How to add a translation
In the install folder you can find the lang folder, inside it copy the file language.ini into another file, you should name it language.<your local>.ini for example, for French the local is fr, thus the French translation file should be named language.fr.ini (for complete list of locals see here (http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/php/code_list.php))
Edit the entries in the file.
Dont forget to fill the translatedBy so you'll get the proper credit for your work. If you'll send me your translation, I'll add it to the next release.
If you use notepad to edit the file, when you save it, make sure the encoding is UTF-8, so you wont lose the special characters.
The application normally will load automatically your translation, if your phone local is set to be the same, however, you can also manually select the language from the main screen menu.
Import
Import file should be a text format preferably with the extension .txt
The file format should be as follows:
Database: <List name>, <List Type>
<Category>,<Count>,<Item Name>
<Category>,<Count>,<Item Name>
...For example:
Database: Weekly Shopping,General
Refrigerated,2,Milk
Refrigerated,3,Butter
"Condiments, Spices",,Sugar
Note, to facilitate import from "Handy Shopper", if a line starts with "• " those characters are trimmed from the line.
Export
Export file is done by default into the application install folder, with the file name export.txt
How to add a skin
All skins are in a folder called Skins under the install folder of the application.
Each skin is in its own sub-folder
The names of the files in the skin folder must start with the folder name followed by dash '-', for example, if the folder name is Blue, than all file names in it must start with "Blue-"
Button width shouldn't exceed 400 pixels, and its maximal height should be 78 pixels
You should also have an ini file named <skin folder name>-skin.ini (e.g. Blue-skin.ini).
The colors inside are in hex format as 0xRRGGBB, e.g., if you want deep green color (Red=0, Green=FF (255 dec), Blue=0) the value will be 0x00FF00
As of V3.50 you can skin the whole application. As an example, I expanded the Dusk skin (the buttons for the main screen were made by redd214) so that it's style will be reflected to the whole app. You can see the skin files under the <APP Install Dir>/skins/Dusk

Things left to do
Move action buttons (Add, Delete, Copy) to the bottom of the screen
Check if possible to use long press on item of Manila SDK to start item menu
Capitalized every first word option (will prob add it to the language ini file, as not all languages support it)
Barcode support (??? not sure about that)
User guide/help
Import from SMS (correctly formatted).
Let user change items positions
Item cost and list cost (user option).
Ability to sync between several devices
Save state of all collapsed groups
Ability to select different than the main email/phone info from the phone book
Have more than 2 lines in text edit boxes
I'll be very happy to get your feedback.
The application is using NETCFv35.wm.armv4i

Hey Konstantin,
Many thanks for the translation, I'll add it to next release.
If you'll look in my todo list in the first post, I want to replace the Add button with graphic. This is why its not in the translate table.
The reason for that is that I dont want the button to be big (I have no idea how long the string Add can be in other languages... :o).

How does this work? Using Transciber? That's what I use for quick shopping lists: Notes and Transciber, to quickly write down things like bred, butter, new laptop etc.

Yes, I think it's better for you to add some graphics. Duly noted.
By the way I can help you with some graphics element, like buttons and etc...
So will wait for next releases!

Hi Amir1960
Good beginning, and graphics will be Ok like a (+) and (-) and (x) :)
A suggestion for the menu, since you are going to add more options, instead of 3 lines (Save list, Load list and Del list) make one called List with submenus Save, Load and Delete. Then you could add Categories with submenus like Shops etc...
Another suggestion would be to place these graphics at the bottom, so the finger will not hide the text.
Keep the good work :D
BTW I can help with French translation too.

Ok, I see yours (BTW what about another name?).
It looks and feels more elaborate, I find confusing in "edit sh. list" after you choose category that items from other categories are visible, it should be showing only the items of this category IMO, and in this case you don't need 2 lines for every item, that can save a lot of space.
How do I translate? is there a template?
amirdt
28th January 2010, 06:51 PM
The category you choose in the "edit shopping list" is not a filter, its part of the Add item area, i.e. new items will have that category.
I agree that the GUI there is confusing, I'll look into shaping it up.
tito12
28th January 2010, 07:10 PM
I see, i was thinking categories would be a database, and clicking on a check box will make it appear in the actual shopping list or as you call it "go shopping".
Do you plan adding the poss. to edit Lists, Categories and Items?

