At the top, you are doing a "GE_START", as well as a hidden Button for audiocopy.skin.

Are those just artifacts that need cleaning up? Or am I confused?

If curious as to the changes I was making, since I'm using a laptop, I included a couple of the powermon plugin labels. Then just for grins, I added GPSSAT to the right of the text in the GPS button. I did that until I work out 100% the USB ports coming out of hibernate.

Yea, they are just artifacts. I usually put stuff up there when I am adding a new skin, so I have a way of calling it. Then when it is working, I find a place somewhere int he skin to put a button for it. I keep forgetting to remove them before I do a release though.

Did the info above fix the freedrive issue? I do not use it personally, so it is hard to test it here.

Hi, Thanks for asking.
I am currently experimenting with a new motherboard and CPU (AM2)
Sick of trying to optimize Epia all the time so gone for a 3.8 Gig Amd 64 which allgedly takes only 65 Watts. (So a M2-ATX PSU can power it)
So I will reload your skin etc Tomorrow and try It again and I will let you know
how it goes.
Cheers Terry

Awsome!! That worked for me!! I couldnt get the dvd to launch for the life of me!!!

Question: Does anyone know why iGuidance will not open on the first "click". I have to explicitly select the "toggle screen" button (bottom right square) to get it to display. It would just open to a blue screen on launch. This is a problem as it will not display when it "auto switches". It doesnt display in the music player window as well when clicking on the "GPS" button.....

It would be great if someone could provide me with an answer!!!

EDIT: I found the answer after sifting through this thread!

yeeeee hawwWww ....

Welcome to the forums! I have to say, this is the first time I have seen someone very first post in the forum, ask a question, and edit it to say you figured it out on your own

Out of curiosity, Was it the window title that was not correct?

It Works,
I am now going to see if i can add things to it like sat no etc if thats okay with you.
Once again thanks
for all your help

Since last weekend, I've noticed that on the 1 & 5 weather day screens, data is not being displayed; the radar, temp. and sat. images are displaying. I tried removing and re-installing, changing the city, state (to countless others) but to no avail.

I went ahead and verified that this was also happening on my desktop.

EDIT: This may not be skin related as I tried two other screens and I am having this same issue.

**Mr_Civic** · 02-06-2007, 01:31 PM

Is there somewhere that I can purge the current weather data (besides using the reload button)? I'm thinking a cache problem possibly?

**JohnWPB** · 02-06-2007, 03:52 PM

It could be a cache issue, I do not know, as I haven't seen this before. TO "empty the cache" delete the file "MyWesther.xml" in the Root RR folder. It will be created again when you load the weather screen.

Sure alter it for your use all you want! You may also want to check out the skin I did for freedrive that matches the skin as well. It also gives you a button to exit the freedrive skin

Click anywhere along the top bar to return to RR. For some reason CDRSkull did not put an exit button on the default skin, and it is very hard to get back to RR.

You can download the skin HERE The instructions to set it up are in the help file included with the DigitalFX Skin.
