Added display memory so it will remember the last display color in each skin.

Chuck · 02-05-2007, 01:25 PM

Just drop these files in the chucks folder and rename without the .txt

The next release should be a snap to setup and change buttons, colors, skins and on and on.

I know I've probably said this before, but THIS SKIN IS AMAZING!!!!!

Had a chance this weekend to run ChuckX through its paces and at every turn I was saying WOW. Its going to take me weeks to open it up and figure out how some of this works, but after seing the light day skin in the car I'm almost ready to abandon my highly modified Mac-V2-Day shin for this. Gotta wait for Spring to put the top down and see what it looks like in direct sunlight.

Now for some requests:
1. Have you (or would you) link the two traffic screens, i.e., if you change the traffic city in the text skin it also changes the city in the traffic maps skin and vice versa (probably ony requires a couple extra commands be added to the exectbl.ini). And then incorporate buttons in each to jump to the other.

2. I'm still wrestling with whether I want tie also tie in the weather screens to the traffic ones, but (and I know you don't travel outside your region much) it wouldn't take much, i.e., I've already written the code, to expand the weather maps to a tiered system of 18 maps with 6 US maps, 6 regional maps, and 6 local doppler radar screens kinda like the 12-06-05 update.

This is definately the most full featured RR skin, keep up the good work.

Thanks GizmoQ

Lots of changes in the one I am working on now

Tying the 2 traffic things is no big deal but the weather radar thing would be tuff unless you have fixed cities in RR weather to pick from.
