  2. Just testing this out on my new Pointsense suite, fits a lot better on my VGA HTC diamond set as not full screen...a few problems

    I understand that a few buttons dont work.
    notifications fly in from top so fast I cant read them
    is there a settings button anywhere

    Hi Zenkinz,

    First thanks a lot for making this cool home applet, I really like it and feel it very complementary with other applets :)

    I've encountered a bug where my next appointments wouldn't appear in the next event window
    , binary in post 180 (end of page 6) mentioned something similar. So as a crazy coder, I started looking through your code (thanks again for the great work) and tried to fix this particular point ... so I and ended up modifying the GetNextEvent method:


    void GetNextEvent()
    {
    ...
    String filter;
    //Reference used for formatting restriction strings
    //http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms860784.aspx
    filter = "[AllDayEvent] = 0 AND [Start] > \"{Now}\" AND [Start] <= \"{End}\"";

    dt.Now();
    dt.AddMinutes(5);

    String tmp;
    tmp = dt.ToRegionalDateString("Short");
    tmp += " ";
    tmp += dt.ToRegionalTimeString("NoSeconds");
    filter.Replace("{Now}", tmp);

    dt.AddDays(7);
    tmp = dt.ToRegionalDateString("Short");
    tmp += " ";
    tmp += dt.ToRegionalTimeString("NoSeconds");

    filter.Replace("{End}", tmp);

    tbl.SetRestriction(filter);

    ...
    }
    }

    Basically I used locale formatted date string for the restriction filter instead of using variant time representation. I strongly suspect that this bug only occurs on non english us roms (I'm using a french rom btw) so you may have never encountered it.

    Anyways, it's up to you to decide if you wish to integrate this in your next release.
    Also I think I could help you fixing the known bug #10, just tell me

    Hope that helps,
    Alexandre

    我下载安装完成提示我“这是应用于一个windows版的程序,在这个版本windows程序中可能运行不正常”,结果运行时出现错误,转换为homecube时会死机,只能按“reset"才能重新启动,要怎么解决呢?

    First, I want to say that I love this applett. The notifications are great and it is laid out very well. There are just a few things I would like to see added in the next release. Here is my list In order of most wanted:

    1: I wish the sms notification would jump you into the reply mode of windows sms and when the ok is hit, return to the home page, just like the sms applett does. This would reduce the number of clicks to get back to the home page. Or, if it could just jump over to the sms applett when pressed that would be ok as well.
    2. I realy wish that there was a way to have 4 or 5 customizable launch buttons on the home page. What would be perfect is if the communication area could be toggled with the application launch area.
    3. When pressing the clock, it would be nice if it could launch a different clock program like galarm.

    Just a few suggestions to make this applett better than it already is.

    Thanks again.

    Hi, I am trying to code a custom UI (NOT an applet) and want a Bluetooth button like yours (Shows state, click to change state).

    So I tried ripping your code out of HomeCube as a test, but it does not seem to be working :(

    Did you write this code yourself? If not, where did you get the code from?
    Is there any chance you could help me get mine working? I am trying to add the BT button to screenhome.cs so it is part of the main UI.

    TIA

    You did a very nice job with this applet and it has the best flip clock animation out of any of them. I really like all of the features except for the application bar at the bottom. It is a bit bothersome in that it does not scroll very well. Is there a way to comment out this application bar in the code? Thanks.

    I received an email and when I click the notification to view it it takes me to outlook. I am using Hotmail.Is there any way I can get this to redirect to my hotmail account on the phone instead of the outlook one?

    Many thanks to the dev for this great applet - it is everything i need for a homescreen, and it works nicely on my xperia.

    Some feedback. Please take this simply as constructive criticism; a few very minor details...

    - The flipclock animation is a little slow/buggy. I´d actually prefer no animation over jumpy animation. Or a plain clock altogether.

    - The notification window: sometimes, it cuts itself off so that the bottom border and a few pixels above it does not show. It can happen when you click to expand/collapse it. This is a visual bug that does not look good.

    - i second a previous poster´s wish for the alarm: it would be very nice to be able to link it to an alarm app of the user´s preference (the built-in alarm truly sucks, and i don´t know anyone that would use it over, for example, galarm).

    Some aesthetical considerations:
    - The event / notification window should have the same pixel width as EITHER the flipclock OR the app buttons.
    - The alarm hotspot text is really not necessary, and just adds clutter to the display. More elegant to simply tap the clock itself to bring up the alarm app. You could simply keep only the tiny clock symbol to indicate when an alarm is active.

    These two items may be trivial, but taking care of them will give the applet a more polished look.

    Finally, i´m not here to complain, but to say thank you! Let me add that if i can contribute in any useful way, i will be more than happy to (i am a professional graphics designer). Let me know.

    - tm

    Looking good - however I have an issue with the icon ribbon as the battery one goes to "CSD Line Type" and the Internet one does nothing. Also clock is very big and in portrait the Alarm icon is on top of the Next Event box when it is minimised or maximised.

    Looks great. But the Event Notification does not show next Today Event but the following event which is next week. Is there any way to fix that, to see the really next event?
