DMS=2 Displays coordinates in DD°MM'SS''

But it still is only possible to edit the _MY_POIS file in the _map directory using decimal values I hope it will be possible to do this with the other two formats in the future.
I also noticed that the degree character ° can not be used when trying to enter a POI

But still I must say this tool is becoming more and more professional with each release.
Keep up the good work.

Yes, my next thing is to update the _MY_POIS reader...

Degree character when entering POI : deniska, we should add the degree character to the keymenus... I'll do that, 'key?

-implemented icons on the POI menu - the program scans the POI filenames for keywords to deside which icon to display
-converted all sorce to "C" (This is done so I could merger the recent changes to PSP-290 version, which I had problems compiling with C++ compiler.)
- removed forced "UpperCasing" from the menus
-minor bug fixes
-EBOOT.PBP and extra graphics included for those who wants to test this version

Looks cool, Im gonna test right now.

Is there in the future going to be a generic Mapthis, which covers both all receivers AND psp-290, because 2 versions seem to be difficult to code.

These are the four characters that we would need to be able to use all three input values.
I think only the first two are missing but not too sure about it as I haven't got my PSP here right now.

Go for it..
Sorry I kinda missed this post before...

Code is based on 0493.
New features marked with MIB.42_4 :

- deg/min/sec all supported ( I hope ), this includes POI related read/store/kbd_enter ( DMS = 0/1/2 ) and modifications to danzeff and num_.png files as well as conversion routines for both ways. ( Tried it on _MY_POI, added hybrid lines, all seem to work...)
- changed string rendering to accomodate above for both little and big fonts. For now I replaced the dollar sign with the degree sign and added degree/min/sec signs to the numeric input under the '7' section. See nums.png files...
- 'backspace' added for kbd input ( danzeff + png's )

I know it may not seem a lot, but it affects quite a few parts...

I hope to move on to more "fun" code, like extending the screenshot functionality to be able to save in jpg and automated saves...

cool..
I'll try to merge your changes with my latest base code and post the resulting code on Monday...
I did some merging of generic and PSP-290 version, so hopefully by monday we'll have one set of files for both versions, which should be easier to manage...

MIB.42;
Are we returning to the old graphics style? :(

deniska;
Oww nice one, both versions going forward together.

leaod, perhaps you can update those entry pads..
Also, could you outline the menu window a bit?
Make the edges a bit more opaque...
When it's displayed on top of other blue components the edges blend in so mauch you can't always tell where it ends...