Also I can made Icons for different categories... We have to think about it.
Also I think this app can be used in different ways - as for me I can use it as To Do list and etc...

The topmost priority now I think are two issue.
1. Ability to set & modify easily quantity, e.g. 4 Sugar, 2 packs of cigarettes, ...
2. Ability to edit (change) item that you already created in the different lists
BTW, I just saw your icons at full scale, they are great!!

I tried to, but after saving the file accents appeared as ? so I got rid of them, there were not too many and the only one that matters is Francais instead of Français, if you can solve it ;)
Edit: Here's the new translation, with accents :D
I think you made a שגיאה :D
SMS_ERROR=שגיעה בזמן משלוח SMS.
SMS_ERROR_HDR=שגיעת SMS
When quitting, a window opens asking to save changes? with 2 buttons "save" and "no", my suggestion to replace save by "yes" (especially when save in french is as long as "sauvegarder")

Hi amirdt,
Couple of things that I noticed:
Landscape it’s not working well, it’s not full screen (seems like only 60% of screen it's filled by de application) but the upper bar it's like 98% .
I use landscape because it’s faster to type.
It's there a way to delete or modify a category, like "General", Frozen, Dairy, etc... ? If you make a new category and let’s say you type it wrong, you cannot edit or delete the entry...
I'm thinking for something like press and hold your finger on category name so that a menu with copy, edit, delete, sort, etc. should appear.
Also, will be nice if every first word you type in the list or category will auto capitalize by default. First letter of the word should be in upper case, like when you type a new phrase in HTC SMS messenger...
Wish list for later development:
Capture a bar code (EAN number) with camera and the name of the product should automatically appear in the list.

Hi amirdt,
Landscape it’s not working well, it’s not full screen (seems like only 60% of screen it's filled by de application) but the upper bar it's like 98% .
I use landscape because it’s faster to type.
TBH never tried it on landscape, i m surprised that it works at all, I'll add that to the todo list.
It's there a way to delete or modify a category, like "General", Frozen, Dairy, etc... ? If you make a new category and let’s say you type it wrong, you cannot edit or delete the entry...
I'm thinking for something like press and hold your finger on category name so that a menu with copy, edit, delete, sort, etc. should appear.
Edit items is high priority in the existing todo list, will be hopefully added in the next version, currently the only way to edit an item is by editing the XML file.
About hold your finger is a good idea, not sure if the Manila SDK that I use enables that, from what I have seen till now it doesn't :confused:
Also, will be nice if every first word you type in the list or category will auto capitalize by default. First letter of the word should be in upper case, like when you type a new phrase in HTC SMS messenger...
Wish list for later development:
Capture a bar code (EAN number) with camera and the name of the product should automatically appear in the list.

Nice ideas, I'll add those too to the todo list, though in lower priority.
Many thanks for your comments!

The Shopping List is always the current list you want to shop.
If you want a specific saved list to be your Shopping List, just go to it, do "Select All", and than do Copy to the Shopping List.

Lets say you want to see only the "car" items:
First clear your previous shopping entries from the Shopping List:
- In main screen press [Edit Shopping List]
- press Menu->Check->All
- press Menu->Delete items
Now bk in main screen:
- press [Saved Lists]
- Select the "Car" from the list
- in the "Car" saved list do:
- press Menu->Check->All
- press menu->copy items to other list, and than select "Shopping List"
The idea is that in the "Shopping List" you can have items from several different saved lists.

No it is not redundant.
You can do many changes at any screen, all your changes are kept in memory, and you can save them in any screen, including the main screen.

Thought i have a minor bug with the new apps icon.

Perhaps because i use a "20 shortcuts for manila" application.

