Grayline Map in 5.17 (647) grossly inaccurate

Unread post by N6KRJ »

The Grayline Map seems to have a number of grossly inaccurate issues.

Referencing the screen grab attachment:

1. The Green Flag is no where near the configured location (CM95pp) in the settings. CM95 is roughly near where the checkered flag is displayed.
2. Note that the gridsquare location for the checkered flag location is reported wrong, says EO52... but that's nowhere accurate - that is closer to the CM95.

The blue/red line appears to be plotted correctly, but the flags and location are wrong; I'm not exactly sure. It seems the the flags are just not being translated to the correct origin as they seem to be correct relative to each other, but incorrect relative to the map.

This is running:
RUMLogNG 5.17 (647) from AppStore
MacOS Ventura 13.6.7

This is what I see when entering CM95pp:

Is this correct? Please note: A long mouse click in to the map resets your home position.

I'm wondering about the wide borders on both sides. This should not be. See my screen shot. What happens when you resize the window?

Okay when I resized the window using the handles, the whole window then resized itself, and the positioning got "better". Your screengrab looks more accurate than mine, but it might just be the lower resolution of my shack computer.

I do think I figured out how I got it into that state. I use a window manager called DIVVY, which I use to quickly tile the windows I want on my display without overlap. My guess is that the way it resizes the window doesn't trigger the resize event in MacOS - which I'm guessing you use to rescale the image and adjust window aspect ratio.
