Home Screen Plugins & Constants

[Guardian]

I did a search for this and I didn't find it and figured others might have this question too. It seems there are alot of "Guru"s among us and somebody has got to know this and I would appreciate the help as one developer to another.

Does anyone have the list of "Plugins" that are available to the home screen and their "CLSID"s in Windows Mobile 6.x (assuming they are different)

Does anyone have the list of constants if you will that hold the parameter values for each of the plugins, such as noevent, nocall, etc.

I appreciate any help you can provide or if you know of any resources where I can find these information and before anyone says download the SDK, I have them, I plan on thoroughly reading them and integrate them into my VS2008 development but for now I need to make some small modifications to the home screen xmls and a few tools that I have found are limited and frankly not that good.

For example, I am trying to modify this section of code:

<!-- SMS Count Plugin -->
<plugin clsid="{2F930BF0-6FE9-4a53-9E17-88E9247BAB48}" name="SMScount" height="16">
<background b-border-width="0" />
<format state="nosms" visible="false" /> <---Something to this effect
<label y="0" x="225">
<format state="selected" halign="left" bgcolor="transparent" fgcolor="#800000" font-weight="bold" font-size="16" />
<format state="unselected" halign="left" bgcolor="transparent" fgcolor="#FFFF00" font-weight="bold" font-size="16" />
<text>Text Message :<unreadSMS/></text>
</label>
</plugin>

and I want to be able to have the switch set to only show this when there is actually a text message and otherwise don't show. Such as we do with missed calls by setting "nocall" visible to false and viola it won't show unless there was a missed call.

anyhow, thank you all in advance and hope to get some input on this.

Probably should have posted this in the homescreens section. Some of the really great HS makers never look at other sections of this forum.. Im not quite sure i completely understand what you are trying to do or I might be able to help.

You sir are awesome. I have one more question, is there anything documented more recent than 2002 that includes the more recent "gizmos" that 6.0 has, if any? Just wondering.
