There is no Tip #26. Tip #25: GPSy supports Contextual Menus. Hold down the control-key while clicking in the map window to easily copy or upload map waypoints. Tip #24: The latest version of QuickTime is 3.02, you can download it from: http://www.apple.com/quicktime/ Tip #23: Updates to GPSy™ are released quite often, so check the website every month or so: http://www.gpsy.com Tip #22: Use the “Copy map point” command and a text editor or database program to quickly build waypoint and route lists. Tip #21: You can cancel this operation by typing Command-. (period). Tip #20: Want to learn more about GPS technology? http://www.gpsy.com/gpsinfo Tip #19: Patience is a virtue. A fully loaded PowerMac G3 is pure sin. Tip #18: Many universities have map rooms (and scanners) in their libraries - a great source for scanned maps. Tip #17: GPSy supports TFW (TIFF World) calibration files. See: http://www.gpsy.com/faq/maps.html for more information. Tip #16: The bearing indicator doesn’t always point directly to the next waypoint on large scale maps because GPSy uses “Great Circle” routing. Tip #15: USGS Topo Map (DRG) CD-ROMs aren’t copyrighted so it’s perfectly legal to buy one copy and share it with all your friends. Tip #14: Send us your own map tips and see your name in lights: tips@gpsy.com Tip #13: The “Locate” command under GPSyLink™ will center the map on the current position. Be sure to switch the GPSyLink type to “GPSy Digital Map.” Tip #12: Save calibration files in their own folder with easy to find names, rather than the esoteric original TIFF/JPEG ones. Tip #11: “Create Previews” for maps before calibrating them; the calibration files will then be “previewable.” Tip #10: GPSy™ takes advantage of virtual/RamDoubled™ memory when opening large images due to its image cache structure. However, for best performance, turn VM/RD off. Tip #9: All customer support is handled through e-mail: Report bugs to: bugs@gpsy.com Technical support: support@gpsy.com Tip #8: Large JPEG images that won’t open in GPSy™ and other QuickTime® software can often be downconverted to 256-color TIFFs. Tip #7: You can drag and scroll the map by holding down the space key. Tip #6: You can scroll maps using the ArrowKeys and zoom in and out with the Apple-ArrowKeys. Tip #5: Reduce or slice up large maps using your favorite graphic program to improve speed. Tip #4: GPSy™ compatible digital maps can be found at : http://www.gpsy.com/maps Tip #3: Reducing monitor colors to 256 colors will improve speed and conserve screen cache memory; although maps display best in deep color spaces. Tip #2: GPSy™ uses system temporary memory rather than application memory for map image caches. Quit other apps and turn VM/RamDoubler off for best performance. Tip #1: I suggest getting some coffee… Creating low-resolution image cache... (Command-. to cancel lo-res cache) Caching large image file to memory. The map imaging routines may take a few minutes on a slow machine. 25 tips (not including the 2 warning comments)
