All that is missing now really, is somehow to be able to control volume settings when PCNav speaks....like with destinator in RR

Did anyone figure out how to properly embed windowed in RR ? And i am talking about not using a cmd/bat file to start pcnav windowed, but rather with cmdline params in the RR button code ?

Ok, so i got tired of trying different ways of parsing parameters in RR, so i did a very simple application that starts pcnav with my parameters, so now i can just call my appl. in RR and it will start the pcnav windows and embed in RR. If anyone wants the appl. just let me know.

Yes please. Does it also control the audio as well as run windowed?

no, the application is very simple, all it does is start pcnav7 with the cmd line parameters that are needed for windowed mode. I will do some changes tonight and post it, so you can define in an ini file what resolution and placement pcnav should be at. Right now its statically done at x=0 y=50 and size is x=800 y=550

Nice work!

Im not sure if the patch works for 6.x but you could try it :-) I have 6.x but i am running 7.x now on all my pc's so i can't easily test it.

I just made my little application look for a settings.ini in the same dir as the application is in. The settings ini should contain this :

Xpos
Ypos
Xsize
Ysize

on the first four lines of the file, so a setting would ex. be :
0
50
800
550

Which would start pcnav 50 pixels down, and with the size of 800x550, fits on the destinator_gps.skin with a topbar of 50 pixels.

If no settings.ini is found it will use the exact parameters above instead.

Then you can just run startpcnav.exe in your button code in RR.
