j101399j,

one thing about the FAQs, I played with settings and noticed that

Minimum Vertical Space affects the orizontal spacing between icons and

Additional Horzontal Space the vertical...

Tried it with icons per row setted to 0

[edit]

and about gradient, if you uncheck Transparent in background settings and you set 2 colors in the 2 fields you have a color gradient as background ;)

Like this for the bottom bar

Hi Guys,

Did i miss out the cab file to use? for hd2 wvga screen, we should be using wm or ppc? what is the difference among this 2...do pardon me if both topic has been covered as i tried looking the faq...

when i go to landscape mode, i have overlap icon on each other...did i miss out any setting?

attached is the screen shot for the landscape mode...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] savrix85:
You should download the wm version.

As is written on the Google code page, the wm version is for Windows Mobile 5/6 and the ppc version is for Pocket PC 2003.

--> Does not properly render PNG icons when adding them through the Icon Settings dialog.

--> Does not save changes to the icon.xml file after making changes using the Icon Settings dialog.

--> Proabably many more issues when trying to run on this device, but difficult to test without being able to save the XML files through the dialogs.

Well done on an excellent updated, I use a Touch HD on Windows Mobile 6.5 and notice the screen goes white after I get an alert instead of displaying it, very odd may be a 6.5 thing but reverting to the old version it works ok?

Anyway keep up the good work
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] j101399j:
Yep just figured those out along with a lot of the other functions. Thank you verifing that for me. I'll update the FAQ's a little later. Just had a few mins to check.

To use those commands, you do not need mortscript. Just type the --code what ever it is in the executable line when creating an icon. That's it. You only use Mortscript if you create somthing that changes an icon or somthing. If you want to learn mortscript, start here:

I had the same problem, but found out that for any reason the complete bottom section of icons.xml was gone away, after putting on my PC. Reason, I don't know. But from that time on I made, several (saved two times, control it) things to ensure icons.xml is always there in good condition.

After having this little problems iPhone Today is working like hell on an old Becker GPS. Very, Very good Mr. Tronikos!!!

Only, little design error is the vertical pages icons are behind the bottom icons (Osprey mentioned). Well, inbetween I don't see it as a problem, because then you see that there's a second page

But

Text of icons is exactly on the same row and then not readable.

Is there anything to improve?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ukintel:
I understand that but i cant figure out how to map soft keys or Hard Keys to these commands when using the dll version. Nevermind.. i will just have to use the Bottom Bar for the "Page jump commands".

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tronikos:
Oops. I fixed it.

Try setting icons per row to 0 and decreasing the value of the horizontal space. Your screen seems to be able to fit more than 4 icons per row. Try also decreasing the icon width.

MSXML component is missing from your device. Install MioPocket that has it.

It also seems that your device doesn't have the Imaging API with PNG support so convert the icons to BMP...

I just included iPhoneTodayCmdLine.exe that can pass command line arguements to the today plugin.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] edan1979:
many new option to test... just intall it and currently testing...

btw... can you implement drag and drop to move the icon...

the . . . and the bottom icon seem to be too close... can we increase the space?

ok just play with the movement tab...

Movement Threshold : 10

Movement Factor : 5

Max Velocity : 100

got smooth movement nearly to 1.0d version...

Battery issue

Hi!

Has anyone else noticed any issues with the battery charge remaining on v1.5.0 ?

On my Trinity (Orange SPV M700) I have a battery icon setup, and while running on the battery it is fine, but when charging it displays either the negative value of the current charge (i.e. -60) or sometimes (-255), where as the last version I used 1.4.8 displayed AC when charging. Any ideas?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] garethtimm:
one of the things i read in the changelog was that the battery % would be displayed while charging. so i think that is the reason for the -ve. to indicate charging and still show the %..
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Sir.John:
Yes: works as designed ;-)

please have a look at the release notes in post #1. Afterwards you might want to revert the default setting back to A/C in the options dialogue
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] namwollem:
OOooppps!

Indeed it does! Unbelievably I DID read the notes, then after everyones' comments I read them again three more times before I finally noticed the change note! It must be a sign of impending old-age! (But I'm a big enough man to admit my mistakes - so I am sorry for wasting everyone's time - and I'll be sure to read things FOUR times now before querying!!!!!) :-)

Although it doesn't explain the -255 figure though!! Hmmmmmm!

tronikos,

I (PND) have a little Problem with vertikal flipping pages. While horizontal works excellent (only slight touching), in vertical it seems that page want like to go horizontal and in addition, it often happens that an app opens, even there is space between buttons and I try to not touch a button.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] drflax:
sorry for the low response,please why not possible to do,if you can yo can create an icon with appointments or album art from mortscript player.i think tat's a wonderful idea to do please reconsider the possibility of implement the option or explainme how to and i make

Ad 1. Thank you for your quick reply! I hadn't tried that yet.

