Replacements for 'previous map' and 'scope indicator' toolbar buttons

Added 18 December 2003

Giuliano Pinto has kindly provided "standard-size" buttons for these functions, and I've created "large-size" versions. (You can select large toolbar buttons in the Settings... Toolbar dialog.) Be aware that to use these, you must have the current "test" update to the Guide software, in order to get the "previous chart" function.

Once you've got that working, you'll want to get the buttons; click here to download them. UnZIP them in your Guide directory.

Now comes a slightly trickier part. You'll have to edit the file toolbar.dat in a text editor. Look for these two lines:

   2421  !03.bmp           Toggle scope location indicator
   2542  !04.bmp           Previous chart

(If the toolbar buttons are turned off, either or both lines may begin with '#' instead.) Change the references to the .bmp files to read

   2421  !scope_id.bmp     Toggle scope location indicator
   2542  !prev_map.bmp     Previous chart

Do this, and the new buttons will be used when you fire up Guide.
