Awesome idea, cant get your app to fire though. Everytime I bring up the osk I get this error and after clicking 'ok' it crashes.

good work, gonna try it out.

lostreception · 09-16-2006, 12:36 AM

So far this works for me
Tidder
JohnWPB
and im assuming Marvin Hlavac

Is it loading properly for anyone else or is it not functioning for everyone who has downloaded it

I noticed that it works outisde of RR. It works the first time i load iguidance in RR but after that i get that runtime error. Also i noticed with the GPS coordinated that when you enter a Lat command and Long command the top of the IG screen goes away like the X and the go back button.

Tried it in RR. IG-Q crashed, started it again, worked over and over and over again, then crashed, restarted, worked once, then crashed, restarted, and worked a bunch of times, then crashed. I think you get the picture.

This is latest version of the RR, and with IG NOT native, XP

Wish I had more to help you.

patcher does not work with modified exe.

iG stand alone, IG-Q didn't work at first, so restarted a few time now works.

In RR, get runtime error 28

Oh no.....any chance of getting the hacks you made so they can be incorporated with other changes that have been made to the exe (and so we can include custom images)? I'm specifically asking in relation to Justintime's IGNexus mods.

First, I'd like to thank LostReception for this hack. This is really neat, and will, one day, prevent me from having a big car accident I'm sure!!

While it works great on my system, I've found a small "bug" in the way it behaves when you do not type the whole streat name. This is what happen when you:
1. "type" the first characters of a street name
2. click on the name you want in the window (or use the arrows to select another name)
3. "type" OK

Normal iGuidance:

IGQ iGuidance:

With IGQ, it does not "pick" the selection done with the mouse (or the arrows), and keep the first name from the list, offering a "1-99" street number range (the one from the "TOURNESOL" street instead of the "TOURNESOLS" street).

This is not a huge problem, but force to "type" the full street name, which is some case could be cumbersome.

Not sure if it is something than can be corrected, but if yes, then that would make your hack PERFECT! If not, you may want to get rid of the "arrows" buttons and use the space for something else, as the arrows don't work.

Thanks for your great work!

After a reboot it seems to work fine on my machine. Thanks, and great job!

Thank you for pointing that out ill see if anything can be done im sure ill figure something out

lostreception · 09-16-2006, 01:54 PM

possible temporary fix:
i think part of the stack ovewflow problem the runtime error 28 is that:
when running the program on a faster machine it executes the search for window command so quickly that it unintentinally searches too many times for vb to handle i am going to build some more error handling and work on that in the meantime you can try to slow down the code from executing so fasy by adding a debug-igq.text file to the dir that iGQwerty is in

not ice it is "debug-igq.text" not debug-igq.txt. this is actually a typo on my part and once that file is in the dir iGQwerty will create a debug-igq.txt file and log a debug file
by doing this it give it mre things to do in the meantime then fill up the stack
give it a shot it might work

if not im still working on the error handling

Using reshacker. This will make your iG compatible with lost's OSK. The other thing the patch does is adds back in the coordinates dialog, but it's not needed for this.
