GpxSat Readout settings ?

FortKnox posted a pic in thread "Monza from the High One"

[www.grandprix3.com]

The pic shows the readouts of Fuel, Speed, Gear, Temp and Pos.

across the top of the display horizontally with a Blue background,

It looks real nice and I would like to use it.

I have GpxSat running but the display is vertical on the rt side of screen

without the nice blue backing. I see there are x,y co-ordinates but I

was never good at math like that.

Can anyone tell me how to do it ?

I asked the question in the original post but the guy must be too busy to reply or just didn't notice.

cheers

Yeah.......id like to know as well....read-outs seem better at the top(visually)
Any1 know the co-ordinates to use??

Please someone must know how to get them like that !?

in gpxpatch (3.33 at least) go to gpxCinfo and checkdefpanel.ini and edit it. (with the edit button.)

set Y=0 (top of screen)
and X=-6 should be top right, X=-106 will be 100 pixesl left.

my settings in defpanel.ini:

[Misc]
ShowInCockpit=1
Font=manana
[Gear]
Enable=1
X=-500
Y=0
[Revs]
Enable=1
X=-400
Y=0
[Speed]
Enable=1
X=-300
Y=0
[Fuel]
Enable=0
X=-6
Y=450

X=-200
Y=0
[Position]

[Pit]

Thanks so much !!!!!!!

and I would have struggled for hours to find out what x,y to use .


Once again your help very much appreciated dude...

Giving it a go now...

I think mine looks much better : - )

more logical layout and symmetrical

but good to have a choice !

I want to post a screenshot of my led readout but I am buggered if I can figure out how. On high gear forums it is very easy and explained.

heres mine.
compact and centered at 1600x1200.
seen here ->
[www30.brinkster.com]

WHO knows how the change position of the *Drivers Name* in upper left (that'll be the yellow arrow).
and change L to Lap, and T to Temp etc in the readouts.

and one more. change font size for the microtimer thingy.
