Code:

[Commands]
RRPCNAVI_GPSTONAVIGATOR		send the latitude and longitude to Pc Navigator defined by =$GPSLATCLIP$ and =$GPSLONCLIP$
RRPCNAVI_GPSTONAVIGATOR;YOURLAT;YOURLON    send directly your latitude and longitude 

RRPCNAVI_STATISTICS		returns distance (in meters) or time (in seconds) to destination and nearest waypoint
RRPCNAVI_STOPNAVIGATION		stop the navigation
RRPCNAVI_LASTPOSITION		get last known gps data

RRPCNAVI_UPDATELATLON_START	run the latitude and longitude labels update
RRPCNAVI_UPDATELATLON_STOP	stop the latitude and longitude labels update


[LABELS]
RRPCNAVI_RETURN			the info returned by Pc Navigator
RRPCNAVI_LATITUDE		return the LATITUDE from PC Navigator
RRPCNAVI_LONGITUDE		return the LONGITUDE from PC Navigator
RRPCNAVI_ALTITUDE		return the ALTITUDE from PC Navigator
RRPCNAVI_SPEED			return the SPEED (in km/h) from PC Navigator
RRPCNAVI_HDG			return the HEADING(in degrees) from PC Navigator

i frown on misuse prefix RR

that is "reserved" for RideRunner
as you should notice any "NEW" RR command, is always prefixed with RR

PCNAVI_xxxx

would have been good enough

keep this in mind please

and get these vars:
IBusCommunicatoRR_LATITUDE=47º 22' 27.2'' N
IBusCommunicatoRR_LONGITUDE=11º 34' 10.9'' E
(also see screenshot)

at the moment testing with pc navigator is unpossible. first i have to create the skin.

Attachment 68217

I see that the latitude and longitude haven't the good format for my plugin.
If you can convert it into the RR format , that would be a good thing :-)

Sorry for this same error. It's solved with the 1.0.2 version !

i can convert it with the calculator, but can't integreate in the plugin.
my programmingknowledge is very bad. and i don't have the sourcecode of Ibus-plugin.

Frown all you like mitch, but you are far too late to hijack the rr prefix on commands.

Many, if not most, plugins including all mine use rr as the prefix for their commands.

changing that now would be quite a lot of work and break most skins.

as long as the rr is directly followed by the plugin name (or shortened version of) it should not be a problem.

Ok,
You can test this new little plugin !!!

GPS convert for RR

i have no plans to enforce it... i have said it many times before...
commands/variables/indicators/sliders etc, starting with RR are RESERVED for RideRunner itself
please do not use in your own plugins

RRxxx_xxxx
is ok
as RR should never use _

but xxxx_yyyyy would be preferred
example

WebRadio_Play

is all you need

RRWebRadio_Play

is redundant

thanks!

its really to prevent collisions of commands/inds/lables...etc, if i add something to RR

now i tested the navigator plugin. it's not possible to send coordinats to PC Navigator. or i don't know how it could work.
pc navigator probably needs a com-port gps-mouse.
but, i found on ebay a modul, where i can connect my car installed gps-cable.

the converting plugin works fine.

and the command: PCNAVI_GPSTONAVIGATOR;$YOURLAT$;$YOURLON$ does not work. i get always an error.
