Problem with Photos now on my Home PC
« on: February 01, 2007, 02:37:26 AM »
Well, now I can add or See photos on my Home PC of Topofusion.

There is absolutely a Bug somewhere in the software. There are too many differences between both PCs to have the SAME problems. I also tried adding just one seeing if somehow my gpx file is corrupt and it will not Show the photo. Turn off shows the text turn on Shows the icon but No photo.

I think the two problems are related somehow, but that is just my opinion. Could it be an issue with DirectX? I have the Full version needed as you suggested. I am going to uninstall Topofusion and reinstall on MY PC and see what happens, it may be a bug where once it corrupts thats it.

Anyway I thought you would like to know, I wonder how many around here are really testing this software out for you? lol

No go still doesnt work, this is REALLY wierd to say the least. I tried loading 983 and No go still doesnt show the photo's. There must be someone else who is having this problem if they test it, because I HAVE 2 different systems doing the SAME thing? Oh well hope its fixed or its back to the old version for me 2.97

Yep, the two issues are likely related -- both functions are loading images from your hard drive and displaying them using transparency on the screen.

The user maps code is less complicated than the photo code, but it's the same idea.

Still scratching my head on this one.  In 2.991 I changed the way jpegs were loading in photofusion (thumbnails on screen) which fixed problems on two computers I was dealing with.  I will have another look at the code that I changed.  Those computers where doing the same thing -- just photo icons and no thumbnails ever coming up.

I tried everything on my end, I tired adding removing new photos everythign I could think of to add the ability again, but it seems to be gone now. What shocked me is when it done in on my Home PC as it WAS working and now its not. Really wierd because I made complete photo waypoints on the home PC but now I can make any because I GET just icons.

I love your software and hope this gets resolved as its a very useful feature, usermaps may be too much because of the slow down I heard others get, but the photo waypoints would be a great addition in helping me.

Any Idea why it would work a few times and then stop and not work again?

Nope, working at first and then not makes no sense!

Seriously, send me an image or two that you are having problems with.  It doesn't seem likely, but it may tell me something useful.

I emailed you 2 of the photos, but none work now. I'm sure others will noticed when they have the right combo that caused my issues. Alot of people use your program but not all the features or they dont like betas. lol
