ask on the PowerButton thread what are the command line parameters to call it, if any.

Really liking this app (Today plug-in). I used to use Vito Winterface on an old Vogue, but it wouldn't work well without the "D" pad on my TP2 (Rhodium). Now iPhoneToday is working like I wished Winterface would have!

I tried a search, but didn't find an answer...

Is there a way to get a bubble for Verizon Visual Voice Mail? I created an icon for the application and specified type as "Unplayed Voice Mails", but I get no indication of received messages. I assume this function wasn't intended for Visual Voice Mail. I'm currently using "Missed Call" just to have some type of notification. Any suggestions?

Going to a specific tab in a programm

Hi everybody,

I m using IPT on a HTC mini. Works perfectly :) Realy nice and professional.

I want to ad an icon to set the alarm but I only found the programm "clock.exe" in WM6.5. The alarm is in this program but in a specific tab.

So, what parameter have I to set in the icon's configuration to go to the tab"alarm" ?

To link to call history (files attached):

1. Download the LaunchMSItem.zip

2. UnZip the LaunchMSItem.zip and copy the LaunchMSItem.exe to your phone; (I reccomend your storage card)

3. Edit your "phone" or "call" icon and set the type to "Missed calls"

4. Set the ExecuteAlt to LaunchMSItem.exe's location

5. Set the ParamsAlt to CALLHISTORY_ALL_CALLS

This will, when you have a missed call, goto call history :)

Bottombar - switch forward/backward

I´d like to create a bottombar with three rectangular icons (back to desktop, forward and backward), but my unterstanding is that iPT supports quadratic icons only.

If I draw a 96x48px forward-button on bottombar and make two transparent icons 48x48px with same action on it, how can I switch forward to the next screen?

Is there an option to control screenpage without sliding or circles?

Any suggestions are welcome.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Just read the first post:

Just add these commands in the Execute field of your icon.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
See my post above for the controls.

To disable sliding: just set a "Movement threshold" bigger than your screen size in iPhoneToday settings, in the Movement tab.

To disable circles: just set 0 for the Diameter of Circles in the "Header/Circles" tab of iPhoneToday settings.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marc2040:
Great michoob!

That´s what I need.

Thank you :)

marc2040
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
I also wanted to add (but my computer crashed), that you can use png icons with transparent background to have 96x96 px icons but with an visible picture of size 96x48px like you wish, without the need of creating a line with blank icons. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marc2040:
Superb idea.

You are right, a transparent part of an icon doesnt disturb.

So i will try your solution and report about it.

Is it possible to use iP2D to replace Start menu ?

Also, can it be used to open start menu folders ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] :
Smartphone resolutions are

240x320, 240x400, 480x640 and 480x800

and gps/pna resolutions are

320x240, 480X234, 480x272 and 800x480

My question: Does iPhoneToday detect 480X234 resolution and recalculate the whole skin (settings.xml) accordingly ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
Yes, just create a new icon and write in "Execute" field "--winkey" without the quotes. You can also add a shortcut of IPT in the startup folder if you want it to open right away.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
I think it's easier to install IPT and see the result than to type the question :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] miko99x:
works perfect on my htc touch hd, thanks man
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Sorry, but if I am not wrong, an icon with "Execute" field "--winkey" will open the Start Menu, whereas Ummagumma would like to replace the Start Menu by iPhoneToday.

The answer is no, iPhoneToday cannot replace the Start Menu.

I don't even think it is possible at all to replace the Start Menu by any app...

Can't do a "try and error", because currently have no such device at the hand. That's why I asked the question here. Sorry for having stolen your time.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
@Michoob

There were 2 questions, I answered to one and you did the 2nd :p

@jwoegerbauer

Don't worry, if we are here, means we have a lot of free time to spend ;)

Anyway I didn't know you don't have a device and my remark was in good humor.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] claus1953:
Technically iPT could replace the start menu, but in my opinion it is not very handy:

1. You can disable the start menu by replacing all its cpr files by empty ones with exactly the same name, so the start menu will not load anymore (and you will save about 20 MB of RAM).

