WP-Pilot v2.0 - One-handed navigation of WeatherPanel

WeatherPanel Download Index

WP-Pilot v2.0
UranusWare ? 2006-2007

A Today plugin that allows one-handed navigation/operation of WeatherPanel (via the d-pad).

-

Overview
  • The WP-Pilot plugin can be one pixel in height or invisible. When activated, it displays a "pointer" over the WeatherPanel plugin.

    Moving the d-pad left or right will move the pointer over each "clickable" item on the WeatherPanel layout.

    Press the d-pad center button to activate.

    Moving the d-pad up or down will move to the next/previous plugin.

    WP-Pilot can be "skinned". Use the WP-Pilot Options to change colors and pointer types to match your overall Today (or WAD) theme.
Fixes/enhancements in version 2.0:
  • Enhancement: The plugin now has "Invisible" mode - zero pixel height.
    Enhancement: New pointer type: Diamond
    Enhancement: Device resolution aware - works with QVGA or VGA WeatherPanel themes, in either portrait or landscape orientation
    Enhancement: Support for Windows Advance Desktop (plus other desktop management systems)
    Enhancement: Option Dialog windows now use "property pages" - split into tabs
    Enhancement: Option Color settings now have slider bars for each color component, plus color mixing window
    Fix: Now properly passes control (focus) to WeatherPanel detail/pop-up windows - 5-way will continue working
    Fix: Now better at computing the width of repeating forecast sections (tough one!)
    Fix: Now works on international devices (such as Italian)
    Fix: Now properly reads the last line of WeatherPanel layout files missing a cr/lf

    Warning: When using "Invisible" mode, the Today plugin separator lines may disappear. Some people see this as "feature" If you need your separator lines, use "1 pixel" mode.
Installation:
  • Depending on your preference, I've attached both CAB and PC install setup files (Readme.txt file included in each).

    1. Download the desired install file to your PC and unzip it.
    2. If WP-Pilot v1.0 is already installed, go into the Today settings (Start -> Options -> Personal -> Today) and uncheck it.
    3a. PC setup method:
    -> a. Cradle your device.
    -> b. Run WP-Pilot-v20-WM5-Setup.msi (on your PC) to install.
    3b. CAB file method:
    -> a. Copy WP-Pilot-v20-WM5.CAB to your device
    -> b. On your device, run File Explorer (or equilvalent) and click on the CAB file to install.
    4. Open the Today settings (Start -> Options -> Personal -> Today) and access the Items tab.
    5. Check the box next to WP-Pilot, then move it (Move Up/Move Down) directly above or below WeatherPanel.
    6. Click the Options button to access WP-Pilot's options settings.
Currently WM5/WM6 only!

A special thanks goes to codyppc, Malatesta and Doreen for helping me test this! =D>

Enjoy!

I don't have the beta version, but I just tried 5.1.03. I can immediately see the issue: It only allows one plugin per tab. That's not going to work with WP-Pilot because it needs to be paired with WeatherPanel - it takes two to tango

If there's a way to get two plugins into a tab, it should work...

Storyr, quick question (and I don't remember if WP 1.0 did this, so please bear with me).

WP-Pilot 2.0 and Chameleon: In the current + 4-day screen, WP-Pilot works perfectly. But if I change it to any of the other screens, WP-Pilot will trace to the same points as on the current + 4-day screen (i.e. on the current condition, date, and moon screen, when using the 5-way to the right, it will bounce up and down between the non-existent icons and the toolbar.

Am I making sense here? Basically, on my end, it's always going to the same points regardless of what screen is being displayed... is this normal?

Thanks!
