iguidance closes on skin switch

**guino** · 12-13-2007, 10:40 AM

For some reason Blue's config defaults to 3 screens on the limit setting, this should be blank or a higher number like 10 by default.

@guino and sonic, i just downloaded the 12/13/07 binary and the dayskin/nightskin commands still close iguidance. i have embedapplist=iGuidance and screenlimit=10 in my rr.ini file. also, did either of you happen to see my post about the bug about the winamp pause/lower volume on iguidance speech feature?

thanks guys

Alright guys, I spend some time look into this issue. Well, there was a fixed I send to Sonic a while a back. The code is in latest OFFICIAL release (11/02/07). That will take care of MANUAL skin change and reload problem.
The latest problem you guys found is in the auto skin switch by GRAMMA or DAY/NIGHT setting. I fix that too. The fix is similar to previous one. This one in in Exec_SkinChange procedure (ModRoadRunner.bas). I send the code to Guino shortly. If anyone can't wait and have a way to compile the code, here is the fix. Note that I just cut and paste from the previous fix.

.
ModRoadRunner.bas, Exec_SkinChange procedure.
Change from

Code:

        'Unload All forms in order
        t = UBound(Menus)
        While t >= 0
            #If Mappoint Then
            If Menus(t).Tag = "mappoint_gps.skin" Then: s = "MapPoint"
            #End If
            Unload Menus(t)
            Set Menus(t) = Nothing
            t = t - 1
        Wend

change to

Code:

        'Unload All forms in order
        t = UBound(Menus)
        While t >= 0
            #If Mappoint Then
            If Menus(t).Tag = "mappoint_gps.skin" Then: s = "MapPoint"
            #End If
           'Modified by MatrixPC: Keep GPS running while switch skin.
            If (Len(Menus(t).AppName) > 0 And Len(UseVars("EmbedAppList")) > 0 And InStr(1, UseVars("EmbedAppList"), Menus(t).AppName) > 0) Then
                HideWindow Menus(t).AppName, True
            Else
                If CloseAPPs And Menus(t).AppName <> "" Then CloseWindow Menus(t).AppName
                Unload Menus(t)
                Set Menus(t) = Nothing
            End If
            t = t - 1
        Wend

Let me know if there is problem with that.

i'm pretty sure thats the exact same thing i sent to guino for the 12/6 release but it might not have been in the same position of the function. Guess we'll see though!

It's probably already in the 12/6 release.
But since no one mention about the fix in that release and the source isn't available yet to verify that it's in.
