A Simple UX for Nextgen

@Morco

Once again, thx very much for your great us. Uses this within my iGO Pal Navigation app and modified your ux a 'little' bit. I'm not a coder, only 'changed' some strings here and there ;)

I do not get fixed one part. Next exit on motorways. See picture please:

}

TEXT.exitinfo {
left: -615%; top: (screen_h/12); right: 100%;

textmodel_wstr:"other.highway_drive.first_exit.name_enc";
wordwrap: 2;
visible:(%lua.exit);

I've changed the values for left; top; right, but the position of the text is not fixed.

I thought that the text has always on same gap/space to top, but it changes.

Any idea how to fix it?

@Morco

No idea? :))):angel:

Hi,

I will take a look when I can.

:)

Working with Nextgen is a total nightmare for an amateur like me, Primo was much easier.



please read post #23 in the link below

This works in the same way.

So the coded position will move a little as buttons come & go. Note the extra button in 'highway mode ' as shown in your images & see from my image how the buttons bunch up.

Attaching the code to the sidelist helps to keep the coding as simple as possible, but it does have drawbacks, this being one of them.

I don't know of a way to stop this movement but is possible to work around it.

below shows a less than ideal way of doing it because at the moment I can't remember the more refined way.

add this to morco_button_portrait.css, so you will now have one set for when on regular roads and another set when on a highway

Code:

---

TEXT.exitH {
left: -615%; top: (screen_h/20); right: 0%;
font: defaultbd;
fontsize: 32;
color:#FFFFFF;
color2:#FFFFFF;
glowtype:1;
glowsize:2;
align:"LEFT";
paddingleft: 0;
paddingright: 0;
textbuiltin.format(L"%{distance}",%other.highway_drive.first_exit.distance));
wordwrap: 1;
visible:(%lua.exit && %navigation.car.is_on_highway && %other.highway_drive.first_exit.distance >0);
}

TEXT.exitinfoH {
left: -615%; top: (screen_h/12); right: 100%;
font: defaultbd;
fontsize: 32;
color:#FFFFFF;
color2:#FFFFFF;
glowtype:1;
glowsize:2;
align:"LEFT";
paddingleft: 0;
paddingright: 0;
textmodel_wstr:"other.highway_drive.first_exit.name_enc";
wordwrap: 2;
visible:(%lua.exit && %navigation.car.is_on_highway);

---

this controls visibility (on & off) when not on the highway

Code:

---

!%navigation.car.is_on_highway

---

this controls visibility (on & off) when on the highway

Code:

---

%navigation.car.is_on_highway

---

The new set I have called TEXT.exitH & TEXT.exitinfoH ( the 'H' for highway)

you will need to add to the morco_button.ui

Code:

---

<TEXT CLASS="exitH" >
<TEXT CLASS="exitinfoH" >

---

you will then need to adjust the Hieght in the highway set to match the hieght of the regular set.

This might take a bit of working out because you will not be able to use route simulation to test.
:)

I've remembered how i've done this before, the simpler better way

In the example below the line to use is

Code:

---

top:(%navigation.car.is_on_highway ? 500% : 50%);

---

this roughly reads -

if on the highway then display the info at 500% from the top, - (car is on highway),

if not then display the info at 50% from the top, - (car is on a regular road),

So you dont need to use the method from my post above :)

Code:

---

TEXT.exit {
        left: -180%;
        top:(%navigation.car.is_on_highway ? 500% : 50%);
        right: 5%;
        font: defaultbd;
        fontsize: 32;
        color:#F78609;
        color2:#FFFFFF;
        glowtype:1;
        glowsize:2;
        align:"LEFT";
        paddingleft: 0;
        paddingright: 0;
        text:(builtin.format(L"%{distance}",%other.highway_drive.first_exit.distance));
        wordwrap: 1;
        visible:(%lua.exit && %other.highway_drive.first_exit.distance >0);
}

Thx very much.
First test looks quite good in simulation. Will try your modifikation in real navigation and report back.

This UX has been made for Nextgen Luna

Only one function at the moment -

Button on navigation screen, toggles Mute/Unmute

:)

Hello @morco
Could you please, prepare a UX that replaces the screen-capture to a "White Camera" icon?
Thank you

@kwbs
How about my [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] modifikation?
