We're in the midst of merging the hires branch into the main code. As a result the next release of the viewer (chances are) it'll have the hires code built in. > If you happen to have more than one memory card in the handheld, Plucker > will list databases on all cards, but trying to pull them up results > in "Cannot find document in RAM or on external card" except for one card. This is a known issue that I came across myself. The thing is that according to Palm, it's the volumeRef value that should be used to identify which VFS media a file lives on. Since the Handera 330 was developed before this rule was established, the device doesn't follow it. Infact, from a program level, if a file exists on either SD or CF, it'll always respond with the same volumeRef. I had produced a hack to fix this, and it worked. Later I learend about this rule, and found out that my change would break any future devices that would contain more than one slot. Clearly, some sort of handera-specific code may be required if this is to be permanently solved. > Before someone fires back with the usual "patches welcome" I should tell > you that I might just take up this problem, depending on where this falls > in my priority list, though it will probably be rather low priority since > this only came up because I was goofing around. Well, patches are always welcome, but this is a known issue which I think I can handle. I've just been trying to concentrate on the sony/nr70 side of the hires code recently, now that I've found an easier way to test/code for HiRes+ support. > As for the silkscreen bug, the Silk and None setting for the Toolbar under > preference seem to be reversed. Set the option to Silk and you get none, > set it to None and you get the toolbar in the silkscreen area. Another known issue, obviously minor. In my haste to get it ready, I made this mistake. For now all I can really say is that I can't have it fixed until everything is merged, which may be a little while yet. > Plucker has better than average HandEra support (few programs would bother > going as far as having controls in the silkscreen area of a minimized > display). Excellent job :-) > Aside from these two quirks and a few forms that aren't getting rescaled, Another known issue. (See hires.plkr.org for a list of all known issues:) .. Part of the problem is that I didn't have time to go through and nativly port each form over to a 240-wide screen. I COULD use handera's built in app to resize forms properly, but that function isn't all that bright when it comes to images.
