In brief response addressing each part in turn for clarity:

Further information was to be added as stated.

As source code, full and beta releases are open and public, there inherently was no provision of your intellectual property or anything whatsoever to which anyone could reasonably lay claim of exclusivity and ownership. Furthermore, the issues are immediately obvious upon cursory usage or testing.

Your spelling was not corrected. Amendment of incorrect terminology in GPS Cycle Computer was proposed as stated.

Then you have yet another misapprehension. Furthermore, the issues are immediately obvious upon cursory usage or testing.

As no one except yourself has your misguided and incorrect impressions and misapprehensions, it would not appear "others are as stupid". Furthermore, there were no statements regarding cognitive function or intellect of anyone detailed in the feedback provided to which you have taken exception without cogent reason.

Feedback was provided in the forum. One purpose the forum serves is as mechanism for provision of feedback. Post was therefore inherently where it belongs.

There is no requirement upon anyone to learn Czech, this being an English language forum with the posts therein in English. Furthermore there would arise no requirement to learn Czech before correcting an English language post either. Additionally, there was in fact no correction of your spelling, yourself or your English. Amendment of incorrect terminology in GPS Cycle Computer was proposed as stated.

Further information to be added.

The clarity is to not edit your previously posted messages to adding information in front of some other user messages adding the same information as you, telling the same by another words as the user under!

Everybody could imagine the reason for this behavior differently, so - thank you that you explain it.. :)

Hello Klaus,

I am not a programmer and probably you have already found the same as me, but if not:

at this page I found mentioned something maybe solution for you..

Yes, it seems it is an error..

but - unfortunately - there is no explanation or solution..

In brief response addressing each part in turn for clarity:

The information was not the same. It included amendment of incorrect terminology, about which you had made no mention, in GPS Cycle Computer proposed as stated, about which you alone had your misguided and incorrect impressions and misapprehensions. Furthermore, the only other information, about which you alone, again, have taken exception, without cogent reason, was immediately obvious upon cursory usage or testing by anyone and not exclusively observable or reportable only by yourself as detailed earlier, and intended from the outset to be included, the most pertinent being provided first. Further information was to be added as stated.

The fact is that it was you alone that had your misguided and incorrect impressions and misapprehensions.

Everyone else understood, and it has been implemented.

Unless you see fit to respond further, to which in turn further response shall be received, this shall be considered to be the end of the matter.

It is unnecessary to be programmer to understand the 'maybe solution' of browser dependence in the first link you provide, is in fact the exact problem attempts are under way to solve.

The explanation is that current documentation for Microsoft .NetCompact Framework on the Microsoft Developer Network analysed during earlier research at the time has a discrepancy. TextBox, see here, and RichTextBox, see here, are both listed as compatible with Windows Mobile and Windows CE under Platforms, but the latter not .NetCompactFramework under Versions, and that discrepancy went unnoticed.

The solution is essentially instead of using the preprepared features in .NetCF, the required feature is either utilised preprepared from a third party, or created from scratch in C# the same as anything else.

An example of such a solution that has been created is here. The example is provided to demonstrate it is achievable. There may be other examples.

Further information to be added.

I look forward to future feedback with interest from all users that take the time to actually positively contribute.

Thank you for the interesting feedback.

With regards to the error, to expand on this, screen grabs attached shows the error in full in 4.12beta18 in the Windows CE 5 Emulated Environment (to capture the error in its entirety, screen size had to be enlarged vertically). It occurs regardless of where GCC is installed, either in Program Files on device as per screen grab 1, or separately in a folder elsewhere as per screen grab 2, and upon using either method of selecting help in GCC. Upon pressing OK to dismiss the error notification, GCC resumes running normally.

With regards to whether or not help is essential on device, individual usage varies and is to be respected.

It can be anticipated a forthcoming beta release will address and resolve this error.

It can be stated any changes would not adversely affect any existing functionality or user.

I look forward to your future feedback with interest, as with that of all users that take the time to positively contribute.

Further information to be added.

Medion S3857 - buzzer

Hi, low.flying.pigs!

