How do you get the GPS window to integrate in the main window as per screenshot ? I see a standard compass image as before!

Nevermind, figured it out. Its an option on the menus.

It doesn't overlay with transparency though. Is that the way it is meant to be?

OK, I have 2 requests:

1) Need a way to assign a WAV file (custom beep sound) to button presses. Audible feedback of pressed buttons is a must in a carpc touchscreen!
2) Configurable to eliminate the overlayed arrows. They are neat, but I have found that it can get very distracting and confusing. I would rather have the original arrow top left corner. If anything, maybe just zoom the arrow in the top left corner, without transparency. I think that would be the best compromise!

Wow... I honestly have no idea whats going on that could cause that. Ill PM you and start looking into that.

Why would the menu text be in italics?

It looks to me like the twips per pixel is different on your copy of windows for some reason, I always assumed it was pernamently 15. That is the VB windows size values should be sized 15 times larger than the screen coordinates, but judging by your screen that number looks more like 10.

Nice work

FYI, people make sure your DPI setting are set to the default 96

I use Screen.TwipsPerPixelX and Screen.TwipsPerPixelY instead of hardcoding a value.

These are built into vb (well, in vb6 anyway) and solve this issue pretty well.

Request: Highlight active button and enabled hotkeys and use of directional arrow keys for navigation by keyboard.

I navigate Iguidance completley by hotkeys, save osk, and it appears that this program disables that ability. I can't even browse adresses with the /\ \/ arrow keys on my keyboard.
