Hello
Operating system: Windows XP SP3
Gmapcatcher version: 0.8.0.5
What new or enhanced feature are you proposing?
Presently, when using the option to download the maps using RMaps, it is
necessary to be careful to use a different folder per map service.
On each folder, the map files go to the file tile-Map.sqlitedb and the
satellite photos to the file tile-Satellite.sqlitedb.
Once a folder has been selected in the settings, if Gmpacatcher is online, the
new maps or satellite photos will update the files of this folder, even if the
map provider is not the initial one.
Therefore, if the user is not careful, the SQL files will contain a mixture of
tiles coming from different map providers.
Example:
Initial downloads were done one with Virtual Earth maps. The maps cover a
certain area with certain zoom levels.
A few days later the user opens GMapcatcher. He doesn't change the settings.
But he selects Openstreet map provider and visualizes while on line an area and
zoom levels not existing previously.
The SQL file, initially containing VirtualEarth maps, is updated with the
Openstreet maps.
When viewing the map offline, the map is a mixture of two providers (see
attached file).
Desired solution:
To have the same behavior when using RMaps than for Files.
When the option "use a different folder per map service" is selected in the
"Change theme" tab of the "GMapCatcher tools" window, a subfolder with the name
of the map provider is automatically created in the folder selected for RMaps
when the user uses the map provider for the first time. This subfolder will
contain the files corresponding to the map provider, and will be used whenever
the user selects the corresponding map provider.
What goal would this enhancement help you achieve?
Avoid to have a mixture of map providers in a same SQL file, when this mixture
is not desired.
Thanks and best regards
