NEW: Tray Today Items

I've developed a nifty little tray application that lets you enable/disable and move up/down items on your today page. This saves a lot of time when you're playing around with today screen plug ins, compared to going through the settings pane.
You can get the first beta here: http://oxymoron.se/traytodayitems_beta1.cab

Hi.
This is very good and saves lots of time. I had to put a short cut in the startup folder myself. Apart from that its perfect on my PDA2K.
Thanks,
Ian Watson

@skip: Looks like your TodayPrograms plugin is about what I am looking for, except: From what what i read is that you put all shortcuts in the 'Programs' folder on the plugin. I would like to have only the shortcuts in a specific (best but not neccesary would be a configurable...) folder shown . . .
Could you introduce that into your plugin?

Great that someone is trying it out!
Like I said it is still a beta version, although I am not aware of any bugs per se. I'll definitely make so that it automatically installs in the startup folder. Also, a program icon would not be too shabby.
Skip

Edsub, your suggestion is not a bad one at all. I first had an idea to make a toggle for every program whether it would show on the today screen or not.
Now I'm thinking that your idea might be even better, let the user choose a folder from which to get the shortcuts. This would allow for an even more flexible choice of programs. However, this would definitely make it harder to customize for people who would rather not deal with the file system and shortcuts.
I'll look into it.
One question: Is a .EXE installer desirable? I'll definitely make the my programs available as .CABs, but would anyone prefer a .EXE installer for Windows and Active Sync?
Skip

IMO a CAB is better. Just copy to the device & tap . . .
With .exe you allways get the question if its a PC or PPC exe . . . .

Hi.
Is it possible for you to add OPTIONS in the menu to allow you to get to the options screen for that item.
Thanks,
Ian

You should always take care about putting anything in the startup directory, since this modifies the device's behaviour at startup. If there is a problem which requires a reset, the user might not like you messing with startup - I don't.

Disagree again I'm afraid, what about people who don't want to install to the default location but want to put the s/w on a Storage card? Unless you have CABinstaller you can't easily. Always provide both options if you want to keep the users happy.

That's a good idea. I should be able to call up the options screen somehow. I'll see when I find time to work on it.

Hi LeSkip, good start, really like to today tray items program.
With respect to the Today Program yes an EXE installer would be great. I like your original idea to be able to choose which programs to display.
Also if I choose say 15 programs to display it overlaps the programs instead of say placing on a second line or like iLauncher having an Icon to get to the second set. Also making the icon Size configurable would be great.
I have the Icons on my screen, but tapping one does not start the program. Also I have choosen 8 icons to display, the eight Icon is cutoff (it is cutoff about 1/2 cm before the right side of the screen).

Today Programs is definitely far from finished, I just wanted to see there was a user base for this kind of application.
An option to use 16x16 icons instead of the large 32x32 is high on my to-do list. Letting the user show more than the number of programs that actually fits on the screen isn't much use, so I'll just limit the number to whatever width the screen has.
I am working on tapping as a way of launching.
Small arrows that show when there are more programs to scroll to will be added soon.
The right side cut off has to do with the program being launched when a scroll bar was visible. I'll try to solve this problem.

Hi.
I have only installed the Tray Today software. Is the other software with the icons for creating software shortcuts? I use tdLaunch: http://www.pocketpcfreewares.com/en/index.php?soft=176
The Tray Today software is really good - even better with an "options" in the menu . But there seems to be quite a few other icon shortcut software for the Today Screen. Is yours going to be any different to others? Like I said, I have not installed yours yet.
Regards,
Ian Watson

The sole purpose of "Today programs" (horrible development name) is easy access to the Programs folder with the D-pad. I was getting annoyed with having to click Start>Programs to access them. I haven't tried any similar products, but there's probably several of them.
Skip

Possible new name: Today Switcher... because the natural progression of this tool has got to be to permit people to store multiple Today configurations and switch between them via the tray tool.
It's something I would love to develop - I believe there's one buggy one out there - but I just don't have the hours in the day! So go for it, the world is waiting for it!

I originally didn't intend to go that far with it, but the idea is starting to appeal to me. I'll try to have an updated version ready by next week, but I'm not sure how much I'll be able to complete by then.
I'm trying to finish my degree this semester, so I don't really have time for my hobbies...

hello, i found this (or same name) application VERY useful someday, only problem is, that links aren't working now, anyone have link?

