Yeah a few if I can find them. I'll get the camera out tomorrow and take some fresh ones.

Actually, I wouldn't mind having a look at your disco. My brother has just bought a S2 disco and needs some ideas to help him get his carpc back in. Hopefully I'll be getting an S2 in the not too distant future. I think 12 years of driving 90's/defenders qualifies me for something a bit more comfortable

I'll post a link to some pics for you tomorrow.

hey Ash awesome skin, I will have to give it a try

Ashgrove it is all in the name

Ash, can you figure out what is going on in the attached pic. The wierd thing is it doesn't show on my desktop but is there on my carpc. I've also attached the skin.ini file (renamed with .doc extension) if you wanna have a look at that.

Thanks

my guess is that you have had at one point more than 9 satelites visable so the display has diaplyed a 1 and a 0, now you have say 8 only but it doesn't erase the 1 of the 10.


Remember he is using a font to produce the graph.


try reducing the width for the number of sats, or chaning the justification.


also why are you using the GPS font for :

routestatus
zoomstatus
routemode

Hmmm, will have to look into that. Something new for me to try and figure out

I had to play a bit with the label size as I am only showing 1 character of the string, but it works.

Also I have created a new font for 0 to 9 as a progressive WiFi style GPS sat count

What was it you said yesterday? Oh yeah...

Thanks

Said it yesterday :

No GPS or not correctly connected =0

GPS connected : 00 to 09 (more with a sirf III ?)

so 0 should be a blank caracter in the new font or try a small area so that only second caracter is displayed (but we loose information :differencie between 0 and 00 : was good for previous version to reconnect)
