TopoFusion Pro / Re: How to Measure Existing Track Segment?

« on: February 17, 2009, 01:55:08 PM »

It should be easy to implement (says the non-coder  )

Just click on a point to select with the select point tool.  Then click (crtl-alt click?)(crtl-shift click?) on another point farther along in the same track.  As long as the two points are located sequentially in the same track, the segment of track would then be highlighted and it should be fairly easy to get the track distance between them.  If necessary, the first point would have to be earlier in time than the second, which is indicated by the handy new directional arrows that you put in a few releases back.  For selecting, one just has to zoom in really tight to be able to select the right point on the track.

In the meantime, though, I'll do the snip and profile.

TopoFusion Pro / How to Measure Existing Track Segment?

« on: February 17, 2009, 12:44:00 PM »

Hey Scott,

Hope you are having a good winter.  I can't find an answer to the following:

Is there a way to find out the length of a segment of a track without having to draw using the pencil?  In other words, is there a way to click at some point on an existing track, then click farther along on the same track and get a readout of the track distance (not the straight line) between the two points? For example, if I ride a lollipop loop, with one way in and out (the "stick" of the lollipop), it would be nice to be able to get a measurement of the loop without the "stick", or vice versa.

Thanks!

Archived Support / Can't Delete Trackpoints

« on: May 01, 2007, 12:52:22 PM »

Using TF3, latest version, I can select a track point, but can't delete any.  Running on MS Vista Home Deluxe.  This happens in several different GPX files.

Just tried it on an XP machine, and I can delete trackpoints on that machine in TF3.0.

The Vista system is using an Nvidia Graphics card with the latest non-beta vista drivers from Nvidia.  3.0 GB RAM.

EDIT - Problem fixed with 3.05 beta.  Never mind...

Feature Requests / Import/Export to Google Earth?

« on: April 11, 2007, 04:04:19 PM »

Hey Scott,

Any chance of an import/export ability to Google Earth (KML?) files?

Looking at this page it looks like it might be a useful capability down the road.

Archived Support / Tiles Downloading Slooooowly

« on: May 02, 2006, 07:36:01 AM »

I just installed TF on a new machine, which has a Pentium D dual core chip, 3 GB of RAM, and a new Nvidia 7600 GS video card with the latest drivers.  TF  doesn't seem to download tiles at all, or a new tile will pop up every minute or so.  This happens at all zoom levels and with all tile sets.  Also, if I try to resize the TF window, it takes a couple of seconds to redraw on the screen.

Also, the screen resolution is 1920x1200.  I was previously having the same garbling issue as in another post, but that was before I installed the new video card.

I'm using version 2.85 of TF.
