  • RE: Calculate if position is on direct line between two points

    Former Member
    Former Member
    Can't you just calculate a new bearing using your existing code to calculate the bearing from the current position to the target?


    I'm missing one value for that. With the formula for Cross-track distance I got the distance from my current position…

    Stopwatch made by Garmin not good enough.

    I would like the stopwatch (in milliseconds) with I can take multiple lap times, leaves them in the memory (at least six) and I can scroll through them with the up and down buttons.

    After start (enter button…

    I definitely understand that an additional layer is not ideal. The addition of POST is something we're looking at, and I'll continue to throw support behind it on your behalf. I can't make any guarantees--there may be technical reasons I'm not familiar…

    Hehe, no actually I do have the checks at compile time. I think there is at least one place in the above code where I use CONFIGURATION_GPS without checking if it exists, but also in a place in the code where it won't exist for old devices. I could also…

    Np. In general, it's best to do what jim_m_58 suggested and always use the latest production (non-beta) SDK. Newer SDKs will always support older devices, but the reverse (older SDKs supporting newer devices) is generally not the case.

    Hopefully the…

    Fenix7 also has bitsPerPixel: 8

    Also if I remember correctly then there are 2 types of palette64, with 62 or 63 colors being identical and have 1 color difference. At least that's what I found from compiler.json or simulator.json about a year ago.…

  • RE: Widget: METAR/TAF

    Sometimes, the widget is unable to parse the entire METAR information. For example, consider the following METAR:

    METAR EFTP 171950Z AUTO 18007KT 9999 OVC025 //////CB 18/17 Q1011=

    In this case, the TEMPS and BARO information is missing. It appears that…

    In gifs and probably also in pngs as well you can either have a palette (or "indexed") or RGB. I use gimp fir editing images, there you can change this before you save it. I'm sure most other image editors have similar options. If you don't find it then…

    Okay, what you want is a datafield which shows the MGRS of your position, except it is "adjusted" for a datum which is different from the "current" datum? Does that sound right?

    There are some old maps out there with 1927 datum, and…