2. You can link the WinStartKey to iPT using uTask or Ameba, so that when you tap on the softkey this program will be called.

As i said it is not very handy as iPT should run in background to be called immediately and not have to wait until it loads.

Anyway you can use this same procedure to launch any other start menu replacement program.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marc2040:
@ michoob,

I got to thank your for your advice.

Partially filled Icons and proportionate transparent are a very good solution to control rectangular buttons.

Helpful members on xda :)

Cheers
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Ummagumma:
When in background, IPT uses up less than 1 mb of RAM, so it's a good trade-off vs Start Menu.

The problem, though, is that it's impossible (or I don't know how to) to set a link to folders, therefore I still need some Start Menu replacement to be able to open all programs. Technically, I can set up links to open Start Menu folders in File Explorer, and put most often used programs in IPT; I would do that, but for now I found a decent Start Menu replacement (WinStart) that seems to be working fine; I am still trying to decide between WS and IPT. WS works with "native" Start Menu shortcuts so I don't have to worry about setting up a whole different bunch of shortcuts; OTOH it's just a bit unstable, and doesn't have all the bells & whistles of IPT. If it was only possible to have sub-folders in IPT, it would be golden !!!

By the way, I used to run IPT inside Pocket Breeze tab when I had my Axim, and I still think it's the best ever productivity combo. I just happen to really like Sense, even with all of its shortcomings...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
Hi

I don't understand what you mean by this (the sentences in bold), is it a graphics issue i.e. the folders open in explorer style and not IPT style? If it's technical, you provided the right answer...

Another point about the discussion above to replace the start menu: you should go to the basics and start by the very name of the app- iPhoneToday- meaning to emulate an iPhone, is there a start menu in iPhone? there's no need for it either since all the links you need are on your screen. In IPT you create all the links on your screen and away with Start Menu :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] claus1953:
This is only partially true Tito. Ok you have all most used programs on your screen, but sometimes you need to have access to the ones you do not have on your screen. For example settings can be 30+ shortcuts, but you use some 12 regularly, so you put them on one screen in iPT. Same with games, i have 50+ games but i use a dozen more often, so i only put them on my screen. For the rest i have several folder shortcuts on one screen, one for games one for settings, one for applications etc, and they open in Resco Explorer, as it is not very handy to have 10 pages or so in iPT.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marc2040:
Text

I need your support!

I got 20 pages with 2 huge Buttons.

1 for text und 1 for screenshot.

But if i want to edit the text I have to create a new PNG.

Is there a chance to write different text messages trough icon.xml or setting.xml into different pages?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
Can you please post a screenshot?

Hi Claus, I agree completely, even iPhone needs Categories in order to avoid too much clutter...I just don't see how this can be improved, beside the graphical aspect, f.i. the possibility to launch folders with another instance of IPT so there would be uniformity. I think it can be achieved now with Second Today.

As for Settings folder, I solved it with this tiny script that opens it exactly the same way it opens in Start Menu with one provision though: first you have to move the Settings icon in Start menu to the top (i.e. to be the 1st icon).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Ummagumma:
The way to solve it would be by allowing folders inside IPT. Like in MortButtons, where I can set a link to Start Menu and it would open Start Menu as folders and shortcuts inside Mort Buttons window. This beats opening them in Resco - I still only run 1 program not 2. It's not the question of uniformity as much as speed and use of system resources. Also, even in the large icons mode Resco isn't as finger friendly - just try to use it in a moving car.

Anyway, I didn't realize that WinStart is time-limited beta, so now I have to decide between MortButtons and IPT as Start Menu replacement. I am very strongly leaning towards IPT, even with no folders support. Mort isn't as smooth and most importantly it has a slight lag on my device.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marc2040:

Screenshot as requested.

