______________________________________
23:47:42 13.07.2003 - Version 2.0.0.88

need to add the following lines under [Options] section of
ini file:
TimePickerFormat=HH:mm:ss
DatePickerFormat=dd.MM.yy
See:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=
/library/en-us/shellcc/platform/commctls/datetime/
datetime.asp

wrapped).

______________________________________
11:15:14 11.07.2003 - Version 2.0.0.86
* Fixed bug that the reminder tray icon did not changed to
reflect the amount of today reminder when the day is
changed.
* Changed default date and time display into short date and
time format, which depends on your computer setting. You
still can customize the date and time format by editing
the ini file. Scroll this document to see how to do that.
* Added calendar window. This window is displayed when the
mouse pointer is above the Kana Reminder tray icon. By
default, the calendar is always displayed. If you want to
not display the calendar, add the following line into ini
file under [Options]
section:
ShowCalendar=0
replace 0 (zero) with 1 to display it again.
By default, the display of the calendar is delayed about 1
second, that is, you need to position your mouse pointer
at the same place above the tray icon for 1 second before
the calendar is displayed.
You can change this delay time by adding the following
line into ini file under [Options] section:
ShowCalendarDelay=500
where the number represent the delay time in milliseconds.
The above example sets the delay into 500 ms. The accepted
values are between 0 (zero) and 20000 (20 seconds).
By default, if your mouse pointer is not above the tray
icon, or the calendar window anymore, the calendar will be
closed within about 10 seconds. To change this time, add
the following line into ini file under [Options] section:
HideCalendarDelay=3
where the number represent the time passed before the
calendar window will be closed in second. The above
example sets the time into 3 s. The accepted values are
between 0 (zero) and 59 (59 seconds).
When you right click the calendar window, a popup menu is
displayed. The Add New Reminder menu is used to add new
reminder at the selected date. The Date, Time, and Date
Time submenu are used to copy the selected date and
current time into clipboard.
The custom format is read from the specified custom date
and time format (scroll this document down to get that
information). The Goto Today menu is used to display the
current date. To select the date, click the desired date
once.
By default, none of the popup menu items is set as default
action (the default action is executed when you double
click the date). To set the default action, add the
following line into ini file under
[Options] section:
CalPopupDefIdx=8
where the number represents the index of the popup menu.
Number 1 represents the Add New Reminder menu, 2
represents the copy selected date into clipboard in long
date format menu, 10 represents the copy selected date and
current time into clipboard in custom format menu.
The Goto Today menu cannot be selected as default action.
When you double click the selected date, the default
action will be performed.
ISSUE:
If you click the button on calendar to change the month
quickly, the default action may be performed.
______________________________________
10:04:58 08.07.2003 - Version 2.0.0.85
* Fixed the caption of the button on triggered reminder
window. For one time reminder, when the 'Remind again' or
'Edit' checkbox is unchecked, the caption did not return
into 'Dismiss'.
* Added setting to set the default index of the 'Remind me
again within' time selection. To do this, add the
following lines inside [Options] section in ini file:
RemindAgainIndex=idx
where idx is the index of the list started from zero (0 =
5 minutes, 1 = 10 minutes, etc.)
______________________________________
22:06:51 07.07.2003 - Version 2.0.0.84
* Added setting to position the triggered reminder window on
screen. Currently, 4 positions are possible. These
positions define the position of the first triggered
window on screen. The subsequent windows will be
positioned next to this window, with priority, first
in horizontal direction, and then in vertical direction.
By default, the first window will be positioned on the top
left of the screen.
To change this setting, add the following line inside
[Options] section in ini file:
WindowPositionIdx=x
you need to change the value of x by:
1 = top left
2 = top right
3 = bottom left
4 = bottom right
* Fixed some bugs.
______________________________________
10:03:52 04.07.2003 - Version 2.0.0.83

0 = Always display Only Once as default
1 = Allow to set predefined type.
And the valid values of idx on ReminderTypeIndex are
between 0 and 31 (the index of the list base on zero).

* Fixed bug. When more than one reminder data are triggered,
the reminder data to be processed (edited, deleted, or

______________________________________
09:07:05 23.06.2003 - Version 2.0.0.79

the triggered window to avoid accidentally closing that
window. To activate this function, add the following lines
inside [Options] section in ini file:
DisableControl=1
DisableControlInt=10
where the valid values for DisableControl are:
0 = Disable this function
1 = Enable this function
and the valid values for DisableControlInt are between
0-59. DisableControlInt represents the time interval the

the top right of the window still can be used to close the
window during the disabled state.
______________________________________
11:40:48 21.06.2003 - Version 2.0.0.78
* Added two predefined reminder types: weekday and weekend.
Note: because of this addition, if you have weekly
reminder type or above, it will be shifted, so please
check your data for that kind of reminder.
By default, Saturday and Sunday are defined as weekend. If
you want to customize the weekday and weekend, create the
following entry inside the [Options] section in ini file:
WeekDayIdx=0111111
where 0 defines a weekend, 1 defines a weekday. The length
of the sequence of those characters should be 7 (number of
days in a week) or otherwise it will be ignored. The
sequence begins from Sunday, so the above example defines
Sunday as weekend and the other days as weekdays.

0 = disable user icon
1 = enable user icon
* Create the following section in ini file:
