Typ viewer

It's strange indeed, only polylines....
MY OS is windows 8.1 x64

Version 4.5.24 has the same problem in Win7 & Win10 also. If i type a letter cursor returns before hashtag but its OK when i type a number. I used "Caps Lock" to solve the problem. Probably the thing is that TYPViewer types capital letters no matter what's the choice on the keyboard.

Ok, I understand now: the problem appears when typing letters in lower case.... I will fix it.

Edit: Here is a mofified version for testing (you can also test drag&drop, note that this version of TYPViewer does not run with elevated privileges so if it causes problems, please report...)

This problem solved in the test version 4.5.26, thanks.

1. The new drag&drop feature does not work for me repeatedly, if I close the first open file via the 'File/Close file' menu.
2. I cannot delete the path to the TYP file in the registry via the 'Tools/Install a TYP file', even as an administrator.

I didn't have any problems editing polylines or with drag & drop with this version, UAC is permanently disabled anyway. Tested with Win7 & Win10.

EDIT

If i use "Close file", in order to be able to drag & drop a TYP file again i have to use "New" option first.

I have the same problem deleting the path to the TYP file using "Install a TYP file" menu. Also before i can enter to this menu i get this error:
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

IMHO:
Let's leave alone the 'drag&drop' feature.
Not much use in doing it, but there are many problems.
I think many users are unlikely to use this ever ...

It's better to select the files association while installing the program, I guess.

Two stupid bugs....It is fixed now (unrelated to Drag&drop and admin privileges)

@Ellinas

Also before i can enter to this menu i get this error:

Please, could you try with this version: I have changed the error handler so that you can give me more details

**Ellinas** · 8th July 2015, 07:04 PM

I got a different error this time but i was able to delete the path of TYP file.

No problem with drag & drop after using "Close File" with this version. New small window with OK option only to continue is coming up every time.

I have the same situation (like Ellinas), but there is no Runtime error.
The small window (with OK) is annoying.

OK thanks, I have removed this window in this version

In this version, I have added another error handler in an other procedure, please tell me the new error message.

It seems that you have installed at least one gmap folder somewhere else than in :C:\ProgramData\Garmin\Maps and that you have put a link in this folder (a link pointing to your gmap folder), is it correct?

It seems that this error has nothing to do with my recent changes: can you please try an old version like 4.5.7 that you can find here:
