I have a Garmin StreetPilot 2720 and find the day and night themes understandable and easy to read. I've looked around for Garmin color schemes for TomTom and not found any.
I'm developing these schemes myself using the CSE Color Scheme Editor. I have some questions:
I'm developing these schemes myself using the CSE Color Scheme Editor. I have some questions:
- When I zoom out, the colors of some of the highways change. It seems to be the major highways that change color. Can these colors be controlled?
- What are distinctions between secondary roads...
- Small
- Solid
- Inside?
- What is the route background?
- What are the distinctions between:
- Secondary road
- Connecting road
- Major local road
- What tools do you use to pick and adjust colors? I'm using HPS PixelColor (trail) and Colourificator. I'm using both because neither one has all the features I want. I have also tried Instant EyeDropper, Color Picker and Get Color.
- How many colors can the TomTom GO 720 display? Is it 24-bit color? 16-bit color?
- On the CSE home page they mention using TomTom HOME to transfer the schemes to the TomTom, but I don't know what they mean. I'm actually editing the themes directly from the schemes directory in the TomTom file system. All I have to do to view an edited scheme on the TomTom is file the changes then use TomTom HOME option "Operate my GO". If I'm already in that mode I just click "Done" then "Operate my "GO" to reload the color scheme.
