GoodAnchorage

[wdkester]

I like GoodAnchorage; good level of detail and not cluttered with useless info (like Active Captain). It worked OK on 4.0; but it barely works (for me) on 4.2. I using the latest PI from filethingy. I have tried 2 W7 and 1 W8. My last try was on the W7 system that worked well with OpenCPN4.0. I circled Cuba and got details on, maby, 4 anchorages. The types of errors I see are shown in the screen shots. The "right click again" error can be right clicked many times without producing details.

I would like to work with the author to get this PI running well. as I think it is well suited for the OpenCPN user.

Rebuilding goodharbors, fresh with opencpn.lib 4.2.0

Got this warning:

Otherwise seems to be ok. Probably could be updated with some of the utilities for downloads developed in Chart Downloader.

Will package, try it and upload to File thingie under 4.2.0 PI WIN

Right now using Pavel's version, but there is one in Sean's git and one for goodanchorage too.

https://github/goodanchorage/goodanchorage_pi
https://github/seandepagnier/goodanchorage_pi
also the one I used https://github/nohal/goodanchorage_pi

This plugin is working. Getting it to download is a little choppy. I had to turn charts onto an Empty Chart Group with just the background outline gshhhs, then I could double click to download without a chart object coming up.

The download tools could be better and faster perhaps if they used some of the same tools that Chart Downloader uses.

I will upload to file thingie.

David, can you give this version a test for us?
Thanks. The version from 4.1.1108 may work, but it is using an early v4.1.x opencpn.lib.

I am sure this can be improved for download speed, but it is seems to work for me on Win10 Opencpn 4.2.0

No better than the last try. I tried deleting the database, but no help. I get details on 1 out of 20 anchorages. I did get the Nantucket anchorage with ENC's showing. I'm using W7. I don't have a W10 system.

Sorry David. I tried. I guess this one needs work too. Perhaps TDan, Pavel or goodanchorage can help.

I don't think you have used any of the links above because they are wrong.
The address of github is not https://github/ but correct: https://github.com/

Yes you are correct gerhard. I cut and pasted it from a list. Url is not complete.
