I'm pretty sure it only runs on 2003 due to some code lines

Which lines? Is there no way to get them ported?

Runs very well (WM2003). Setting the time is a bit getting used to. I'm new with smartphones so can't think of a better way right now. Guess I have to learn to edit xml files to make the plugin show on other homescreens.

Nice plugin, for an alpha release it's great. Compliments.

I'm using an interface to lookup system colors (like COLOR_HOMETEXT) out of the XML file which is only available since 2003.

I am not sure yet how to make that work in 2002.

The other code might be compatible.

Works great on my E200! Was looking for this since I don't like the existing plugin either. I think the way you've chosen to set the alarm is great, it scrolls just fast enough through the numbers and the "right=mins, left=hours" is plain genious!

Best Regards and THANK YOU!

The excicting alarmplugin did not work under 2003 when you moved menus/shortcuts around, as it seems to use key emulation. This one is much better. Disadvantage is that you need to go round by numbers if you want the alarm time to be reversed!
Not possible to use joystick afterpressing up.down for numbere and sideways for hours or min. and to finish press again?

Sorry I didnt really get what you mean. What do you mean by "alarm time to be reversed"?

btw unfortunately there is only three actions (joystick press, left, right) which I can use... up / down is used by windows for navigating between the plugins

Thanks

if you want to go from 9:57 to 9:56 it is 59 minutes forward instead 1 reversed. I did not know if the possibility after pressing you can block use off up./down from plugins till pressing again. seems not according you.

Great plugin. Works very well on my Audiovox SVT 5600.

Two Minor Issues:
1. When the plugin is initially loaded in the home screen it's blank, until you navigate to it the first time.

2. Outside of your home.xml sample the background highlight bar (the orange background in the screenshot above) does not appear. Instead the text is simply shown in the highlight colour.

Other plugins I have recognize the below tag. I'm guessing yours currently does not:




Thanks for the really utilitarian plugin. Hope you continue to refine it!

Got you. Unfortunately it's not possible (at least to my knowledge).

1. is a known issue. I don't really know why it happens, but it's very minor.
2. I recognized that when I built the sample homescreen (thats why it is in the default section :roll: ). Actually it should pick that up, I must have a look what I did wrong there.

Thanks for contributing.

Setting background options for plugin individually and background images should work now.

Brilliant!

Application auto reset. I cycled my home-screen and there it was. Very cool. Everything I want in an alarm plugin. Simple and sweet.

Thanks lots!

OK, I feel really stupid. What am I doing wrong? When I download this file to my PC it thinks it's a zip file. I don't know how to get it installed, but would love to try it out. An easy to use alarm is something I've been looking for on my MPx 220.

Thanks, dlogan1

DocBru, a simply superb plugin... have been looking for a simple alarm plugin for a while. This one fits the bill nicely.

Keep up the great work.

[DocBru]

YOu need to install it directly on the smartphone.
Just push it to somewhere on the phone e.g. /temp
Than execute the file on the phone by file manager or internet explorer.

Thanks
Bruno

This seems to be doing odd things to my Homescreen

If I put a bgcolour="#CC9900" (or any other value, other than "transparent") it seems to screw up the homescreen (removing the background image and the colour scheme)

So this works:

<plugin clsid="{61868840-7761-11D9-9669-0800200C9A66}" height="20">
<label state="alarmon">
<format state="unselected" halign="right" bgcolor="transparent" fgcolor="#CC9900" font-weight="bold" font-size="13" />
<format state="selected" halign="right" bgcolor="transparent" fgcolor="#FFFFFF" font-weight="bold" font-size="13" />
<text lang="0x0409" y="16" x="0" width="72"><alarmTime/></text>
</label>
</plugin>

But this doesn't:

<plugin clsid="{61868840-7761-11D9-9669-0800200C9A66}" height="20">
<label state="alarmon">
<format state="unselected" halign="right" bgcolor="#CC9900" fgcolor="#FFFFFF" font-weight="bold" font-size="13" />
<format state="selected" halign="right" bgcolor="#CC9900" fgcolor="#000000" font-weight="bold" font-size="13" />
<text lang="0x0409" y="16" x="0" width="72"><alarmTime/></text>
</label>
</plugin>

It's a great plugin though!
Lots of trial and error involved, but the end result is very cool!

[DocBru]

Sorry, background settings are not supported for single label elements... only for the whole plugin. I wonder if that's a bug or intention :roll: I know that I extended the label thing a bit (by the state)

I tried installing this to my storage card and phone - i clicked on the .cab file in File Manager. Nothing new appears on my home screen after several power cycles.

How can I get this on my home screen?

I'm using "Windows Default" as my home screen.

Thanks

[encece]

Switch to the homescreen that is installed during installation (in Settings>HomeScreen). Or you can add the sample code to any other homescreen.

[DocBru]

Plugins have to be integrated into homescreens.
To test it you can just switch your homescreen to my example via the settings menu.

To use it in "Windows Default", you would have to modify the XML settings of this (I dont know if the standard windows screens can be modified at all)? If you don't have the necessary knowledge, you might want to download a homescreen which uses my plugin, I'm aware of two yet:

I am using home screen by rey of airfagev.com "Technet-MSDN with Clock". Can I have the alarm plugin there? It would complete the homescreen for sure.
