Just because I love replying to myself today :)
If you want to see the "small" font (Palm 9 point standard) in
high res, you can check the screenshots page:
http://www.codejedi.com/shadowplan/screenshots.html
The top left screenshot is the small built in 9 point font being
used on the high density OS 5 Tungsten display.. *Tiny* :) Thats why I use
a little larger..

Jeff,
Is there anyway during sync to have the conduit automatically purge
lists from ShadowPlan 160 that are no longer on the HH? I delete and
change names of files often enough that I accumulate clutter there.
Deleted files remain in the folder as well as the original list after
a rename and then a sync. This clutter adds difficulty in opening up
the right list, especially after a rename.

I plan on addinf a feature where we have an "Archive" directory in
the ShadowPlan160, and move un-handhelded files there. The trick of course
is that some people use desktop-only files, so how to deal with them?

Subject: Simple Printing from the Desktop
|

Jeff,
I want to cast my vote again for simple printing functionality from
the desktop. I hate to bring up a competitor's product, but
ThoughtManager has a nice printing function. I am not a
ThoughtManager fan because it is a very simple outliner and doesn't
have all the other functions of Shadow, but at least the printing is
straight forward. You can print a list with checkboxes or send a list
directly to WORD to include in a report.
I would like Shadow to let me print my lists including the checked or
blank checkboxes, etc. Then I could refer to the printed
list throughout the day when I am away from the desktop and don't
have the time or it would be awkward to scroll throught the list on
the handheld. As I go along throughout the day I can refer to and
check off tasks as I work on them. At the end of the day I would
transfer my new checked tasks to the desktop or handheld and sync.
Simple export to WORD would help when you need to include a list as
an outline in a report.
Thanks for keeping us "uncomplicated users" in mind.

Subject: Shadow conduit hangs after fard reset
Here's an interesting one.
I have a problem with my M105 in that when I change the batteries a
hard reset ensues.
In the past everything has been recovered to my Palm.
The first time I went through this process with the new 2.6 conduit,
the Conduit hung in the initial setup phase. The HH claimed to be
syncing the To Do List.
I managed to recover using 2 Custom hotsyncs the first excluding
Shadow and the second including ONLY Shadow.
Anyone any ideas as to how to avoid this problem ?

Its the regular Shadow version, upped to alpha 2.6.2; it should
work identically on all non-OS5 units as 2.6.0 does. (ie: For you, it
offers high resolution as normal, but not yet virtual grafitti)

yeah, the new conduit seems to pause or hang during some hard
reset recoveries; it shoudln't be an issue.. next sync all is fine. I'm
not sure about details yet, but I expect it to be fixed in next update (in
a week or two or so hopefully). The issue is that on some Palm Desktops,
Shadow is being given a totally invalid set of data during hard reset
restorations, and the conduit gets hung thinking about it :/

I think you just need to push hotsync again and it'll all work
second sync :/
Fix coming.

It should be harmless (if a little odd).

I use the list view and like having the date on the left...the reason
is it doesn't waste a line for one event. Your method would require
two lines for days with only one appointment. To me that's more
wasteful than the 8 characters wasted now.

I'll see what I can do; I'm not going to tackle all of it.. ie:
I'm not sure how many people really care about landscape mode, and if its

What are the gotchas?? I didn't see anything mentioned on the site.
And if anyone else has done this, what's the best font you've found? I have
awful eyes, so I've tried the Garamond 14 bold (as my normal font) and it's
not
quite right. Any suggestions?

The only one I found was that when you're drag-and-dropping that
the items you drag over can get funny looking (low-rezified), until the
drag is complete. Its simply temporary aesthetics.

I just use the Palm built-in "large" font, which in high-res mode
is tiny, but not goofily-tiny :) (ie: Palm OS size 12 in Font Bucket
speak, or the large font if not using Font Bucket)

For sure; once we get the Mac side to beta or release, we'll be
focusing on desktop feature growth (all platforms) for awhile; some

You can do rudimentary exports now; a save-as HTML lets you view

Subject: Managing Tags
|
| |
In trying to move a handful of separate Shadow lists into one larger
list (with each item having numerous tags for eventual filtering), I
find it takes a fair amount of time to individually add each tag to
each item. If I'm bringing in 200 items and each can have an average
of 5 tags, then that's 1000 different assignments I need to make.
Maybe there is a better way to do this. What about, in addition to
the current "Add Tag" method, using a more 2 dimensional method of
managing tags? Have a screen that looks like this:
Tag #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 <>
Item
Item 1 X X X X
Item 2 X X X
Item 3 X X
Item 4 X X X
Item 5 X
The row of tags could be scrolled sideways within a given tag
category. The column of items could be scrolled up and down based on
the current filtered list. The center section would move up & down or
back & forth with the top row or left column. Tapping the
intersection of an item and a tag would put assign that tag to that
item. An X would appear to denote the assignment. Tapping a displayed
X would remove the link between the tag and the item. Using such an
interface would make it easier to set multiple tags for a given item
or assign one or more tags to multiple items.
Comments? Is this even feasible?
Thanks!

