Tobi,

This is an absolutely brilliant add-on! Thanks so much for making it
available. Please keep us posted on upgrades.

Larry


thanks for the kind comments. There is an upgrade available ( full
time control, realtime drift eliminate for those who want to synch
with seeyou and more). Probably there will be further upgrades during
the winter, but not in spring and summer at all. You may take a fast
look from the Help-Menu.
Bye Tobias

Tobias, this is an absolutely brilliant piece of work! Thank you so
much for writing it and offering it to the gliding community.

Great tool! Will it accept any other file format as input? I have an old
Garmin unit which will produce mapsource files - either .gdb or tab
delimited text. I know Gps Visualizer will convert some file types but I
don't see .igc as an available output file type.


You can convert the *.gdb files to *.igc files with g7towin.exe. A
web search should find the source.

No cigar.


I've got Google Earth 4.2 and the .NET 3.0 Framework with the very
latest updates. When you say the current .NET exactly what version and
update are you running against? On what OS platform? I'm on XP SP2 at
the very latest public release updates.


Anybody else got this to run?


Darryl


BTW a quick check with the debugger showed this apparently uses .NET
2.0, so you don't need to waste time downloading the NET 3.0
bloatware. I've emailedTobithe debug information.

Darryl


Tobias found the problem with his code and .NET strangeness on my
laptop, seems like it may have affect some other laptops as well.
Anyhow it is all working great on my ThinkPad now.

Thanks Tobias for this great utility!

Darryl,

So does that mean there's an updated application to download from
Tobias' site? I've been using it with a thinkpad, too, still think
it's an absolutely great program but have noticed some strangeness,
too.

Thanks,
Larry

There was an update recently, it at least fixed a .NET startup
problems on some laptops where the application would crash as I
described earlier. I am guessing that is very unlikely to be related
to any other problems - except Tobias told me that the left hand
control panel may size wrong on laptop displays but can just be
changed manually. I have no idea what other things if any changed. Why
don't you try the latest build anyhow and then email him a description
of the strangeness you are seeing. He is very responsive.

The new update has speed and thermal indicators and a skip thermals
function. Continues to improve with each update. For future updates
a choice of units for speed and thermals would be great.
