Title: Where are these lines coming from?
Post by: SWriverstone on August 23, 2010, 10:51:07 AM

One more question---and then I'm happy!

When I open TopoFusion, I see a clean map as expected (whatever the last map I used was). But when I load a GPX file containing nothing but waypoints, thick blue lines (that resemble track lines) appear on the map. (See the screencap below.) The lines remain at all zoom levels. They almost appear to follow state boundaries. (EDIT: Okay, after zooming out, I realize that they ARE state boundaries. Any way to hide them or get them NOT to show?)

Any idea what's causing these lines to appear? I can't seem to select them or delete them. They're not a big deal, just visually annoying!

These GPX files, BTW, came from a Garmin Oregon 450. (And I'm sure there is nothing but waypoints in the file. At least 90% sure...)

Thanks,
Scott

That's the "states.gpx" file, and can be turned off in Window->GIS Layers.  It's kind of a hold over from before we had so many imagery types, and especially ones like Landsat that can display the whole world.  In any case, it should probably turn itself off when zoomed in sufficiently far.

Thanks again for the quick response Scott. I figured it was something like that. Now I'm off to play with the app some more (and log some rides!).
