RR-last version

I am using iGuidance UMPC 4.0, RR 11-2-07 (but I downloaded the new .exe 670 KB), and DigitalFX 3.0 (of course)

When I click save location I get the dialog box (Current Location) with the info on where I am at and the save button. When I click save the window goes away. When I go through the same proccess in iGuidance (stand alone UMPC) after I click save in the "Current Location" dialog box a second dialog box (Add to Favorites) comes up and I am able to Edit the name of the location or simply click OK to save.

So long story short, I cant get it to work in RR.

I search around a bit for this and had a look at the .skin file myself but I dont see why this is not working.

Thanx, Lew

Alright. I have hacked around with this for a few minutes and found a "work around".

I commented out this line like so

Code:

/B,1,450,75,72,"SENDKEY;c",

and added this line

Code:

B,1,450,75,72,"SENDKEY;%{f}{l}"

This will go straight to savign the location (not bring up the current location info)

This works okay, but it would be nice if it worked properly the other way. ex. Bring up the info and then click save and bring up the dialog to edit the name and/or just save it.

Edit:

I have settle on this:

Code:

B,1,450,75,72,"SENDKEY;%{f}{l}",@SENDKEY;c@

If you press "save location" it will just bring up the "Add to favorites" and you can do so (it works). If you press and hold "save location" it will bring up the current location dialog (selecting save still does nothing).

It works, Lew

Hi gang,

I'm trying to get my SN working and have some questions:

1. when I enter a onskinstart command line in rrconfig, DFX menus button's don't get text and don't switch to their respective functions. I noted that there's a exectbl file within the DFX skin folder, does this file have to have the additional onskinstart command listed in it? Or must I somehow append the command to the one already listed.

2. Similarly, if I want to have the SN send commands (to say, switch to a different screen) where do I place those?

Thanks

What in the world is a "SN" - Snot Nose?

But yeah, you can't have onskinstart in two places; add your new command to the back of DFX's.

Thanks treetop,

SN = Space Navigator.....

carputer1 · 07-04-2008, 12:17 PM

best idea is keep everything in the DFX exectbl, look for the onskinstart line in there, and add your bit to the end of it divided by ||.
remove any lines you have addd to another exectbl and just use John's 1 inside his skin folder.

as for any cmds you want to add , add to the same file, would be best on a separate line.

nasa · 07-04-2008, 01:46 PM

Is there a listing of commands the RR / DFX would respond too?

ie: if I send a command named "Audio" would RR/DFX translate that into loading the Audio screen?

Machinehead · 07-04-2008, 01:57 PM

Skincommands.txt in the RR folder.

carputer1 · 07-04-2008, 02:25 PM

sorry this is not a flame , but 300 post's and you have just descovered skin cmd's
lol.... sorry don't mean to put you down , just made me giggle, and remeber what i was like when i started out.

again this is not a flame

nasa · 07-04-2008, 03:09 PM

Carputer,

I have no issue with your statement, all it says is I can be a little slow (comes with old age).... Plus, I don't get to work on this as much as I would like. That said,

I followed your suggestion and changed the line to look like this:

"OnSkinStart","ExtraPrograms||SetTempBackground||S etApps||SetCommandLabels01||SetAppLabels||SetIcons ||PresetLoader||IGSettingLoader||SetLottoBlank||SE NDMSG;SpaceNavigatorDriver;HID;SpaceNavigator;Led on"

This leds to both RR and the SN drivers crashing... Did I misunderstand your suggestion?

Thanks

This is a test of the national weather alert...again...this is only a test....

Sorry, but as soon as I read that post, that is what came to mind...

carputer1 · 07-04-2008, 03:30 PM

like i said i was not to be taken as a flame, after posting i did think mmmm ,as there are alot of people who don't know nothing on how rr works, just use it, and others that have a bloody good try at it, and then the experts.

i'm in the bloody good try section i think.

if i'm wrong in anyway ,others will point my mistakes out on this

remove the sn stuff from that line and put snavi

now on a clear line put "snavi","xxxxxxxxxxxx"

the xxx's being your cmd line you had in onskinstart in your post.

I'm in the same boat.

I just answer questions, it's not worth the effort to get snarky anymore. Although I do understand the frustration of answering the same basic questions over and over.
