Try out the example/demo exe in the release package, if that runs then you are in business!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] eboelzner:
I am here... just been very busy this summer with development projects. I plan to release a new version of the SDK soon as I have been using it in my projects and have fixed numerous things... and added some new features.

Sorry for the delay in releases... look for an update soon!

Regards,

Ed
[Windows Mobile Software Development] meltwater:
Glad to see you are back, and sounds like bearing gifts! :D

Greenhacks has been doing some wonderful work with custom sense items, the next generation of apps from this are going to be rather impressive.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mike3000c:
welcome back.

Are the new features would be like greenhack some custom panel control?

await it!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
Hey Ed, good to see you back.

I really hope in next release:

1. OutOfMemoryException to be fixed.

2. Allow changing background color of SenseListControl, that will allow others to use new color styles on all controls.

3. If possible give an example on how to use normal form controls inside basepanel. For e.g if i want to extend existing textbox control with more features, i would just use regular textbox control, and on top of it, i can extend it. Writing textbox control from scratch is lot of work.

4. Example on how to stop from within the control of Showing Child on right scroll on control. Right now workaround is to use OnBeforeShowChildren and cancel the request there. I would like to handle that from inside the control.

5. Also i hope you take a look on controls which i have been extending. Want to make sure you put more time in better things and not small things :)

As we did not hear from you for quite long time, i started extending lot of controls.

In next few days i am going to release:

1. SensePanelPictureBox (is already ready, and is under testing, and code is posted on CodePlex)

2. SensePanelHistogram (is already ready, and is under testing)

3. InputPanel (is already ready, and code is posted on CodePlex)

4. SensePanelOnOffItem (is ready) which allows to use any text instead of On/Off

5. SensePanelSelectControl (under development, similar like HTC alarm has for weekdays)

6. Extended MessageBox which allows Checkbox/ComboItem (waiting for other controls to finish)

7. SensePanelDividerItemEx (with more styles)

8. Few more styles to already released controls.

This controls are already released:

1. SenseHeaderControlEx (multiple styles)

2. SensePanelItemEx (multiple styles)

3. SensePanelLinkLabel

4. SensePanelNumericItemEx (multiple styles, with 3 digit support)

5. SenseButtonControlEx (allows images for entire button as of basic release)

Again, good to see you back.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Nixeus:
Thanks à lot Greenhack for your help :)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
No problem.

Make sure that which ever form parent form opens, needs to be disposed at the end.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] kliptik:
Glad to see you're back!

Looking forward to more awesome work!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] cyberde:
Isn't that something the .net garbage collector takes care of? Correct me if I'm wrong though :)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Nixeus:
+9^99999 For me ! Your sdk is fantastic, we hope all new releases :) :)

[Windows Mobile Software Development] serfer222:
It's great.

Can you please post the list of fixed things, then we can remind if something important is not fixed =)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Nixeus:
Please, anynone know how changing the heigh of the font on a SenseHeaderControl ?

Thanks a lot :)

regards,

Nixeus
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
Yes, use the control which i wrote :)

SenseHeaderControlEx with all HTC styles.

See link in my signature. and also see the screenshot in that post. It will allow you to do what you want.

Let me know if that helps.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Nixeus:
Thanks a lot greenhack ! I will try ! You should work with Elbonzer !!

An other question, it's possible to having these 2 controls here :

Thanks a lot,

Regards,

Nixeus
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
Well one is divider item which i am working on to extend it.

another is seperator between each control (dotted line), it is already there with all the controls.

just use property called ShowSeperator in any control.

By the way what extra option you are looking for in divider item?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] AgentBignose:
This SDK must be totaly awesome!!

MUST BE because I didnt manage to add the controlls to my Toolbox.

I tried on 2 different Systems even with resetting of VS but nothing worked.

If I rightclick Toolbox and check "show all" the sense sdk controlls are visible but enabled link the others.

I know this is a visual studio prob. i had it with manila sdk, too.

But nevertheless: Does anybody know what to do?

Thx, great work!!! If it works the will be a donation from me.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
Lots of people tried in different ways, but nothing worked out.

Everyone got used to manual coding which is a better option.

I am not sure if anyone wants to waste time on this to figure out the issue. Lots of examples are already available on how to use the controls.

I would say, if you planning to use this SDK, take an example and use it and build on top of it or in new project, trying to figure out how to get this control in toolbox, then you will end up with nothing and a total time waste.

hope that helps.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] AgentBignose:
As far as I understood it worked on some peoples systems, am I wrong?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] cyberde:
Hi, I ran into a small problem with the SDK.

