Ladies and gentlemen, Some of you will remember that when I re-wrote the map widget plotting routines to run in parallel it broke the plotting system, spewing artefacts all over the widget. I am pleased to say that this has now been fixed and committed to CVS. I have also brought the option to use multi-threading under software control, instead of a compile-time option. I am currently working on a small utility to extract sections of coastline in a given area. This will allow you to load and use only your local coastline as opposed to that for the entire planet. This should reduce the memory footprint a bit, and will not hurt speed either. Hopefully this will be on CVS before christmas, and it later it will be integrated into the main OpenPilot GUI. Cheers for now, Tim B. -- OpenPilot - Open-source Marine Chart Plotter Lead Developer http://openpilot.sourceforge.net |
