Hello all testers!
Safely arrived
Beaufort on passage from
Bahamas. Underway, I used Build 331,quilted and rotated, with new rtofs gribs. Stable so far....
Lots of discussion to catch up on. I'll hit some of it here:
1. cm93 quilting: Please understand that cm93 quilting is UNIMPLEMENTED so far. cm93 without any raster charts present in quilt mode looks and acts just like single-chart-mode (SCM). On my list for this release. Still designing....
2. cm93 buoy symbology: Many specific buoy types are symbolized as generic symbols taken from S52 Presentation Library standards. Its fiddly work to design and code symbology for different ATONs, and low priority for now.
3. Down arrow bug: acknowledged, thanks.
4. Bug on Delete Track from TrackProperties dialog: I will investigate. Changelog #38 was supposed to fix this. Sigh...
5. SENC crashing on quilting fixed: Oops, this fix fell off the Changelog. I think it was part of #30.....
6. Bad Makefile.am for new Russian and Czech language support. Acknowledged. I sometimes move too fast for my own good. I'll fix this ASAP.
7. if I select <AIS INPUT=NONE>, the ShowAIS icon should not be visible anymore. Agreed. Thanks, Pjotr.
8. Route Properties dialog, especially under Windows, is clearly broken. On the list...Any windows programmers out there?
9. NetSurfer comments on GPX
import (#90): I believe generic GPX Track and Route
import from the Toolbar works OK now, with reasonable defaults specified for the opencpn extensions if not found. Could interested users test this again, please? Do we need to change the default selection for waypoint icons? If this is OK, we will move on to RouteProperties debug....
10. More comments on Will's "North-Up" icon? (#103). Looks nice, but I dunno...I had to really search to find it. Seems a little too subtle for me....Comments?
11. cm93 Z scale at very high underzoom has some problems. Acknowledged. Will
research...
12. cm93 offset at some locations, some scales. This is related to Changelog #31. I will look at the locations mentioned in the Forum. Thanks.
13.
AIS target speed/status discussion: I await a concensus. PjotrC, could you drive this ahead, please, perhaps as a separate thread?
Well, that's enough for now. Thanks again for all your test efforts. We're getting better all the time....
I should be online fairly steadily now that I am back in the "old country". Thanks for your patience while I was out playing around.....
Dave
