Visibility of plugins when I want

[Guest stevewright]

How can I make the SMS plugin and the calender plugin only visible when they have something to show?

Other plugins, you can use state="noevent" visible="false" - how do I apply this to the SMS and Calander plugins?

I hate having "No upcoming appointments" and SMS(0) which can simply be implied by not showing anything on the screen at all, making it less cluttered.

You can't :cry:

unless someone rewrites the plugin :?

How about some kind of "if-then" loop?

If = 0 THEN

If > 0 THEN SMS ()

Any thoughts?

P.S. Also, are there XML help files (for syntax, commands etc) to be found anywhere on the web?

Homescreen XML doesn't support things like that.

The place to look for Homescreen syntax is MS WhitePaper
