Thread: LSX....formerly LS3.0

When you select night/day skins are they suppose to change with the time set in RR? Or if there's a night/day button on the menu this will toggle the skin also.

I also wasn't aware that this was a night skin; do you have a day skin? Or we're to use a different one. I saw you had another skin with colors so I'll use that for the day skin.

Oh believe me I've been doing more reading that I care to!! In fact that's all I've been doing today; hmm I guess I didn't do much work today!!

I'll do a search on setting up the weather too.

The one thing that I would suggest making bigger and maybe it's me is the button on the bottom left that takes you back and fourth to the menu.

Ok, off I go to do more configurations...
Thanks

the bottom left button, imo could probably be a tad bit bigger, but this is the first comment ive had that its too small in the past 4 months or so. Also, the clickable area for that button is bigger than the grafic, its about as tall as the play buttons on the audio player.

one thing i incurage is to open the skin inside of RRSkineditor, where you can easily change small things like button clickable area, and fonts etc.

I'll play with that too. Do you have a day Skin? Is the LS3Beta your day skin?

Tissy, I found out what the problem was with the date. Make sure your resolution is not set to more than 96dpi. I had mine at 120 because I wanted larger fonts but the SKIN doesn't like that of course.

Thanks Civic03 for your pointer, if you are talking about the DPI setting of the screen resolution etc, mine is set to 'Normal size (96 DPI)'.

Liquid_Smoke did say there was some font issues, so i am hoping this is one of them that is easily fixable.

Mind you i haven't seen any other people stating the same.

Thanks anyway.

Off topic question; I've done searches and continuing to do so even in google. I'm having problem with my screen not resizing correctly. It's showing that it's 640x480 even though I have it set to 800x480 in my display settings. I have to hit the auto detect on the xenarc lcd before it resizes correctly but even then it shows 640x480. I hve to do the auto detect every time I reboot. This 800x480 is a pain!! Any thoughts? Will do more search now.

I have Iguidence, and I can not get it to embbed, any ideas guys?

what do I put in the rr config? and what do I need to do in the .ini's on the script?

I have been playing with skinbedder over and over again nothing I do works?

youll get more info posting this in the lcd section.
i would like to keep this thread clean as possible and easy for me too see any issues people are having etc. Dont want it to turn into the LS3.0 thread.

i wouldnt bother with trying to run 800x480, just set your screen to 800x600.
you may be able to use powerstrip to set the res though.

what are you doing? steps you are taking and results you are getting.

This skin dosent use the path setting in rrconfig for GPS, look inside the skin folder and open ExecTBL.ini and the first 3 sections are for GPS paths. By default they allready point to skinbedder that is located inside the LSTOOLS folder that should be in the root of your RR install.
If you have iGuidance installed in the default path, followed the instructions on how to properly install the skin then you shouldnt have any problems at all.

If you DONT have iGuidance installed in the default path, then you will need to tell skinbedder where your IG is located.
Open ...LSTOOLS\SB2.9\iGuidance\startup.au3
and edit the path, resave file. Delete startup.exe and rightclick on startup.au3 and choose compile script. This will require that you have AutoIT installed to recompile the script into a .exe file. If you dont have this you can post the contents of your startup.au3 file AFTER you have edited it to your correct path and i can send you a new startup.exe file.

If all of that is a little too complicated, you can bypass using skinbedder all together and just point all your paths directly to iGuidance.exe but the file menu bar will be visible. I should probably just set that as the default and let natural selection take its course.

Prior to using this skin, did you use skinbedder?
