Carry forward Calendar items - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

Does anyone know if it is possible to enter items in the Calendar and have them Carry Forward and appear as reminders each day until they are acted upon? This was possible with The DateBook program for Palms where items could be entered as "Floating Events".
I'm using Touch Pro2 with Spb shell 3.5
Thanks.

incorporating sbp into tf3d

ok guys I just got my hd a few days ago.
I had an att tilt before and used spb suite with it.
I like the look of TF3d but it is not much function.
Can any one figure out a way of incorporating spb diary into TF3d.
thanks
I too am a fan of the Spb suite. I have successly incorportated it by using SecondToday to switch to it. I used Advanced Config to reprogramme the left-hand softkey to SecondToday (I initally programmed the PDA to switch to Spb Diary when clicking on Calendar on the home-page, but found this too clumsy to use, and much prefer switching to it from the left-hand softkey).
When switching to SecondToday, click and hold on any blank part of the screen to enter set-up. I have configured this just to show Spb Diary filling the whole screen. I can access the rest of the Spb function from the right-hand softkey.
I find this whole arrangement works really well.
For Spb fans, note that the new updated Weather program also runs as a stand-alone program, and so can be accessed directly from TF3D. This provides a much more accurate forecast than the AccuWeather page.

Passwording SMS Folder in TF3D

Afternoon,
I'm looking for a (preferably freeware) application that password protects SMS (and perhaps email) folders on the HD whilst using the TF3D interface.
I'm using Dutty's 1.8 ROM and like the TF3D interface (esp the calendar) so don't really want to go to the standard WM6.1 GUI, although I know there are programs that enable this feature if you choose to use this interface.
Is anyone able to offer any suggestions?
Thanks for the help.
No joy then!
have a look on this post...
don't know if it's what you want.

Ok
Thanks.
What i've done is removed the "SMS" and "Mail" tabs from TF3D
This means that you use the exact same SMS setup as if TF3d is disabled.
What would be good would be if it was possible to make the "SMS" tab link directly to the account selection page, meaning there was no message preview envelope, as even with Eye on Privacy installed, you can still read messages in TF3d, with a password prompt only occurring when you enter the windows messaging bit.

Tf3d manilla questions

I came from a 6800 and had it just about perfect for me. The TP2 is my first time using TF3D. Is Manilla basically custom versions of TF3D?
I was also using many SPB apps. Phone suite, Pocket Plus to name a few. Pocket Informant for my calendar. Will I still be able to use these with TF3D?
The widgets are like add-ons to get it the way you want?
"Manila" is the codename for TF3D. Basically these terms are often interchangeable.
TF3D is essentially a Today Screen plugin. If you have it enabled, you will not be able to see other Today Screen plugins. So, Phone Suite will work but you won't be able to easily access it's settings. Pocket Plus would not be very useful if TF3D is enabled. Not sure about Pocket Informant and how it integrates into the default Calendar app, so I'll let others get into that.
Not sure about your last query about widgets...

PLEASE is there a small monthly calendar display???

Is there ANY where I can find a way to display a small calendar of the month on the TODAY screen??
I see small analog clocks by the hundreds. But not ONE little 31 day calendar anywhere.
It would be great to have an analog clock AND the month displayed maybe with holidays highlighted,
and a click-able appointment maker when you 'touch' the day.

Thank U (x) 100 for any help!
Why would this be necessary when we already have the calendar tab?
Use Outlook to insert your country's public hoildays.
If you want quick access to this tab, just tap on the "Calendar" link under "Call History" on your home tab. Or you can just position the calendar tab as one of the first 5 tabs so that you can just tap on it on the slider bar.
I am too lazy to have to press a tab to do that.
That and I want to be able to see both the calendar
and other screen items at the same time.
I COULD make a background pic that shows a 'static' month but...
gee... it's a computer... I'm not smart enough to program a cool
dynamic calendar myself though.
RLCalendar will do what you want and is freeware.
It will display a calendar is all no holidays highlighted and no clicking on it for anything but it will show a monthly calendar.

Thx but I have installed both the rlCalendar CAB AND the rlToday CAB on
my touch pro 2 and I can not see either app in programs or settings
even after rebooting.

RLCalendar will only work with the old Today screen of WM 5-6.1 it won't work for WM6.5 after installing the cab you have to go to settings>today and turn it on and configure how big or small you want it.

