It's all about the Software

Just downloaded this super map, but I'm not sure how to set up the satellites.
There are no satellites to select. How do I get them?

Cheers

Simon

Is there a way to get the map to fill the screen when maximized? Mine always has a black space to the right of the map.

Hi Simon
Any progress on the 11m DXCC Prefixes ?

When I expand the World Map, it leaves a border at the bottom of my display as seen in the capture below. Is there any way to move the informational text at the bottom of the World Map into that border area. The monitor I'm using is supposedly...

I have created a VSPE virtual splitter port for my rotator so that the World Map can track PSTRotatorAZ. My serial port is COM3 and the splitter virtual port is COM20. While PST works fine on COM20, COM20 isn't listed at all in the World Map port...

So,

Yesterday evening I finally added optional station times to the display. Will make a kit soon...

Hi Simon
I find when adding new stations, when you add their time zone it doesn't take the first time, you have to go back in and set it again.

Hello.
Am I doing something wrong ?
Some prefixes is misplaced in my map.

Opened my thoroughly awesome SWM, and oh no! Its doing some kind of weird, vertical line thing again, like I stumbled across a long time back... :shock:

Uh, actually, Happy Equinox!!! :mrgreen: :lol:

Hi Simon

in World Map Is there way to turn off the seconds on the clock?

Um ... er ... I enjoy the clock application, but cannot re-size the clock on the Clock | Clock Size | -- IF I minimize the ribbon. Must I activate (not minimize) the ribbon bar if i want to resize the clock? Curious quirk. No big deal, just...

Hello all
I would be grateful for any pointers please. After several downloads I cannot get Simons world map to run. I get the initial screen with no map for a few seconds then it disappears.

Hi Simon,
Just a reminder, the virtual serial ports (like the ones created by VSPE) are not recognized by the rotator configuration.

Hello!

I've tried Simon's World Map, and I can't activate the 'Zoom In/Out' features at all.
It is possible or just a future plan?
I trying various map (large, small, etc...)

Really I'd like a 'close up' for Europe...

Thanks!

Wish: a faster way to set a specific city as your Home Location.

Reason: when you are working on a remote server and want to do distance calculations from that point.

How: using attached free city file in a way you prefer.... (cvs and xlsx...

Hello Simon
maybe similar to the day night shadow you could switch to a qo-100 shadow ?!?
At best with elevation lines at 0 degrees, 1, 2, 5, 10 degrees?!?
and/or with different shadow degrees (different grey colours) depending on elevation angle?!?

Hi Simon...

Tried out the latest (1.2) version last night... and noticed an odd effect with the shadow/light areas. Kinda a wrapping thing? Looks like I can't share a pic if I don't have it in a URL based location, or I'd share the screenshots I...