*skin preview added* two instances of a today plugin (rltoday) - possible?

hi,
i would like to know is it possible to have two instances of rltoday plugin in the today plugin options? how can i duplicate it?
i would to like to use one rltoday plugin for one tab of ultimate launcher and another rltoday plugin for another tab in ultimate launcher. so that i can put different objects on the different tab.
if not, is there any other today plugin that would allow icon/image (link) to be in any size (very large) and in any position by determining its x and y values
thanks for the help

Have you by any chance asked that on the rltoday forum?
That would indeed be perfect for UL.

You MAY find renaming the dll and then renaming the 'new' today item in the registry in HKCU/Software/Microsoft/Today/Itemsand then repointing the path to the newly-renamed dll.
I just did this with Effcom's redio toggler to test it. Don't have or use rltoday. Now there are 2 togglers on Today on my hermes and both function. Today items that don't just have the 1 DLL would be more complicated - dunno where rltopay fits into that.
Glad you asked because now I know it can be done. Could be useful.

rltoday does seem to have oly 1 dll.
At least that's what I find in it's installation folder.
However, wouldn't I have to rename it before installing the .cab?
How would I fo that?

trying to come up with something different from the normal small or squared button/icons
this is what i have come up with so far... still not quite done
it doesn't show everything on the screen... but with a swipe of a finger, you can change to a different page view showing different items (thanks to ultimate launcher)
i also removed the top bar and bottom bar, plus replacing the need to press the ok/close (x) button by using center button of the (trackpad?) just like the iphone - one button and your back to the homescreen (in this case the today screen) using AEbutton plus
considering to use something like the vistahide battery gauge to show signal strength

I was trying to do this a while back and indeed changing the dll name and registry values allowed me to have two instances of rltoday in the today screen. The problem was both rltoday were reading from the same ini file that sets up the skin, so basically I would have two copies of the same skin. If I changed one, so did the other. Unfortunatelly I could get around that at the time.

I think you could achieve the effect you want by using BatteryStatus. It doesn't allow to position images by directly giving their xy coordinates, but instead places them in multiple rows. But you still have the ability to shift images up/down/sideways, so they don't have to be aligned.
As a bonus you'll be able to display signal strength, battery and memory state, and a few more things.

i would like to add the sms,call,mail sticky note to my today screen can you tell me how you did it. thanks

(14/08/2008) Scroll Launcher 0.05 - BugFix!

Scroll Launcher is a Diamond styled Launcher for WM Devices.
Scroll Launcher looks inside the windows start menu folder for all files, and then adds them to a modified KListControl from here
Requirements:
.NET CF 2.0
WM2003 and above Pocket PC device. (I haven't worked out where the Smartphone version stores its startmenu. As soon as I do, I'll release a new version).
QVGA or VGA device
2MB of RAM (may use more on VGA)
Screen shots:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Usage:
Install the cab to your device. Execute the link called "Scroll Launcher" in Programs, and then scroll till you find the program you want!
Notes:
No icons are added yet.
A settings program is included!
EOA (ExitOnAction) sets whether the application should close when you hit a link.
The "Path" option allows changing of the path. If you have a non WWE ROM, please set this prior to use!
You must restart Scroll Launcher to apply changes.
Thanks to dosfan and gingercat for the original KListControl.
Thanks to kidnamedAlbert for the icon!
The sourcecode for my modified KListControl is also attached for those who are interested.

this looks great.
just wish we could a better looking background to go with it

this is great.
now im going to add a program icon to it

i have edited the black scroll launcher and added a program icon
just replace the .exe with the one in the program files/scroll launcher folder

the idea look similar to Schaps interface for hes upcoming rom nice work

looks interesting! when i installed it and run the launcher, it does not find any of my programs. the only one that shows up is the launcher in the list.
i installed on my device and i tried it on my storage card same effect. only the launcher shows up in the program list. do i need to install anything else? i only installed the black launcher attached in post number 5.

thank you mister moderator l3v5y

Nice work l3v5y!

Just great
In black is very, very, very nice.
Just jumpse to me that it is missing 2 thing.... the icons, and not to hide the top bar.
Keep up the good work, for you and dosfan.

Does your ROM have any localisation? It may not work with differently named start menus. Also, are the files in "\\Windows\\Start Menu\\Programs" *.lnk files?

