[new release] VJTrayLaunch - tray icon launcher

Guys,
This is just a simple Tray icon launcher. I recommend you use the one in PHM tools, but if you've had any troubles with that one, try this.
It's just a spin off from the VJBigPhone project, so it's yours to use!
Basically install the cab. It will install two example shortcuts in your startmenu.
Usage is just by making a shortcut to VJTrayLaunch, copying the path and name of the program you want to launch, and appending that to vjtraylaunch.exe, eg
"\program files\vijay555\vjtraylaunch\VJTrayLaunch.exe" \windows\notes.exe
Note, no speech marks required in the program you want to launch.
At this time you can't specify parameters for the launched program. However, if required, make a shortcut to the program, specify command parameters there, and then use VJTrayLaunch on that.
In this way, using VJPhoneTools for example, you can place a phonecall directly from the tray, or send your wife an SMS with one click.

nice job vijay!!! special thanks to you!!!

Thanks Vijay...Works a treat

VJ > Is this WM 5.0 compatible ?
Edit : Sorry I find the answer on your website "WM2003 and WM5 compatible." :wink:

Hi,
is there a way to add an icon into Today Tray, for launching the "Programs" window?
I've tried the parameter "\Windows\Start Menu\Programs", without success.
It says doesn't find 'Programs'. I understand why, but maybe there is an alternative way!?
Also some added icons added at Tray, show the "notes" icon.
Why? Is possible to fix it somehow?
Thanks and best regards
Fernando Correia

Conchas: I'm not really sure how to open the programs menu at a specified page. I've never looked into it, I guess we'll have to check out the hex to see what .exe is used and if it takes command line parameters.
No idea about the notes icon! Are you using the full path correctly? I had a quick look at the code but can't see why it would be using it. I know it sometimes displays some odd icons if you don't use the full path correctly, but it has no relation to notes.exe internally...
Anyone else having this problem? What exact command line are you using?
V

Yes, I'm using the correct and complete path.
"\Program Files\vijay555\VJTrayLuanch\VJTrayLaunch.exe" "\Program Files\NoviiMedia\NR Deluxe\NR Deluxe.exe"
At least is completes succesfully and once taped the icon at Today Tray, the NoviiRemote is launched correctly.
Just the icon appears as if it was the "Notes" program.

Conchas: does it work ok with other apps, eg calc.exe?
You shouldn't need speech marks on the app, eg
"\Program Files\vijay555\VJTrayLuanch\VJTrayLaunch.exe" \Program Files\NoviiMedia\NR Deluxe\NR Deluxe.exe
If you can, still have problems, send me NR Deluxe.exe so I can have a quick look at it.
Thanks!
V

This is great program
Thanks Vj
I m going to play around with this for a while, I'll let you know if theres any problem

Great!
It was launching the application correctly anyway.
I used the speech marks because of the space inside the executable name.
After removing them as your sugestion it either launches the program as the icon displays correctly as well.
Can you yell where to tweak these tray icons (Registry!?)
I would like to configure the order they appear.

conchas is the icon working ok now then?
i'm afraid it is not possible to change the order of the icons externally, just by loading vjtraylaunch in the order you want the apps displayed.
in time I will work on the "tabbed" version and that will permit precise control of icon position.
v

Yes, icon it's workin properly now.

i want to put the Settings-System-Memory icon on the tray, but don't know what .exe file should be run.
how could VJtraylaunch do this?

Try this one:
http://www.vijay555.com/vj/Releases/VJTrayLaunch/memory.lnk
or just copy this text into notepad, save as memory.lnk, and use VJTrayLaunch
24#ctlpnl.exe cplmain.cpl,4?\windows\DIM.exe,0
let me know how it goes.
I'll update this app quite soon. Had some good ideas..

Didn't work. There's a error window popup. See attached bmp file for details. Also note that the shortcut icon next to it is different from others.
i have 2 files created:
1, memory.lnk, as you mentioned, contains the following texts and be placed under the \windows folder.
24#ctlpnl.exe cplmain.cpl,4?\windows\DIM.exe,0
2,VJTrayLaunch Mem.lnk, in the same start menu folder as other shortcuts,
73#"\Program Files\vijay555\VJTrayLuanch\VJTrayLaunch.exe" \windows\memory.lnk
p.s. i don't know what the leading "73#" means:-(
any idea?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The 73 is supposed to be the number of characters following the "#". As far as I've ever been able to figure out, this is ignored entirely, though. I usually set my shortcuts to lead with 32 or 64 or something.. depends on the position of the planets I guess %)

i make several try and found that this tray launcher can't launch any "shortcut of shortcut", that means only .exe files could be launched as a tray icon shortcut, not .lnk files.
anything wrong?

