Chapter 3: Property Descriptions and Usage

TodayOrder

Applies to

Application object

Description

Specifies the position in the Today screen of a custom PocketBuilder Today item.

Typically the top item in the Today screen is the date, followed by owner information, calendar appointments, the mail inbox, and tasks. The date does not have an order number in the device registry, so if it is displayed, it is always at the top of the Today screen. Otherwise, the first item in the Today screen has the order number 0 and the Today screen can accommodate a maximum of 12 items.

When you deploy a custom item with a TodayOrder value of 0, the previous item in the Today screen with a value of 0 is moved to the bottom of the Today screen.

Usage

StepsTo select a position for a custom Today item:

The TodayOrder property takes an integer. The following example sets the custom Today item associated with the SyncDisplay application as the sixth item in the Today screen:
