|
|
Hi All,
I also tried CMS today and have to confirm that CMS speed is smaller than OSD display. Nevertheless CMS is realy great feature for biking! I would like to ask you if it is difficult to implement MAX Speed to CMS?
Many thanks for this amazing application

Customizable CMS layout is the only way to please all users . And I let's me hand the painful (for me) job to design the CMS screen(s) over to other people. I'd like to hear designers opionions on the layout format, if it's missing something etc...
It's just early proof-of-concept prototype; making more variables available for the layout (avg/max speed, time, distance travelled etc) is for me - compared to UI design - piece of cake .

Eh, as for the speed in CMS... imagine it multiplied by 1.852...

How simple things can be - the font image size limit can be easily solved by having chars in the bitmap in a few rows .

I have changed the font image (made font smoother) and tested with PNG file size 2.5kb without any problem on my Nokia 6230i, fw3.40.

I could load 5000xsomething, but not 5120x80...
Here's the CMS layout configuration proposal:
| Code: |
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<cms version="1.0">
<!--
bgcolor: CMS bg color
fgcolor: text default color
nxcolor: text color for negative changes eg. deceleration
pxcolor: text color for positive changes eg. acceleration
-->
<colors bgcolor="ffffff" fgcolor="000000" nxcolor="ff0000" pxcolor="0000ff"/>
<!--
font definitions binds symbolic names with font bitmap files
-->
<fonts>
<font name="96px" file="font.96px.png"/>
</fonts>
<!--
screen layout for fullscreen
* variables and constants provided by TB are in {} brackets
* area may refer to a font defined above to be used for drawing value/text;
* value (child of area) may contain variable or static text only, variable + static text mix or even multiple varaibles mixed with static text (not implemtended yet ;-)
-->
<screen mode="full" w="208" h="208">
<area x="0" y="0" w="208" h="16">
<value>{coords}</value>
</area>
<area x="4" y="48" w="160" h="80" font="96px">
<value>{spd}</value>
</area>
<area x="160" y="48" w="48" h="20">
<value>km/h</value>
</area>
<area x="160" y="68" w="48" h="60">
<value>{spd-d} m/s</value>
</area>
<area x="0" y="144" w="104" h="24">
<value>{alt} m</value>
</area>
<area x="104" y="144" w="104" h="24">
<value>{alt-d} m</value>
</area>
</screen>
</cms>

I thing that CMS XML layout was great idea, IMHO there is nothing to change in your layout configuration, everybody can modify it acording his vision. Maybe the possibility to have more then one fonts (font sizes) used in layout would be good for beter layout design. BTW, how can I change the font color of new added area value? (font color is blue if I add new area field)

You can use more fonts already (did not test it, though).
Colors are intended to work like this: nxcolor/pxcolor colors are used for xxx-d variable (when the value decreases/increases), fgcolor for other variables and text. There may be a bug that color is not set to fgcolor after any xxx-d variable is drawn...
It appears it would be nice to have font color adjustable per area, right? I'll add fgcolor attribute to area element. I'll also change font bitmap handling to use the 8 rows x 16 columns "structure".

Posted: Sun Mar 18, 2007 12:08 pm Post subject: Loading Atlas |
|
|
I have also tried to run the new version which came in the cms.zip file presented here at forum a couple of days ago.
I have some problems loading my atlases in this version. I have created a folder in root directory in my memory card with the name "trekbuddy" and in that folder there is all folders which was recomended to have. My atlases is then in the folder called "maps".
Am I doing right so far?
The problem is when i try to load an atlas. I end up with several NullPointerExceptions, perhaps one for every folder in atlas or every map tile , i dont realy know, but it realy is annoying
After accepting every exception it seems that atlas is loaded.
The question is what am I doing wrong. I have a SE K750i.

Sounds like a bug to me. I'll check it tonight.
Edit: Problem I have on K750 that map scrolling now runs too fast...I can't believe I have to think how to solve too high framerate

Hm, interesting. To fast. I have experienced problems with atlas not following position smoothly when moving to fast, in a car or so. The problem is that trekbuddy has not been able to move map as fast as it should. Is this the problem you are talking about?
I have thougth that it was a problem connected to the switch to next image in atlas, becuse it seems to happen more often when that is going to happen.

What phone do you have?
On my Nokia 5500 I never had such problem - even in speeds above 120 kph...
