Guest efjay Posted July 19, 2004 Report Posted July 19, 2004 Hi, im looking for some advice on how to create a homescreen, I want to use powercalendar for tasks and calendar management. How do I create a homescreen that will show active tasks and appointments and when either is selected will open powercalendar? I tried RJTasks to start but cant find where its put its homescreen. I want to base the homescreen on the default windows one. Im using an E200 with imate rom. thanks for any advise
Guest drblow Posted July 20, 2004 Report Posted July 20, 2004 em... basically, you cant! unfortunately the develope one calendar plugin never materialised, so it wouldnt be possible to display tasksappts that link to power calendar. what you can do is use the altogethe better oxios todo list, with their plugin to display tasks. you could set up a shortcut from the homescreen to power calendar using the rjshortcuts plugin.

Guest efjay Posted July 20, 2004 Report Posted July 20, 2004 Thanks for replying, thing is i only need one application for tasks as the basic function in power calendar is sufficient so i would probably not buy both apps. I tried rftasks which says you can use it with any application but didnt seem to install on my e200, couldnt find anything after searching. Is there no other calendar plugin I could use? Also can anyone point me to where i can learn to write xml for my own homescreen?
Guest drblow Posted July 20, 2004 Report Posted July 20, 2004 afaik there are no other calendar plugins. to get into xml coding, take a theme you like & open up the xml page. you'll quickly learn what effect you create by changing things. i posted a beginners guide to xml a while ago. you'll find it by a search.

Guest efjay Posted July 20, 2004 Report Posted July 20, 2004 thanks again, could anyone help on this, how do you install rjtasks and rjshortcut on an e200? I have installed both but dont have the sample homescreens or xml to try and edit.
Guest drblow Posted July 20, 2004 Report Posted July 20, 2004 Do the xml's not load into the StorageApplication DataHome folder? Either that, or there should be a sample xml in the zip files?
Guest efjay Posted July 20, 2004 Report Posted July 20, 2004 no, they dont install to the home folder but there is a sample xml in the rjshortcut zip, ill look at that, rjtasks just has an exe but looking again at his site i think ive found the xml, ill see if i can make sense of it, thanks
Guest RemyJ Posted July 21, 2004 Report Posted July 21, 2004 Just saw this thread... Let me know if you still have problems.
Guest efjay Posted July 21, 2004 Report Posted July 21, 2004 Hi RemyJ thanks for the offer, i'm trying to understand the xml by looking at your samples and playing with them, i'll give a shout when I get stuck (in 5 mins) :P
Guest efjay Posted July 21, 2004 Report Posted July 21, 2004 Hi RemyJ I have a question on RJTasks, I have only todays tasks displaying, can it display the task subject and scroll the subjects if there is more than one just like the Oxios plugin? Thanks Edit: is there also a way to hide the plugin if there are no tasks, thanks
Guest RemyJ Posted July 21, 2004 Report Posted July 21, 2004 Sorry, no on the first question and it's not really feasable at this time. As for hiding it when there are no tasks, it doesn't now but I may be able to add it. Let me take a look and get back to you.
Guest efjay Posted July 22, 2004 Report Posted July 22, 2004 Thanks RemyJ, look forward to your reply.