I'm still interested in getting buzzer of S3857 to indicate events requiring attention to devices screen such as approaching branches etc.. In post 2178 I've supplied reg-file and file list of /windows. If you're still involved in this matter, I'll gladly furnish you with any information I can obtain from S3857/S3867 device. If not - I've got to pay attention to S3857'screen all the time - or use S3867. cu - WolWer

Hello,

attached a new beta19:

- field2,3 bug resolved

- autohide renamed to auto hide

- 'show buttons by tap' improved

- Readme.htm: now shown again in external IE, because WinCE (emulated) can not show file in internal webbrowser. If there is no IE, then Readme.txt is shown in a TextBox. Don't forget to copy Readme.txt (included in http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=52087993&postcount=2209) in the application directory. I hope this works now on most devices.

Regards, Klaus

Hi, Klaus! Really great beta - not only improvements as mentioned, but also "return advise" on stops seem to be solved. Readme.txt is clearly indicated on both WIN CE5 devices. Tx & cu - WolWer
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] ElfKaa:
Hello Klaus,

thank you for the beta 19 which seems working well.

By the testing I found some ideas for improve some imperfections :)

At first, while "Auto hide" option is selected and also edit t2f was selected, then there is impossible to zoom. So idea is while editing t2f the info panel with the information like coordinates and zoom (at minimum) should be then visible and the buttons should stay activated (visible) until "edit t2f" is deselected again. So for editing the displaying all the corresponding editing information will be visible and then I have the mentioned idea to change the main menu button temporarily to "Waypoint" button - because what you do while editting the track? You are adding trackpoints and waypoints and also you can zoom and move the map - that is probably all :) So then the most left button can be the waypoint and will be added in the place of the last trackpoint (end point of the currect track - where was at last tapped - to me it seems logical, so you should not point exactly somewhere and hold to the menu appear then selecting "Add waypoint" and then write the name for it, you just tap on the left icon and the waypoint name dialog will be opened and the waypoint will be added to the trip.)

The Icon can look like the waypoint simmilar like this I made quckly the preview (attached).

What you think about this?

At second - the time to "auto hide" seems good now - 5 seconds, but a pitty that it is not adjustable or that you did not implemented the hide also on simple tap for to have an also to quickly hide them, if the buttons are shown..

Lukas
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] ElfKaa:
Aah and I forget the third thing:

When you have finished the editing and deselect the "edit t2f" in the menu then the main screen icon may probably be changed to Navigate icon. But the icon will not be changed and will be changed later - next time you enter the map screen, so now you have to return back to main screen and select map screen - now the navigate button is the most left icon, as it is logical like you made it, that you would like to select navigate as the next step..

Further to post 2220, and the above quoted comment, when implemented correctly, GPS Cycle Computer 4.1beta18 running in Windows CE 5 Emulated Environment can in fact show Readme.htm internally. There are a number of issues:

4.12beta18 does not handle Pocket Internet Explorer correctly, and does not switch to Readme.txt if not present.

4.12beta18 does not handle Internet Explorer 6 correctly, and does not switch to Readme.txt if not present.

This causes the error in screen grab 1 and 2 in post 2220. The issue with Pocket Internet Explorer requires further code amendment to resolve, however, the issue with Internet Explorer is resolved by usage of the correct file name.

iexplore.exe is Internet Explorer in Windows Mobile.

iexplore.exe is Pocket Internet Explorer in Windows CE as per screen grab 3. See here.

iesample.exe is Internet Explorer 6 in Windows CE as per screen grab 4. See here.

A modified 4.12beta18 was created as proof of concept for Internet Explorer 6 only by changing line 8123 Form1.cs from

if (ie.StartsWith("iexplore"))

to

if (ie.StartsWith("iesample"))

An Emulator Image that includes Internet Explorer 6 was also created for this purpose to use in conjunction. It can be observed that when the Emulator Image actually includes Internet Explorer, and when GCC correctly utilises it, Readme.htm displays internally as per screen grab 5. The minor issue with line wrap would be easily resolved, incidentally Readme.htm has a number of issues with different fonts and text sizes and general formatting when viewed in any browser.

The above was to have been added to post 2220, creation of the required Emulator Images having taken some considerable time and effort, and 4.12beta19 arriving in the interim.