Ad 2. Ah, well it would be absolutely great for me: I'd like an easier way of accessing all programs than the native one. But of course I can understand if it is not practicable.

Ad 3. Hmm when I asked I had something in mind, but I am a bit tired and drunk now. I'd like one plugin to be for all programs, on a separate tab, and another two-column one with my most-used programs on my today screen. Or something.

I am still looking for the most efficient way to access all programs + settings from a button or tab; SPB Mobile Shell does a decent job, but the fact that it 1.) cannot but display 9 icons at a time and 2.) is a memory hog turn me off.

Go to Hell!*

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Cerberus_tm:
Ah, interesting! Well, I must say I wouldn't care about bad-looking icons if only this were possible. It would be awesome in any case! But if it is a lot of work I can understand.

It is great that you frequently answer questions and communicate on this thread. Much appreciated!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Come on guys, it is a peace of cake to make that feature with just a simple MortScript. Done in 2 minutes (but without testing...), the code would be looking like this:

index=0
ForEach file in files ("\Windows\Start Menu\*.*")
RegWriteDWord("HKLM", "\Software\iPhonetoday\icon" & index, "nScreen", 0)
RegWriteDWord("HKLM", "\Software\iPhonetoday\icon" & index, "nIcon", index)
RegWriteString("HKLM", "\Software\iPhonetoday\icon" & index, "strName", file)
index = index + 1
EndForEach
RegWriteDWord("HKLM", "\Software\iPhonetoday", "reloadIcon", 2)

EDIT: ok, I've tested a little bit this MortScript script and you'll have yet to change the line for the icon name, because 'file ' contains the full path of the file and not only the name... And moreover, this MortScript script will not update the execution parameters for the icons... I guess after the loop, their should be another loop to update the icons.xml file for each icon of the Start Menu... so not that fast to do, but still not very difficult, to my mind... the best to do such things would be hat Tronikos adds the possibility to change all the possible icon paramaters in the values of the icon0...n registry keys for the reloadIcon feature... ;)

@tronikos: would you mind making all the icon parameters updatable through the reloadIcon feature? Thus, you'll easily get rid off the requests about adding the auto-configuration feature... And thanks to that, users will be able to easily load their icons thanks to MortScript scripts, and even creating automatically a Games page, Utilities page, etc. ;)

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Sir.John:
I'm getting old...

I seem to remember, that it was possible to move the position of the bubbles in relation to the according icon (calendar icon is blocking the view of Weekday)

It's just: I seem not to find the correct value to play around with.

Any pointers please?

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] THUDUK:
Go into the iphone today options,

TAB - Special images

pull down to week date and adjust the offsets in there

I have changed the .png file so the small balloon is slightly over and smaller and its now black see my last post before this
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] THUDUK:
Is there a way to setup that the bottom bar disappears when you rotate the screen to landscape ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Sir.John:
Thanks for your pointers, but for me the offset seems to move around the text not the bubble. Guess either it was some other setting or rather there was no option to nudge the bubble at all :confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tronikos:
Yes it should.

OK I'll do.

There is currently no such option but I am planning to make the bubbles configurable.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Livven:
Perhaps you could just add them to the icon.xml as usual and then let the user set another icon, if needed. This would be a great feature, but even without it I'm liking iPhoneToday very much... with adjusted movement settings (0, 4, 0, 80) the page flicking is much better for me, and the pressed icon overlays are simply great.

Also, would it be possible to just make the icons alpha blend with the background without disabling ClearType for the text? The icons look so much better, but the slower scrolling and jaggy text make this option quite unusable. I wouldn't even mind a bit igher memory consumption to get this working :).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] schlork:
I was playing arround, with another style of bottombar. Just as a first trial, because currently, I can't create such icons, having no photoshop.

If you see the picture, the icons on the left side of phone button are looking not that bad, there is only a small slit left, which should be not there. But on the right side icons are displayed complete incorrect. How they should look you can see on the last row of mainscreen.

