Hi



As promised, here is the finger friendly input panel I've been working on. It is intended for users of 800x480 devices, and the size has been optimised to work with SkyDemon as far as possible.







The DLL and a copy of regsvrce can be found here



I can't really give any support for installing this at the minute, but the instructions are as follows:-



Copy both files into the Windows folder of your device.

Launch regsvrce.exe

Enter 'skysip.dll' into the box and tap OK

You now need to select the SkyDemon SIP. There are various ways of doing this - you can either do it in control panel, or by tapping the keyboard/pencil icon at the bottom right of the taskbar.



If you don't have access to your desktop, then you won't be able to use this for now.



I am planning in the future to package it up so it will work on devices that don't have access to the Windows CE shell. It shouldn't be an issue to integrate it into MioPocket for those people who are using that.



Please do not pester me about this though. It'll be done when it's done! Alternatively, now I've done the difficult bit, perhaps someone else could package it?

Thanks Steve, The major problem of the keyboard on high resolution devices seems to be solved.

Also, on my winCE 6 480 x 272 4.3" gps, the autoscript works perfectly & the 480 screen is automatically loaded.

On my two WinCE 5 gps units, I can't get the skysip480.dll to register using regsvrce.exe. Also tried manually importing the  registry keys from the WinCE 6 unit but as yet, no success. The "AutoSelectSIP.exe" also throws up errors.

Guess it's just a WinCE 5 issue. Lots about it on the net but nobody seems to have the definitive answer.

For those of you having problems, are you using WinCE 5 or 6?

Regards,

Max.

I built the DLLs against the WinCE 6.0 SDK so it's not really surprising they don't work on 5.0.



The AutoSelectSIP thing was written in C# linked against the .net 2.0 framework - so I'm not clear why that would throw an error though. It should just exit silently if it can't find a registered SIP called SkyDemon or SkyDemon480.



I'll see if there's a way of building it all against a 5.0 target.
