DigitalFX 4.0

I have also made a larger gps screen. I use with it with iGuidance.

I started with the StreetsTrips skin file that has the regular playback audio buttons at the bottom.

I also edited the png file to remove the top row of buttons as I find the menu buttons inside iGuidance more than adequate, and the added screen space for the program is what I am after.

I also edited the exectbl.ini the same way as in the above post, to add a button for the program.

Hope this helps along the way.

PS. Actually I use this as my replacement for the regular Iguidance wide skin, but have also used it for several of my own embedded programs, where I create my own button to add into the menu system of DFX3

I'm leaving for Houston tomorrow morning but will try to post it up tonight.

btw, used it while out today and I could bounce back and forth between iG and Garmin without a hitch. I like the way the maps look on iG better, but the directions/routes that Garmin picks seem to make more sense. iG would zig-zag me through entire neighborhoods to get from point a to b...Garmin tends to stick to the more major traveled roads which I think is better when someplace you've never been.

:EDIT: Here's the zip file with the skin files and a readme.txt. Hopefully that's simple enough for any ol' noob skinner to figure out...'cause I did

Wow... I think I really like the way that looks.

Yea, that does look really nice! I would at least love to have a copy of that background to include with the skin, if you do not mind of course
