Wouldn't that be cut-out letters?

Could be. The lAzy DirT bAgS jusT PlAy wITh CaPs anD FOnTs.

Cut out letters often contain fingerprints. Typing is easier.

You can also play with highlight color to make typed text look more like the cutouts.

Different fonts for the other personalities.

To the Original Poster (LenFagen): I believe that you have a fan club. A simple mistake and everyone is jumping on the band wagon. Including me. The GPS in question may not be salvageable. Good luck!

Start with the company and hopefully you will know if it is repairable.

We have GPS navigation systems built into three of our cars that we could not delete at purchase. We NEVER use them, because they are all based off of either a DVD or a Micro SD card database that was out of date the instant it was recorded.

The best GPS is in smartphones. We use Google Maps, Mapquest, Apple Maps, and WAZE to navigate. The iPhone gives us the option to save geolocation information from the GPS directly to the images we make with the phone camera. We can choose to export the GPS information in the metadata of the file, or not, using Apple Photos and other applications. See below.

Thank you for a sensible answer and a helpful one which can help me out. Most of the other posts I have received indicate either a poor reception of a help request or are having a hot time with silly posts to satisfy their egos.

The cap locks happened to me. The admin warned me about it and threatened to publicly spank me. As such, I felt that you deserve a better answer than a snarky one.

You will always find plenty of snark on UHH. It's the Internet... The eighth graders in us tend to come out and act stoo-pid from time to time. I learned a long time ago to either ignore it, or come back with logic.

Gently, there are some basic unwritten rules for Internet etiquette. One of them is NO SHOUTING. Another is to address issues, without attacking people. Another is to proofread, especially when using "autocorrect" features.

It is hard to break the habit of proofscanning.
