Thus without the ability to place the button at different spots on different screens, I opted to only place it on the fullscreen skin as it fits there very nicely.

And the reason I made EXIT5 is that while I do have RR buttons on the FS skin, when a normal exit was done, it did not close igcontrol, so I made EXIT5 to both go back and close igcontrol.

You can make an autoit script that modifies the numbers in the coords.ini file and run that before you run igcontrol, that way it will move the button to different places based on the screen.

1. I did that part tho it is confusing, it asks if the entire scale is in the box, but only the number (500ft) can fit inside that small of a box. The number is inside the box.

Yeah, only the number matters. I'll take a look at this issue again.

As for the Guidance screen switching issue. Try this fix.

BTW, to help troubleshoot the AutoZoom problem better, do you have some kind of Com port simulator like Franson GPS Gate? This is so that you don't have to run out to the car to do the testing.

Also, try this real quick for Auto Zoom. In iGMon.ini, set AutoZoomMode = 1 and PrimaryIGSkinMode = 1 (since I see you're using the Night mode).

This apparently doesn't work with IGLAUNCH.

The wizard bombs with an application exception after it asks if you are using the title bar. When i click no it crashes

note: it does work with regular i guadance embeded

Noticed that too.

Ok i did more testing and with the settings and exe you gave me it did zoom down to 100ft when i changed the simulator to 15mph from 60, but it didnt do anything from there. No matter if i went slower or faster it stayed at 100ft. Everything else but this is working just fine now when plain ole iguidance is loaded in (w/o iglaunch igskinner n all that)

Btw my iguidance is in day mode in that screenshot, though i had to put the day/night setting in igmon at 1 else it wouldnt autozoom at all

Mine does nothing with IGLauch. I can go through the wizzard but when I run it it does show up in the taskbar but thats it. would be nice to have it working with IGLaunch. I don't want to see any borders in the screen.

i'm hoping that the version later thats works with skinbedder will also work with iglaunch

**b8bboi** · 05-11-2006, 03:24 PM

Why do you use iGLaunch? What's the benefits?

**b8bboi** · 05-11-2006, 03:37 PM

SkinBedder users, download Beta 1.1 in the first post.

Download everything and run the Wizard again.

For LSX Void users, when the Wizard asks you what app to run when switching GPS, use "GPS" instead of "EXTERNAL" as in

Code:

exec.exe GPS

Then use iGSkinner. It also removes the file menu bar and everything. It's a later version of IGLaunch. They were both written by leelo.

BTW, in the screenshots, I wasn't using iGSkinner. It was the original version of iGuidance.