We want to abuse IPT as an onboard manual.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
Hi Marc

I'm sorry but the screenshot doesn't look to me like an IPT screen :confused:

Before Ipt I used MortButtons too, and I even combined it with Ipt for opening folders but as you know it consumes some memory. I never used Resco so I can't tell and I wish WinStart could be used as an exe so we could link it to an icon without it loaded in memory. I use Ameba to hook Ipt to Start Menu button, and long press launching the original Start menu.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marc2040:
@ tito12

Thats´s right, it doesnt look like but it is :-)

As you can see on icons.xml its build with IPT:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
Amazing! So what do you need to do ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] claus1953:
Have you tried MMAppLauncher? It is the one i use.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] claus1953:
Both WinStart and MMAppLauncher need to run in the background, otherwise they take loong to load.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marc2040:

@ tito12

Instead of 2 icons I just want to use 1 for mini screenshot.

My question is, how to write different text messages, not icon text, on each screen.

For example, now I got 38 letters by 11 rows in one text icon.

So, I cant find any possibility to write free text (without icon) in icons.xml and settings.xml.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
I'm trying it right now, looks not bad so far, thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
Marc, AFAIK Ipt can't do that.

Tell me if I get it right, when you press forward button you get to next page where you have 2 other icons and so on?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marc2040:
Text

Thats´s right tito12.

The whole Icons.xml got 21 pages, each page 2 icons now.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
If you want one icon instead of 2, what's preventing you to do so in options?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marc2040:
The program wich the IPT manual should be for!

For sure, I could run just one Icon each page, but if I upgrade or modify the mainprogram I have to overwrite the PNG.

IPT for me is not the mainprogram, I´d like to abuse it for users info.

Would be much easier if IPT gives me a free text support.

We are working with CE5 and CE6 PNA´s and most of them just have 128mb RAM an 500 to 600 mhz.

So far my IPT manual takes just 400 kb and thats fine for me.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
I've been using my brain to think of a workaround, but it seems your way is the best Ipt can offer, just make a bigger icon and save templates of the text so i'll be easier to recreate a new icon. I was thinking of having the text on the background image but in order to change it you need a screen refresh, not very convenient :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marc2040:
Not the answer I was looking for, but now I´m sure being on the right way and as you say and I think one icon with all informations (text and mini screenshot) is a good solution.

A secondary effect will be saving some kb.

Thank you for your fast respond.

marc2040
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
For the subfolder question, you guys know you can run several instances of iPhoneToday.exe using different configuration files, don't you?

You need to hexedit copies of iPhoneToday.exe so the process name and folder are iPhoneToday2, 3, and so on.

Search the thread for more info on the tweak ;).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marc2040:
I was thinking about to do that to save some memory.

But as I saw that memory for 21 pages is below 400kb, I was astonished

and dont need to hexedit.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
I guess the best would be tronikos adds two features:

1. Possibility to have the icon text on the left or on the right of the icon. Maybe by adding a horizontal offset to the icon text as the vertical offset already exists?

2. Possibility to have multiple lines for the icon text.

Also, I think that if 2. is achieved, you don't even need the point 1. as you can then set a text only icon next to a picture only icon...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marc2040:
@ michoob

Great idea.

Plus: Text feature: left aligned, right aligned, center, top, bottom, middle.

I remember of DeClock, a fullscreen Clock.

There you can choose the Win fonts.

Would be nice to have such a feature as well to create free text.

@ Tronikos

A lot of wishes, but can you give us a hand?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bsinclair:
Not sure if Tronikos is still around. Last time he was seen online was on October, 5th, and before that on August, 13th.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Ummagumma:
Thanks for suggestion. MMAppLauncher is very similar to WinStart, actually smoother & more featured (and free). However, right on load it takes up 2,5 MB of RAM, and after a while it's over 5 MB... that's a far cry from HTC Start Menu's 15-20MB, but still quite a lot.

I tried various ways to attach IPT to Start button but none of them worked. It seems Ameba won't work on a WM6.5 device - needs to be 6.5.3 or so. Also, lack of folders means there's no easy way to get to the right shortcut in a few basic steps.

For now, I am going to stick with Quick Menu / WKTask / WKlauncher combo. It takes up the least amount of RAM. I will still try to use IPT, too.

ADDED: FOUND IT ! This program assigns IPT to both the hardware and software menu buttons:
