White Box

Post by kinetic »

Not sure if more work has been done with the white box problem.
Downloaded V1.0f. When trying to erase a map plot I get the white box.

What happens when you go to Map > Generate, generate a new map, and use that map? What happens when it is erased?

Avoid maps generated in earlier versions and you'll be fine.

I tried what you said and it plots fine. You'll have to provide the version # and a detailed description of the steps leading up to the error, as otherwise I cannot create an error condition and thus can't repair anything that might be wrong.

I patched with 1.0f and occasionally I'm experiencing the crash, but it cannot be easily reproduced. It comes and goes.
I will refrain on this, at the time being, but it is really annoying.
Crashed DAWS once, it will crash forever and with any combination of settings, until reboot.

Tim,

I usually have two applications open of DAWS. One for the UK, and one for Europe. The Erase on the first [UK] application is now OK with V1.0f, and does not need a map regenerated. However, the Europe map when erased just clears the white box and the UK map is visible underneath.
When I regenerate the Europe map its OK.
