Telltale Marks on TS Dashboard

[Xplode]

I just downloaded the newest version of the tuner studio software and d*** does it run good! I saw piles of potential back in the original beta release, but man has it come a long way! Props to Phil Tobin!

Ok - now what i would like to know is, can i make the telltale marks on the guages stay longer? I'd like to set it so i records the highest reading for my entire trip - or until i reset the guages somehow. Right now if i do a pull down the track, by the time i get to the return lanes, the marks will be gone. I don't want to look at the guages while i'm pulling off the track. And yes i know i can check the log later, but i'd like to know immediately if anything went too high.

Thanks in advance!

No, it is still fixed. But only because I forgot to put the menu item on to adjust it. I'll put that in now so i don't forget.

Is it possible for me to manually change it in an INI file or something? Just until it gets added to the next release?

[LT401Vette]

Actually there is... In the dash file you can change it, but it is at the gauge level not the system or dash level.

I you open your dash file, you main cluster will be in at:
[Your Project older]\dashboard\dashboard.dash

That is in xml, so you can edit it in a text editor. Open it in something like Textpad.

inside you will find this line for every gauge:
<HistoryDelay type="int">15000</HistoryDelay>

The 1500 is for 1500 ms or 15 seconds. If you do a search and replace to say this:

<HistoryDelay type="int">600000</HistoryDelay>

That will make it a 10 minute telltail.

Absolutely friggin fantastic! Kudos sir, and thanks for being so on top of this!

Is there a max value the parameter will accommodate?

[LT401Vette]

Max that will count as a valid telltail value? No, not currently.

There could be if needed. Why?

[Xplode]

No real reason other than i don't want to input a value that can't be properly processed by the program or whatever. Might cause some frustration since i want it to last a fair while. Although the 10 minutes thing will work well.

Cheers & Thanks!

It would probably be nice to have an easy way to manually reset the telltail...
