TopoFusion Pro / How to draw tracks for elevation profiles?

« Last post by St3v3 on August 05, 2023, 03:38:15 PM »

I'm doing something wrong

Select Track Tool, Left click begin point, left click end point, right click>Save as...
Select Hand tool, right click track, Profile
The profile shows 0 Climb and 0 Descent.
The distance seems correct.

What's the correct procedure?

Feature Requests / Garmin GPSMAP 67

« Last post by neilwoody on June 11, 2023, 04:40:35 AM »

TOPOFUSION 5.76 does not support the latest Garmin handheld GPSMAP 67. Hopefully a software update or patch can be added to remedy this issue. I prefer Topofusion but now use ExpertGPS which does support the GPSMAP 67.

TopoFusion Pro / Re: Version 5.76 does not start

Sorry that I missed this post.

The "reset" option that installs with the software is a good option when things go awry. It resets the config file so that settings go back to default but sometimes more importantly it removes all GPX/KML files from the 'to load' list at opening. My guess is that the software was hanging on one of the files you had loaded previously. Maybe one with photos attached or something along those lines?

Hi,
The problem might be solved...?
The v5.76 installation package included two new tools 'Topofusion Diagnostic Log' and 'Reset TF to Default Settings'
The 'TF Diagnostic Log' gave
TopoFusion 5.760 Log Begin
SizeChanged : Not initialized, aborting
Setting internet settings..
SizeChanged : Not initialized, aborting
GPSMaster.ocx, Initialize...


And next 'Reset..." seems to help. TF starts as normal and I can display my tracks correct again, also after a restart.
Any comments on the result of the log? The CPU-load was about 35-45% when I was waiting these 40 minutes.

TopoFusion Pro / Version 5.76 does not start

Hi, The SW does not start on a new installation on a new computer (Win 11 pro). The download and installation is OK. The Initializing window has been on for approx 40 minutes. My location is in Sweden if that is an issue. I'm a long time user and have never seen this behaviour before. Any suggestions?

Feature Requests / Select Points tool - can it select waypoints also?

« Last post by fulmar2 on September 24, 2022, 04:42:09 PM »

If it's not too difficult to add, I was wondering if the "select points" tool (the one that has the dashed square with an arrow in the bottom right) would be able to select waypoints.  Right now, that tool selects tracepoints, but it would be helpful for "batch deleting" waypoints.  My use case is that I sometimes download multiple GPX files to put them together into one route.  Sometimes there are a lot of waypoints that I don't need which are off of the route.  If it is a long route, that can mean I exceed the 200 point limitation. It's possible to manually delete them one at a time, so this is kind of a low priority ask...  But if it is easy to implement, it would be helpful.

Interesting.  Sounds like you are on the case and will get it to work. 

Thanks for the nice compliment on the software.  It's going to be 20 years old later this year!

Scott - Thanks for the reply. I think you're right about the 32bit limitation vs 64bit... Actually, I just looked and my Maps folder has 120Gb... so huge... and the maps.dat is 95.9Mb.  No big deal; I just need to start over downloading tiles if I want to use XP.  I'm kind of going through a computer transition because of this Mac M1 thing.  The versions of Windows I've used historically can't be virtualized without the Intel Chip... so I'm going to be playing around with a Raspberry Pi and ARM version of Windows.  I looked elsewhere for a Topofusion replacement... and of course nothing comes even close for route design.  Kudos for making such awesome software.

Hi there,

That is an odd one.  My hunch is that there's some difference in the filesystem or something that exceeded 32bits in XP vs 64 in your W10 machine.

50 Gb is quite a tile cache, strong work!  How big is the mapindex.dat file? 

Thanks,

Scott
