help! what do i have to change so i can use the "index" map button, or the "show other maps" at this position button,so that my maps come up?
all my maps are in subfolders at c:\oziexplorer\index maps\maps
in config "system" tab filepaths are mapfilepath c:\oziexplorer\maps
& datafilepath c:\oziexplorer\data
in "map images" tab i have no filepaths

you need to change your file path to where the maps are. e.g. c:\oziexplorer\index maps\maps so that OziExplorer knows where to find your maps.

Ken,
Assume you are familiar with using Windows Explorer------
Open the C:\ drive.
The folder structure within the C:\oziexplorer installation looks like this......
C:\oziexplorer--
-------------------\data, the data folder contains your waypoints, tracks,
routes.
-------------------\index maps, this folder contains your index map images and [index]map files
-------------------\maps, this folder contains your map images and your map files.
You can make subfolders within the "maps" folder to organise your information, but you must ensure your *.map files are in the "maps" folder.........so..........
1st up, move all your map images and *.map files in their subfolders to the C:\oziexplorer\Maps folder.
2nd, leave all your index map files and index map image files in the C:\oziexplorer\Index maps folder.
3rd, Open OziExplorer and then Open the Configuration dialogue box,
On the "Map images" tab Set Path 1 to C:\oziexplorer\maps,
and on the Check Drives column [on the right] put a tick in the C:\ drive radio button.
Save and close "Configuration".
You should now be able to open index maps from the Radio button and call up all maps at the cursor location using the button.
Just make sure when using the All maps call up that the small red cross on the call button is not depressed as it locks the file path if depressed.
Cheers
