**  "Do you mean they look like valid map tiles, but they are in the wrong place?"

Yes, tiles are downloaded but they're in the wrong place. Haven't tried closing and reopening TF, thats when I use the reload map tool... I'll try it later.

**  "I have noticed it sometimes gives white "no map available" tiles"
Me too!  Well actually gray...

PS     I don't know if it's v3.975 related or a map server problem, but Mexico BW maps aren't downloading...

Well, I've been using v3.975 for a couple of days now, here's what I've seen.

**  I first tried it on an Aspire One 150 netbook (2gb ram. 500gb HD).
MyTopo & OpenStreet are nice, OpenCycle is really nice!! But, after about 5 minutes in OpenCycle TF would freeze up (task manager says "not responding"). OpenStreet would last a little longer (maybe 10 to 15 minutes) before freezing-up. Color, landsat, B/W, Topo, Canadian, Land Ownership, TopoWMS map worked fine as in previous versions. I have not had any problems with this netbook & TF it had worked GREAT; I use it with a Garmin Vista out in the desert.

**  I thought it must be a problem with the netbook,so I tried it on the desktop (Dell 9100). Still freezes up in OpenStreet & OpenCycle (did I say that OpenCycle is really nice??), sometime it takes a little longer, but it will freeze up TopoFusion. As in the netbook, if I don't use the new maps TF works fine (as before).

**  OpenStreet & OpenCycle bring in alot of wrong tiles. The Map Tool does not work with these maps, so I can't reload those wrong tiles.

BTW, did I say that OpenCycle is really nice??

"Open Street Maps should render it a moot point, yes.  It is much better data."

Hi Scott,

Any idea when this will be available??

Thanks for looking into it!
The new street map layer sounds interesting...
Maybe the TIGER server being down is moot.

TopoFusion Pro / no TIGER server available??

« on: June 02, 2010, 01:41:16 PM »

Hi!
I had not had any problems downloading any maps till last week.
 I started getting the error message while trying to down load TIGER data.
"TopoFusion is having trouble contacting one or more of its map servers. etc, etc"

I'm using Pro v3.972 and I have not made any changes.

Anyone else having this problem or is just me?? 
Any solutions or suggestions??

Thanks,
_Charlie

Feature Requests / Re: master checkbox for files

« on: February 01, 2010, 08:37:42 AM »

Wow, talk about "leaping before looking"!
I hadn't noticed those buttons before; there's no need to add "more confusion".
Those 2 buttons take care of my needs.

Hmmmmm, i wonder what else TopoFusion can do that I haven't noticed....

;^)

Thanks,

Feature Requests / master checkbox for files

« on: January 28, 2010, 10:27:31 AM »

Hi Scott,

Sometimes (like when adding a user map) I don't want any waypoints or tracks on the map.
Would it be possible to add an "all" checkbox to the list of loaded files?
If checked then all loaded files appear; if checked and then unchecked no files appear.
If unchecked you could still pick and choose which files to appear.

Having a "master" check box would be easier than going down the list unchecking files.

Thanks,
_Charlie

43.3 GB (so far!)

Is there a "shortcut" for the TopoWMS layer?
ie: Topo [T], B/W Aerial , Color Aerial [C], Urban Aerial , etc.

Also would be nice if it appeared in the Map drop down menu (the one between GPS and Analysis).

Thanks for a great program !!!
