Many parameters of ttMaps, such as display colors or size, can be adjusted. However, adding menus would increase the software footprint and require significant development time. Therefore, these parameters can be changed only with a computer and a text editor.
Example :
The settings are stored in the file ttmaps.conf of the folder ttMaps. Some settings can be changed through the ttMaps menus and are therefore not listed here. Do not change them unless you know exactly what you do. Here are the parameters you can change :

It is the simplest type, an integer number.
Example : 12
It is a number composed of an integer part and a fractional part, separated with a decimal point.
Example : 23.66
It is a boolean value :
It is a color, defined by its three primary components Red (R), Green (G) and Blue (B). Its value is represented by a real number between 0 (minimal brightness) and 1 (maximal brightness).
Examples :
R | G | B | Color |
---|---|---|---|
1.0 | 1.0 | 1.0 | White |
0.0 | 0.0 | 0.0 | Black |
1.0 | 1.0 | 0.0 | Yellow |
0.5 | 0.5 | 0.5 | Grey |
It is a more or less transparent color, depending on the value of the A parameter. If A is 0, the color is fully transparent. If A is 1, it is opaque. If A is between 0 and 1, the color is translucent.