The problem is the HTC icons cache.
- Remove the icon from the quick links
- On your device goto: Application Data\HTC\ProgLauncher and there delete the file "My Shopping List.bmg"
- Add back the quick link
Please let me know if the issue was resolved

Nice Apps, this illustration really help, I am still having problems trying to understand categories, example I have a few vehicles and I have each one as a list, I would like to enter different categories like Engine parts, Maintenance, etc, etc, How do I enter these categories and enter the parts I want to purchase under these different categories??:confused: Thanks in advance and keep up the good hard work, thanks again.
ps are you thinking about a user guide when you get this apps to the vision that you have for it?
amirdt
31st January 2010, 03:49 AM
How do I enter these categories and enter the parts I want to purchase under these different categories??:confused:
Categories are accessed from the "Edit Shoping List" view and the "Saved Lists" view.
When you enter into either ("Edit Shoping List" or "Saved Lists") , you see at the top the default category: "General"
If you want to change it, just click it, You'll go into the Category config window in which you can select an existing category, or create a new one.
Note that the categories are common to all Shopping lists, that is if you create a category for one saved list, that category will be available to all other lists too.
I added in todo list to add also access to categories config from the main view.

Good idea, added to the todo list

Really like where this is headed, but I do have one suggestion. Putting the category name after each item in the category seems redundant. Seems it would save a lot of space (more items per page) to just list each item in the category without the category repeated for each item.

I agree that this line is not really needed. However, unfortunately the Manila SDK that I use, keeps the same line height regardless if one adds the category name or not.
Edit: Strike what I wrote above, it is rather simple to remove the second line, will be done for next release.

Good you got rid of the 2nd line. My report:
1- What is that (-) icon and 1 in the field beside it?
2- The icons are not finger friendly in this resolution
3- Can you explain the logic of the function Hide Checked items: are checked items the ones you want to buy (as I believe) In that case I'd like to hide the unchecked items, so my list shows only what I want to buy.
4- What's the use of Send by SMS (which works BTW but keep in mind the limitation of characters in one message)
Edit just saw the suggestion above, this was the only use I could think of
It's becoming a full time job :) All the best!

Excellent work!!! Everything working extremely well on my Diamond and, IMHO, looks/works so much better with the category title removed from the item. One other suggestion. As the shopping list can get pretty long, maybe an option to send via SMS or email and picking email address or telephone number from contact list?

To decrease the counter (only if the counter is of integer format.
The icons are not finger friendly in this resolution
You are right, though making them finger freindly on QVGA will take much of the screen.
Can you explain the logic of the function Hide Checked items
When I am in the shop and start buying items, I check the Items I bought (or actually the ones that I put in the cart), so the option to hide them enables me to easily see all the items I still need to pickup.
maybe an option to send via SMS or email and picking email address or telephone number from contact list?
As you almost always sending to the same person or two, opening the contact list every time seems not user friendly.

At last I understand what was that "copy items to other list" function!!!!:D
Amir, this is obvious to you because you are the developper, but without a manual, I couldn't understand why "Go shopping" gave me an empty list :eek:
At least consider to change this line to something like "Paste Items to Shopping list" ;)
Another suggestion in the same menu: the "delete" items is a killer, maybe add a warning before you delete the items by accident when all you wanted was to copy the 73 checked items to the other list :)
O.a.T.
31st January 2010, 06:25 PM
Automatic splitting/merging over the air would be wonderful. I'll check it out and report back.
On Sprint, in the U.S., longer than 160 character SMS's are automatically split into appropriate shorter SMS and then delivered as multiple SMS's. I never knew that! The only minor drawback is that an item in the shopping list will probably be broken over 2 SMS's, as happened to me. With that said, I think an email option is at best very low priority.

About the string Name not translated in SMS Sending, can you be more specific, I cant see that.
If you use German language, than "Name" is translated in the German language file as:
NAME=Name

OK, now I have had a chance to test it out a wee bit and especially now categories are importable, i thought I would briefly describe how i intend to use it for grocery shopping.
Create a master text file containing everything in the supermarket that I buy regularly, categorised by aisle.
Create a second entry in same file for alternate supermarket. Obviously Aisle numbers may be different
Import said file into MyShoppingList.
Go to "Edit Shopping List" and clear out anything that may have been left over from previous trips.
Go to "Saved Lists" and select the master list for the relevant supermarket.
Go down said list checking the items to be bought
Copy items to Shopping List.
On arrival at store "Go Shopping", having selected the menu option to hide when checked.
Sample List text file attached. Rename it to .csv and open in a spreadsheet program, makes it easier to copy categories, or in my case Aisle numbers, from line to line

Really nice idea, the only problem I can see that you'll get strange 2 commas at the end of each saved list name.
If you want, I can remove those extra commas from saved list name at import time.

