Can i create my own poi/waipoints icons on mobile xt 500.60
I think it should work. If POI Loader works for you, EPE should work too. Please do try and let us know.
1). I found that symbol size is the same size of icon from firmware. (Nice !! :) )
2). Speed alert works fine now.:love:
Thanks. Good to know. Yes, I am still alive. Just a bit tired with all the work at the office. I should be releasing something soon with the custom wav audio alerts.
Hello ,
I Have a Garmin nuvi 660 and when I put the .gpi file in /garmin/poi , this file is shown under WhereTo/Extra as "POI made with EPE"
Can I change this name in something others ( Like "Camperplaces" or "campings")
Greets,

:running:
Ok. I'll use your .gpi file name as the name of the category. It seems different GPS uses different strings in the file.
Edit: Fixed and added to next release.
I completely forgot to post the link that fixes this issue. Let me know if it works for you.Quote:

Ok This is better now.The .gpi file is now the same as my original poi-file (instead of "POI Made with EPE"
Very good work! Thanks a lot

I read some information about directional POI.
It seems possible to specify a direction or even multiple directions to trigger an alert. Each direction can be unidirectional or bi-directional. You just specify the bearing angle with a tolerance. For example, bearing 57 degrees with a tolerance of +/- 25 degrees. This way you are sure to hit the mark without making the alert bi-directional. If you specify the alert is bi-directional, it will also trigger the alert at 237 degrees (57+180) with the same +/- 25 degrees tolerance.
Pretty cool. The normal POI Loader cannot chew those bearing information, but GPI Creator can. Maybe EPE will do it too.. ;)
I checked the different delievered XSD files, only the GPI_XML.xsd carries the Bearing information, and the gpx file must have the "v3 GPX_EXT.xsd" Tag
I would love to see the bearing type, especially for speed camerasCode:<!-- ************************************* -->

<!-- Example: If given angle is 120 and range value is 25, yields an angle range of 95 to 145-->
