Hi Patrik,

I also see this from time to time, but I think it happens only when I touch 
the display so that the device switches into a different mode. I don't know
how Garmin calls it, I call it move mode. In this mode the device shows a small
arrow in the bottom left corner, and it is no longer changing the map center
to my position.  Could this be your case?

Subject: Re: [mkgmap-dev] Track rendering on device


I have from time to time an issue on my 450t that might belongs into the same 
category.... 'unfortunately' also with mkgmap created maps (fzk) as I normally 
don't use the official garmin ones:

If I look at the garmin after a while in action (moving) it happens from time 
to time that the displayed recorded track (my actual movment) diplays wrong. It 
does not display my real movement but just has a straight line from somewhere 
off the map to the actual position.... as soon as the display get's updated 
(because it's turning due to my movment) or I zoom in/out it's displayed 
correctly again...

Actually I've noticed this only on the 450t not on any other garmins I use with 
the same maps (eTrex 30, Monterra).... if I remember correctly.

 

Not sure if it's the same, a similare or a complete other issue....

 

Cheers

Patrik

Betreff: [mkgmap-dev] Track rendering on device



Hi all,



I wonder if this is a problem that is specific for maps generated with

mkgmap :

When I chose a track as target for routing the track is displayed as a

magenta line. When I follow this track on my bicycle the device sometimes

fails to render the map, as a result large areas are flooded with magenta .

The device is an Oregon 450t.

The problem disappears when I move a few meters or chose a different zoom

level. I'm never able to reproduce the problem at home, so I guess

it is related to the movement, maybe combined with low batteries.

I did not yet try if the latest changes regarding MapSplitter improved

this.

Did anybody else see this effect in original Garmin maps?

Any idea what the reason is?



Gerd
