TopoFusion Anouncements / Forum Registration Closed - email for account

« Last post by ScottMorris on January 28, 2025, 02:12:24 PM »

There are too many spam bots targeting this forum, so I closed registration.

If you'd like an account -- just drop a quick email to smorris@topofusion.com and I'll create it.

These forums are mostly archive only at this point. Just around for reference and searching mainly.

Support for the software is alive and well, plus usually quick, by email, as always.

TopoFusion Pro / Re: Land Owndership maps

Still working on this. It was not an easy server swap, like I had hoped.

Thanks for reporting this. I've noticed the same lately.

Will hopefully have a fix and new version soon. Assuming a public server still exists, which it probably does.

TopoFusion Pro / Re: Can't open Garmin FIT file (Error reading file).

« Last post by ScottMorris on December 29, 2024, 07:31:47 PM »

Thanks for the report here.

If you've got a file, please send it over to smorris@topofusion.com

Most FIT files I use come from RWGPS or other places. Guess I don't use ones from Garmin very often.

Thanks!

TopoFusion Pro / Can't open Garmin FIT file (Error reading file).

« Last post by brian.r.hamilton on December 14, 2024, 12:25:51 PM »

I've found that I can open some FIT files but none from Garmin.  I suspect Garmin has added something that doesn't agree with TopoFusion.  Maybe just tags or whatever that TF doesn't recognize but should\could just ignore?  I'd be happy to send an example file or help in any way I can with resolving the issue.

Here's the error message I get from TopoFusion:  Error reading file: (full path\filename).

TopoFusion Pro / Land Owndership maps

« Last post by jimbowilly on November 16, 2024, 08:21:47 AM »

I just upgraded to the new version, 5.8,  but I cannot get either of the land ownership maps to download.

I've tried "Land Ownership BLM" and "Land Ownership US". I'm trying to view areas in central and SW Arizona

Firewall is wide open for Topofusion. No Proxy server. Other maps work fine, its just these two. They start and then downloading becomes disabled and I get that dialog box.

Is there a know issue for this?

Yes, it's been cruising around for many years now!!  I initially registered in 2007 (sadly, the registration email doesn't say what version it was...),
though I'd been using Basic version for some time before that...

When I came back to TF recently, I was *really* pleased, nae excited, to see that you had managed to incorporate Google Earth maps
into the program!!  That is so cool!!  I still have copies of emails that you and I exchanged,
back in January 2011, that started out with this post from you:

//*********************************************************
This is a friendly chirp from a little bird that if you download the latest TopoFusion beta, from here:
[ deleted ]
There is a hidden feature.  Access it as follows:

Help->About (loads up about screen)
On the keyboard hit Shift-D
A note about "Debug dialog" pops up
Open the Debug Dialog on the main menu
Enable the checkbox at the bottom of the dialog

Keys 7,8,9 now give access to new map types in TF.
//*********************************************************

It *did* work, but was rather touchy - yet I was grateful for it at the time!!
But now, it's just part of the program!!  That is an awesome accomplishment...

Excellent!

TF is still alive and well. Even as it is aging...

Ahhh!!  Thank you!!  It was set to Track Shading was set to Elevation... I changed it back to OFF, and that is fine...

I also needed to move a few of the points around... that took me a bit to figure out, but I got it!!

It's so cool to be back in TF again!!

Hi,

Pretty sure what's happening is that "track shading" is on. It overrides what a track's color is. You can find the toggle for it in the Toggles menu. Toggles->Track shading.

Sorry about the confusion. I'll have to check that it's off by default. I thought it was.

Thanks for reporting the spam post here, too.