RE
Hi vijay555
Thank you very much. I've been looking for such a simple traylaunch program for a long time.
Just a request. Can this program be made just like any launcher program where it allows the user to specify the Target location of the program (in this case the exe file)? Well, command line input can be an option.
HandyLauncer, which I'm using, is a good example although it does not have traylaunch capability.
It would be so much simpler
Many thanks

RE
Ooooops.....found a problem
Apparently, after a soft reset the icons in the tray disappeared. I've to reactivate them in order for them to appear
Is this a bug?
I'm using QTEK9000 (aka Universal)
Thanks

FOSA: if your place your shortcuts in the \windows\startup folder, they'll reappear I guess! They're only shown when you launch the VJTraylaunch configured .lnk files.
huangyz: I think I was probably trying to be too clever: I specified the dim.exe file to give you a nice icon. The file the icon comes from, \windows\DIM.exe should be in your windows folder. If it's not, that could be part of the problem.
Shortcuts to shortcuts do work in VJTrayLaunch, so you can specify a .lnk as the target. I've tried the memory.lnk I hosted on my website, here:
http://www.vijay555.com/vj/Releases/VJTrayLaunch/memory.lnk
If you right click on that and save it to your PC, then activesync it to your PDA, put in your VJTrayLaunch folder, then prepare your VJTrayLaunch shortcut. I find the best way to do this is click on the memory.lnk file in gsfinder, and then choose menu edit > copy path.
Then, create a shortcut to VJTrayLaunch, edit the properties of the shortcut, go to the end of
"\Program Files\vijay555\VJTrayLaunch\VJTrayLaunch.exe" and then do ctrl+v on your softkeyboard. This will paste the path to memory.lnk in for you.
Just FYI, in your example:
73#"\Program Files\vijay555\VJTrayLuanch\VJTrayLaunch.exe" \windows\memory.lnk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
you spelt VJTrayLaunch wrong - VJTrayLuanch. Is that the problem?
All: I will work on two major improvements to this very simple app shortly:
1. Dialog to browse for files and specify command lines.
2. Configuration files to permit multiple tray items.
Ridiculously, I haven't had time to learn how to input a text file and split it into lines. Split() in vb used to be a favourite of mine... but I'll do it shortly. If anyone's got any example code to input and output to xml or a text file, splitting into an array, I'd be grateful, it'd save me time writing from scratch.

Image converter

Can anyone recommend a free image converter please.
I want to convert a bitmap file 240x350 to a small size 21x25
Any suggestions please.
Thanks very much.

How about a converter for jpeg to bitmap? A freeware would also be nice.

You can also try a free application called Photo2PPC

Thanks. This is a Pocket PC application right? Is it compatible with the Universal?
How about a converter from jpeg to bitmap? What can I use?

cktlcmd: GIMP and paint.net are both free and are more than capable for simple jpg > bmp conversion.
However, even free-er than free, load a jpg into internet explorer, choose file > save as, and save as a .bmp. Voila
Diggia - I'm seeing you everywhere old friend! I only registered on your board the other day. I'm getting lost on how many boards I'm registered on, and how many apps I have to update for you guys. I'm spending these relatively quiet days doing updates on apps, one at a time I love your skins btw. Great stuff, great webpage.

Thanks very much! Didn't know I can do it this way.
I was visiting your site and saw VJBassHue. I wanted to ask how can I change the color, there was no explanation on your site.
Another question please, out of topic: How do you setup SmallMenu to show your desired folders or applications?

cktlcmd: VJBaseHue. Have a hunt around for ZeBoxx's posts/theory on the matter (also his enormous contributions in the Wiki).
VJBaseHue is, like most of my stuff, a command line tool.
If you need any help with command lines (I'm sure not!), check here:
http://vijay555support.host4phpbb.com/viewtopic.php?t=30
check out ZeBoxx's example shortcuts that come with VJBaseHue.
Then use his online chart, choose a colour, and edit the shortcuts.
eg
\program files\vijay555\vjbasehue\vjbasehue.exe 187
I think - from memory!

I'm using the Plus version, but basically you just point it towards a folder, containing subfolders or shortcuts to other folders, and it parses out a menu from there. Extremely customisable, too much so perhaps, but once I made the effort, I haven't changed my setup on both WM5 and Wm2003.

Yes, I got as far as this. I too bought the plus version after I read your recomendation about SmallMenu. I am glad I did. Basically my question was misunderstood. What I want to know is how can I change the format of small menu? I checked the settings in small menu and it has no options like the one showed on your picture from your above post. How can I make it look like your settings?
I was using the bitmap conversion to change the windows icon on the start menu using SmallMenu. I was successful to change the windows start icon to a Palm icon. Just playing around a bit.

Christian: sorry, I'm still not quite getting which bit you can't customise?
Do you mean like the folder icons, eg how I have a star for favorites? Or something else?