Accordingly, the above can be addressed in a forthcoming beta enabling GCC handling of Readme internally on Windows Mobile and Windows CE as was the purpose of the exercise in the first instance.

Where PIE or IE6 is present on device on either OS, internal Readme.htm is used.

Where PIE or IE6 is not present on device on either OS, internal Readme.txt is used.

Three separate Emulator Images were created today 25 April as per screen grab 6. One without any browser, one with PIE, and one with IE6. All run faster than previous Images. Except for the PIE Image for which it is a dependency, aygshell.dll is removed. Additionally, the IE6 Image has every available locale and language added, but not the special language fonts, for testing the below:

Further to post 2205, it is confirmed this issue arises due to Korean locale. This can be observed when the Emulator Image in usage actually includes Korean locale as per screen grab 7 and 8. Accordingly, this can be addressed in a forthcoming beta. There may be other languages and locales that cause similar issues, or other issues for similar reasons.

Information regarding this will follow in due course.

Further information to be added.

You are nice :) but we have now beta 19 (which is working well at all) - so this message is obsolete now :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] low.flying.pigs:
Post 2226 is is no way whatsoever obsolete at all as is self evident from the post itself. 4.12beta19 addresses nothing therein, and nothing of what would have been therein had it not been derailed by yourself.

Your statement could in fact be perceived as disrespectful and offensive not only to myself but also to the users that were being addressed whose issues remain at this time unresolved, that you have dismissed out of hand as obsolete and thereby irrelevant. One of those users represents an entire nation of users that would have the same issue, and others globally with the same underlying issue. The other represents users of a Windows CE device, and similar Windows CE devices, globally, you have from the outset and throughout to date sought to frustrate progress and development on, in addition to that in general.

Your statement is again exactly the kind that discourages and dissuades other users from contributing to the considerable detriment of the project as exhaustively previously documented.

The cumulative lasting incalculable damage of such conduct to the project vastly out ways any comparatively minimal trivial benefit of any more positive and productive contribution you have made, which pales in to insignificance in comparison.

It is straightforwardly apparent the only obsolescence is your again entirely pointless interjection that contributes absolutely nothing whatsoever, again.

Your posts are indeed often funny, either in whole or in part, in the sense of funny peculiar. It has been suggested that you are in fact a troll, or as a minimum, often engage in conduct consistent with that of a troll. It has been further suggested the similarity between troll and an elf may be of significance. It has been still further suggested the incessant usage of emoticons is indicative of a juvenile.

Hence the provision of the Edit button for avoidance of entirely unnecessary forum congestion and entirely unnecessary post count inflation. There arose no necessity whatsoever to post 2225 when 2224 immediately before it could have been edited, as would be normal conduct.

Post 2211 and 2213 detailed how this could be done.

Your response in post 2214 was a bizarre, abnormal and irrational reaction based upon an imagined correction of your spelling that had not occurred and other misguided and incorrect impressions and misapprehensions, coupled with demand to learn a foreign language, thoroughly addressed in subsequent posts. Note, it is only bizarre, abnormal and irrational in consideration of a normal individual acting normally. It is however conduct entirely consistent with that of a troll.

Unless you see fit to respond further, to which in turn further response shall be received, this shall be considered to be the end of the matter.

I look forward to future feedback with interest from all users that take the time to actually positively contribute.

Further information to be added.

Hello Klaus,

I have tested the GCC beta 19 for the pause issue I mentioned previously.. The message of I if I´d like to continue will still appear if I pause the GCC, take the bike into metro and go a few stations.. Then after I unpause the GCC will tell me after fixing again to GPS that I am a few kilometers far from the place where I paused and if I´d like to continue.. This message is annoying because I really like to continue if I paused.. Nevermind how much kilometers I went during the pause, if I would not like to continue, then I will simply press stop button which is still there for to have this option also.. And this message will appear after few minutes after the GCC will fix again to the signal. So, please, remove the check for this while paused.. There is no reason to not continue after unpause..

