Too many maps make gcc go default

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. I put 576 maps(576 jpgs + 576 txts) in maps folder, and it makes gcc to go 
default setting. 
2. And i put additional 16 maps, additionls does not show in gcc map screen. if 
I delete some files in above 576 maps, additionls shows well.
3. I hate context menu in maps, want some options to disable it.

Thanks for FANTASTIC gps program for cycling.
I hope somebody port gcc for ANDROID.

thanks.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Please provide any additional information below.

GCC can handle a maximum of 512 maps. There should pop up a message "Cannot 
load more than 512 maps". Maybe you can organize your maps in subdirectories 
with max 512 map files each.

My recommendation:
Consider to use OSM-style maps. These are map tiles with 256x256 pixel 
organized in a special directory structure with different zoom levels. Here the 
size is only limited by the capacity of your storage card. I recommend using 
"MOBAC" to download the map tiles. There are many map sources (including google 
maps).
If you want use your own maps, maybe you can find a tool to convert your maps 
into OSM-style.

3. IMHO it is no problem to operate the map screen without holding the finger 
at one place for such long time that the context menu pops up accidently.
