Default [APP]Cloned TodayScreen - SecondToday - Alpha version

Since my next device will be an xda diamond (at least i hope ) where Today-Plugins can't be used together with TouchFlo 3D.. i've release a very early alpha version of SecondToday.
An application that behaves like the default-todayscreen. This way you can use e.g. TouchFlo 3D and all your today-plugins (wrapped by SecondToday).

Tap and Hold on a free window area will open the settings-dialog!!!

Project: http://www.chi-tai.info/cs_wm_tools_...tm#SecondToday

Feedback, Bug Reports, Suggestions are welcome either here or at discussion-forum http://www.chi-tai.info/discuss

if it is a useful program, then i guess there will be feedback

Image with support for Big TrayIcons (more fingerfriendly):






The attached cab remaps the left softkey for switching between default-todayscreen and SecondToday.

Hey ikarus, i'll gave your SecondToday 0.25 a shot and I'm quite impressed. I use it with the Diamond on the Left-Softkey on Hometab.

The only todayplugin I use is TodayAgenda ... there are some redrawing glitches after changing its preferences: it shows only a quarter of the screen, maybe you didn't notice this with qvga, but if I restart SecondToday everything is OK

Very nice work so far

My only wish is that I can hide the SecondToday by pressing left softkey, this would be great because i could toggle the two today screens.

i run second today with bepe's 0.53GER - rom and it works. i only need battery status to run in background to keep track of my call times and data amount, so i only switch to second today once a day or so. most of the time i have to kill and restart it to get in on screen though...

but so far: thumbs up!another great piece of work!

I would reaaaally appreciate some screenshots

Also, maybe a stupid question, but that's VGA-only, right?

should be fixed with 0.2.6
download again.

oh.. SecondToday can't find the background-image of today-screen..

i know the app is in an early state, but if you want to help then send me a pm and we will try looking for the cause.

btw. there are still some things like reordering of plugins (settings) and scrolling of window in work and available soon.

for screenshots.. there's no need since it looks like the regular today-screen with plugins

this is a know issue..
solution so far.. add it to the exception list of htc-taskmanager and bring the SecondToday-Window to front by starting the program (executeable) again.
