ok, i guess i'm going to test this html5 caching feature to see if it works: https://stackoverflow.com/a/13334284 right now what happens is that the tiles are downloaded and cached, but once the internet connection drops, zooming in and out does not re-display the previously downloaded tiles. also to my understanding this caching might be limited per session, unless this is implemented: http://doc.qt.io/qt-4.8/qwebsettings.html#setOfflineWebApplicationCachePath will try to test the above solutions during the weekend. lubomir -- _______________________________________________ subsurface mailing list [email protected] http://lists.subsurface-divelog.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/subsurface
