Re: OpenCPN Version 3.2.2 Released

It is the text in the "Route Name" column. The Route Names will all be blank,though if you re-start the text of the Route Names will re-appear.

Re: Open CPN Manual

I just downloaded the latest Mac version: OpenCPN 3.1.1319. When you click on "Help" all you get is a link to the online manual at OpenCPN.org.

Maybe version 3.2, when it's available ??????

USB crash

Using the Mac version of Open CPN.

When I unplug the USB GPS, the program crashes AND the computer (MacBook Air) crashes. Have to restart the computer.

Is this glitch on the "fix" list?

Re: Beta Test / Technical

When I download and try the 3.1.915, I get an error message: failure to initialize user interface. So, the version will not open at all.

No, they are all waypoints created in OpenCPN. Generally, they came from creating a route and dropping marks at turning points, then adding names and symbols to the waypoints. They were created and...

Re: Beta Test / Technical

I should add that I can delete one waypoint at a time, no problem. It's only when I try to delete all waypoints that it hangs.

Re: Beta Test / Technical

Yes, it "hangs" rather than crashes. I've left it for 15 minutes to see if was just slow.

This is a new machine, MacBook Air, i5 intel, should be plenty fast.
