changing remember time of appointments

[topcaser]

If i am been remembered of a task, a window appears. I can delay this window by pressing the right button and can adjust: 5 min, 15 min, 1h or 1 day. Can i edit these settings, maybe in the registry?

The difference between 1 h and 1 day is very huge...

Yeah, I miss the 2h and 8h option too, it was there in 2003SE. I don't know if we can change this, though...

Some kind of problem her, and more ;

Don't you all hate the itsybitsy tiny buttons on the reminder ?
It's hard to select "snooze" while driving your care, and even worse to set the "snooze time" to 10 or 15 minutes.
a 5 Min. snooze is rather useless te me if i'm driving....

So i'd option for a total replacement ;)

Vijay555 made something for this for WM2003SE. Search in the forums or on his homepage.

Hidestart, yes i know.. but it doesnt work, at least not on my Himalaya :(

Hidestart isn't on my webpage, it was a research beta that I stopped developing because there is an issue.

Don't you hate it on WM2003 when you've got 5 reminders pop up, but no time to deal with them all immediately, eg press snooze 5 times etc? However, the reminders block all access to any other program.

So HideStart had a feature to let you move reminders, not snooze them etc, and bring them back when you can deal with them ("ghosting"). Hidestart also remodelled reminders to be easier to use with your thumb (FYI code turned into VJBigPhone). However, reminders have a "feature" where they will always steal the focus to remind you that you have reminders, even if they're hidden.

Anyway, I'll explain further later, but just again, FYI, VJOkButt now features a super duper version of reminder ghosting. I'll report soon, I'm playing with the beta now.

I don't know how we can reformat reminders on WM5. On VJSihaya I intend to do this in a nice way, but on the standard OS it's difficult to represent the info in a nice way. Although, I have an idea - perhaps we can monitor when a reminder balloon comes up and show enhanced, enlarged soft keys. That code will grow out of VJToggleToday... eventually :)
