As it reads this file everytime you cancel or do something on the frontend, I really needed it to be fast.. I've no idea if it will make any difference or not.. lol

Another suggestion, instead of comma delimited, use a pipe |

Hurry up and tell me to **** off or you like the idea, you're too slow and I need
a nap !

lol. I was trying to think of something else to stick in between, O well only took me a couple of hours to do it. I might just add a extra line to the skin..

# scale size 0 - pixels 1 - percent
SkinScale = 1

Keep everyone happy ;-)

Hi,

yes, its working fine now - THANKS !!! - but my favorite skin still is a little misaligned. I draw two white lines in this screenshot to show the alignment.

ok this is a easy fix.. get skinning.. :-)

1. goto the folder you installed FreeDrive to. (default - C:\Program Files\FreeDrive)
2. goto skins folder
3. goto silvertouch folder
4. double click on skin.ini
5. locate which textline you want to change..
ie.. eta=350,55,90,60,2,Verdana,26,157178,157178

now if you look above it you will see this line
#TEXT - left,top,width,height,justify,font,fontsize,daycol our,nightcolour
this tells you what all the numbers mean.. so to move the text down alittle..
change

eta=350,55,90,60,2,Verdana,26,157178,157178
to
eta=350,60,90,60,2,Verdana,26,157178,157178

save you skin.. then you dont even need to restart freedrive to see your results, just load the menu (tap the screen) then click cancel. Just place them where ever you want them..

cheers

why the changeover in the skin ?
it seems non english systems cant tell the difference between a , and a .

so when I was using percentage.. a line was like
time=81.6,64.5,18,5,2,Arial,14,16777215,14980463

it was causing an error.. yours are different in your skin, each on a seperate line so you wouldnt get this error of trying to split on a comma thing .. live and learn

have fun

I thought that Delphi was the only language with that problem. I also get the same errors on foreign systems

Observation:
<sorry if this has been mentioned in other threads>

When trying to select London followed by street, I get a Run-time error '6': overflow error.

I presume this is because London has got too many streets.