Subject: Keyboard Friendly but ...
|

Hi all,
Last week I got a Palm Portable Keyboard for my HandEra 330. I was quite
surprised to see how keyboard friendly Shadow Plan is.
<space> = demote
<backspace> = promote
<left arror> = collapse current level
<right arrot> = Expand current item
Cmd A = View note
...
The only one I can't get to work from the keyboard is:
Cmd <space> = Toggle checkbox
The graffiti strokes work but not the keyboard equivalent.
The keyboard sequence brings up the on-screen keyboard. Is there any way
to prevent the OS from bringing up this keyboard and allow the sequence to
go to Shadow?
Thanks,
Steven

I'm a bit leary about toggling the checkbox with the center button.
Most of my filters screen out the checked items. My concern is that
if I accidentally toggle while navigating, then I have to change to a
different filter, find the item again, and uncheck it.
I would vote for center button expands link menu so I can navigate to
linked items.

Subject: Still have that bad syncing feeling
|

I am still unable to select any different custom sync settings other
than the defaults on my work computer - Win2k. I think this is due to
my work's security measures and requirements for administrator
priviliges to accomplish some tasks. Today I tried to convert a PDF
file using the Adobe Reader Palm Desktop tool and my computer gave me
a message saying that that task required administrator priviliges.
Other then that I'm loving the new conduit in terms of NO occurences
of doubled items in my lists and I do have all the other capabilities
on my home computer.
I'm likeing the new capabilities of the desktop as well ... but give
us something new and many of us get ideas for more, don't we? Would
it be possible, and practical, to add the capability of some keyboard
shortcuts to initiate some tasks? Especially new item, new child.
This would enhance what you've already done to make list development
easier through the desktop interface.
I have some other thoughts/suggestions/and buggy items in addition to
the above but I kind of hold to the approach of dribbling one or two
things out at a time and see if they resonate with other shadow-

Jeff-
Just for the record on the issue of printing: I'm about to have to
abandon Shadow due to the lack of print ability from the Palm. I
evaluated Shadow for preparing drafts of specifications and other
engineering documents while in the field, and the main use for test and
inspection check lists and recording comments during start-up
commissioning of drawbridges (my specialty).
SP does a perfect job for me until I get ready to leave the meeting or
job site when I MUST leave a copy, especially of a inspection Punch
List, for the contractor to correct. It can't wait several days until I
return to my office and can cut/paste or whatever into word; and I don't
carry a laptop with me (that's the reason for the PDA).
I carry both a IR linked hp-dj340 printer and a mini SiPix Pocket
Printer AT in my field kit so am ready to print. I'm not concerned much
about formatting as long as it's legible and the outline order is
maintained (I usually use "legal" numbering so don't even need
indenting), but I must be able to share the results with the contractor
and other participants in the meeting (and no, most of them do not use
PDA's and beaming to other installations of Shadow is not a option.
Contract requirements insist on hard copy reports).
The necessity to share work with others is so primary to almost
everything I do (except my contact list and calendar) that I was
surprised how little support printing gets in both Shadow and most other
outliners. Must be a lot of very non-communicative PDA users in the
world. Anyway, it appears that I'm in the vast minority of SP users so
understand why my needs don't get up very high on your to-do list ... or
is it that the majority of folks who need printed output just don't
consider or use Shadow? A wonderment.

An interesting idea, but I woudl rather come at things from
analyzing the root needs and causes; ie: Your real need is to assign 1000
tags (damn, 5 tags on *every* item?! :), so perhaps instead of defining a
keen but comlpex and all new interface, you really just need a fast way fo
mass-tagging? ie: "Assign this tag to all items in this sublevel", that
sort of thing. PErhaps a simple coupel of taps to do a mass assign would
be mroe efficient use of resources?

What happens? You hit Custom -> Shadow -> Change in Hotsync

Very few people need printing from the PDA directly; as such it
must be low on my priority list. Few people have an IR or bluetooth
printer around. I get 1 message every 4 or 6 months asking for printing
from the PDA, while I get 50 a day for other things. (This however I
expect to grow over the next while, as we push more and more into business
amrkets, and ask the business markets get mroe into wireless)
Of course, you can always export to memo or DOC and print from
those.. theres dozens of appliactions which can print to IR from those
formats. Thats always been the avenue I've pursued for printing, due to
the limited audience.

PDAs are about mobility, and very few people have a printer where
they are, or on the road. As such, PDA people who print is a very small
minority of PDA users in general (from statistics, not guesses). 99% of
PDA owners will print from the desktop application. However, what is
interesting is it is a changing trend.. as more and more IR and bluetooth
devices get out there, peripherals are starting to catch up. Bluetooth
hard drives for remote data stores, phones that can IR print, etc. Most of
this is going on in Europe, but is coming over to the US and Canada slowly
these days..
So I think things will change over the next year or two, and I do
intend on looking into PrintBoy and other toolkits in awhile, once OS5
settles down (who knows what printing options will be available for OS5 in
a while). I do have a growing segment of print folks, and I do not intend
on letting them hang.
Hope the exporting can help you out. If you need a better export
format, let me know and I can work on that.

