How To: Quick Lauch Buttons and other mods....


Recommended Posts

I have been experimenting on making changes to the Data.zip on another thread and I think I have got it to a point to share with the masses. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK, I am not responsible for any damage to your equipment. Learn how to mod you unit from other threads in this forum before attempting these changes.

 

This Data zip changes the following...

 

*Quick Launch Nav Menu while not Navigating.

*Moved/Cleaned Up Blue Boxes while navigating

*Stop Nav Button (see below to convert compass to stop nav button)

*Mute Nav Button

*Linear Compass (new style)

*Small tweaks throughout for looks

*Vehicle Arrow is my truck (see link below to change)

 

This data.zip keeps a stock look from the Pioneer unit but makes the design more consistent.

 

The only mod I can claim for myself is the quick launch...

Thanks to

Stephanie for posting so much info showing how the files work

brink094 for mute button mode

bitman for stop nav

skicrave for replacing the arrow

BorisM for helping with code questions

and I am sure others that contribute so much to making these units more usable.

 

Change Truck/Arrow Link

 

To make the compass the stop nav button in my data zip you need to change the following line in navigatemap_800_480.ui

 

;Stop Nav Button

 

with this

 

;Stop Nav Button

 

I have tried the quick links with 5 icons and ten but I don't use them all enough to warrent ten icons on there at a time so I included all the files you need to go either way. It is a matter of changing the code a bit.

 

Change this

 

;quick menu












 

with this

 

;quick menu







 

and not as long as you get the x and y positions right you can move the icons and use any combination of icons you want.

 

and here is the ZIP

Here's something form one of the more advanced iGO skins...

 

You have a button, with the ones you want to hide:

 

 

Pressing this button hides the layer (in your case it would be the shortcut layer, including the button itself) and displays the button below:

 

 

Pressing this button hides itself anв displays layer with shortcut buttons.

 

Just adjust layers/buttons/bitmaps to fit your changes and it should be fine.

Are you currently using the 5 button or 10 button?

 

Also if your using 5 which are they?

 

I am using the five button and I am using

 

*Destination Menu

*Home

*Enter Address

*History

*MSN - Traffic

the data.zip link you posted is not working, it is saying there is no valid archive. Any way you could upload it again.

 

I just tested it and it worked fine. Make sure you are not trying to open it before it is fully downloaded.

It downloaded fine for me.....

 

 

I just downloaded it and am wondering .... I opened to see the arrow image and it just shows an arrow... not your truck...

 

So I don't have to change that?

 

Thanks.....

 

no the one you download will be for 10 buttons. You will have to make the changes above to make it 5 buttons

 

and the truck is only there for 3d Map
