Based on my system which at times Scott knows can be issues...I have little or no problem.

-I did have a ghosted screen upon start up, I went to the shading section on the image processing and messed with the topo-aerial etc shading, it seemed to remove it. However it may also be something to look at. If I send it one way or the other it will work for that map tileset. But if i mess with Contrast to brightness sliders it will darken or lighten the entire screen, ( the whole monitor...Including windows and any other program running...Not cool.)

Just checked under 2.991.. It does the same thing....It messes with the monitor settings....Yah Got a fix coming...I don't like program interfering with other programs....No errors to report on trouble log...

Yeah, sorry about the brightness/contrast thing. I haven't been able to figure out a fast way to do contrast without it interfering with other programs as you noted. It's definitely not good style.

So it's not really a bug, just an undesirable feature that I'll have to get rid of.

Glad 3.0 is working otherwise. Have you tried PhotoFusion or User maps with it?

I have used the photofusion It works, Pics as waypoints etc....I'm not sure what the the user map feature is about...I 'll search the threads...

I played with photofusion with 3.0 and had two problems. The first, I'm not sure I can re-create... but basically, I added waypoints to the map and then tried to generate an html image map. Something in all of this caused the app to freeze. The second problem is that when you try to generate an html image map, TopoFusion says it can't find the jpgs. It generates a couple of images but stops short of an index.html. However, after doing all of this, I now have a worse problem. TopoFusion suddenly spikes to 50% CPU, freezes, and I have to shut it down. So I can't give more detailed feedback on the photofusion. I believe it's the track I tried to do photofusion on that is causing the memory problem. It immediately spikes up and freezes when I try to load it.

Looking forward to the fix... I taught a little class on TopoFusion (the stable version) today and everyone loved it.

Hi Lisa,

Thanks for the feedback on this. It may be having trouble loading a particular jpeg. That's my first guess. Check the logfile for any error messages.

Do/did any thumbnails come up on the map before you started having problems?

Also, try disabling photo display (photo toggle on the toolbar). That'll make sure it's a photo problem with that track. I'm going to do some more testing with 'bad' (whatever that means) jpegs this week. I'm not sure it's handling error situations correctly.

Sorry about the problems.

If you could identify a track / photo (or set of photos) that cause the problem and send them to me, that would be much appreciated. I've tested quite a few tracks and photos, not to mention some of our other testers.

Thanks.