How would you move the files back and forth? floppies?
BTW, you can install Shadow Desktop if Palm Desktop has been
installed. So just download and install Palm Desktop, then install Shadow

Expand Links and Collapse Links are only available from the List
View screen, link arrow. The link arrow shows up on the right hand side
like this "->", but only if you've not turned it off. (A custom View lets
you not include the link arrow, but all the built in views have it).
Tap on the link arrow to see either Expand Links or Collapse
Links, depending.

Hanging head, I hadn't found the "Export" function in the PDA. Now that

This is what I find surprising ... that so many people are entering data
for their own enjoyment (?) without any need to share this data with
others. My own experience, both DT and PDA, is the exact opposite. I
seem to always have to print or fax.

The xslt files for direct viewing of the XML files are very good,
you may be able to customize it to your printing needs.
I don't need to create checkboxes and such, so haven't tried.

PDA's are generally personal; but when data sharing is needed it
usually is done through the desktop (email, etc).
Can you get a bluetooth interface for printers I wonder?

The developer has to build a print system, so its a lot of work.
(And due to how infrequently I've been asked about it, I've always
said so far to just do a DOC export and print the DOC :)

I've tried it both ways to no avail. Also Ive tried "locking" a

the settings will revert to the defaults and the checkbox will have

That is correct behaviour; when you check "set as default" and
then hit OK, the settings become the default. Next time you open it up,
you are now defining either new temporary settings, unless you check them
to be set as default.
Do a fresh sync so everything is all clear and the current temp
settings are all used up, and then go into it, set it up differently, set
as default and hit OK, then go back in, and the checkbox shuold be
cleared, however the values shuold be the same.

FWIW, I'm using PalmPrint ... it has done such a good job for me that I

Personally, if I'm in the office I would prefer to hotsync and print
from the pc, either from SP-DT or export to a text or word editor for
better formatting. Don't ever expect SP-PDA to have full print
formatting capability.
Can't really figure out why would ever want IR link in office. For
laptop, prefer wireless LAN connection for much faster 2-way (in future,
probably Bluetooth).
My IR is all for field use where the PDA is on it's own. SiPix mini
printer is especially great because of it's tiny size. Yep, not for
fast, full page size, or high production ... but perfect for the "get
by" pass out temp hard copy until I can get back to the office and get
the document(s) properly formatted.
In my professional life the PDA is a field data acquisition and
reference tool that I can use to present a checklist to be checked,
dated, and remarked; and to enter field notes and report text to be
edited and formatted once I return to the office. Of course the PDA
also serves as a portable reference to my contacts and calendar, but
that's a separate issue and not involved with the need for printing.
When engineer's take paper notes on pads or in field notebooks, they can
photocopy those manuscript notes and leave them for reference by others
(no matter how crude and incomplete they are). I have the same need to
leave a hard copy of my PDA work-in-process ... or I have to go back to
paper and pencil.

No, I mean.. each developer ahs to build a lot of code to
interface to PrintBoy or PalmPrint or the other systems; they dont'
magicly know how to read Sahdow files, nor format them for printnig, and
Shadow can't magicly know how to talk to these print solutions or provide
intrerfaces for pritn options etc. So adding print support to a Palm
applciations is quite an extensive undertaking..
(without even thinking about writing a new print system, which
would be suicide :)

You mean you cannot find the uninstaller, or cannot operate it for
some reason?
ie: It should be in Add/Remove programs as soemthign to do with
Codejedi.
If it fails, you can always just delete all the files where you
had it install them, and remove ShadowPlan2.dll (do a file find for it ;)

as you said, that is your personal preference for your use...
for me, when I am not at or near my desktop that has the desktop version, I would love the ability to be able to print to another printer, or to just print instead of having to go startup and run my desktop program. many times I just want a hard copy of what I have to jot notes on or work at changes from a larger view, and thus printing from the pda would allow that. since many are beginning to use shadowplan as their ONE all inclusive planner, printing from it would seem to be the next step! my thoughts.

I am also new to Shadow Plan and use it for projects at work. I very
much would like to share some of my lists with co-workers or print
for my own use from the desktop.
Ideally, the desktop version will have more of the functionality of
the Palm, much like HanDBase. I would like to print out a filter of
the list -- this would allow me to use one master list for all
organizing and then filter out what I need for others or for myself
in a given situation.
I think Shadow Plan is so powerful that it would be a formidable
desktop program if the desktop component had more features.
Congratulations on creating a wonderful program.

but do remember this Jeff, from what i can see most new printers are putting in the IR capability, and seems the new OS 5 pda's will have bluetooth installed, the capability to install it, etc. these inclusions are right around the corner, and the more ahead of the game you are it seems the more people will come to your product and give it better reviews!!!
just a marketing thought...of course, i don't have to do the work. ; )
keep up the greatness.
Kevin
