How to show 2 or more POI att the same time
 
It has to be possible, i had it yesterday, by playing around with city center poi that shows all the time, but i chose to use dont show icons and lost it cant get it working again, and the icon for city center is back to its original circle, i guess it is reading it from navboot.
There has to be a way around this as i said the city center is shown all the time and with oter poi-s so how do we get this to work with for instance diferent type of cameras.

Any help is wellcome

You can get a POI and city center icon (bullseye) to show at the same time if you are on a large scale (125 - 450 yards) but thats all. There is no way to display more than one PI icon at the same time.

I did not mean to show bullseye, what i did and still am trying to do is to show 2 diferent icons att the same time maybe gasstation and speed cam,
You say it is not possible, well it has to be i made it for a short while and then lost it, the bullseye is an poi as well as the others ? how come it allways shows, wher is the data located ? can we change it to something else speedcam maybe ?

I tried that with no success wnated to show Fixed and Mobild cameras with different icons, I thought I might be able to replace the city center POI with one type and then select the other type but I got fed up with making DVD coasters! The bullseye icon appears to be coded differently to the other POI icons, it may be directly in the firmware.

Change your search HTML so that you can search for Fixed, Mobile or both.
You'll have to adapt the URL file to suit.

You cannot change the icons, but you can change what you want to see.

Yes, I did that!

Actually I have : All, All Fixed, Mobile, Red Light and Temporary, each with different icons, but what I can't do is have different icons for each type on the screen at the same time.

Can you explain what you mean by this (an example would be nice)

Add a field to the URL file that uses just a single character to represent whether the camera is Fixed or Mobile.
eg:
F=Fixed
M=Mobile

eg: see this header for an example:
POSWGS:S:21|NAME:S:32|VILLAGE:S:24|CITY:S:21|STREE T:S:38|HOUSENUMBER:S:5|PHONE:S:13|bBMW:B:1

the last entry bBMW:B:1 means
b = Byte
BMW = name
B = Boolean (True, False)
1 = length of 1 character

So you could used a name of eg bFIXED:B:1

Then for every speed camera entry in the URL entry you add the field to indicate if it is fixed (T for True) or mobile (F for False).
Then compile the IDX file so it matches.

Then modify the HTM search form to provide the ability to select the camera type you want.

CHECK BOX EXAMPLE
eg: for the above BMW example, I have this code
<TD ALIGN="LEFT">
<INPUT NAME="bBMW_beq" TYPE="CHECKBOX" VALUE="T">
</TD>
<TD></TD>
<TD COLSPAN="3" VALIGN="MIDDLE">
Authorised BMW dealers only
</TD>

So by ticking the box, the search for only finds authorised dealers, which are those with the entry of "T". In this case, T = True, F = False

Adapting the above for my example of TYPE =
<TD ALIGN="LEFT">
<INPUT NAME="bFIXED_beq" TYPE="CHECKBOX" VALUE="T">
</TD>
<TD></TD>
<TD COLSPAN="3" VALIGN="MIDDLE">
Fixed cameras only
</TD>

MENU BOX EXAMPLE
You can do the same with a menu like this
<TD BGCOLOR="#000000" ALIGN="LEFT">
<SELECT NAME="FIXED">
<OPTION VALUE="" SELECTED>Any</OPTION>
<OPTION VALUE=T>Fixed</OPTION>
<OPTION VALUE=F>Mobile</OPTION>
</SELECT>
</TD>
<TD></TD>
<TD COLSPAN=3 VALIGN="MIDDLE">Speed camera type
</TD>

Of course, you can define the character yourself (T or F) to whatever you want
Clear?
