Eric,
Now that the hurricanes have passed and things have gotten back to
normal (at least a little), thanks for the great hurricane coverage by
the way, I'd like to get back to the grid squares you did up for us.
I loaded all 350 meg of files into the maps folder of Xastir. But like
you warned that is way too much to go through all the time, not to
mention what a mess it makes of the map chooser on Xastir. So my
questions are many and I'm sure others would like to know too so here
goes one or two at a time.
First, I'm still having a problem at higher zoom levels seeing the
grid square number, I see the lines but not the numbers, not sure why.
On the same note I'd like to know if there is a way to control the
color of both the lines and the numbers, so that if the background
color is white like on Tiger maps for example I could turn the lines
and numbers red or some other contrasting color.
How can I set up the grids to only load for the maps showing on the
screen? And how can I clean up the map chooser, scrolling through all
the grid maps makes finding anything else time consuming and
difficult. Maybe we need to talk to Curt and the other developers
about a search box on the map chooser.
Hope you have time to talk about this, you did such great work with
all the grids and I would really like to make good use of them in my
SAR and balloon tracking activities.
Thanks...