Maybe if I will press stop instead of pause, it may not happened as it will - while pressing play button again - ask me to continue or not directly at the moment while I pressing the play button. Even that - if I will the Pause instead - I think I should not been asked to continue anymore..

low.flying.pigs is always funny :) trying to explain me what I was telling.. :D

And the speculation about my nick is very humorous.. Also should be humorous to speculate why he is low flying pig :cyclops:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] low.flying.pigs:
Pretence of attempt to pass as a legitimate participant is often a classic trait of trolling.

This has been addressed repeatedly. Ordinarily, if when resuming logging the current position is not within 1km of the last position, it is a necessary design feature of GCC that Confirmation prompt is shown to determine whether the user actually wishes to continue logging in such a circumstance, as it is by no means obvious they actually would.

As detailed previously, the issues can be resolved with the proposals in post 2161 explained further in post 2164, in brief, by not triggering the prompt in any circumstance unless GPS has been switched off. It can be further addressed by not triggering the prompt in any circumstance following an automated restart of GPS by GCC when signal has been lost for a period of time.

Posting for reaction is a classic trait of trolling.

Pretence of misunderstanding is a classic trait of trolling.

The speculation of users negatively affected by your conduct is not regarding your user name. It is regarding your motivations for your conduct which are indicative of trolling as was clearly stated. A similarity between troll and an elf was noted as being of potential significance.

Furthermore, the users negatively affected by your conduct are not amused, unlike yourself both amused and unrepentant having achieved your objective. Given however that such conduct does and has damaged the project as has been exhaustively previously documented, it needs to be tackled, and will continue to be. Undoubtedly you will nonetheless persist as you have to date.

Deriving humour from others is a classic trait of trolling.

Unless you see fit to respond further, to which in turn further response shall be received, this shall be considered to be the end of the matter.

I look forward to future feedback with interest from all users that take the time to actually positively contribute.

Oh children! Were you not able to behave like adults?

Each one of you is very valuable to me and the project GCC. I don't want to loose either one of you. Neither I want to loose some other user who contribute positively to the project due to this kindergarten (playschool).

You, low.flying.pigs, are a very thorough tester with a really deep knolledge in software technical aspects and you are able to find really all necessary information. Thank you very much.

And you, ElfKaa, are also a very thorough tester who tests GCC in real practice and real life of a biker. You have a really good understanding and feeling of how an application should operate and how it should be operated. Thank you very much.

And now stop this kindergarten and behave like adults,

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] low.flying.pigs:
In brief response, it is already far too late as has been previously exhaustively documented, most recently briefly summarised in part in post 2142.

As detailed in an extract therein: ..... forms a reason why GCC does not have a thriving community of technically skilled individuals, some professional, actively participating. It is not because such people are not currently, or were not until relatively recently, amongst the user base.

These issues have been exhaustively documented previously on forum. The cumulative lasting incalculable damage of such user conduct to the project vastly out ways any comparatively minimal trivial benefit of any more positive and productive contribution such a user may make, which pales in to insignificance in comparison.

An unfortunate resultant consequence the GCC project suffers to this day and is unlikely to recover from, is that enthusiastic beta testers, innovators, developers and contributors in general who would otherwise have given their time, effort, knowledge, skills and experience, asking for and expecting nothing in return, are discouraged and dissuaded to the detriment of the GCC project and users in general, unfortunately some unlikely to actively contribute again, and certainly not directly, others having already moved on away from GCC. Whilst many good natured people will work on thankless tasks, they will not do so in return for what can be perceived as disrespect and abuse. .....

An earlier intervention long ago might have made a difference. Disparaging people now as children is unlikely to help.

That includes an inherent presumption of remaining. There comes a point where even I must consider, as others have done before me, whether or not to actively continue at all with GPS Cycle Computer.

The technical challenges have been interesting, there is much done that has not been submitted as yet, and much to do in the future, but the question of whether those challenges holds sufficient interest any longer to alleviate and warrant the unnecessary hassle is an increasingly fine balance.

Creating modified betas from source code, and three emulator images from scratch to enable proper testing and evaluation of specific issues is by no means an easy or quick task. To be dismissed out of hand as obsolete and thereby irrelevant on the basis of no cogent reason whatsoever is hardly motivational. It is lamentable the similarly dismissed extensive information awaited regarding Windows CE had no opportunity to be provided in post 2226.

Further information to be added.