I'm adding some customization to it (via the registry!) so I can add that as an option.

l3v5y, I just tried your launcher (actually referred from the finger friendly thread) and I like it a lot, it can easily compensate what pointui is missing, which is only 7 items allowed.
I don't know if you could add these:
1) Groups of the shortcuts. I have way too many shortcuts currently grouped into folders right now (for pointui access). However if your launcher supports layers, such as if I double tap office then I would be able to select word mobile, excel mobile etc that would make it a little cleaner look.
2) Index scroll, a vertical scroll bar on either the left side or right side when scrolling the corresponding first letter comes up, like what pcm contacts, icontact and random access has. It maybe too pointui-ly but certainly increases the usability of your launcher.
Just my 2 cents. Keep up the good work!

Good ideas, but they may take some time...
Currently the items are sorted by creation date, so I need to change that before 2 will work.
Groups may also take some time as I'll have to redo the click handling...

great work brother do we only install the cab file? or what to do with the other files?

The cab file is all you need with WM5 +

Doesn't seem to work very well on Diamond... when I do a restart it pop ups when I'm typing my Pin code... and then The icon is hiding 'behind' TouchFlo .. so I cant get to it... and nothing happens when I try to start it in the Start menu...
And I cant chose any alarm sounds....
Anyone else having problems with Diamond and SpoonAlarm?

ok
on ie not see the image but i can download it.
testing....
thanks

Ironically, I never heard of this program until yesterday and downloaded the previous version yesterday. It seemed call but it kept going off every 3 minutes. I said dismiss but it just kept going off so I uninstalled it. But it keeps going off, even though it's uninstalled. Thankfully it stopped for now, but I think it may happen again. How can it keep going if I uninstalled it?

Nice but I don't like the tray item. When launching the app for the second time it won't show up, you have to use the tray item. I use Throttle Launcher so the tray is hidden, which makes the app quite unusable.

SpoonAlarm 2.0
I think there are some issues with Diamond, a friend of mine already reported it's not working very well for him too.
I will check it out and try to fix the problem.
Can you explain the tray icon problem please?
Thanks!

Have a way to link it to the taskbar clock, or the user can create a shortcut in whatever launcher they use.

Thanks.
So I think what I will do is to give it as optional configuration.
Will update you as soon as it is fixed.
Gil.

I too hadn't heard about your program until today - and it seems great, except for the tray icon...
There are many places you can allow the user to place the icon:
Tray
Control Panel
Start Menu Panel (main)
Start Menu -> Programs
If you could create an option to allow the user to create a quick access shortcut in one or more of those locations, then I think you'll probably make everyone's day.
Other than that, the application looks much nicer and more powerful than the default WM clock/alarm utility. Great job!

Looks good , like to see the update with a short cut to. Thanks for your hard work .

Possible to set multiple alarms ?

Not working
I was looking forward to this program but it doesn't work for me.
a- I can't use the tray icon. I NEVER look at the today screen.
b- I can't select an MP3. It doesn't show any.
I need to be able to run it from a shortcut.
I am hoping it will work soon. I'll even donate $10 if it works.
Thanks,
Jeannette

Currently the default one does and any alternate alarm program I get must at bare minimum, have teh same features as the default alarm, plus of course the addition creature features. So multi alarm would have to be there in order for me to use it.
I am happy with the default alarm to be honest. My ONLY grief is the lack of MP3 support for setting the alarm sounds. The SpoonAlarm looks good but if teh curently functionality is missing at all then it does me no good and I will stick with the default alarm. I just have to convert MP3 sounds to wave and make sure they are in the windows folder, a pain but it works.

Is there a way SpoonAlarm can map to the alarm icon (next to the clock) in HTCHome? Looks like a good basic alarm app though. A lot of these alarm apps have horrible looking UI's with non touch friendly interfaces.

Manilla2d-styled locker and today screen

Manilla2d is really impressive shell of course, but there's no some really needed functions, that we can use in basic today shell. I was really disappointed in absence of two things in it: the first one is interface-styled locker/unlocker and the second one is an ability to use basic today plugins. Of course, we've got another software solutions to fix it, but their's problem is that they don't fit to manilla's interface conception. I've tried to solve this problems, and now i'd like to share my results. Dont kick me pls=))
Eferything posted below was made for using with this theme (with background from this one) with this clock pack. You can repaint it as you wish, consider this all an exampe or an idea=))
1. S2U2. S2U2 imho is the best solution for lock/unlock device. You can find it here. (My version is 0.86) We can use it as is, but iphone-like slider don't looks native to manilla2d. To make it looks more suitable i'd to fully repaint a slider, and this is what i got at the end.

