I forgot to mention the other change I noticed is the mouse pointer behavior. Now, when I click on the map or try to hold down to draw a zoom box, I get the pop up menu. Clicking away from the menu closes it and returns to the map. Is this normal behavior when the touch LCD option is enabled? I'm assuming this is a way to speed up operation when using a touch only interface. Jason Rausch - Amateur Radio Callsign: KE4NYV RPC Electronics, LLC www.rpc-electronics.com

If I recall correctly, your install was done by running the script at http://www.175moonlight.com/xastir/raspbian-xastir-cvsbuild.sh with minor modifications. If so, all that "automation" was really just running what most of us do by hand on other systems. The script installs all the packages Xastir depends on, then downloads the CVS version of Xastir and builds it. To do what Curt's suggesting means skipping right to the last step after hacking the source --- you don't need to re-run the script, since you already have all the prerequisites. All you need to do to rebuild Xastir with that option is to do the following: - cd ~/src/xastir/src - cd ~/src/xastir/build - ../configure CPPFLAGS="-DLCD640x480TOUCH" This is the same as if you had edited main.c and uncommented an ifdef that Curt mentioned, but is a lot simpler than editing code. - make clean && make && sudo make install Then, launch Xastir as before, but change font sizes so that everything looks OK for you. While the "ifdef" has 640x480 in its name, there is nothing that actually uses the 640x480 size in the code --- it's just a shorthand for the specific use case Curt was experimenting with when he inserted this code. Ideally, selecting these options should be done in the "configure" script with an "--enable-touchscreen" option or something rather than by forcing CPPFLAGS or hand-editing code, but nobody has set it up that way.
