Battery Meter for Snoopsoft Dashboard?

[OnTheRun]

Hi,

I have Dashboard 1.5 installed on my iPaq 3835 running WM2003. The main problem with dashboard is that the today plugins don't show up, so I was hoping someone could suggest a plugin that would work with it. I want something simple that will tell me how much battery power i have left, nothing fancy. Any ideas?

Also, i read somewhere that dashboard 2 did not run properly on 3835's. Can anybody attest to that?

Any tips would be apprecited.

Hi OnTheRun, Welcome to the Boards!

As long as you purchased the full version of Snoopsoft Dashboard why don't you go to the Order Lookup Page (http://www.snoopsoft.com/orders/orderlookup.asp) and download the latest version for Pocket PC 2003. Do a complete backup first and no harm, no foul so to speak. If you don't like it simply restore the backup.

Also you can ask Chris Scott the developer of Snoopsoft Dashboard yourself over at the pocketnow Authorized Support Forums (http://discuss.pocketnow.com/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=86).

Hmmm - Dashboard has worked fine with my machines, all the way back to my e125. I'm running 2.0.045 at the moment, so I can't speak directly to your version. That said, is there a "Show Battery/Power Icon" checkbox on the General Tab under options? I seem to recall that being an option on most of the versions of the program that I've run. If that doesn't work, you might want to try changing the "order" of items on the "screen" (Agenda, Tasks, etc.) in question, then do a soft reset and see if the plug-in shows up. I don't know why that works, but it does sometimes.

Good luck!
