Keyboard shortcuts
« on: May 18, 2004, 05:50:56 PM »
Hi,

I just registered Sunday night - what a terrific program!

I do have a couple of questions/suggestions.

Is there a list of keyboard shortcuts?  In particular I would like to be able to select different tools without mousing up to the menu bar.  I'm using TopoFusion on my laptop and it's pretty tedious with a trackpad.

For "cleaning" GPS tracks it would be nice to select a range of trackpoints in the list under file properties and have those same points be highlighted on the map (and vice versa).  It works for clicking on single point in the list but last night I wanted to delete large sections of a track which is easy in the list but I needed to see which points they were on the map.

Equivalently, if there were some way to see trackpoint numbers on the map I could see the ends of the section I want to delete.  Maybe a tooltip-style popup when the mouse pointer hovers over a trackpoint?

Again, great program and thanks.

 - Bill

Hi, Thanks for the comments/suggestions.

Take a look at our (in progress) new manual that includes all of the keyboard shortcuts:

Manual 2

I'd also like to see track point number or some way to correlate the two other than by clicking on a single point.  We'll think about how best to do it.

Thanks.

Beautiful!  That's exactly what I wanted.

Good enough - thanks.

BTW, I've been reading the old postings and if I were to rank my wishlist then exporting areas larger than my screen would be at the top of the list.  In particular, some way to export all the tiles necessary to fit a particular route into one picture at the highest possible resolution (1M for Aerial and 2M for topo) would be fantastic.

Thanks again for a very useful program.  We have a site license for ArcGIS at work and I started playing with it and decided there simply had to be something better for what I needed.  There is - TopoFusion.  :-)
