Viewing appointments X days henceforth- today screen?

Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone knew if there is a way to view appointments from a certain amounts of days from the current on the today screen.
I.e. I would like to view all appointments on the today screen that are due in the next three days all at once for example.
Thanks.

In the Today options, select Calendar and press the Options button. Select 'Show Upcoming appointments' instead of the default 'Show next Appointment'.
A better alternative would be to install the Calendar+ FREE today plug-in. This allows many customisations like font color, number of days to display, etc. Here's the link to download it: http://www.pocketpcfreewares.com/en/index.php?soft=108
Unless you want to go for the commercial Pocket Breeze of course!

Nice one KTA- Calendar plus is a handy plugin- just what I needed.
Thanks.

Hi sh500,
as an alternative, have a look at tAgenda. I also used Calendar+ for quite some time, but after trying tAgenda, I deinstalled Calendar+.
In my opinion, tAgenda is much more comfortable because it's much more customisable and has more options (Layout, colors, style, shows appointments and todos, and so on).
HTH,
BGK

BGK,
I've downloaded tAgenda- will see if it benefits me over Calendar+

How to Stop Calendar text wrapping on Today Screen?

Anybody know if it is possible to stop Appointments in the Calendar from "Word wrapping" on the Today screen?
I want to fit more appointments on the Today screen and don't want to add any third party software at all - don't like addditional Today plug-ins, been there, done that, compromises the machine in many ways!
Thanks.

Can the HTC Home plugin only show the clock?

Hi everyone,
I was just wondering if there is a way to make the HTC Home plugin only show the clock, like a registry edit or something? The thing is I use ultimate launch, and I dont need the new sms and missed call tabs, and the other tabs below with weather etc. They're just using space. I tried other home plugins that only have a clock, but I could not customize them the way I like (I really like the diamond clocks for HTC Home).
I've tried searching the forums (alot) for an answer, but I just could'nt find any. So sorry if this has been answered before!
Thanks

no registre... , easy manipulation
look

I want to remove the tabs completely, so I get the space to other plugins, if it's possible. Or another plugin that is a clock only that I can customize the same way as the HTC Home plugin clock.
I have also tried unchecking all the tabs in the menu you show me here, but I still get the four standard tabs (Home, weather, app launcher & profiles). Even edited the tab registry string, but they're still there.

Try this. I've use it and it's quite simple. In the today items don't choose htc home and use the pdc clock instead.

Thank you! But I allready tried it and I don't think I can customize it the way I want to.
When it comes to my question about removing all the tabs from the HTC Home plugin, I kind of figured out myself that it was pretty stupid. Since the home tab in the HTC Home plugin -IS- the clock, I now understand it's impossible to remove it and still have the clock.
But if anyone has a clock plugin that you can customize the same way as the HTC Home plugin clock, please post!

well what some people do is use the samsung clock instead of the htc home clock...

Try this link, it isn't HTC Home but the clock looks similar, but as far as I know you cannot customize it...

What can be shown on Homescreen of the HD?

Hi Folks,
i´ve just ordered my Touch HD, and i hope it will come to me before Santa (end of November i guess).
My question is: what can be seen on the homescreen of the HD? Today i use my good old friend, the wizard100. On the Todayscreen i have full Battery and Storage information, Weatherforecast for 4 Days, and calendar appointments showing up to 3 days. Also a today-link for tomtom. Is TF3D able to show this too? I need to see all these things on just one quick view. How customizable is TF3D?

Of coz u can.
Just install the softwares.

Which softwares in particular are you referring to?

My question was how many things is TF3D able to do without any external software. On my Wizard 100 i´ve installed following software: SPB Weather, SBSH Phoneweaver, SPB Time, Calendar+ , DeviceLock, Battrey Status nad TomTom. Except Tomtom i hope that TF3D could show me things like weather,Appointments and other things without installing other software. I like to use the HTC Homescreen, but i dont know how many information it is able to show?

Afaik it has the same home screen as the Diamond but probably with a little more info because of the added screen height. The diamond home screen shows clock, missed call status and first next calendar item.

And this is what i wanted to know: Do you think the HD would show more informations than the normal TF3D from f.e. the Diamond? This must be an complete different TF3D, or not?

It's not completely different, it is in fact rather similar. It has the same tabs bar the stock tab, and most tabs just show a little more info to complement to extra screen height. Also, it has very nice transitions between FLO/programs, much like the iPhone zoom effect.
Same trick is applied on the HD to make it 'feel' more slick and responsive.
Anyway, if you look at the French video on YouTube you will catch a glimpse of many of the tabs, including the home tab. It shows exactly the same stuff as on the Diamond, except I am guessing it will show more upcoming calendar events in the bottom.

You have a choice between TouchFlo3D or the normal Windows Mobile that you used to.
What you have on it will depend what Apps you like, its like your old PDA / PDA Phone. In other words, almost anything.

If you are just talking about the homescreen itself, than you get to see the same thing like on the touch diamond but when you scroll down, the list will be much longer so you can see more appointments. which is a good thing
oh and in the case you didn't know:
there is also a new "customize tabs: rearrange and remove tabs" setting !!

Todo's on front screen?

I am looking to buy the TD2 in the next 3 weeks and have a question regarding the touch flo interface
Can you display your upcoming/overdue todo's on the front screen as well as appointments?

Yes you can if you don't use TF3D. In the normal today screen, you can install a plugin called TodayAgenda (google for it) and that allows you to display and edit your Todo list. It's fantastic!
Unfortunately TF3D is not customizable except to remove or reorder its tabs. It does not work with Today screen plugins.

Thanks Jim
I knew I could display them without TF3D as I currently have PocketBreeze on my today screen of my current phone but really like the TF3D interface so I dont have to keep pulling out the stylus to do day to day stuff with the phone.
Are the ToDo's viewable from any of the tabs?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Please tell me how can you reorder the tabs.
I've been looking for this option and I haven't found anything yet.
Searching in this forum revealed only an old application for the "old" Diamond and old Manila.

Go to Settings, and click on Customize Tabs.
You can then untick ones you do not want to appear, and drag others into the order you want.

Thank you!
I've already solved this problem.
When you go to "Customize Tabs" there is a text on top of the page: "Drag Items to rearrange".
I must be blind but I didn't see that. The text is as big as my head but I didn't see it.
Dummy me …
That's what's happening when the interface is too user friendly

but... the items on the agenda do show up on the today screen.. I have a TD2 with TESS essentials ROM (WM 6.1 Manila 2.1), and the items that I have on my calendar do show up on the today screen as one line indicators.. but only when it's the day they are due...
