> Band 1 Block=1871x1 Type=Byte, ColorInterp=Red > Band 2 Block=1871x1 Type=Byte, ColorInterp=Green > Band 3 Block=1871x1 Type=Byte, ColorInterp=Blue This shouldn't stop the map from showing up in the chooser, but if it *did* show up it wouldn't work. See README.MAPS under "XASTIR can only use GeoTIFF files that are 8-bit per pixel with one band". You'll need to uglify the colors down to 8 bit pseudocolor with rgb2pct.py. As for why it isn't showing in the chooser, is the file in fact readable by the UID under which Xastir is running? Any messages on console while re-indexing? Any chance that reindexing didn't actually catch this one due to file modification times? Did "Re-index ALL maps?" do it? BTW, I'm here in Fort Collins for graduation weekend, though my APRS rig is currently off. Might have the odd moment or two to meet f2f if you can't get it figured out yourself. -- Tom Russo KM5VY SAR502 DM64ux http://www.swcp.com/~russo/ Tijeras, NM QRPL#1592 K2#398 SOC#236 http://kevan.org/brain.cgi?DDTNM echo "prpv_a'rfg_cnf_har_cvcr" | sed -e 's/_/ /g' | tr [a-m][n-z] [n-z][a-m] _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
