Re: OpenCPN Beta Version 4.6.26 Release Candidate

Problem with icons

I had waypoints with empty icons. They are now shown even if I select an empty icon for the waypoint.

Ubuntu 16.04, O 4.6.26 from ppa or compiled from git master.

Thanks
Jean-marie

Is there a way to change the boat in the program for your own boat or ship shape size?
Regards

How are they shown? What do they look like?

Thanks

Re: OpenCPN Beta Version 4.6.26 Release Candidate

See my posts & config in 4.6.22 thread. Have dwnlded v 4.6.26 surfpro3 win10 creator, with 93 charts, scrolled around & zoomed up to computer mem use 75% and O memory use at 1100mb. Very smooth and quick, only 2 instances of black screen momentarily. Then paused O, machine hot, O mem use dropped to 800 mb and computer mem used 70%. Then while writing this it went down to comp mem use 58% and O with only 6.1mb!

This is not using an active route, or having gps and instrument data, and not vdr recording.
Will try that tomorrow.

You have read this:

Windows hardware seems not to be the best choice.

Re: OpenCPN Beta Version 4.6.26 Release Candidate

Gerhard, I have no doubt that is correct. I happen to like the format , lightweight and portable but it will no doubt die in the salt air someday. For now it is good.
Thanks Dear Friend for giving me the bad news.
