We took a little road trip today, so I had some time to implement a few more features for ToodleAir. You can now set a start date (^) and a note (+) using the special syntax. Here is an example:
Test Task *Personal @home ^Today +here is a note

I’ve updated my Adobe Air AutoHide plugin. Here are the changes:
One big thing that has changed, is now you have to pass in the nativeWindow. Here’s how you can initialize the plugin and bind events:
window.onload = function() {
var autoHide = new AutoHide(window.nativeWindow, true);
autoHide.bind("dock", function() { log("event dock"); });
autoHide.bind("undock", function() { log("event undock"); });
autoHide.bind("show", function() { log("event show"); });
autoHide.bind("hide", function() { log("event hide"); });
};
(The second parameter when initializing is if you want it to auto start)

I just made a minor update to the How Does Traffic Look? application. I added the adobe air update framework which will automatically check for updates on load and I also made the app, by default, show the entire US on first load (if you haven’t moved the map around yet).

Every day before I leave work I open up firefox, go to maps.google.com, move the map to where I work and click the show traffic button. I know it doesn’t sound very difficult, but I am always trying to find ways to make my life easier and, as a developer, I have the power to do so.
How Does Traffic Look is a very simple app built in Adobe Air that shows you a map with the current traffic data. You can move and zoom just like google maps and when you open up the application again, it will remember the exact position and zoom when you closed the application last. You can get it here:

I’ve just released ToodleAir 1.5. It has a couple new features:

I’ve written an Adobe Air script that will allow any adobe air app to be docked on the right or left of the screen and will autohide until hovered over the edge.
To use, you will need to include the AIRAliases.js and put this in your head tag:
<script src="AIRAliases.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="autoHide.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = function() {
var autoHide = new AutoHide();
autoHide.enable();
};
</script>
to disable autoHide, you can call autoHide.disable();

I just updated the ToodleAir app. Here’s the new stuff:
ToodleAir 0.13
Adobe Air is required, you can get that here.

I’ve written an Adobe Air app for the task management system ToodleDo. As of right now, it is a simple app that allows to you easily add tasks. I have plans to let you view your tasks, but that won’t come for a little bit.
I copied the syntax for emailing tasks into ToodleDo. You can read more about it here: http://www.toodledo.com/info/help_email.php. Here’s the basic instructions:
Each new piece must be separated by a space followed by the special character. Putting it all together, here are some example tasks that you could add:
Call Jim !! @phone #today
Finish the Report ! #next friday *ProjectA @work
Mow the lawn *Chores @home
ToodleAir will automatically grab your contexts and your folders, so it will try to autocomplete if you type the first few characters.
