I have recently purchased Trackranger Pro-7 and a USB Gps. plus 100k Raster maps of Western Australian coast.
I have got Trackranger and GPS working ok, but seem to be unable to get any maps to load. keeps coming up with error messages about showing a toolbar, or not showing a toolbar.
Any ideas, I am losing hair at a rapid rate, lol

Hello

I am no expert on Trackranger but I have successfully opened both the South Coast and West Coast 100K mosaic maps (ECW format) on my PC with no problems (using Trial version of Trackranger (V: W7.4.2.a).

Is the error message referring to the "mini" toolbar. This can be turned off and on in the VIEW menu along the top of screen....though no idea if toggling this on/off would help.

If you dont find a solution via this forum suggest you first try reinstalling the program and having another go..if that fails ring the Trackranger guys direct.

Cheers
Greg

I sent one final shout after him to stick to the track, to which he replied “All right,” That was the last ever seen of Gibson - E Giles 23 April 1874
