[updated: 5/31]Titanium Plugin: Taskanium

Credits first , thanks to drkfngthdragnlrd for his titanium tutorial & appstar for his titanium installer! Amazing work guys! Special thanks to benven for being a very patient beta tester.

Edit 5/31: Fixed the recurring task bug, now the application doesn't use State & Notification Broker but hooks into Outlook Interop. This means that the application cannot rely on SNB to start itself and hence places a shortcut in windows\startup folder. The task counter now only displays the tasks that are due today instead of all tasks (Pages placement is defined for QVGA only). This version does not require any soft-reset post install/uninstall.

Edit 5/23: Should support most of the resolutions now. If you are on some other resolution than QVGA, extract the default.plg file from default.plg.zip and replace the plg within taskanium.zip with this one before installing. I haven't been able to test the layout for other resolutions so bug reports are welcome.


Edit 5/23: Now with task counter goodness in condensed mode for QVGA in portrait mode! Why only QVGA? Because, it takes a lot of hit and trial to get the placement of the counter and requires good amount of tweaking to show it correctly & since I don't have a VGA/WVGA device; I couldn't really take it up. If you wish you can modify the default.plg file of 0.4b to include the placement of "Pages" counter in the Condensed mode for your resolution before installing 0.4b.


Taskanium is a simple Titanium (WM 6.5) plugin which displays the list of active tasks within the titaniun plugin and allows you to

1. add a new task
2. open the active task by clicking
3. mark the task as complete (right soft-key)


Pre-requisites
1) WM 6.5 with titanium enabled (obviously!).
2) .net CF 2.0 or higher.

Add a task


Installation:
Currently, there is no cab file for installation (cause I am really tired and it's late night!), the installation is straightforward:
1) unzip the zip file within \program files\taskanium (the path is hard-wired, so unzipping it somewhere else would not work*).
2) click on taskaniumInstall file (if you don't see any error messages it means the installation was successful). * taskaniumInstaller is just a lnk file, if you know how to modify it; you can modify it to point to some other installation folder (along with taskaniumUninstall). The link files are the only place where the path is hard-wired, rest all should work.
3) soft-reset (yes, you have to else you will only see "add a new task" in titanium).

Uninstallation:
1) Click on taskaniumUnInstall.
2) delete the entire taskanium folder
3) soft-reset (required again).

The current location in plg for this plugin is set to 2.

KNOWN ISSUES:
1) completing a recurring task doesn't refresh the plugin unless you add/remove a simple task. I still haven't been able to figure out why
2) Uninstallation at times still keeps taskanium.exe running even after a reset (again, don't really know why), the work around for now is to delete the entire taskanium folder after running taskaniumUninstall & before soft-resetting.

History
5/15/09: 0.1 Beta.
Change log: First version.
-----------------------
5/16/09: 0.2 Beta
Change log: Flushed the keys in installation, which should hopefully fix the issue with plugin not persisting post soft-reset.
-------------------------------------------------------
5/17/09: 0.2 RC
Change log: Defined the plg file based on layout of Appstar's favPeople to support different resolutions (haven't been able to test it myself as I only have a QVGA phone, bug reports are welcome).
-------------------------------------------
5/17/09: 0.3
Change log:Fixed the max number of pages to 15 (+2), in case there are more than 15 tasks, the last page displays number of remaining tasks and opens tasks.exe by default. This should fix the issue with people having a lot of active tasks (100+?) and the plugin going kaput.
2) Moved the plugin back to 10th position instead of 2nd.
---------------------------------------------------
5/23/09: 0.4b (taskanium-qvga-04b.zip)
Change log: Added the task counter in condensed view for QVGA portrait mode. Uninstall the previous version before installing the new one.
-----------------------------------------
5/21/09: 05b
Change log:
* Fixed the recurring task bug.
* Changed font in plg file from Tahoma to Segoe UI.
* Changed the task counter to display only due today task.
* Removed dependency on Persistent SNB.
---------------------------------
5/21/09: 0.5
Change log: Fixed a silly bug. If you have installed 0.5b, please upgrade to 0.5 to this version.
