G'day Guys, I use that function all the time. This evening I hunted down & resolved what may have been a similar problem where I had accidentally double clicked & placed two points on the same spot. Once I located the offending point & separated them I was able to successfully smooth the line. I hav...

Bit of a guess from memory, although if you want to edit either lines or poly's (insert, delete or break points) you need to highlight the respective button beforehand so it may have come from that.

G'day Jose,

Got confused with the forum layout. Meant to post in the FSX topic.

No worries Dick,

Had me stumped for a while too. Still trying to work out how to exclude Helo pads.

Cheers,

Ross

Anybody have any idea on how to exclude unwanted helipads?
I have one in the wrong position at YBCS & am having difficulty in removing it.
Any suggestions?

Cheers,

Ross

G'gay Guys,

When you go to select the parent water poly I found I must highlight the poly button on the task bar before it will work. Have you tried this?

Cheers,

Ross

Well I have now had some success in getting my new scenery to show. However I can only get polygons so far but no shore lines. I removed the previous exclude poly I had which intersected the water one & I now can see the added canal I intended to add. No shore line though. Anybody had any success wi...

Hi Jose,

That's an excellent idea to use your aircraft position to indicate where you need to zoom to. Will remember it in future.

Cheers,

Thanks for the reply's Luis & Jose. Much appreciate your help. Well it looks like the background map was there all the time however it was so small I was unable to locate it. [:I] Have now done a series of maps zooming out to cover Australia entirely - won't have trouble finding my way around any mo...

Well looks like I jumped the gun a bit. It appeared last night that I had the maps working OK. I was able to see YBBN airport & the mouth of the Brisbane river as per my cached manifold Google Map. So I began work on trying to exclude part of the coastline & draw a canal/ river that is missing from ...

Hi Jose, I have the maps working now by the look of things. Late in the evening here now so I will have a play around with this in the morning & let you know how I get on. Quite remarkable how the program now calibrates its own maps. I am looking forward to working with this. Many thanks for your he...

Thanks for the responses guys.
Will give that a go.
I had downloaded & installed Manifold but didn't know what to do with the maps to get them into SBuilder.

Cheers,

Ross

I'm still having no luck in getting a background map to show properly. Is there a link to any info on how to use this? I have tried doing it via version 205 however I still cannot get it to work. The one map I did get to show properly & appeared to match up with my aircraft position in FSX didn't sh...
