Version 1.2 (December 15, 2003)
Features
Added the ability to customize the actions for each button.

Bug Fixes
Fixed a bug that caused programs such as Pocket Excel to freeze the device when using the tap-and-hold to cancel the dialog.
Fixed a bug that would not allow the font, "Trebuchet MS", to be used in a theme file.
Made a change to increase the odds of skinning the Today menubar.
Made a change to the close button detection to handle programs where the close button may not already be defined.
Fixed a bug where the colors on PPC 2000 devices may not have been set correctly.

Peace,
Henk

Iam basically using "ICbar" because it is available in Dutch.
I can't say which one is better.

I just installed the new version last night and had the same clock issue, see the link below. I also use the theme/skin as provided by epsilonx from our (axim)site.

...and make sure you uninstall the older version, if used, before installing the new.

I installed the Wisbar advance, and removed it and reinstalled the older version. Found it impossible for the program to hold its custom settings. I would select a button and assign a task and it either froze or didn't save. Reinstalled the old not a problem. I think it is still in Beta.(At least this version). How is it working for you?

I have no problem in getting the clock on the taskbar, both clocks "standard" and "small"

Peace,

Still working great for me, might have something to do with the theme/skin you choose as well..just a thought.

I noticed last night that Wisbar v1.2 slows down my AXIM so I uninstalled it again.
