Afternoon all, is it possible to convert an Ozi ce TRB file to a PLT file? Unfortunately my track file log on my HEMA wasn't set to file my daily log but appended each day.

Thanks

Dunc

I searched hi n low google and ozi with no avail.

Best to contact Des Newman himself and ask him that question.

Have you tried gps babel? It is a free download and can convert most gps files.

You need to Export track Tail to File...My WinCe days passed a long time ago . However booted up my 9 y/o HP 312 running OZi Ce.The steps are File/Tracklog/ Export Tracklog to file , Name the file, should be default .plt. ''save it as a .plt'' . After you save it, the file will be stored with that name in your Oziexplorer Data folder. It may only be a few hundred meters long, depends on how you configured your device . Not sure on the steps on a Hema Hn but would be similar different buttons.

Thanks for tip, pity I can't read the 7 inch screen (indash) enough to use functions on CE properly. But then lappy is too big to have bouncing away on floor either.

Easy to read for "current location" as a moving map, so begs question is a 8-10 inch tablet capable of running oziexplorer had a look at usual suspect (officexxxx) as lappy will die but rep says it not powerful enough to run external hard drive or programs like oziexplorer

So has me wondering what I need to replace laptop with in future -already using external usb keyboard as laptop has stopped working despite being replaced 18 months ago

Hi Dean
Don't give up on your Oziexplorer CE just yet especially if all you need is to make the writing bigger. These are the settings I use for my 7 inch touch screen.
- open Oziexplorer on the device
- Config - general settings
- sys2 tab
menu font size = 9 Tick box adjacent to auto adjust
dialog font size = 14
toolbar size = 24
menu bar = 1
keyboard size = 6
