New Code Contribution

[MIB.42]

@deniska and MIB.42
Super work you two displaying lat/lon now works for all three formats:
DMS=0 Displays coordinates in DD.dddddd°
DMS=1 Displays coordinates in DD°MM.mmmm'
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...

[MIB.42]

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...

[deniska]

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.

[deniska]

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...
