What do you mean 'final mapversion'? (apart from the German propensity to improperly concatenate nouns in english! ;^) It is not clear to me how you are...
I am doing the same as Marcello and draw objects on level 0 and use the Dictionary to extend POI, POLYLINE and POLYGON to the other levels. Up to now I have...
OK - thanks for that. My recollection was that Mapedit flagged [Dictionary] as unsupported. Does it still do that, and/or just work anyway? ... From: Auke...
Mapedit still gives the "WARNING (offset 4DEh): [DICTIONARY] section is not supported." But it just works. You can add your dictionary manually using any text ...
Does anyone have an answer to the OP's question. Is there a way to perform a single GPSMapEdit operation, other than "save as", from a script? Nicer if there...
It wasn't clear to me whether the question was in reference to driving Mapedit from a script, or running the Polish through a script afterwards. Either would...
Episode 2 of The GeoScoop is out. In this show we cover how to identify poison ivy, some of the tools we should have in our geobag and talk about some of the...
Hello Mapmakers, I've been lurking and learning for a couple of years but now have a problem I can't solve yet. I've put a transparent overlay map of old...
In the [POLYLINE] section try changing "Type=0x3"; to Type="0x16" or some other value of your cholce. ... -- -... .. .-.. .-.. -. --- .-- .. -.-. -.- -.-- ...
Thanks Bill, I must have a funky type chart because it said 0x3 was -road, 'other type'. I checked in the cGPSmapper appendix and saw you were correct. Is this...
The rendering of a line depends (a) on your device, unless you specify (b) a customisation 'typ' file to go with it. So - without knowing what you are...
Hi Gary, The GPS is a Garmin 62s and I think Type=0x16 (tracks and trails) should render fine as the older topos had them on the maps and they looked just fine...
Tracks are a good candidate for customisation. They tend to disappear amidst contours and such on topo maps, and they are certainly one of the things you do...
Thanks, Looks like the mp files are still pretty standard, so at this point I'm safe rewriting my code to still work with mps. I take it there is still no...
Yes, there's still no way to create DEMs. Either cgpsmapper nor mkgmap support creating DEMs, because the compression algorithm Garmin uses for DEMs is still ...
I deleted the file in the meantime - you need 7 month to answer! Do you still need help with the skin? Best regards, Michael ... [Non-text portions of this...
Hi, I am trying to create a Marine map using NOAA s57 data. I am using Global Mapper and generated the MP file. Then I set Marine=B and it displays the img...
I am trying to build a map, the contours i generated is fine when looked as shapefile, also as the mp file. but the minute I generate the contour map image the...
Are you looking ast the fully zoomed in detail on mapsource, or what? The index/overview will always be relatively jagged. The other thing that'll screw it up...
File/map properties/levels/edit. You haven't answered the fundamental question. Are you sure that you are looking at your level0 data, or are you looking at...
Contours not being smooth sounds like the OP's viewing objects at higher than level 0. Contours crossing sounds like he's viewing level 0 and level 1...
In that case you may want to try [Select by type> contours], then when they are highlighted [Modify > Extend all elements up to level 0] followed by [Extend...
I have no idea what you are talking about Seldom. I've never done any of this, nor have I ever heard of anyone doing or recommending this. I have no idea what...
Gary, first let me say that you're one of the guys whose advice I respect. Sorry you don't find me clear. The idea with reducing all elements to level 0 is to...
Ditto, which is why I wanted to point out that what you were saying was uncharacteristically unclear. This explanation makes a lot more sense, thank you. I'm...
