[1.9.4]

1.9.4 i love it YES YES, Thanks!!!

EDIT: One final remark  :oops: i see that the filtering for {orient_gps_shift} has been implemented. But now when i am not moving, it defaults back to value 0. So each time i am standing still, gps heading jumps pointing north. I would like it to keep the last value instead. As such my orientation is kept in the same direction when i am standing still, and continues to update when i am moving again...  :roll:

Further: GREAT , i have tested all {orient_gps_shift}, {orient_gps_angle}, {orient_course_opposit}, and they all point in the right direction!!!

Great work!

Hi, thanks again, once more...  

I will check, soon i will be able to show you a first version of my 'sailing' skin
(first for tablet, later for smaller screen as well)

[{orient_gps_shift}]

Aaaarghhh...

Allmost done, but in need for one more parameter / {action}...
To complete my 'sailing skin', i need something you did with {guide_wpt_angle}, calculated from {orient_course} and {guide_wpt_azim}...
Which is {orient_gps_shift} - {orient_course}, call it something like {orient_gps_angle}
It gives me the real direction in which we are moving...

Thanks

YES YES Thanks! (Can't wait for the update...)

Just an idea of what i am working on  

[{orient_course}]

Dear Menion,

I like your product a lot, and i am playing with screen customization for a while with great succes. I have a few questions:

A) Unfortunately i am in a despirate need for a new {action}. (or perhaps it's already there but i couldn't find it) You provide the {orient_course} variable, which can be used to rotate the compass scale accordingly. What i would like to have is the possibility to move the compass needle...
In other words: If my course orientation is NE, the rotateview rotates the image 45 degrees counter clockwise, such that NE points up.
What I would lik instead is that my rotateview holds an image of the compass needle, and rotates this 45 degrees in clockwise (opposit) direction.

Any help on this matter is appriciated very much.

B) Besides, but less urgent, it would be great to have another {action} variable that holds the angle between last gps position and the previous gps position, which is not neccesarely the same. (although my boat is heading towards one direction, it will drift due to the wind. as a result, the actual course might be very different from my heading)

C) Is it possible to calculate with multiple {action} variables? Example:

Code Select Expand

locus:action="{guide_wpt_angle} - {map_rotate}"
D) Finally i'd love to know if it is possible for me to define buttons in my custom screen that hold actions like "zoom" or "select map" or "start recording track"?

Thank you so much for your time,

Rudolf
