Increasing warning pop-ups/displays in size.

Postby naviboy » Wed Feb 10, 2016 5:56 pm

Anyone found a way to increase the sizes of the Speedcam warning pop-ups/display on the screen, rather than rely on the sound warnings.

To be more visual than what they are, as the sound warnings could be drowned by the radio/screaming kids etc..

The ones that are embedded in the navcore NO. 3rd party ones maybe. For 3rd party, go to TT HOME, Icons & images. Select any of the options. Scroll to the bottom of the page. Click the How to make your own link. Use those instructions to edit any 3rd party icons, that you have.

OK

i have made my poi pop-ups after some trial and error.

I've found the max. size used is 44 x 44 pixels and of 8bit colour format.

Congrats. Were the "How to make your own" instructions helpful?

Sorry, to be honest. No.

I searched the net to find icons I wanted to use with 3rd party speed cam data, using bmp for the images.

Had to find the largest size 'pixel' could be used and change the 'bit depth' to work with TomTom. I had played with 'dpi' which some say has to be changed, with no effect.

I used Photoshop to make the changes as although Win 10 default programs could change the 'pixel' size, but not the 'bit depth'.
