TopoFusion Pro / Where are these lines coming from?

« on: August 23, 2010, 10:51:07 AM »

One more question---and then I'm happy!

When I open TopoFusion, I see a clean map as expected (whatever the last map I used was). But when I load a GPX file containing nothing but waypoints, thick blue lines (that resemble track lines) appear on the map. (See the screencap below.) The lines remain at all zoom levels. They almost appear to follow state boundaries. (EDIT: Okay, after zooming out, I realize that they ARE state boundaries. Any way to hide them or get them NOT to show?)

Any idea what's causing these lines to appear? I can't seem to select them or delete them. They're not a big deal, just visually annoying!

These GPX files, BTW, came from a Garmin Oregon 450. (And I'm sure there is nothing but waypoints in the file. At least 90% sure...)

Thanks,
Scott

TopoFusion Pro / Map descriptions?

« on: August 23, 2010, 10:42:09 AM »

Hi---just bought TopoFusion Pro and am loving it! One quick question: is there anywhere I can find a concise description of each of the different types of maps available?

I obviously understand "topo" and "aerial," but several of the map types are meaningless to me ("urban") and I don't understand the difference in the various degree scales of some of the maps.

I guess I could just start Googling all these map types and do the research...but figured I'd check to see, Scott, if you had a concise description somewhere?

Aside from descriptions, it would also be nice to have a bit of useful info such as "This type of map is really good if you want to...whereas this other type of map is best for..."

Thanks,
Scott