I've created a SensePanelTextboxItem with PasswordChar set to '*'. But when trying to enter a password into it on my HD2 it will only accept numbers and special chars.

Has anyone else ran into this problem?

Here's what I used:

panelTextboxItem = new SensePanelTextboxItem("tbWachtwoord");
panelTextboxItem.ShowSeparator = true;
panelTextboxItem.LabelText = "Wachtwoord";
panelTextboxItem.PasswordChar = '*';
listControl.AddItem(panelTextboxItem);
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
that is if you click show all controls, then you can see them in toolbox, but all disabled.

I am not sure if it ever worked 100% for anyone.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Nixeus:
So if i understarnd, "Divider" and "Separator" are already usable on the senseSDK ?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Nixeus:
Elbonzer should asking on a MSDN forum, i think thaht MVP's will help him rapidly to solve the toolbox issue !
[Windows Mobile Software Development] cyberde:
Yeap

listControl.AddItem(new SensePanelDividerItem("divName", "Divider"));
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Nixeus:
Here is my code

private StedySoft.SenseSDK.SensePanelDividerItem mydivider;

this.mydivider = new StedySoft.SenseSDK.SensePanelDividerItem();

this.mydivider.Name = "Div";
this.mydivider.Text = "Hello";
this.mydivider.Enabled = true;
this.mydivider.Visible = true;

this.Controls.Add(this.mydivider); // I have an error on this line :(

I don't see my control on my form !

Have i missing something ?

Thanks a lot,

regards,

Nixeus
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
Yes right, open the examples given by Ed in the download file. it has in it.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Nixeus:
The problem is that i want to add divider on my form and Just a divider.

It's possible ?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] thetallbloke:
Rip out the number Spinner into separate control

Hi all,

I think the Sense Interface SDK is AWESOME.. I haven't found many issues with them at all... some minor refresh issues that I'm yet to figure out or search for a resolution for, I can describe them later if anyone is interested...

I love the flick-to-scroll thing on the HD2 and in the controls this SDK offers.. HOWEVER the number picker control sucks..!!!

To the dude that programmed this, PLEASE don't take this as a personal attack, because it's not an attack at you... the way that HTC or whoever implemented number picking is not good either and I appreciate that you were just trying to give us that same controls....

Here's why I think the number picker control sucks...

I have an app that I want the user to pick a number between 1 and X, where X could be anything from 10 to 150'ish.... I haven't tested, but I think I recall finding that the control will "loop", so if you hit "down" when you're at 1, you go back to 150, but what if you want to enter 75 or something around the middle...

What would be really cool is to take the "spinning" number wheel thing out of the date/time selection control and put it out on its own... I've made a few controls of my own in the past for win-form applications... nothing as funky as this, so please correct me if I'm wrong... but I wouldn't have thought it would be too hard to pull out that small part of the control...

I'm not sure how you've built the date/time picker controls, but I wouldn't have thought it would be hard to just make a number picker...

It would be really nice to have a property for the number of digits to show.. ie. 3 digits would get us from 0 to 999....

Phew... any takers on a developer for this...???

The refresh thing I mentioned earlier... I sometimes have forms that open over the top of other forms (showdialog)... when the forms have closed, some of the sense controls don't refresh properly, so I get the label text and some partial image from the form that was over the top... This mainly happens in the label control.. but it may happen in others too...

Maybe I just need to call some method to refresh the screen or the controls or something... any ideas...???

Sorry for the long winded post... and I wouldn't be surprised if I have just wasted my time because the control is already built and out there... but anyway if it is please either post a link to it here or shoot me a message....

You deserve a big gold start from petty cash for reading down to here..

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
Yes it is.

You want to add on form or senselistcontrol which allows to scroll up/down?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
Ok where is my big gold ..... thing, i read it till end :) just kidding.!!

I will be working on a numericitem which will except decimal and also show comma, but it will popup a keyboard instead.

The idea which you mentioned may be lot of work, instead keyboard still is quicker for user i believe.

I will post that version in next few days as part of SenseSDKExtended. (link in my signature).

Regarding refresh issue, are you using normal form or transclusent?

in either way have you tried to first hide the 1st form and then show the second form, and then when 2nd form closes, show the first form again.

let me know.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] wesch00:
@Greenhacks

If you are working on such a numeric control, can you implement also a Step property allowing to increment not only in step 1 but others, i.e. 5 or 10. This should be easy.