Really nice idea, the only problem I can see that you'll get strange 2 commas at the end of each saved list name.
If you want, I can remove those extra commas from saved list name at import time.
Yup, it's only on the list names themselves so no biggie. Removing them would be handy, suppose I could just search/replace the text file before I import it.
Thought my method would be useful for those asking for basic usage instructions.
Add one to the request for AppToDate support.

This is a very attractive application and quite promising.
We've spent years (I think about 8) building a detailed HandyShopper grocery list with 938 items. It imports into My Shopping List very poorly with various fields (quantity, notes, category, item name) all jumbled up.
I'm just not up to entering all these items by hand, so I'll check in as development progresses. If there's interest in looking at my HandyShopper export, I'll be happy to provide it.

Version 1.4
*Ability to Delete/Edit all elements
*Added quantity & category fields to import / export
*Added quantity to SMS message
Version 1.3
* QVGA / WQVGA support
* Landscape support (see note bellow).
* Removed category bellow each item to save screen space.
Note: In the Manila SDK that I use there is a problem in the MessageBox in landscape mode, that can crash the program, so if you work in landscape - try not to get any error messages :D until I'll replace that dialog.

* Added Import / Export
* Replaced application icon (thanks jeckyll!).

- Add back the quick link

Okay, why don't put all graphical elements in just one graphic file (excepting the background image). The advantage is, that only one file needs to be loaded. So every element you can pick from just this file. (Just like in CSS)

Originally all graphic files were resources as part of the exe.
I moved it to external files, so people can edit whatever they want and easily make their own skins if they want to.
Anyway the files are loaded into the program at the program start-up, thus the way that they are stored should not affect the redraw of the main screen.

Is it possible to include the older theme, the "HTC style" theme?
Not "as is" the problem is that due to the fact that on some languages the text is so long, I need to have a space for 2 lines of text on each button (see for example Russian language) - meaning that the buttons need to be fatter.
I can make "HTC Style" skin with fat buttons if you wish, but I don't think that will be graphically pleasing.

This is a fantastic app, replacing my old HandyShopper without the scrolling function.
Did somenone try the export/import function?
I did it and it doesn't work well:
I first export my list and receive a .txt file that I sent to my computer. I opened it on my computer and added items in the same format:
Database:<DatabaseName>
<CategoryName>,<Quantity>,<Item1Name>
<CategoryName>,<Quantity>,<Item2Name>
...
Then I sent back the .txt file to my phone and made an import.
The message give me: Importation successful, 66 items imported, but I can't find the new items I added.
Any Idea?

@All: If QVGA works, I will provide a cab for easy install :)
@amirdt: Is it possible, that you can implement a setting to change the font (bold doesn't look very well) and an option to hide the font-shadow? Maybe a second font option for buttonpress... :rolleyes:

The idea is that you can save different lists depending on your needs, and than when you go shopping you can select whole list(s), or just part of it.

So it means that I can only edit the principal shopping list on my ppc and not on my computer... sad but allright
@ the developers: just for you to know, there is a problem with accented letter when importing, the accented letters are replaced by small square; no problem if I edit them on the ppc but problem while importing them.... Fucking french...

When you edit on your PC, make sure when you save that you save in UTF-8 format (in notepad do "Save As", and in the bottom of the dialog ,make sure that the Encoding is UTF-8) if you do that, the text should be OK with all the accents after the import

If you check out my post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5526815&postcount=122) earlier I detail how i am using it with two master lists, both created on the PC, and selected as needed on the PPC.

Sure, can be added to next release (font face and not using shadow).
OK, minor release is now available with those options.
Version 1.71
* Hiding items option is now sticky
* Some more skinning options (font style, show text shadow)
* The COMMENT entry in the skin ini is not used from now on.