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Moving part is an icon of a padlock. When moving it looks strange of course, but the only another variant i got was without unlock animation at all. So this one better)) In archive you can find gfx folder from s2u2 (to install delete your current one, there's nedded some files not to be) and lang.ini file with fixed time format string (HH:mm instead of H:mm). This skin as it is is not suitable fot those who uses slide 2 answer opion, because i didn't paint it))
2. Today plugins. The main trouble of manilla2d as i guess is that there's no a widget to install another today plugins. To solve this problem i needed the following soft:
SecondToday - virtual today-like screen.
HomeScreen PlusPlus - today plugin that allows free positioning of elements,
MortScript - script language for pda.
spacer and spacer2 (attached) - two copies of today plugin what allows to make spacers between another plugins.
So what i've done:
1. Install this all;
2. Make a screenshot of manilla to set it to background of secondToday.
3. Run SecondToday and set spacer as a first plugin. The only way to configure spacers on SecondToday i found is edit the registry. So go to HKCU//software/pocketMax/Spacer and set height of it to 40 (maybe you like another height above your first plugin)
4. Connect in SecondToday below spacer plugins you need to be shown. Set spacer2 below them. Do nothing in tegistry for a while.
5. The most interesting. After the spacer2 set HomeScreenPlusPlus. Pot into its directory two setting sets from archive. The first one is to make setup easier, the second is working one. Open properties of HomeScreenPlusPlus -> advanced and select where sttoday_temp xml.
6. After that you need to change height of spacer2 to put tapzones on the backgoung images like it on the screen. This parameter is in HKCU//software/pocketMax/Spacer2. Don't forget to shut up second today after every try to see changes))
7. Put 5 scripts from archive into /Program Files/MortScript/scripts (or somewhere you want, but change paths in HomeScreenPlusPlus XMLs).
8. Try it. Of corse, sliding won't work, but tapping to zones will open vidget painted on background)))
9. Change sttoday_temp to sttoday it settings of HomeScreenPlusPlus.
10. Put a shortcut of SecondToday to programs widget of manilla.
11. Voila! You got something like below (Remember that you can't slide in this window)
I know it's not the best solution, but i don't want to change functionality to beauty)) This variant is a compromise i think)) In archive you can find S2U2 skin, MortScript scripts, HomeScreen++ themes and two spacers. Good luck in installation=))
ps. sorry my english))

Nice work!
Can you make a VGA version of your S2U2 theme?

another important feature about manilla 2d is NO notifications button or screen..u have to tap the taskbar to see them..

Wow

Jiles.....this is simply sweet!
Now I can have my own plugins on M2..love it
Give me a minute I need to finish configuration and I'll be back. I've a small request. I assigned second today to FtouchSL so i just need to swipe the bottom screen fast to open it. So I would like you to help me change motorscript files to point to specific tabs.
Jiles how can I change motorscripts files to assign the last icon to Programs, next one to Settings then the rest in order to Photos, maps and Internet?

2-Arturo- i'm in suspence about MortScript i'll try of course
2johanromijn thanks! about VGA sorry i'm afraid i have no device to try on.
ADD 2-Arturo- by series of taps only i'm afraid. As i remember, MortScript cannot slide, only tap (command MouseClick(x, y))

Thanks Jiles
Add2 about the swipes I was talking about this program http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=338143
I don't know if you heard about it but you can assign any aplication to "swipes" left, right, up, down etc. So I was saying that I assigned secondtoday to right swipe it's much more convenient because I don't have to access "Programs" tab to activate secondtoday. I just need to swipe somwhere on the screen from left to right to activate it. In other words you can open it from main screen of Manilla or from contacts screen etc. Try it out
Oh and thanks again for trying to change the motoscripts files. I appreciate it
Ok it took me a while but this is how my secondtoday looks like

2-Arturo- Hmmm.. I on the contrary try to disable FTouchFlo on the today screen, cause it makes its native slide lagging The best solution would be to place secondToday on not-working manilla widget "operator", but i hardly can guess how to do it