Yep. I got that; WM 6.1 on this Verizon TP2.
When I open Today->Programs I see no rl-anything, rlToday or rlCalendar.
But when I open Today->Settings->System->Remove Programs, they are
displayed and listed in there:
"rotlaus Software rlToday" & "rlSoft rlCalendar" are in the 'list' of removable programs.
However when I go to Today->Settings->Personal->Today->Items and look at all the items I can turn on...
I see no items on the list that read rlToday or Today or rlCalendar or rlSoft or anything like these programs.
Just the normal items like TouchFLO 3D, Messaging, Device Lock, etc. etc.
I appreciate the help you are trying to give. I think I've finally found a device that validates
my dumb as a rock persona.
Hmm weird, I haven't tried it with WM 6.5 since I use SPB Mobile Shell and it has a nice calendar widget. Might give it a shot this weekend for you and see if I can get RLCalendar to work.

Don't do. I appreciate the thought and effort. But don't just for me please.
I have loaded a number of 'today' add-ins ( and uninstalled them ) when
they screw with my display res. or pixel widths or something.
Not worth it.
I downloaded the 'trial' SPB Shell program and calendar and I will play with that
thank you.
Maybe somebody else has fought this rlProgram wheel and will add feedback.
Thx again.

[REQ] Tasks on Sense 2.1/2.5 home tab?

I know custom tabs for Manila has been discussed many times before, including one for tasks. But my question is different - is there a way to add tasks on home tab? Like replacing the call history or calendar entries. That's the only thing I've always missed in Manila - seeing if I have any active/due tasks right after I unlock my screen.
None interested?!
I'm definitely interested! I have no idea how to do it but I would love to see it. I've thought about this many times.
Well, obviously it makes only two of us. It seems is either unwanted and/or impossible..
+1 pls.
Sorry I have no clue how to do this
Yup, +1 here, makes 4.......
I don't know of a possibility to add tasks, but you can use this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=602221
You can place a today plugin, like TodayAgenda or some other Tasks app. to cover up for example the calendar part on the home screen. Or you can add it to the Operator tab.

This is actually pretty straight forward if you follow the steps correctly. This is the way I did it to put messaging on the home screen.
Install the 2D TodayPage cab
Stop TouchFlo (Start > Setting > Home > Items and unselect TouchFlo)
Soft reset (may not be necessary but better in my mind)
Run M2Dtp config from programs page
Press and hold the red area next to plugins lable
Select Tasks (or whichever you want)
Leave Window at Window_00
Set x=10 y=240 w=220 h=60
Choose M2D widget page (Home)
press apply
press menu
press OK
Start TouchFlo (Start > Setting > Home > Items and select TouchFlo)
Switch to another tab then back to home and it should be there.
NOTE: You may need to experiment with the X (Left) ,Y (Top),W (Width), and H (Height) but they should place your plugin right after the calendar
How about Sense2.5.1922
Yeah.. well, I am more interested in latest Manila 3D - Sense 2.1/2.5. Apologies for not specifying that. Adding it to the title.
I change the right soft-key of the Home tab in my Sense 2.1 to "Tasks"..
So, if I want to see my tasks, I just tap the right soft-key..
I would also really like to get Outlook Tasks incorporated into Sense!
As part of the 'home tab', the 'calendar tab' or as a separate 'tasks tab'; either, some or all are fine with me ;-)
It surprises me that Microsoft has downplayed Outlook Tasks in WinMo. In Outlook it is easily accessible and a really useful tool for 'appointments or To-Do's that are not strictly time-specific'. That at least is how I use tasks.
Therefore it is really annoying that you have to open a separate app (either MS' own or something like pTasks) to access them in WinMo.
To have Outlook Tasks show up in the calendar I have to use a full-blown program like Pocket Informant.
It's also strange to me that HTC has overlooked the incorporation of Outlook Tasks in their otherwise excellent Sense-UI!
I'm even surprised that the great programmers frequenting this fine forum seemingly does not think that Outlook Tasks is worth incorporating into Sense.
Apart from the ease of access that comes with incorporation into Sense it would also enhance the general 'user experience' to be able to access Outlook Tasks in the same UI that lets you access the other Outlook-functions like mail and calendar!
Hopefully someone will recognize this 'oversight' and remedy the situation soon ;o)
Does anybody know how to make Tasks beeing displayed on home tab? (the way appointments and other calendar entries are)
Shortcut to Tasks is not the way out - it would be perfect to have 'to do list' always on, under the clock

Hello!
It seems what you are using lua scripting in your mod? Can you create mod with tasks instead of appointments?
I'm not the only one who dreaming about such mod . There are many people using tasks without any appointments...
Best regards and sorry for my English.

I'll try to add it.
If it's possible it will be in a future version.

Argg, I really need tasks on home page.
I'm about to remove Sense from my device and go back to WM today screen just because I can see tasks...
I agree to the best solution I found is installing pTask and make shortcut on the homescreen.
