super noob question Iguidance and weather

nigwhyrito · 05-21-2007, 01:51 PM

I for the life of me I cannot figure out how to access the weather or almanac in Iguidance 3.0 or 3.0.1. without using the keyboard. just my touch screen. Is this possible through the menu with touchscreen or not possible without keyboard attached?

The right and left arrow keys will scroll you through some screens that get you to the almanac,weather and others.
Up/down is zoom.

thanks EricE. unfortunately i have no keyboard connected and it only gives you the almanac not the weather. That can only be achieved by what looks to be a keyboard or keypad connected or some kind of input besides touchscreen..

I don't use a touch screen in my setup, so I'm uncertain how it works. But I do recall from using iGuidance on a PDA that you could, in 2D-view mode, tap-and-hold the map to open a pop-up menu with the weather option. This is unavailable in 3D-view mode I believe.

Other option would be to create a button on your screen which, when pressed, would send letter "W" to iGuidance. W-key is iGuidance built-in hotkey for weather.

Well Marvin was right. if you go into the 2d mode and press the screen for a few seconds so the right click menu come up you get some options
