There is a minor GUI glitch at my 1680 x 1050 display (see screenshot) which does not affect functionality, but ... Wink

(JTLYK)

Anyway, thanks for this fine release. I really like AMAP integrated in TBAC.

I know this glitch - but it can not be fixed.
In older versions I implemented a workaround but that caused more problems than the glitch was. Therefore I removed it.

Sorry, I just noticed that the readme does not contain a separate section for OSMTracker - but you can read the section for AndNav instead.
Both map creators are 99% identical - including the restrictions.

The following settings are ignored when creating atlases for AndNav / OSMTracker:
Recreate/adjust map tiles (custom tile size and image format)
Name of all layers and maps
Structure of the atlas (which maps belongs to which layer)

Currently only TrekBuddy maps use the custom image format including image conversion. If that should be changed from your point of view feel free to file a feature request at Sourceforge:

I am getting this message while downloading maps. I get this message even while downloading at zoom level 4 with just 4 tiles. What can be the problem. Please help.

Secondly I had Gaarmin XT for Windows Mobile with my Map file as "gmapsupp.img" (size approx - 40MB). Is it possible to covert this into TB atlas.

Regards

Tarun

is there a way to join maps together??

for example an identical map area with different zoom.

it would be good if I can download the map area, example from zoom 5-12, after the download is done, then I download the zoom from 13-17 and join then together.

I guess its less demanding for the bandwidth too.

Thanks

@guest: This dialog appears only if the sum of the tile count of all maps in the "atlas content" is higher than 3.000.000 tiles.
If you are trying to download only one map thiy may be a computation error. Please save the atlas as profile, open a bug tracker entry at sourceforge:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=238075&atid=1105494
and attach the xml file of the saved profile.

@caretaker:
I am sorry but I do not understand what "joining two maps" could be.
May be this: "Support for multi layer maps" https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2884848&group_id=238075&atid=1105497

Tarun, may be you don't know about significat differences between raster maps and vector maps. Garmin maps are vector maps in a proprietary Garmin IMG format. TAC downloads online maps in raster format, displays them and allows their conversion into supported raster atlas formats. I mean your question is too much out of scope of TAC.[/quote]

You are right dear, but I have read somewhere about converting Garmin Map Source into TB Atlas, so why I asked this Question.

Hi mobrob, maybe you already noticed this small thing to correct:

There should be kB/s instead of MB/s
(but as I see I didn't use the last version)
