This new version 5.2.14 doesn't include many changes with it like usual builds, but they wanted to release a fast hot-fix for the Auto-Height feature due to the reports that they received with the latest version, so this new version should resolve the problems that were reported with the latest version.
* Please notice that if you are using WAD or similar you should disable the Auto-Height feature since it is designed for use on the regular Today screen.
"....just finished implementing the fix in the code that should resolve both the previous auto-height setting problem and the new problem reported with the Contacts tab content not showing....."
and
"I've also updated the download link from the first post in this thread so users that will download this new version will actually download the most recent version file and not the previous version that had the problem with the contacts tab with it."
BTW, the app is designed to be skinned so the buttons and fonts and such can look radically different from one PPC to another. It is very flexible.

Vague problems and extreme annoyance... don't be baited by the haters

Don'y know if Radimus's post was aimed at me, but I'm not trying to bait anyone, I have a genuine difficulty.
I take yor point about minor tweaks, but since I'm not familiar with 5.1 I am starting from scratch with 5.2, and the fact is I cannot relate the current manual to the current software.
Just a couple of simple cases, start of the instructions proper, Page 5, section 2, second sentence ".......you will find the ........... wrench/hammer button." No you won't.
Page 7, section 3 line 1 another reference to the hammer and wrench, and then "The first time you enter the settings you will see a pop up" No you won't.
Now I'm sure there are work arounds and alternates, but I simply do not have the time (or the inclination really) to play with software to find out how it basically works. Maybe for the special features and new bells and whistles, but not for the basic product.
That's really unfortunate, I suppose - because I'd argue you won't find many (if any) developers as responsive or active as Amit at SBSH. Have you tried SBSH's forums?
I'd also encourage you to have a poke at the software, rather than the manual. The small tweaks (that seem to come almost once or twice a week - for free) are often geared toward ease of use and making the interface both more intuitive and pleasing to the eye.
The value of having so much productivity from the Today screen as enhanced by PocketBreeze cannot be understated, IMO.
I have absolutely no affiliation with SBSH. I'm just a very happy customer.

When I first tried PocketBreeze, I was overwhelmed by all the options and turned away from it. The more I read here at AximSite, however, the more I thought the features met my needs and how I wanted to configure and use the Today Screen. My first inclination was to avoid having much on the Today Screen, but steadily I felt that I wanted quick access to several items that Pocket Breeze could make handy.
I bought it outright and then began to experiment with it. There was a bit of a learning curve, but playing with it for an hour quickly led me to be able to use the basics and configure it for my needs. Now I find it a crucial element of my Axim setup. I, too, don't really like to have to do a lot to figure out software, but in this case I found it worthwhile for the features.
I changed my mind about it based on what I saw it accomplish for others as I studied a few "MY PDA" pictures and the "Post Your Today Screen" threads. I hope you find what serves your needs and doesn't cause you frustration.
I'm not much help....cause I am one of those who gets a device or software and rarely looks at the manual or instructions. I poke around and see what I find. If I get stuck, then I go look... :)
I have both many of the SBSH programs on my device....couldn't imagine NOT :)
Well, speaking as someone who didn't read the manual, I found it fairly intuitive - basically, I use it as THE Today Plugin, and put any Today plugins I need (PocketWeather, PhatNotes, etc) into tabs in there by opening the Tabs Menu and adding a Custom Tab. Half the features I don't need, or use - or are extremely obvious in how they work (the Contacts list is... well, it's a Contacts list).
Like Thundercat33 and hstn said, there's no real substitute for 'doing' to understanding something like this. And to be fair, it's not a very complicated program - just install it, try it out, and uninstall it if you don't like it.
