Thanks for the quick reply!
For printing I recommend using the 'export view' function to output a BMP or JPG file, then printing that. You can get a higher resolution export that way.
I'll take a look at that, thanks.
Freezing in the print dialog isn't a demo limitation -- let me look into that.
I sent in a crash report twice, if that helps.
TF doesn't have tick marks or any declination option. So would the current grid option work just without the lines that go across the map?
Yes, that would be helpful. It's distracting when trying to see topo features with all the lines. I'm assuming the grid lines are true north?
I haven't looked at declination but adding a diagram probably isn't too hard -- have it as an option for printing and exporting.
That would really be wonderful. The MapPass site used to do that. It allowed you to do full length lines or tic marks around the edges and then gave a small diagram at the bottom of the map for a declination for that area. What I have my students do is use the declination line normally found at the bottom corner of most topo maps to draw their own magnetic north lines on the map for orienting their maps in the field. Much easier than always trying to remember the declination "remember a certain number to add or subtract" formula.
Do you think you could add a scale, too? (Or is there already a way to add a map scale?) So that people could see what distance equals 2000 feet, or a mile, etc?
Hope that helps, and sorry about missing some orienteering options. Perhaps we can add them in the near future.
That would be fabulous. That would honestly bring in a whole 'nother group of people from all over to your software. Orienteering is a hugely popular sport and growing all the time. While I teach to many types of people, my specialty is orienteering on horseback for people that want to camp and trail ride all over the country.
