hello everybody!
Is there any way to prompt more than one appointment on TF3D home page ? Thank you for your answers.
I'm also interested...
That would be awesome to have. I need to open my agenda often to see my next meeting if that could be shown on the TF3D tab that would save me quite some frustration through the day ))
This question and many others come up so frequently that I wonder whether HTC take note of things that should have been included in the first place; multi-appointments and tasks to name but only two!
Yeah you are right, HTC seems not to take any notes on their users comments. You saw this already with the requests for the HTC Home. Now with the TF3D it is the same thing. Working here on this forum gives you some nice insight of what is possible with TF3D. If I just take a look @ D-MAN's work I guess there are options here. I'm not a developer myself but seeing the work of others that gives me hope ;-)
So it is not really a comment to HTC but a request to the developers here @ XDA that would be able to create such a feature.
i want it so badly....
it is just not enough for me...it seems that only appointments in two days can be displayed on the home page....i wonder if a few more appointments(no matter how many days after)could appear so i don't have to get into the calendar page to check my upcoming appointment.
that is also what i am looking for... is that not possibe to be done for you pro's out there?

By now there is quite a few diffrent finger friendly hacks/apps for contacts, dialing, sms etc. but as far as I know there is still no finger friendly Calender hack. I often have to add a appointment to my calender and it would be great if it could be done with a few finger clicks
Something like a screen where you choose date and time, write a appointment text and choose yes/no to alarm.
I dont know if its only me who is missing such an app/hack. But i really think such an app would be very usefull.
And if someone makes such an app someday i will gladly donate a couple of beers
Though it turned out to be a tad too cumbersome for me personally, perhaps you could find some use in this Calendar alternative, called Date Lens. Here's the link: http://www.cs.umd.edu/hcil/fishcal/
If you feel like reading, the presentation that was made by one of Date Lens' developers to Bill Gates explains lots of the features.
Transcription is here; start reading from "BEN BEDERSON: Thanks, Bill."
Also, try this prog: DeveloperOne AGendaOne. It makes things easier for use with the thumb.

I'll be posting my "demo" soon
I've posted in the Clock forum with hardly a response. Is anyone addressing the basic issue with business use of TF3D? The Today screen, while attractive, is not well suited to the original purpose; to see mail, appointments, etc at one glace. It uses up so much room needlessly, that there is no room for appointments.
The clock is about twice as big as necessary. Missed calls are not so critical as to need an entire line. Then last is what needs to be first, the agenda. Room for one appointment isn't even close to what a business person needs; we need the bulk of our day at a glance. In this respect, the original MS Today screen was far better, primitive as it is.
The fix is easy in concept. A clock half the size, and dropping the Missed Calls section in favor or an notification icon or something similar would allow room for 3-4 agenda items, which is acceptable in most cases. The question is, does TF3D let one make these kinds of changes? Anyone?

'The fix is easy in concept' is the key words here...
In reality It's not easy...
personally I don't know why you opened a new thread on this subject.. you have already done/asked the same statement/question...
I agree with you.. I would also like to have more appointments, etc on the Home tab...
If you'll have a look around here in the forum you will see that there is research going on on the subject of altering the programming of manila files...
But needless to say It's not easy! (or there would be more changing, more tabs, more of everything in TF3D)
Do a search about it... maybe you can contribute with your knowledge and programming experience?
Yes, I do understand that concept is different than implementation.
It is a new thread because clock design is not the primary topic, it is a means to an end. Also, because I had received no response previous to yours here. Thank you.

As a frequent RSS user I still didn't find an RSS Reader which uses the snappy interface and touch friendly buttons of TF3D. So I created some screens hoping an enthusiastic developer feels challenged to create an ultimate RSS reader for TF3D.
Some requirements should be:
Import feeds from OPML file and/or sync with Google Reader
Update All, Update Channel or update Feed seperately (conveniant when using roaming abroad)
Auto update (every .. minutes/hours/days) and notify when new items arrive
... And more
A great wish would be to add the program in the tab structure in TouchFlo.
So the big question is: Which developer feels the urge to create this baby????
If someone feels this urge, I will make more screens, but I first want to know if there's somebody out there who wants to help me...
Hmm that's a good idea, especially love the "sync with google reader" part, browsing google reader on opera mobile is just plain madness.!
Love to see this becoming a real program! Hope someone will help you out nielsepiels!
yeah ! good idea !
Hi,
I'm waiting for it....
BYE, Bobo
hopefully it will become true..i know people in this forum are genius!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Really good idea!!!

