Hey Curt,
Playing around with the new maps say aerial.geo, it works from a zoom
level of 1 to 64 but with a larger zoom level like 128, the screen is
black except for the various APRS objects when zoomed a bit. Other
maps show all grey. Does the black vs. grey have a significance?
National.geo - the screen is light grey except for the
various APRS objects
Sub_National.geo - the screen is light grey except for the
various APRS objects
Sub_Regional.geo - the screen is light grey except for the
various APRS objects
Aerial.geo: - works for zooms 1 to 64 then the screen is black
ShadedRelief.geo - works for zooms 1 to 8 then the screen is
light grey
Topo1-10.geo - works for zooms 1 to 8 and then the screen is
light grey
TopoRelief1-78.geo - the screen is light grey except for the
various APRS objects
Other maps like Regional, Coutours, Hydrography, and transportation
work fine. Maybe the black vs. grey behavior is known in Xastir but
since I'm still new to it, I'm not aware of it. Maybe there is a way
to display in the UI something like "map not available at this zoom -
try 1 to 64". That would be a lot more user friendly.
I'm also seeing with this new Xastir version when loading these new
maps, it's not saying "loading tiles.." in the lower left. It says
"Map not found in cache...". Is there a way to make this a little
more intuitive? Maybe change this to "Loading map from network..."
would be more intuitive?
Thanks again for adding these new maps!

Well with that where is the weather radar maps now?
I don't see any way in the newest build to display the weather radar.
