I have a netbook connected to a TinyTrak4 connected to a VX-7R in a mobile install. I will soon add a USB GPS to the system. This is a temporary configuration...
What port does the USB serial adapter show up on in Vista? Is that same port set in the GPS / Comm Port setting in USAPhotomaps? I had to get an updated driver...
I think I made a suggestion some time back that it would be useful to have an unloaded tile viewing feature for the topomaps that worked the same as the '1'...
Sorry this message took me so long to approve. I must have missed the email alerting me and I don't visit this group very often. You are unmoderated now so...
New computer, Vista, no serial port. I bought a USB cable for my Garmin GPS72, installed the program that came with it. I also downloaded USB drivers from...
I empathize with you for the problems you're having. But they're extremely weird and extremely unusual, and they've never happened to me. Well, the corrupted...
... Some more observations and clues to the X's and corruption problems. I have had the X's appear on a fully tiled screen that was populated before I...
I'm not sure it has been mentioned yet, but when I get the dreaded X'es on a screen which which was already partially filled, they overlay on the already...
You also have something. Those occasional X's have been a bother off and on. But I preferred to ignore the problem. It occurs in a complex set of routines that...
I'll think about the X problem. The user agent that's sent is "USAPhotoMaps". That may be the problem. I'll work on making it changeable (in USAPM.ini, I...
I'm not sure if I have seen the same problem as you or not. I sometimes see picture quads either not show up (X's) or other times corrupted data displaying...
... I wonder if an optional short (maybe adjustable) delay of some milliseconds might help the X problem. Maybe a configurable value for how many requests are...
It still seems to download fine on my small-resolution laptop computer (1280x800). I wouldn't be surprised if Microsoft were making the download process less...
I experience both the line corruption and X's problem frequently in Topo mode and occasionally in Photo mode. It's frankly maddening. I'm a long time...
Wow! I bet Doug Cox is pretty proud of that! I'm glad that this program has found such an important use. I only wish we could get some more current maps. ...
I work in a forestry/firefighting environment. If I get sent to a fire 200 miles from where I live to a place I have never been before I find out the general...
... In addition to getting USAPM to use the COM port assigned to the Bluetooth serial port, don't forget to set the GPS to use NMEA protocol. I don't have a...
Thanks for the advice, but that is not my problem. Serial ports under Windows has gotten more and more complex so that any given program may or may not work...
... I'm curious, what do you use it for exactly? Have you ever used it for car navigation like a GPS? I have thought of doing that, but my laptop is a 17" and...
From the GPS menu help file: /USAPhotoMaps can show position with a bluethooth connection to a GPS receiver, because all bluethooth GPS receivers emulate a...
I do all the time, sometimes daily. I use a USB gps hooked up to a XP laptop. Works great, I am looking to buy a net book for the very same reason. ...
Does anyone use USAPM with a GPS as a moving map display? I have always wanted to do that. I even have a bluetooth GPSr that I could use, but I've never...
I don't have a Garmin Colorado, but I think I found how to fix your problem (by reading the Colorado Owner's Manual and reading the relevent pages at...
Hello all, I'm new to this group, but a long time user of USA Photomaps. I've used the program sucessfully with my old Magellan 315 and Sportrak Map. Recently...

I really like the ability to add pictures to waypoints. Lets me confirm my memory. One thing that's somewhat bothersome is the fact if I inadvertently hover...

No, sorry. It should only leave a 2 1/2 by 1/16 inch vestige if you move it to the bottom. Doug Cox _________________________________ You wrote (Wed, 22 Jul...
Is there any way to reduce the size of the pop-up when I display Track Data? It's about 2 1/2 by 4 inches. While I can move it, it still covers some of the...
