All of the buttons are working and RR doesn't load a 2nd instance when changing from one screen and back again. Here's the odd part...

When S&T loads up, it loads with an empty route. If I create a route within the embedded screen all is well. Everything works as it should.

If I choose a pre-arranged route from the file menu within the embedded screen and then hit any of the buttons, RR Loses focus on the embedded window and then nothing works right after that. If I leave the Streets screen and then hit the button to go back to it, RR launches a new instance of S&T. It's like I'm back at square one if I use a pre-arranged route. Weird huh? Ideas anyone?

The problem is the way streets & trips labels the screen. The 'normal' name is Map - ... When you create a route, it has the name route name - ...

To get around this, I create the route and save it. Create a folder with the same name and copy the route into it. I then rename it 'Map'. Unfortunately, this doesn't work on the carputer itself. I usually create my routes on a separate computer and then load them onto my carputer.

This is a limit of streets and trips and not the carputer idea.

Yes, but be sure you install Riderunner in Profile mode under Win7.

@dnr250 - Thanks, but I got it figured out. S&T 2011 will now embed ANY Route I choose (or create on the fly) without issue. It mostly had to do with what information RR looks for to identify the embedded application window. Sometimes too much info can be a bad thing. ;)

See post 1721. There are clues in there.

The same issue exists for ALL versions of S&T as well as other apps from time to time.

Continuing work on making all the major RR settings, available to set in the skin without editing ini's and such.

Here is the new weather settings page:

I was not..everything from xport to getting nav to pulse did not work for me I went to XP
Ironically I use CF now! cos I miss phone calls with RR/DFX
oh yeah it was WIN 7 64bit that I as running

64bit for surely doesn't belong in a carpc anyway, whether it be XP/7..
