Auto switch to Guidance screen for iG?

interesting, ignative=false should virtually be like running RR without any difference to previous versions.

iGmon already did it, but with iGnative set to true, it won't work.
If you set iGnative to false, iGMon is so process intensive. It tags my CPU with about 35-50% more CPU usage than without. That is on a Dual Core 3.4Ghz Pentium.

What about just have a dialog pop up with the turn direction and the road

ignative=false
Well it still chops the top and when you have multiple GPS screens it does some weird stuff and slows it down for me

So the only way I figured out how to have it work like before is to change the window name to !Intellinav on loads.

LOAD;EXTERNAL_GPS_ig.skin;Navigation;E:\Program Files\iNav\iGuidance\iGuidance.exe|nowarning;!Intellinav

It is not a command it’s a window name class

>>>>>>>>>>>> Window Details <<<<<<<<<<<<<
Title: iGuidance
Class: IntellinavWCls

Do you think that would help me with my IGMON switching back and forth like before.

That would be MUCH more difficult to code. You would need to tap into the iGuidance program, and capture the text dirrectly, and place it in a variable.

iGuidance does not make it easy to get ANY information to or from it. Switching the screen would be MUCH easier, and would suit the purpose nicely.

So Matrix... any further thought on this or development? The only other way I could figgure out how to "know" a turn was approiaching was by the audio (In 2 miles turn right) ect. IGMon did this somehow comparing the current sound level of the system, to when iGuidance spoke. I remember having to configure the volume so that it could tell the difference way back when when I installed it. This was used to pause Winamp when iG was speaking, but would also be a good trigger for the screen switch.

I totally agree with the rest here... this is one of the features from IGmon that I miss... this and the thing that it paused the music or whatever when giving directions...

Hard sometimes to hear how to drive while listening to music...
