Read this and this

Have been using RR with Reborn for a week now, I must say out of all skins that I tried (most from the 'released' section here), this one is the most pleasant on the eyes, pro looking and quick - I'm running it on a 800MHz Samsung Q1U. Questions:

1. I have the new Wifiman installed but can't figure out how to get to the WiFi screen in Reborn - is there a hidden button, or is it a thing I have to enable somewhere?

2. Anything special I have to do to integrate/embed iGuidance? It's not in the options, slightly worried, as I just paid for it and I like your skin so much! What good is a car pc without [a properly embedded / good looking / extra featured] navigation...

3. I know it's not your script/plugin, and I know you cringe when we complain about our 1024x600 devices not being able to display this that or the other, however:

Are there any steps I can take to make the RRTraffic look better than the screenshot? I realize it's set for 800x600, but can't find settings. Is there a place to alter the script, or it's all hidden in the EXE? Is there a way to programmatically push the "hide the dumb white rectangle on the left" little button? Finally, is there another thread I can ask stuff about the traffic script (for example, some sort of cache would be nice, like a snapshot taken when your car passed through a connected wifi zone, etc..)? The traffic stuff is kind of the most useful things while driving...

Sorry if the questions are dumb and thank you again for a great skin.

You can try this new version that accept (i think )all settings.

Thanks a lot for the quick reply. I'll try this today!

EDIT: Works great on 1024x600. Is there a way to launch it in full screen mode (without the white portion on the left)?

Thanks for the kind words and thanks to others as well. Reborn has been praised in recent times which is nice to hear, it motivates to continue.

1. You can set menu buttons by press and hold the button 2 sec, then you can choose function to button from list.

2. There should be nothing special to embed iGuidance. I don't have iGuidance so that's why it's not in list. I can add it if you wanna test it?

3. Look's like pierrotm777 already answer your question. Do you have any specific reason to use Traffic? I update Google Earth skin for new GE6 plugin as I write this. I'm not big fan of Traffic and GE 6 is much more fun.

Ahhhh... didn't know about the 'long press' thing... I'm running Win 7 and the long press does it's own thing.

This whole button changing opens a whole new level of excitement and hours of playing (hopefully without crashing). I will definitely try GE, that screenshot looks awesome - I want that! - I was always a bit scared of it on my Intel GME945 graphics...

PS. I did embed iGuidance following the basic FAQs from around here and it works as expected. I come from the loaded-with-all-gadgets-iGo8 (on a Mio CE device) and am used to a lot of eye candy, but this seems clean and fast (and boring). I guess it's OK.

Heh I'm glad you got something fun to do for few hours. I have play with seven few weeks on desktop and this does lots it's own things, which start annoying me heh... but long press doesn't do anything odd here. Unless you're using touch screen which will right click when you do long press, adjust right click time little longer.
