Yes. I can see "Loading (slice file name)" for a moment at the bottom part of screen.

Indeed, the display blinks after new slice is loaded, but what bothers me more is that the scrolling slows down and screen does not get updated correctly, I have to release the joystick, wait for a while, and then the scrolling continues as usual. Do you see the same behaviour?
I'll try to do something about it. |
It is so, but I don't have to release the joystick. If I hold the joystick, the scrolling map stops for a while (about 1 sec.) and then continues scrolling. Maybe it is a question of dimension of slices. The larger slices, the longer delay you have to wait. I have slices 300x400 pix./32 color.

No, you will have the same with 256x256 8 bit colour.

I'm using 300x400 8bpp. I'll have a look at it, for sure...
Now I'm working on 10-final-meters-guiding-screen (not only) for geocachers, next task is fixing the scrolling annoyances on K750i. These two things will make the 0.9.3 version, by the way...  |

| Little cosmetic error in geocaching coordinates format - not necessary leading "0" takes place ... Pls find picture in attachment. |

I found small error when navigating to waypoint. (0.9.2a)

Arrow show wrong direction to waypoint, and azimuth is incorrect too.
Also i think, tracklog question should be disabled when using gps simulator option. |

... another little thing:
... reconnecting works for me, BRAVO, but the icon doesn t change back to the green-all-right-thing after a reconnection is done.
... reconnection time:
... please add an option, how long a reconnection is possible (1min, 5min, 1h, ever?) and/or a switch to keep the search-sound only for 30seconds. why? yo ask?. I want to keep the device on, and it logs, when i come near.
... please, please, would like an option, for a bigbig (speed, km etc.) numbers - overlay
... tested on w800@k750i, m. |

Krzysiek,
It was in simulator mode ?
Could you attach NMEA log ?

| No, i found it when browsing map without any connection. I loaded wp from gpx, and when set to navigate to wp i manually move map to check if the wp is in correct place (wp converted by gpsbabel from oziexplorer). |

I see.
If you don't use location provider, TB counts position from map coordinates. So first you should place crosshair in identical position. As I can see your sample, you have pixel difference between these two positions.
Second, the arrow couldn't have too many angles on so small raster screen.

I know, that TB uses coords from .map file when disconnected. Arrow is only to show general direction, but azimuth should give accurate direction.
Distance to target is about 486m, position is hanged for 0.003', and azimuth is hanged from 0 to 327? |

reconnection & tracking:
... another little thing:
after connection fails, tb makes allways a new file, when it tries to connect, so you get hundreds of 0kb files ... maybe it is posible to write in the old file (as option) or start only with a new file when a reconnection is sucessfull ...
... but like the reconnection very very much

In top line of screen crosshair coordinates are displayed, so you can see that position is different. The overall accurancy in such mode depends on map resolution. And the azimuth arrow just changed its angle by one step.
Could you really walk or drive with 1 or 5 degree azimuth accurancy ?
For me 45 is enough.
That's all.

I'll check the reconnection issues, guest . What do you mean by overlay? "... please, please, would like an option, for a bigbig (speed, km etc.) numbers - overlay "
I'll also add option for omitting leading "0" in MinDec format, though I thought it is "standard" for geocaching (all caches I saw at geocaching.com had them)?
krzysiekz for azimuth to change by 35 degrees, the waypoint would have to be really close on map with your scale, so I guess there's a bug in TB (I did some optimizations, I may have introduced a bug there) - I'll check it. |

... use tb sometimes on routes I know. On this routes a do tracklogging and i just want to see my speed (km/h) or just the walked/driven way (km) as BIG, as possible ... this could be done with big NUMBERS over the map, or on an own screen (switch on/off Num-Key) ... would be nice ...