And further, I've seen you extended the numeric control for up to three digits. Could it be done to have variable number of digits, depending on a format? Sometimes I need 4 or 5 digits. That's why also the Step value.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] adamrob69:
regarding the list box control. I have been experimenting about with it and i think its great, so top marks.

What im trying to do is dynamical change the text of a list item that has already been created and exists from form load. using the Index property of the list control i can get it to enabled/disable etc but i cant see a way of editing it?

Is this possible? I don't want to re-create the list because the text may change very often.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] MichelDiamond:
I haven't found it, perhaps I used the wrong search terms here, so sorry if already mentioned:

If I have a longer list of items, so that it can be scrolled and some items are set to not visible, the scroll "flickers" or "stucks" in 1.39.

In 1.37 I didn't mentioned this. Any possibility to scroll smooth also with some invisible items?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
Stepping is good idea, i like that. will add that feature.

Regarding more numbers, look for next release which allows to use keyboard to enter number, and still have the up/down buttons. that can have dynamically upto as many characters the control can fit width wise. usually i guess 9 including 2 decimal points.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
I am not sure if i understand what exactly you mean by invisible controls.

Do you mean the controls which get out of screen, like if there are 100 controls added, and on screen you see first 7, and rest gets visible after you scroll up?

is that what you mean?

If that is what you meant, then i guess i dont see any such issue with flicker.

What control you are using which behaves with flicker.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] cyberde:
Anyone a solution?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Nixeus:
Hello,

No i don't want to add on my form a senselistcontrol !

I just want to add manually a Divider or a Separator ( just for the design), like a SenseHeaderControl !

Regards,

Nixeus
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
Testing it now. will let you know in few minutes.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
I checked on this issue. and found not problem with it.

works perfect on everything.

This is what i used:

StedySoft.SenseSDK.SensePanelTextboxItem itm = new StedySoft.SenseSDK.SensePanelTextboxItem("TextItem");

itm.LabelText = "Password:";

itm.ShowSeparator = true;

itm.PasswordChar = '*';

itm.Text = "password";

slist.AddItem(itm);

if you still have problem with same code, please create a sample project and attach here. so i can test that and see what you are missing.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] cyberde:
Well that's what I've used too. In the emulator it works, but when deployed on my HTC HD2 it only accepts numbers and special characters.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] thetallbloke:
Damn-it a typo at a critcal point.. :-)

I mean to say "take a gold STAR out of petty cash"... even I was left wondering what a "gold starT" was... :-)

Oh well... such is life...
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
i tested on hd2 on one of my office friends phone. and it worked.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] cyberde:
Oh weird, ah whell. I'l post a sample project tonight then :)

I'll also give your extended sdk a try, maybe it's working there!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] adamrob69:
Found the solution

Me.senseListCtrl.BeginUpdate()
Dim panel As MyPanelItem1 = Me.senseListCtrl.Item(1)

panel.PrimaryText = "TESTING"
Me.senseListCtrl.EndUpdate()
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
I tested original control of textbox.

I have not recreated in my extended controls.

sample project will help to identify the issue.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
I wrote that control for you.

SenseDividerItem

You can find all details here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7595303&postcount=173

It will be part of my next release as well.

Will add feature to allow background image too. :)

let me know if this is what you wanted.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Nixeus:
Wowo my friend,

Your'so nice!!

You're my personal Jesus Christ :D

I will test the controle now !

Thanks a lot :)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Nixeus:
I have tested, and the control is ok :) Thanks a lot !

I'm dreaming about this Sense Interface SDK and your SKD Sense Extended with the tooblox :)

Drag and Drop and a lot of property on the inspector object :D

Will be it possible , if you can, to create te Sense Separtor ?

Thanks a lot :
[Windows Mobile Software Development] cyberde:
Hi I've attached a sample project to this post which is behaving the same as my original project.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
Glad it worked, was very simple thing.

I have no plans to make it work for toolbox. I believe it is better to code and add properties manually.

Here is the SenseSeperatorItem i wrote:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7599564&postcount=178

Let me know.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
Your code is correct.

I ran that code on emulator and device, and works ok.

Can you delete all files from emulator and device folder, and test again.

OR

Simply copy Debug folder from bin folder after rebuild in to device in some different location, and test it.

