So far I am fairly impressed with the unit - will be modding it for Ozi explorer & the newest Igo tonight, but so far - really good unit!

Just fyi - I have the newest Mio Pocket running on this unit new - Mio Pocket 4!

Milky,
Does the 7" screen run at a lower resolution using this menu ? How does it look.

As RaZz0R said above, just need to resize the background image. Or use your own image - doesn't matter what image you use.

Sorry for the continuing questions, but this is the first time I've dabbled in changing config files.

What am I doing wrong here. I've resized the background image to 800x480 and changed the resolution in the GPS.ini as below.......................



The background changes no problem, but as you can see in this screen shot, the icons remain as they were in the smaller screen........



Cheers, Murray

In the GPS.ini file the x and y values set the location of the icons and text.

Scroll down to:
# TOP BAR BUTTONS/ICONS

and change the x values. Once you figure it out is is pretty easy.

Have fun

Thanks for your help Mike. I thought that might be the case, but not sure. I'm guessing you can re-size the icon images themselves too.
It has been fun learning this stuff, and it's great being able to edit on the PC before loading it to the GPS unit.

Cheers, Murray

Mike,
I've managed to organise the screen layout and I've redirected the paths for the program buttons, except for Windows CE. iGo and Ozi work fine, but when I push the Windows CE button it goes to the screen in the pic below. I tried directing it to \Nandflash\windows\explorer.exe (I added \Nandflash) but that didn't work.
What file path have you got for accessing explorer.exe on your 7" unit ?

Cheers, Murray
