Thank you.
Trying it now

Pocketday wants to replace module pdlistlib from my pdlists application. I had this issue a while back but for the life of me I can't remember how we resolved it.

******EDIT: All day events are still overlapping.

System status is a nice feature that I didn't notice before.

Thanks! Downloading now...

crs · 07-19-2008, 06:47 AM

It's ok to overlay PDLISTS. It's the same version.

squeff · 07-19-2008, 07:08 AM

FYI, when downloading, identifies itself as 5.3.1.2. I presume this is intentional.

"Added a new System Status section"

Pro only? I don't see this as a choice.

"Weather and World Times now use the same font as all the other sections."

Thank you! Looks soooo much nicer.

Also, the OS 4.5 style options screen looks nice.

don.new · 07-19-2008, 07:31 AM

This is really good. Thank you!

Added support for multiple calendars (Bold or OS 4.6+)

So will there be support for multiple calenders under OS 4.5 in the future?

WillJitsu · 07-19-2008, 01:26 PM

With the new beta, I've noticed the battery percentage and bar is more difficult to read. It looks like it runs into the signal bars and the percentage gets cut off at the bottom. It may be due to a font change or something.

Also the last updated weather time is still getting cut off with "...". Is there anyway to extend this?

I'm also unable to locate the new "System Status" section.

In your original post, it says to report bugs using the Help menu selection. I don't see this option. Are you talking about the "Support" option?

I just noticed that when the temperature gets into triple digits, it cuts off part of the low temperature for that day.

System status is a pro feature only...

We can't support multiple calendars below OS 4.6 because it's not available to 3rd party developers until 4.6...RIM OS limitation.

We just posted 5.3.1.3 (same URL's)

Fixed: Weather display tweaks, stock display tweaks, Battery % tweak and the weather location lookup is back.

Clicking the same url still brings up 5.3.1.2 (at least for 4.5)

It looks good now. Thanks!

After installing, most of my shortcuts disappeared (i.e., not mapped). The proper keys are still there - just what they mapped are gone.

- B.

EDIT - I see the bug. The shortcuts that are no longer mapped are the internal applications (e.g,. calculator, manage connections). However, pressing the shortcuts keys still work - they just display as not mapped within shortcuts.

Would you mind posting a picture or, at least, a detailed description of what this is. I don't have the pro version, but would be interested in know what this looks like to decide if an upgrade is worth it. I've always been on the fence and this may or may not push me over.
