The shareware version can only use BMP files for the map image.
The registered version can use BMP, JPG, PNG files but the preferred format is TIFF files as these
can be paged from disk and therefore have a lower RAM requirement.
The TIFF files supported must have at least the following format :
Scanlines must be arranged in strips (not tiles), preferably 1 scanline per strip.
256 colors or 256 GrayScale (8 bit) , 16 color (4 bit) , 2 color (B&W)(1 bit) -
16 bit and 24 bit
color are not supported.
Packbits is the only compression method supported for color images, FAX CCITT 3 can be
used for 1 bit (B&W) images.
The PNG (Portable Network Graphics) format is a highly compressed format which can give similar
compression to GIF. To use this format you need to have the dll LPNG.DLL available from the web
site. Put the dll in the Oziexplorer directory.
For Map Feature pictures the image type can be BMP or JPG.
Display Corner Markers
-
Many maps have a border around the actual map (called the neat line).
OziExplorer can make use of the neat line to change maps when you cross this boundary when using
moving map real time tracking mode. So the software can detect where the actual map boundaries
are you must position the corner markers on the map corners.
The corner markers will default to the corners of the image, if your map has no borders (neat line)
there is no need to move the corner markers.
To place the Corner Markers :
1.
Press the Show Corner Markers Button. The corner markers will now be visible, they will
initially be positioned on the corners of the image.
2.
Close the Advanced Option dialog to get it out of the way.
3.
Move the map image to show a corner marker and drag it to the corner of the actual map, if the
borders are large you may have to drag the marker and then reposition the map a couple of
time before you can position the marker.
4.
Do this process for each corner.
When finished the effect should be something like this.
5.
Save the map to store these positions.