Nothing I can do about it. ClearType is not supported on DIBSections that I use for alpha blending.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] schlork:
@tronikos

don't know, if you will respond, but still try!:confused: Flippig pages and unregular starting apps is still a problem. May an option to must double click an app to open will help!?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Osprey00:
tronikos,

This is a minor request. Would you consider adding the option of setting AlreadyConfigured to "2" to auto-configure without prompting the user? That would be useful for MioPocket because I'm afraid that some people are going to choose "No" from the prompt, resulting in settings that just don't look quite right, especially on larger screens (like 800x480). In fact, with settings.xml being initially empty now, the prompt is really no longer necessary (because, with an empty settings.xml, the auto-configuring needs to be done to come up values for the file), right? In that case, maybe AlreadyConfigured being "0" (or non-existent, of course) should auto-configure without prompt. Either way would be fine. Thanks a lot.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Cerberus_tm:
Hmm can't you just set the vertical size to a limit, such that the bottom bar is not visible? Or simply move all icons from it to the main screen?

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] LEX@N:
Tronikos,

On the image below I want you to notice the bottombar. The reflection from those icons only show up if I turn off alpha blend on black background. I can turn the value to 0 and it shows some, but it is very faint, hardly noticeable. If I turn it to the normal value that makes my icons look perfect then you only see the icon and not the reflection on the bottombar ones.Also I am not using any background again, and the gradient is black/darkblue for mainscreen, and black for bottombar. Just wanted to report this testing I did with these type of icons on the PND. Also you can't see the page bubbles cause I set them to -100.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tronikos:
schlork,

Adding an option to double click an icon should be easy so I might do it.

Osprey00,

Not exactly. If settings are non existent their default values are used. Auto configure (if AlreadyConfigured is 0) changes only the icon width, text size and top offset.

Anyway I am planning to remove the AlreadyConfigured setting. What I am thinking to add is something like the following:

<LastConfiguredAt width="480" height="272"/>

so that whenever a settings.xml is used on another resolution, the current icon and text size will scale accordingly.

LEX@N,

PNG images have an alpha channel of transparency with values from 0 (fully transparent) to 255 (fully opaque) for each pixel. When alphablend on background is enabled this alpha channel is used to nicely blend the image to the background. When it is disabled there are no semi-transparent pixels, only either fully transparent or fully opaque. Pixels with an alpha value less than the alpha threshold are converted to fully transparent and pixels with an alpha value higher than the alpha threshold are converted to fully opaque.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 12gage:
is there a way to change the icon count when in landscape?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Osprey00:
tronikos,

That sounds good, but if you still prompt the user when their screen dimensions are different, a parameter for the tag like silent="1" or noprompt="1" would still be needed for what I mentioned, as well as appreciated. Thanks. Also, you've likely already realized this, but you probably would want to make the resolution check not flag an auto-configure if iPT is being launched in a different orientation than originally set (i.e. if dimensions are 272x480 in your example).

Feature Request

Would it be possible to have a feature where the 'Memory Load" number and/or bubble only appear at a level that the user specifies?

EG, I set the memory load threshold to 60% and the bubble/value only appears when it gets to that level. That way, I could use ExecuteAlt to run eg CleanRam when it appears....but not devote a whole icon to CleanRam.

Suggestions for future releases

Hi,

I'm evaluating the possibilities of iPT and I must confess that I'm quite impressed with all the offered options :eek:

I'd say that iPT is way more configurable than the original but who doubt that ? :D

As usual, the more options we have, the more we want ;) so here's my suggestion :

- As we can disable the popup menus for longpresses, why not add the possibility for a longpress command on icons ? If you see the need, you would add longpress also for "Alt" commands but I fail to provide a real world example right now eventhough I see lots of ideas for longpress commands (phone+contacts, task_manager+task_switcher, etc...)

Thanks for any feedback and I promise I'll find more ideas!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] LEX@N:
Tronikos,

thx for explaining how the blend is working on the transparent reflection. I can set a higher threshold in the photo editor so Alpha blend on black set to 0 doesn't make it to faint. The ones below are with Alpha blend set to 0 and on. They are not to solid where they look like part of the image, but not to faint where they are not noticeable. The icons below and those others I have linked back in this thread were made by Leopard, I just altered the alpha but not the images, and just using to test.

iPT works so nice. Only one thing makes me sad.

Why are the icons flickering when cycling through pages? The weird aspect is that this flickering is only when moving from left to right or right to left. Moving from top to bottom and otherwise causes no flickering. What are the best settings on a diamond. I'm using the *.exe without alpha blending. ???
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Livven:
Flickering? Try to change the movement settings, I'm using 10 (threshold), 4 (factor), 0 (min), 80 (max), with these swiping through the pages is a lot smoother for me.

What I find a bit annoying is that there's always a line at the bottom of every today plugin, you can make it invisible with a registry edit but it's still there, thus it does not look good when I set another wallpaper on iPhoneToday. Would be great if you could make it automatically disable that line and also the whole toolbar (with the today plugin), like ThrottleLauncher or WAD.

BTW I wrote about it on a German Windows Mobile site :).