Yes, the folder icons, etc... How did you arrange it that way? SmallMenu has no check lists as to which applications would be allowed to be showed or suppressed.
Thanks for your patience.

Hey, thanks for your patience!
Ok, Assuming you're talking about my top level menu, !Favorites etc, I use the ! to ensure important folders come before any others. They're arranged alphabetically of course.
To get the icon in the menu, eg the star for favorites, you need an icon library in a dll or .exe.
10:
Make a shortcut (best perhaps with notepad the first time, after that use an explorer program) and write:
30#"\Windows\PHMShell32.dll,-173"
Save that into Icon.lnk.
Here I'm using the icon library that came with PHM Tools. Very useful.
Stick the Icon.lnk into any folder, and probably after a reboot, you'll have a star for your folder icon.
Goto 10
break;
Ok. So now you have nicely iconed folders, just arrange your subfolders appropriately, and SmallMenu will parse and cascade .lnks and subfolders into nice menus.

Thanks very much Vijay!

Just tap and hold the icon you want to change. Then tap the "Change Icon" and choose the icon set from the upper left corner button. That's it.

This link is of no help!! It only explains the mechanics behind it and tell you basically what you should do. Now, I am far from being a dummy. But, I have questions. 1, what imaging program do I use to make the files? 2, How do I mask each icon? 3, How do I fit all the icons on one file? I think the imaging program would be a break through. For me anyways. And a couple hints. Anyone, please.?

(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_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"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

now im going to add a program icon to it

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?

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 +

Updated - 9.1.08 ~ New MobileMatt HTC Home HHC Skin Pack ~ ZIP File added...

OK, after skinning the [email protected] out of Touch Commander, I have decided to give HTC Home a shot.
The CAB file includes all necessary files and will install to the default HHC directory's. I have also included the MobileMatt_Connection WM6 Theme.
Install;
HHC Home Customizer (Required)
Download the MobileMatt HTC_Home CAB file and transfer to device,
Click on CAB file and install to main memory (If HHC is installed on memory card, then install CAB file there),
Open HHC Home Customizer and choose MobileMatt_bg, MobileMatt_clock, and MobileMatt_icons,
Dont forget to load the MobileMatt_Connection WM6 Theme
I have only tested this out on my AT&T Tilt and can not insure it will work on other devices. Enjoy....

geat skin... thank you very much

Progress thus far;
Replaced indicator icons
Replaced tab icons
Changed tab background
Changed ADD icon
Changed REMOVE icon
Changed Sound tab background
Changed WM6 theme for better match

OK, after following drock214's (AT&T Forum) instructions, I have had success with customizing. (I now also have the Music Tab) The final HHC version would not allow this on the new AT&T Tilt 6.1 ROM for some reason. So far everything is working and have not experienced any problems as some other posters on the AT&T Forum have had.
I have also created my own MobileMatt HHC skin pack. (now all I need is to figure out how to make it a CAB file). Anyway I just copied over the skin files into the HHC Home Customizer / Files directory. (See screenshot)

OK, I think I have everything I need but have never created a CAB file. I haven't found a good step - by - step instructions of what I need to do.
What I would like to do is, have the cab install the three different file folders into the correct location in the HHC customizer. Can someone help with this or point me in the right direction. Thanks...

Check out WinCE CAB Manager, it's almost as easy as using explorer.
Also, a lot of your graphics seem to be off py a few pixels here and there. Most noticably the title bar for HTChome, and the tab buttons. And... what's up with the white blocks on the top of the clock digits ?

Thanks, I will try this out. Do I still need to make a .inf file or will this program do it to?

It makes an installable .cab file, no .inf's required as far as I'm aware.

snachez, thanks for your help... Can you explain what you mean "By a few pixels off" and as for the white blocks behind the digits, there is no rime or reason for it other than I was trying for a different look.

I can help create a .cab for you if you like. It wouldn't be any trouble for me.

Thanks, I think I've got it using WinCE CAB Manager and will upload it soon. It's working on my Tilt but as far as usability on other devices, I don't know.
Thanks again!

Cab file uploaded in first post....

Cool. I guess its personal taste.. too me it looked a little odd since you have such nice rounded clock lower half, the top white boxes looked a little out of place.
Also, maybe it was meant to be like this but I think this looks slighlty misplaced too.

I see what you mean.. I think this happened with the WM6 Theme. I had put a border on the outside of the theme and it just happen to line up that way. My released version does not use that theme. Thanks for the input.

Here are some screenshots of the theme with and without HTC Home. There is definitely something wrong having that border. Good catch.

Now that there has been a few downloads, is anyone that downloaded experiencing and problems with the CAB file? This was my first and was only able to test it on my Tilt. Thanks...

looking forward your next word