Thank you to both of you, amirdt and deedee!!
It's now working the way I want!
One more thing, perhaps it would be nice to have the possibility to mark all the items in the "Go shopping" menu. When you import a new list, all the items are unmarked, and I think it would be easier to mark all with the menu and de-mark the one you need for your shopping....
thanks a lot amirdt, you did a real good work!!

Ok, I got to officially try the app out at the grocery store today and although I still love it, there are a few suggestions I would like to make. These are just suggestions with how I would like the app to work, but may not represent the opinions of others. I'll let you guys decide.
1. Right now, when selecting an item on your list you press the little check box next to the item's name. I'd prefer to be able to press on the entire line of the item and have it check the box.
2. I noticed that you are prompted to save changes everytime you exit the app which I LOVE!! However, it appears that if you just made an edit to an item and not add an item, you are not prompted to save. For example, I was getting used to the category feature and changed the categories of some items. When exiting, I was not prompted to save and lost the edits.
3. How is everyone clearing their shopping list once they purchase their items? Going back into Edit Shopping List and then deleting them all? Is there an easier way, such as from the Go Shopping menu?

Dude, your program rule!
Im keeping many lists (not only shopping stuff) on it.
I think that the main screen http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=277308&d=1265397536 is VERY ugly, so im still using version 1.4.
Maybe you can discuss the artistic part with a graphic designer? ;)
Keep up the good work.

Sorry, I don't understand you here, you have the command to select them all from the first version of this program...

Hey, thanks for your comment.
The application is skinned now, you can chose one of the other supplied skins, or, you can create your very own one... :D

Great suggestions mate, I'll try to do them all for the next release.

Thanks! One last thing I forgot to mention is that when you enter a new item on the shopping list and click the check mark, it add what you typed to the list and clears the line for the next item which is great. However, the Edit Category screen does not clear the line after entering in a new category so you have to go back and delete the line to add something else.
Thanks for taking everything into consideration and keep up the good work!!

dear amirdt, thank you for your reply :)
Two questions my friend
1. can you add an option to replace the "choice buttons" from the main list with "icon buttons"?
something like that:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=280056&stc=1&d=1265957933
2. An option to center the buttons on the screen if the wallpaper (the one with the shopping cart) is disabled?
PS. You must think to change the name of the application, its not only a shopping list ;)
Best regards
Love yr work
PS1 I will install the new version right now to play with the skins / collors :D

There will be a problem with the text, as the app is multilingual, the button text can be very long one...
2. An option to center the buttons on the screen if the wallpaper (the one with the shopping cart) is disabled?
They are always centered, regardless of the wallpaper...
hmm, do you mean vertically centered?

Please add more spacing between the first button and the frame and maybe some more pixels between every button.

Hi!
really good work - thanks!
please allow me to make a suggestion, too. what about always saving the changes? I mean, if I edit the list or categories I do that in purpose of making them resistant. so I always will answer "do you want to save the changes" with YES...
And the other thing is, could this app run in a non full screen mode? I prefer to leave my often used apps open, and this app is definitely often used ;) . This goes hand in hand with always saving so if another app crashes and takes the wm with it, the changes are save.
Keep this great work going!!
regards,
Obelix

No text dude, just beautifull icons :D
At least you can include an option maybe?

yep :o
And, you must include the wallpaper in the skin's graphic parts (not only the buttons / icons)

I'll add it to the todo list (auto-save as user configurable option).

If you have WM 6.5.x that's not a problem, as the X was moved to the bottom part of the screen.
Otherwise in many phones there are HW buttons that are uses to get you back to application's select window or the the Start window.
I don't like the idea of making the application non full screen as it will make it lose valuable screen space.

When I'm going shopping, I have to mark one by one all the items I don't need to buy, to be able to hide them. There is no option to mark all items in the menu "Go shopping" and I would prefer to mark all items and unmark one by one those I need.
Is it understandable?

"Select all/none" in "Do Shopping" was already added to the next version due to the request to be able to delete items in this window.
However, In your case, I cant see what the difference is from going to the saved list, doing "Select All", than unselecting the ones I don't want, and than do the copy to the shopping list. The result is the same, and so is the number of operation you need to do... but anyway, from next version you'll be able to do it in both ways...
