Dave W Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 I've put together an app that works with OziExplorer and supports Irish Grid, it acts as an overlaid keyboard for Ozi explorer and gives you a Garmin style GPS arrow over the top of the moving map and ways to add/edit/delete waypoints among other things. I wrote it because I found OziExplorer too fiddly to use with a touchscreen in competition so put it together as a touchscreen overlay aimed specifically at challenge navigation. I mentioned this on another discussion about X Nav so maybe that was where the connection was made ? cheers Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonr Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 X-Nav doesn't currently support Irish Grid - but when I get half an hour to my self - there is no reason it could not. I was planning a bit of a Mk2 with a few extra features later in the year anyway. Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pongo Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 For Memory Map users, I have the irsh grid data file, but I can't upload it to the forum, it won't let me upload this type of file. Anyone help me out with how to do it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave W Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 The intention is to release it as freeware once I've stopped adding new stuff to it. I've got to finalise a version in the next week or so so I can make sure it's working OK before the Muddy Truckers. Anyone interested in a test version PM your email address, screen resolution (so I can pre-check the button placement). I've only tested it on XP so far as that's what my Nav PC runs. cheers Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
