Tile display bug & suggestion.
« on: April 06, 2004, 10:35:53 AM »
It always displays as "downloading" even though the Topo and Aerial tiles are loaded.  This only happens on 1 tile on the screen.  How can I get it to refresh this data?

It would be nice if there were an option to force a refresh of all the tiles currently displayed.

Bizarre.  I came back to my computer after a few hours away and it was still there.  Then I moved the map side-to-side and it displayed the tile!  I tried this before and it made no difference.  Previously I tried Alt-Tab, minimize, moving the non-conformist tile all the way off screen, disable-enable internet downloading, etc.  Nothing worked.  No idea why it suddenly healed itself.

One thing you can do is use the "reload maps tool" to force reload of a tile.

Sometimes single tiles to hang, though.  You can also try changing the setting for "persistant http" in options->network.  That may or may not help your situation.  Let us know.

Another thing, if you are really desperate, is to close then restart TopoFusion.

Thanks.  I just discovered the Load Maps icon on my own!  It didn't help though.  I seem to be getting random tiles that think they are not already loaded.  I can close and restart TopoFusion and they appear in different areas each time and just seem to fix themselves at random as well.  I know all these tiles have been downloaded.  What would cause them to get marked as not loaded?
