I looked at the gpstop.skin all the iGuidance section looks normal (all other sections are remarked out). This hasn't worked with previous skins also so I believe I'm missing how to enable it elesewhere.

A workaround is to change the command to the normal format in top.skin and gpstop.skin. DO NOT USE SKINEDITOR!

Below, only the speedo is working 'cause that's all i want to see for now.

/[GPS=iGuidance]

So tree, are you saying that if you have #fore# in the line it doesn't work?

if so check that at the top of the top.skin there is a

/Define Fore 128,255,0

make sure there is a '/' at the beginning

Ok Guys, This was a test to see if the noob was paying attention, right? The problem appears to be the extra double quote. Did I pass?

Working fine here now with this -
L,505,004,060,025,#Fore#,20,"Tahoma:B","GPSSPD",""

GPSLAT, GPSLON and GPSSPD do not show with the #fore# in the line.

This is what's at the top of top.skin:

/DEFINE Selected 255,255,255
/DEFINE Fore 191,164,85
/DEFINE Contrast 255,255,000

good spot, if that double quote is in the top.skin file ( I don't have one available on this PC to check)then that will be the problem.

have a look at the GPSSPD you have / out in your post, plus in my posts above.It is only on the GPSSPD which would explain why that is notworking. However it does not explain then others.

Aha! I see it now. Had to C&P one on top of the other to tell the difference.

Thanks KShoes, Enforcer.

Is it possible to add a shuffle function, or does it already have it? I couldn't find it! (I know where "repeat" is)

EDIT: Nevermind, found it.

If you are running IG3 and wondering why the LAT and LON labels aren't showing, change this:
L,230,008,260,025,#Fore#,15,"Tahoma:B","GPSLON¦¦GP SLAT",""

to this:
L,230,008,260,025,#Fore#,15,"Tahoma:B","GPSLON||GP SLAT",""

Look closely at the double pipes, ain't that something! I just replaced the originals with double pipes from my keyboard and now the labels show-up

Change the line in the IG section of top.skin and gpstop.skin.
