MyWorldMap plugin V 1.0 RC5 (Google Maps and Virtual Earth) (1 Viewer)

Re: MyWorldMap plugin V 1.0 RC2 (Google Maps and Virtual Earth)

Has anyone managed to solve the missing virtual keyboard problems? I have no problem on my system using MP 1.0.2 but several users/testers have reported no virutal keyboard displays.

For me, the keyboard is only half showing.
It is cutoff on the right side because it's placement on the screen is wrong.

If this could be fixed, it would be an excellent plugin once again.

I'm using the latest MP SVN, the latest version of BlackGlass Skin, and the new installer posted above.

Here it works fine (MP 1.1.0 Beta and latest SVN, Win7 x64).
The display of the virtual keyboard is a bit tricky. It took me some time to adjust it without cutting edges, because in Worldmap the keyboard is displayed relative to the button location for "street", "city", "land" etc. So a skinner has to layout the buttons in that way that the keyboard is fully shown.
I think some skinners aren´t aware of this

I had the same experience as Catavolt and it was very tricky to get the virtual keyboard to display nicely.

I just wanted to report back that if anyone is missing the virtual keyboard altogether, they should install RC3. That has cleared up the problem for all user/testers who had reported the problem to me.

I am and was using the RC3 installer above.

The problem is indeed with the skin (kind of, the plugin was written to move it around when it probably should have been a stationary position.)

I moved the search menu as far into the upper left corner as possible but it still wasn't enough.
I came REALLY close, but the bottom option still cuts off the bottom row.

I have asked Tgx (Author of BlackGlass, the skin I use) to recreate his xml to help fix this problem on his skin.

Anybody with a bit of free time in his hands that want to fix the small non working things in this great plugin ?

I can also see some exceptions in log recently:

Re: MyWorldMap plugin V 1.0 RC2 (Google Maps and Virtual Earth)

I take it the code is public.. That would be nice to get this plugin revised..

Re: MyWorldMap plugin V 1.0 RC2 (Google Maps and Virtual Earth)

Yes code is public, but I miss the time to check it. This is why I asked for help in this thread

Could not resist. I converted the project to VS2008 and recompiled.

Had to do a small change to VirtualKeyboard. So please test and report back. If all is ok I'll commit and then start reworking it

EDIT:
Attachment removed because RC4 is released !

Re: MyWorldMap plugin V 1.0 RC4 (Google Maps and Virtual Earth)

RC4 on first post

Skinners be aware of three important info:

• 7 media files are needed:
  WMIPBlocked.jpeg, WMprogressBarActive.png, WMprogressBarQueued.png,
  WMprogressDummy.png, WMTileNotAvailable.jpeg, WMTilePlaceholder.jpeg
• all labels are now localized. If you need further assistance just drop me a line
• hover file is named "hover_worldmap.png"
