It is a limitation. There's nothing I can do.

-I actually got it working yesterday for about an hour, but after restarting computer, it stopped working all together. Coming out of hibernate.

No idea.

-Also I am having problems with the big button screen for address input. It is pretty buggy yet. Is there a way to disable that?

set OSKSupport = 0 in iGMon.ini.

I would say that it looks like a carridge return or line feed character, seen something like that in autoit a couple of times when reading some lines from a file, just had to strip the string of those things..

Just my input...

issues with Next Turn Street Name as a RR variable.

It works, but it dosent show the actual street name, it just shows L or R im assumeing this is because the popup next turn only shows L or R also and not the street name.
Also, when using it on the main screen, it only seems to work for about 5-10 minutes then goes away. I didnt drive around just sat in the car to test it.
havnt had time yet to test anything else.

The next street name feature is still pretty buggy. I don't recommend relying on it at all. I did this because the street name display in iGuidance is too small. Hopefully it'll be improved in the next version (together with Auto Zoom).

Any idea what my problem might be?

Give me more details.
Windows version
Error message
screen shot
IGMon behavior before and after the crash
did it work with Beta 1.1?

**WarningSLO** · 06-07-2006, 02:33 PM

XP Home

I'll get a screen shot showing the error, but everything else works fine now that I disabled the osk and dialogs in the ini.

Beta 1.1 worked great, its a new error for me.

i had this problem initially when i just copied my skin over the default one, but some things have changed in the skins, so for now im just using the default and will rebuild the skin from scratch.

liquid_smoke, I added IGDialogs.ini, which is another skin for IG popup dialogs.

You no longer have the error, right?

Thanks for the quick response! I'll check it out in the car today.

Another feature that would be nice (since you're on a roll

) would be to add a "cancel route" button that would show up when IG goes into its close up navigation mode. On local streets this comes up so often that I don't have a chance to click the button on the normal map screen. When I'm sitting at a light and the nav screen is up, it'd be nice to be able to cancel the route there.

I'm still having problems with the voice announcement of next turn but I otherwise like the feature. I changed the setting in the ini file and that helps the lag before "next turn..." is announced. But I then have to wait 10-15 seconds before the actual street name is spoken.
