TopoFusion Pro / Re: TF 4.05 wants to download MyTopo tiles that I already downloaded

Have you decided to continue using the zoom level 15 of the My Topo maps?  I download another copy of TF 4.05 and it has the same issue as my original post.  I really don't want to spend the hours to manually downloading the level 15 files when I already have level 16 files as part of the 22 GB of TF data files already downloaded.  It wouldn't be an issue if the My Topo people allowed you the include their maps in the Load Maps tool.   

The level 15 files do have some advantages as you pointed out.  Is it time to pour a glass of wine and scroll around as the boxes fill in?

TopoFusion Pro / File Information, Time/Date greyed out

In the File Properties, File Information tab, the "Time/Date" is grayed out usually.  How can I edit that field?

Thanks,

While on the topic of quirks - here's an inconsistency.

In the "files" window at the bottom of the screen, the globe file icon changes to red when the gpx file is edited but not yet saved.  This is good.  Not so when a file is created using "Make Network". The file icon is different and does not change color when it is edited and not yet saved.  It's a very minor issue, but is inconsistent behavior.

It got me when I started working with "networked" files after using TF with regular gpx files for some time.  Eventually I figured out the inconsistency and how to edit the "networked" gpx file to make it a regular gpx file.

I have also noticed items 1 and 2 of the original post.

I went back to 4.00 and the previously downloaded MyTopo maps display.  I'll stick with the older version for now.  Good luck chasing this one down.

TopoFusion Pro / TF 4.05 wants to download MyTopo tiles that I already downloaded

I just updated to version 4.05 from 4.0 and TF is downloading MyTopo tiles again in areas that were previously downloaded. The Color and Aerial maps of areas previously downloaded are displaying and not downloading correctly.  On a second computer with TF 4.00 installed the previously downloaded MyTopo maps are displaying and not downloading again as appropriate.  This appears to be an issue only affecting MyTopo maps and caused by TF 4.05.  I had been using TF 4.00, checked for and installed the update, then continued in TF 4.05 and MyTopo immediately started downloading in the area I was just looking at.  If this is an intentional update of the My Topo maps, it would have been appropriate to notify users in advance.
