- 1. Overview

- PopUp FreeTime is a HackMaster extension for creating appointment and
- a task (if you wish) without quitting the current application.
- It wakes up in the week view, so you can easily find your free time slot.

- Existing appointments (and the one you just created) can be edited with
- your favorite datebook application (DatBook and Datebk3 are currently
- supported).
-
- There is a setup where you can choose the pen stroke to activate it, your
- default datebook application and if you wish phone lookup to be shown
- each time you activate PopUp FreeTime.
-
- PopUp FreeTime is compatibile with OS 2.0 and later. It will not work on
- older (Pilot 1000/5000 with OS 1.x) models.

- =============

- lift it.
- - "Single tap" and "Double tap" - PopUp FreeTime can also be started with
- the single or double tap on the silk screen button.
- - "From" and "to" popup triggers - choose starting and ending buttons for
- the activating pen stroke, or choose "From" button for a single or double
- tap activation.
-
- Known problem: If you are very fast with double-tap, it will not work
- correctly.
-
- - "Show Phone Lookup on start" - check it if you want the phone lookup
- to be displayed each time PopUp FreeTime is activated.
-
- - "Datebook app" - choose one if you want to edit existing appointments or
- the one you just created with PopUp FreeTime. Supported applications
- are DateBook and Datebk3.
-
- Usage
- =====
- PopUp FreeTime wakes up in the week view, very similar to the DateBook
- week view.
-
- If "Show Phone Lookup on start" - setup checkbox is checked, thenthe phone
- lookup screen is displayed first.
-
- Main screen
- -----------
- - You can view existing appointments by tapping on the filled time slots.
- Description of that appointment will be displayed in the upper part of
- the screen. Tap on the description while it is diaplayed if you want to
- edit that appintment with the dattebook application you have chosen
- in the setup. If that application doesn't exist on your Palm device,
- nothing will happen.
-
- - Tap on the "Go to" button to go to another week.
-
- - Use page up/page down hardware buttons to view previous/next week.
-
- - To create an appointment, first enter description. Use "Lookup" button
- to get the Phone Lookup screen. After that, tap on the desired empty
- time slot. You'll get appointment/task details screen. However, if
- description field is empty, nothing will happen.
-
- - "Edit" menu includes all standard editing functions.
-
- Details screen
- --------------
- On the details screen you can choose:
- - time and duration of the appointment
- - date of the appointment
- - alarm preset time (or no alarm if you uncheck "Alarm" checkbox)
- - you can also choose if you want the appointment to be "Private"
-
- If you check the "Add a task" checkbox, you'll be able to choose
- task priority and ToDo database category. If you checked the "Private"
- checkbox for the appointment, the task will also be "Private".
-
- Appointment will be created if you tap on the "OK" button, or if
- you tap on the "DateBook" (or "Datebk3" - depends of your setup
- choice). If "Add a task" checkbox is checked, a task will also be
- created with due date set to the date of the appointment.
-
- If your "Datebook app" setup choice is other than "None", and if
- that application exists on your Palm device, additional button
- will be available. Its label will be the same as your setup choice.
-
- If you tap on that button, datebook application will be started and
- the current appointment will be the one you just created.
-
- PopUp FreeTime creates appointments in the DateBook database, and tasks
- in the ToDo database and it cannot be activated over an application
- which uses any of those two database.