Got my vote too - I could offer my services beta testing on my AT&T Fuze - I would definitely donate for this - Heck, I'll give someone a few bucks as soon as i see a beta!
same.. i would def donate some money for this, was thinking of something like this the other night.
anythings better than RSS Hub - buggy as hell with its constant freezes
maybe this is the right place to post it.......i would love to develop such an application (and other tf3d plugins) but i didnt find any documentation on tf3d development so far......the only thread where someone asked for a documentation is only available in google-cache with no answer posted....
maybe you guys or someone who reads this thread do know where to find tf3d-dev-docs...
thx!

TF3D is developed in Lua. D-MAN666 is one of the few guys who knows how to edit TF3D and develop TF3D applications, like his calendar application.
@ Nielsepiels & Mandragore: THX!!
wow, this looks cool. would be awesome if you could code this app. and props to the thread starter, nice screens!
I think we need more threads like this. that way we get more finger friendly and nice looking apps!
Hi guys , i'm sure it's a very useful idea.
I'm thinking about coding this (i'am learning on mobile coding) , waiting for any suggestion , so let's go for making this cool stuff.
ps: sorry for my bad english ;-)
Came across this thread and thought it was worth reviving
There was a thread about this a long long time ago, but I think people just forgot about it. Its such a good idea - and yet HTC havent even mentioned any RSS enhancements for the new version of TF3D on Diamond2, etc :s. I hope someone can make this - they would definately get a donation from me for it
Upping this to see if there are any developments.
I wonder if the email tab on TF3D can be "tweaked" to receive RSS headlines instead of sending and receiving from an email account?
I'm going to try and found out how that tabs is put together it might offer some ideas.
I'd love to be able to flick through the headlines/stories from my favourite feeds like you do with text messages or even better have a "ticker" running across the screen with the latest news..... that would be cool
ok i have an idea for the TF3D and i was wondering if it's possible to develop it to work on the TF3d
it's a TF3D tab that give you the ability to see Quotes on the tab and the ability to but the Quotes in it
and after cretin time the quote will change to a different one
it will be a motivation thing specially once you open your phone and the first thing you see is the Quotes tab in TF3D
is there any one that can do this or is it still we don't have the ability to make new Tabs for the TF3D
what do you think?
thanks for all XDA members
a better idea is to have a scrolling RSS feed. you want a quote of the day, just add the site there and you will be good to go
of course the biggest trick here is to convince developers to start working on something
WM 6.5 has really opened the doors for some nice development for panels. Much like the existing Touch Flo 3D, panels can be developed to show your favorite....well anything. Already great work on weather, fave people, opera, twitter, facebook, ms office, programs, settings...colors, themes...etc!!!
One of the things I love most about TF3D is the stocks tab. I have started to tinker with a stocks panel for Titanium, but wanted to get a tab started for any who may have input, or have begun development themselves. I have been playing around with the cprs, bronzeres, and colors for some time, but this is my first past at creating a new panel from scratch. The good news for me is many have laid some tremendous groundwork to help make this an easier process.
My plan is to link the existing msn finance widget in 6.5 to the panel. The plan is to show the details of each stock pick from msn widget to the titanium custom panel. I am in the process of mocking something up just to post what I am thinking soon.
Moderators...gods of xda...please keep me honest as I am not actually posting any dev just yet. If I am out of line, please accept my apology in advance and shut me down, but kindly please don't lock me out.
Thanks....more to come!

If I knew where to pull data from seperate program I would try this. Maybe in the next week or 2. Does anyone else wanna jump this one?
+1 for stock widget
instead of msn money should be better using yahoo finance, by far more complete... titaniumweather use mortscript to fetch accuweater data, will be possible make this widget same way?

This might work if you set it up like Showaco is doing his radar for TitaniumWeather.

i am with you here man... i would give away TF3d if I can get a stocks plugin for WM6.5 good idea.... great idea...
There is a FRENCH stock titanium panel.
You can analyze and modify this for your convenience.
Go to http://www.jmlacou.com/wpJML/?p=15
Is there any update on the app?
With the current advancements in plugin developments, this would actually be an easy one to make. it's just a matter of reading rss feeds from stock websites. I'll see if i can make some time next week and look into this.

The French version looks perfect. I only know basic French words. I poked around on the site some and I cant understand. I am going to try a translator or a friend who knows French. Does anyone have any pointers?
