Greetings, I've used the mouse to draw an area feature and I would like to edit each vertex as text instead of graphically. Basically I want to "rough out" a ...
Wayne, You can easily edit area vertices textually. After drawing the area, just turn on Area and Line Vertex Display (Shift + V), then draw a box around the ...
Hi Mike, I just tried this: SHIFT-V Digitizer tool, then drag out box around point. The point turned red with a red circle around it. I then right-clicked on...
Wayne, There should also be an option that says "Set Position of Selected Vertex". That is the one that you need to use. Mike Global Mapper Support ...
Hi Mike, That worked fine and I was able to actually enter the coords as: n40 37 and w98 30 as you had indicated in an earlier message. What does the solid...
Wayne, If a vertex is a red dot that means it is the last vertex in a line or area feature. The first vertex will be colored green, but will not be visible for...
I have a couple of workspace (gmw) files that produce the following message, but still appear to load correctly. WARNING: Error loading data from buffer. ...
Mike, May I suggest that build numbers be displayed in "About Global Mapper" and that version and build be a part of the download file name. There are changes...
Jerry, I agree that there should be something more precise than just a version number in the About dialog since there are so many interim beta builds. I'll ...
I was recently chatting to a colleague who uses a mac for design work - he said that occasionally he was called on to produce maps, and we got talking about...
There aren't currently any plans to make a native Linux or Macintosh version of Global Mapper, but I know that you can use Global Mapper on a Mac using ...
Hi all I'm a Terragen user and I only render real places landscape with DEMs, so Global Mapper is a perfect tool for me. When I export a terrain to Terragen...
Hi all; I'd like to welcome Manel to this group. He's done some outstanding work with Terragen and it's really worth a look at his images. This is especially...
Hi Tim Thanks for the welcome and support. Manel ... outstanding work with Terragen and it's really worth a look at his images. This is especially true for...
Tim, I think it would be relatively easy for me to add an option to make holding down the Shift key or something when dragging a box force the box being ...
Hi Mike; That would be great - thanks for checking it out. I think I've seen that with Paint Shop or Photoshop - like Click-Control-Drag makes a circle or...
Tim/Manel, I have just placed a new build of Global Mapper 6 at http://www.globalmapper.com/global_mapper6.zip which will allow you to drag a square export box...
Hi Mike, Wow! Support on Sunday...., Thanks for your effort. I've tried it and seems to work fine. A very nice addition for Terragen users. Thanks again Manel ...
I just wanted to chime and say how impressed I continue to be with Mike's support. I'm not a Terragen user (yet...) but Mike has in the past quickly added...
In a project we're working on, we are plotting several alternative routes for a light-rail right of way. Given that it takes about fifteen minutes to load all...
Victor, It sounds like you've already found the solution that I was going to suggest, which is to export the data to its own file so that it can be its own...
I was wondering if any tought was given to GM being able in the future to load the individual .img files which make up a Garmin compatible GPS map. More and...
Hi Maurizio; You can use GM to import GPS data and overlay it on any georeferenced GIS files - e.g. USGS DRGs, DEMs, etc. No need to import the Garmin maps....
Maurizio, For the foreseeable future it will not be possible to directly load Garmin .img format maps into Global Mapper. It may be possible to use one of the ...
I have been considering getting a GPS unit for a long time. Could you give the name of some units that are compatible with GM? Thank you. Global Mapper Support...
HI @ All, I am trying to combine the outstanding capabitlites of GM to display all kind of maps and some online, realtime tracking of moving objects. These...
Any serial GPS unit will work fine. Global Mapper cannot yet talk to some of the newer USB GPS devices. If you just want it for talking to GM, I'd suggest a...
