I'm experimenting with the GIS maps from the NWS at http://www.nws.noaa.gov/regsci/gis/shapefiles/

They work, with one caveat: They don't show up in the Map Chooser (even on a map re-scan) if they have 0 shapes in the shape file.

Is there any way, or a pointer to the code to fix it myself and submit a diff back, where this is handled. To get around it, I copied a shape file with polygons over it to the same file, did a rescan so they show up, then put them back after I selected them.

Essentially, in this case, the map chooser should consider a 0 shape shapefile valid. This is a fun one to reproduce because the source files at NWS are changed on a 1 minute basis.

Which leads to second question, does Xastir automatically re-render these when they change or is there something I need to do to make it so.

Thanks
