I recommend to add another call of config_save() to the end of settings_dialog().

Yes, I noticed this, and your suggestion has already been incorporated and will be in the next version of Maemo Mapper.

If you want to test this:
Code:
cd /var/lib/install/usr/bin
mv maemo-mapper maemo-mapper.bak
wget http://armin-warda.de/maemo-mapper
chmod a+x maemo-mapper
Source-Patches:
http://armin-warda.de/maemo-mapper-0.2.3-aw-0.1.patch
http://armin-warda.de/maemo-mapper-0...-0.1-0.2.patch
http://armin-warda.de/maemo-mapper-0...-0.2-0.3.patch

Your screenshot is similar to what I have in mind for the next version of Maemo Mapper, except that I don't plan to limit the UI to only 2 sources. The next version of Maemo Mapper will include support for an arbitrary number of dynamically-switchable (hopefully via menu items instead of the Settings Dialog) map sources.

Hi John,

just noticed that I did never said 'thanks' for this great app. Currently it is the most used application on my N770 - since I purchased an i-Blue Bluetooth GPS receiver. I am a regular cycler and hiker and only an occasional car driver/passenger, thus the ability to switch between Street Maps and Satellite Images (without changing the current position and zoom) is very important for me: Satellite Images are often more useful than Street Maps when you operate 'Off-Road'.

I hope, you understand, that whenever I post a patch or a modified executable or deb, I do not intend to fork Maemo-Mapper, or apply pressure on you to incorporate my change. (Of cause I hope you incorporate my suggestion.)

The reason for posting of patches and executables is: I do not want to be 'abstract product manager' type of 'suggestion maker', who simply puts up a feature-wishlist, without thinking about the effort of implementation and impact on performance, and other effects. Most of the time, when I suggest a change or feature, I try to create a prototype, or proof-of-concept for the change. Unfortunately I am a very unskilled and untrained programmer, thus my patches might be buggy, ugly, and not usable as-is.

regards, Armin.

If you don't have maps at the maximum zoom level (17 or 16), then you'll have to zoom in to the level of maps that you have. I find that the best way to start using Maemo Mapper is to use it with "Automatic Map Download" enabled and the Nokia 770 connected to the internet, then keep zooming in until you find the maps that you already have.

How did you download the 650 maps? With Maemo Mapper?
Are the maps in the correct directory structure (MAPDIR/zoom/x/y.jpg) and in the correct format (256x256 images)?
Did you set the correct "Map Cache" location in Maemo Mapper's settings (should start with /media/mmc1 if it's on the MMC card)?

My Maemo-Mapper still crashes consistently performing the actions described below. Dose anybody else experience this?

1- Going to Maps-Download Area, enter coordinates, select Zoom levels to download, click ok. I get a window that shows me the number of images that will be downloaded, click cancel, and select/deselect zoom levels. Go through changing the zoom levels couple of times and Maemo-Mapper crashes and quits. Hit the "clear" button and it crashes.

2- Try to save a Route to a folder on MMC. In the Save window, Scroll up/down few times and Maemo-Mapper crashes and quits.

Thanks,
Tigan
