There are actually more than one
You can this with WAD ( & WA2 ). And with these you can make your own graphics...
And then the martian over at Marsware suddenly emerged from oblivion, and release a today-analog-clock-beta, you'd have to register to the wiki over at Marsware.... ( this is btw skinable too )
And then there's the old SPB Time....also skinable, but a program you'd have to execute to see the time...
I use ( and prefer ) the WAD/WA2-sollution, but the new beta from Marsware seems promising...
Good hunting... :wink:
It's not available yet, but I made one a while back. Have to package this up at some point.

Battery Pack
Battery Pack Pro has a small analog clock option that displays in the Today plug in.

I have to correct you in this Vijay, it is available, it's a beta, but available... :wink:
Flipside: sure, if you're me! I write so many "prototype" apps, many just get forgotten! I like VJEphemeris, but it's likely that VJSihaya, if it ever sees the light of day, will entirely replace the Today screen (at least mine!) with an emulated and improved Today function.
It will certainly have a floating clock on the "desktop", I like those, so it's likely VJEphemeris will just fall off the edge of my world :wink:
However, I use my Magician more than my Universal, so it's worth me continuing it for that device... so yeah, tis available to a very limited circle!

Interesting. Have you guys ever tried Today+?
Requires some considerable hackery, and is resource heavy, but will produce analog clocks and a gazillion more things as well. Very powerful. Hard work.
V
VJ, is it possible to have your beta plugin for the analog clock on today's screen?
Not really GiGi. I haven't updated it for a long time, I've got no time because I'm full time on all of my old stuff first. And the version I use is unfortunately specific to my device (ie no config for launch items etc).
One day I'll try to put it into its own plugin, but I'm sure there will be other solutions before then.
Apologies once again.

I also use other plugins that I haven't released yet.

Wow you're screen's nice!!
What did you use to get all the essential indicators on your Top most Start bar? i.e. Missed Phone Call, SmS indicator and voicemail, those are really handy.
Also what app gives you the giant Time and date and temperature?
I'd be happy to get a screen even half as functional as yours.
rxr - the screenshot above is an older version of my Today screen, but it's stable.
When I'm feeling adventurous, I use a plugin that's in ongoing development (slowly) called VJEphemeris, combining various old and new features of my various plugins:
The bar at the top is using my app/trick called VJToggleToday to hide the start bar (actualy minimise it to the top 2 pixels), and then replace the start bar with PhoneAlarm. I'm not sure if PhoneAlarm is fully WM5 yet, this screenshot is from WM2003, my main phone.
The plugin giving the large date and temp on the earlier screenshot is something called VJAudioNotes, which has also been upgraded slightly, but is being replaced by VJEphemeris. It's mainly designed because I use a dual SIM, and I need to know which operator I'm running on easily. Unforunately I don't think it's fully WM5 compatible yet, but since I don't use a WM5 day to day, I've not investigated it yet.
Also hidden away there is NotesToday with a custom skin, not shown (the small dot under the QOTD plugin, and beneath that an unreleased spacer plugin called VJTodaySpacer.
I tested many many plugins before I settled on my combinations. I like them, they're stable and functional for me. People will have personal preferences... but I like a usable but informative Today screen. Pretty pictures of naked women aren't helpful when glancing at the Today screen during a meeting :wink:

Using a customized HTCTODAY
(its posted here , use search)
Just does what I want and its small!

With your permission i'd be more than willing to test it out on my WM5 device
There are a couple of programs which modify the way the today screen appears:
1. No Plugins Today: toggles on/off items/plugin on today screen for a fresh looking today screen (http://www.ictinus.com/NoPluginsToday/)
2. Vijay555's Toggletoday which enables a 16% larger screen
Is there way to combine the functionality of both programs into one. The purpose of this program is to:
1. Lower memory usage and mabe even save a little battery power
2. Allows for clear view of the today image
It might be possible to combine No Plugins Today with VJToggleToday, but is it necessary? It seems to me that although their usage is complimentary, building it into one program doesn't really help. Just run No Plugins Today when you need it, or my app when you need it.
If there's demand though, I'll consider building it in perhaps.

No today --> multiple today
Hi Guys,
I don't know if this is an idea. The no today screen plugin seems like a good idea. But how about switching between 2 different today screens. So it's possible to have for instance an today screen with the calender and tasks and other usefull plugin that have to do with dates etc. and a second today screen where you get all the information about ur pda e.g. battery, birthdays, overclocking, etc. or even communication today screen versus datebook today screen. I think you will understand what i mean.
I'm currently using the Orange homescreen plugin, but would love to have a hardware button assigned to switch between the trad. today screen and the orange one.
Maybe it is possible with no today screen haven't tested it yet. if it is disregard this message.
Cheers,
Shah

thanks Vjiay,
I'll try that out.
By the way do you also do request programs? because I had an idea to expand the Orange Homescreen application with certain extra items. Or do you know any programmers who would be interested.

