Talk:Menu structure
From OpenTom
[17th July 2005] - akp [edited 22nd July 2005]
One of the Menu items on my TTG300 does not match the item in the menu structure 'default' shown below (the order of items is also different, but that doesn't matter). Specifically, TASK_MENU_PHONE shows a greyed out 'Mobile phone' item, whereas by default I have a selectable 'Connect to your phone' menu item.
None of the 'Available Items' give me back this item (which I will need as soon as I get a Bluetooth capable phone). I have tried a few of the obvious possibilities (like TASK_CONNECT_PHONE, TASK_CONFIGURE_PHONE, TASK_SETUP_PHONE) to no avail.
I wonder if the TASK_PAIR_WITH_PHONE item is supposed to be this item (but is not named correctly?) or if this particular menu item has additional logic to determine whether or not a phone has been paired with the TTG already, which we aren't reproducing in the .mnu file?
Anyone have any ideas?
- MENUITEM|TASK_NAVIGATE_TO|"myicon.bmp"|"Travel!"|
Does anybody know what types of bitmap can be used, what size they should be and where they should be placed? I tried 4 bit, 8 bit en 24 bit colors... size 48x48 and 64x48 pixels... placed in SdkRegistry and root. None of these options worked... :( - OpenMind -

ScaredyCat created icons of 64x48 with 8 bits per channel that seemed to work ... but they used the SDK instead of the syntax you show above ...
[July 23, 2005] I found the problem! User-bitmaps for buttons don't work with app-versions prior to 5.202!
And I also discovered that a TTG-icon is exactly 72x48 pixels, and can have up to 24 bits colors... maybe even 32 bits... Didn't try.

customize TTG910 menu, how to address music player
I own a TTG910 and want to change to menu structure. Many tools are available and work fine. However, these tools do not cover the whole range of the TTG910 functions. I use the mp3-player in my TTG910 a lot and would like to have access to it from menu page number 1. Can someone help me by providing me with the name of the mp3-player function that should be used in the tomtom.mnu file?
Thanks, Bob
New menu items for firmware 6?
Now that it has been released, those of use who have upgraded are back with the standard menus, I presume. Anyone have the names of the new menu items for firmware 6 (and can confirm that the previously-existing items' names are unchanged)?
They are listed in the fourth post of this thread :
http://www.gpspassion.com/forumsen/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=54555
You may also find them here :

(in configuration2.html)
Thanks for the information. Some of the new features are defined in both places, but there are still some that aren't. Specifically (for the ones I'm interested in) are the preference items "Safety Prefs" (actually, this one may be "TASK_SET_SAFETY_SPEED", but isn't listed in the TT docs), "Set Owner" (similarly, this may be "TASK_ASK_CHANGE_OWNER"), "Start-up Pref" (not listed either place), and "Ask Arrival Time" (ditto). Any approach other than guess-and-check for these?
TomTom 6 Navigator menu items
has there been any development regarding using this awesome utility for creating/editing TomTom Navigator 6 menus. I have the same problem as previous posts not being able to find standard menu items, and wondering where to go from here... Also I have been creating my icons as 20x20 24bit bmp, but have read that 22x22 is the optimal size. Colin
Missing TASK Items in Version 7
On my TomTom One there are also following TASKS:
- Safety Preferences
- Help me
- TomTom Safety Cameras
- Warn when near POI
which are gone on the customized Menus. This is a pitty. Any solutions to this? --Bello 13:30, 3 January 2008 (CET)
Grab existing menu file
How can I get the existing TomTom.mnu file that is on the device (My reason is that Tom Tom One XL might have different default menu structure than the one given on the Menu Structure page.
I tried (using TTConsole) cat /mnt/sdcard/SDKRegistry/TomTom.mnu but it says cannot find file.
