UX In A Nutshell - The Function Of Each UX PLUG-IN

**Texas** · 17th January 2016, 10:34 PM

Dear navigators....

I hope to find all you in good health and happiness.

IT IS TIME TO DEMYSTIFY UX FOLDER

UX folder has been the source of many cool features for our navigation but most of us are using 90% of its function without any deep knowledge of it or what is the function of each plug-in. After so many posts in this forum regarding the UX folder and the function of its plug-ins I decided to create this thread to help new members and maybe some old members (myself included) to better understand behavior of our navigation. In order to avoid confusion I decided to create some sort of system how to do it and I ask you to help me.

Credits
Version - NextGen or PRIMO
Naming convention
Description
Issues - (with certain skin or version
Screen-shot from navigation (if possible) - to better understand the function and description.

DISCLAIMER:
In order to avoid spam, or endless comments I have a suggestion. If you have some plug-ins and know what the function is can you please share it with me via PM. I will post it here and give credits to any person who contribute to this. Just upload your screenshot and send me the link along with other data in PM ([Only registered and activated users can see links. ] or any other image service) This is to avoid questions, comments and to make it clear and neat looking for everybody. Simply send me email with the following info:

Admins and mods do you agree with this? Thank you

please a ux of screen camera saving and split poi because i use original pioneer skin.Thank you Τexas

**Texas** · 18th January 2016, 12:56 AM

The way I see it, some of these options come with skin (not specific ux plugin). Options like (split screen or camera screen-shot) come along with the specific skin. I am not 100% sure but so far this is the only way to have these options available. Simply with appropriate skin. If I find more info on this matter I will get back to you. This is why I started this post to make it clear for everybody what each plug-in does. I need help from everybody, there are so many plug-ins we need to describe and explain. I hope others will join us send me explanation/screen-shots/description of some plug-ins they are familiar with.

P.S:
As I said before I am a newbie too, learning curve is too steep but we have time

**De5i** · 18th January 2016, 09:14 AM

With regards to the GPS-2D-3D plugin this works but the issue with this plugin is that the transparency setting of the skin is not applied to this plugin. The transparency worked fine on this plugin up till version "g" of Pongo skin and then became an issue from Pongo skin version "h" onward. This is also the case on the latest Pongo Avic skin.

Hope someone can provide information on how to get the transparency settings fixed for this plugin.

Can you keep this thread alive? There are tens of uxs and all we can do is guess what they are for.Thanks.

**josemapiro** · 5th March 2016, 10:54 PM

hi, is there any UX-utility HUD (Head up display) for igo Nextgen?

**Zeljko01** · 8th March 2016, 07:31 PM

Dear friends,

as far as i know, option for for camera screen shot doesn't depend of any skin. in your sys file you should have theese lines

[interface]
;vga=1 ;for HD & QHD
extra_settings=1
save_checksum=0
maxzoom2d=6000000
minzoom2d=15
;show_glonass=1

the point is in that line - extra settings=1

After that, on main iGO Primo screen you will have aditional options, one of them is Capture Screen, and you will have Capture Screen button...

Cheers