You can try SK Today Commander (beta)
This can do 2-9 today screen profiles
We plan release it in nearest time.
http://s-k-tools.com/tc/tc.zip
I lack the prgramming skill to make this happen, but this idea is way to revolutionary to WM imo.
If someone could look into making this happen i would be more then grateful. It goes like this - A multiple homescreen switcher,
scrollable by flicking horizontally on the screen. Like touch cube or something totally different?,
customizable anims, etc. etc. Different plugins allowed on each homescreen.

Could we live without his ??!
Any ideas welcome !!
something sismilar can be achieved with wisbar desktop, also a software likt that one you suggesting will eat a lot of resources in switching the today screens and to support a lot of today plugins...
it is not impossible, but it is hard to achieve
As you mentioned "homescreen", I would presume that you are using a smartphone rather than PDA-phone (i.e. with touch screen). There is a software out there that supports multiple Today screen (not freeware though). However, I heard from many that the software isn't that well written or just the fact that WM5/6+HTC stuff aren't powerful enough to run too many Today plugins.
rlToday and MortScripts
Actually you can do what you are asking using rlToday and MortScripts, By Creating MortScripts that Change Which Today PlugIns are enabled per "Page" and even which rlToday Skin is used. One Example of how to do this can be found here.
You can always look Here
V2R Multidesk is very neat piece of software, but it is a lil heavy
idea is as old as WAD is.
and it is BEST idea - since author made WAD standalone - without WA2, which is just ridiculous hog.

WAD "todays" are not prefetched, so memory requirements are LOW(i said LOW).
of course, there's always POCKETAGE, which is best freeware thing i ever seen(and i've seen MANY things).
it takes more mem(preloading of today plugs and icons), but on other hand it uses png's with transparency for icons, WAD uses tga's which are 4x bigger.
if you are able to beat these, you are god.
any good links to Pocketage in english?
I was thinking of the cube always set to active, to act as your today screen. With your wallpaper on it,
with different icons/anims and ability to change size of icons and placement on the today screen .

Hello everybody !
After numerous attempts to customize my HTC trinity for a thumb-based experience, I finally got onto some applications that really do the job :
- Tene's PocketCM for the contacts
- ArticCat's OTO for the calendar (works well so far, however I hope to see more of it soon)
- Paulya's Vista II dialer replacement
- A_C's S2U for the lock and S2V for the pics viewer
- HTC's PhonePad for the SIP and Mediaplayer for the music player
- SPB's Mobile Shell for the navigation and the menus.
What I'm missing is a launcher that would work as a today plugin, and that would support large icons in PNG format (thus, with alpha transparency). By "big" I mean "larger than the default 32x32 pixels that all launchers support" - 48 or 60 pixels beeing the size I'm after (something large enough for my fat thumbs ). I don't need tab support, since there are only a small number of apps I want to access from the today screen (typically 8-12).
Do you know if anything that'd meet my needs exists for WM5? Even for a small/reasonable fee (means, around 10-15$) ?
Thanks a million in advance !
I think i used claunch to put a really big shortcut (64x64px) on my todayscreen
Greetings, Vi
ThrottleLauncher
Search for the ThrottleLauncher thread here. No Today plugin yet but all indications are that it will be coming. Great launcher, you can size the rows the pictures are in to any size you wish. I am using 56picsels by 56picsels.
pocketage - no size limit
I tried to install PocketAge from the latest CAB I could find on this board, but something must have gone bad... My Trinity is now stuck as reboot
Everytime I soft-reset it, it got stuck then block at the following step :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Of course, none of the hard or soft buttons work and I can't dismiss this reminder. I tried to remove the corresponding event from outlook but I couldn't manage to sync the device. I noticed I can access the device filesystem. One strange thing, though, makes me thing that the system is not completely frozen : the clock on the reminder changes and shows the correct time.
Any idea how to recover my phone without having to hard-reset it ? Thanks !!!

yeah, claunch is a good one. it's a today plugin and you can use custom icons. not sure if they are png though never tried it. it has way more options than you need but you can configure it how you want....

Giger Unique is going to finish
Well lets say - it looks nice - icons with 3 styles, each symbol with Alien Pattern... PN and ICO format for you (65+ images)
At last - you will be happy about iContact - there will be no icon?
How I did it? Kinder Surprise.... Touchable Alien body
and at all I added Application Launcher skin
And by the way - two more themes are wayiting (ot three?)
I know about Silky graphics (little bit fetish? ), Wood style....
and how about Wubmarine WORLD in your PDA?
OK... A stopped work on Giger unique - it takes me a lot of time to draw new graphics...
But here goes WOODEN with new icon set - check it
