Beta Testing / Beta 3.975 obersvations and comments

« on: June 08, 2010, 08:28:18 AM »

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??

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,

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