I see no problem in this, works properly.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] janneman22:
Did you make any progress on this?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] cyberde:
That's exactly what I've done, so it it must be my phone that is "*****ing". I will try to flash a new rom tomorrow and see if that fixes anything.

Thnx for testing mate!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] MichelDiamond:
ok, not 100 but 20... and so 15 are set to visible - already before scrolling. the scrolling "stucks" if it get over the invisible ones.

they are divided into sections with a checkbox to make some of them visible or not visible.

that's different controls: timeitem, timedate, radio buttons (some of the group are invisible), checkboxes.

I see this flickering on different places... the only common are radio buttons of them all (and the checkbox to make them invisible)

edit: with "visible" I mean the item property

...visible = false
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
Can you possibly attach an example project? then only i can test it.

thanks.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] meltwater:
@Nightstorm99 - will your extensions be released for developing with at all?

I think I could make good use out of the grid view of images (nice easy selection of facebook contacts...how nice would that be?).

Thanx 2 U, I sent a PM.

Cheers

[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
I was able to see the issue happening of flickering, which is a good thing :)

tonight i will find why it is happening and let you know.

This is more of bouncing problem rather then flickering.

Should be easy to fix. will get back to you.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] MichelDiamond:
fine :)

it seems that it recomputes the invisibility each time if you want to scroll over them in the visible area.

thank you 4 looking into

Hello,

I have a little problem !

I have added on my form a picture box with a png file !

My form have a grey background color.

My png file has transpaency.

I have set the back color of my picturebox to transparency !

Result : The backcolor of my picturebox is white !

After, i have try to force the backcolor to grey, same result, the backcolor of png is white !

Anyone have an idea ?

Thanks a lot :)

regards,

Nixeus
[Windows Mobile Software Development] kliptik:
The Microsoft SDK Picture box? It doesn't display the transparency properly. I found a different control a long time ago that was supposed to work, but I never ended up using it... Or you could edit your image file to match tthe backcolor you want to use (if it's going to be consistent).
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Nixeus:
Is it possible to doing this with the SenseAPI.SenseImage ?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] cyberde:
Okay, I've just updated to the latest Dutty ROM but still nothing. Will try your extended SDK now.

[Windows Mobile Software Development] thetallbloke:
Hi guys...

I'm trying to display to my users a whole heap of text..... this text may only take up one screen or it may take up more than one screen and I want the user to be able to flick-to-scroll... kinda like IE, opera or Acrobat..

What control(s) would you guys use to do this... I don't want to be exporting to PDF or anything crazy like that, I just want to display the text that is read from a DB table...

Any ideas...

I've been playing with multi-line textboxes, but then the user selects text rather than scrolling when the flick across the screen...

Also are there any code examples on how to detect a East/West flick scroll...???

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Software Development] wesch00:
When I want only to display some text to the user, I simply write my own SensePanelItem, derived from the interface. This control can have the size you want. But you are responible for displaying th text.

What I do not know, if it works correctly if the height is large then the screen. And I assume it does not support text wider then the screen.

If there is a problem with the heigt, you can insert such a PanelItem for every paragraph and not displaying the separator. That gove the user the feeling of a continuous text (if the paragraph itself not exceeds the screen).

HTH

Hi

I'm a newbie to c# as well.

I'm stumped by the statement below:

IImage iimg = SenseAPIs.SenseImage.GetIImageFromResource("about");

Where are the images located. I tried all 3 sample projects, replaced with my own images, etc, but I can't get past this....

Basically, I want to draw up a panel with multiple pictureboxes, with text either below or above the pictures. This panel should then be scrollable via gestures.

Any help please?

Rgds
[Windows Mobile Software Development] adamrob69:
Add the images to your project tree (Add existing item)

Then view the image properties and change "content" to "embeded". This will build the image as part of the .exe and enables you to reference it as [your project].[image]

Back to my previous post. Anyone know how to stop the scrolling to the right for child lists (as i dont have any!)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] wesch00:
Do I understand you right, you have a SensePanelMoreItem but without children and want to prevent scrolling to the right?

I didn't do this, but try in the OnShowChildren (do not know the excat name) to call the method, which scrolls back to the parent. There is such one, I use it from a menu.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] adamrob69:
No i don't have a sensePanelMore item. Its just a list with a generic list item. but it still lets you scroll to the right.

I did try what you said but I didnt spend time on it because i need to prevent it scrolling in the first place. not scroll then scroll back automatically.
