Can anyone suggest what I might have done or not done?
I had Xastir running on openSUSE 10.2 with Xastir from early last year. I had
shapefile maps from the County Surveyor displaying properly.
I reinstalled openSUSE 11.0 and installed the latest Xastir with CVS. After
copying in the same set of maps that I had been using before with the same
dbfawk files, I everything, except points, in black, one wide line, and all
fills in a dark gray. The points are in a red "x" and the labels for the
points are visible at all zoom levels ( not the way I had it before.)
Any ideas what I did or didn't set? I looked at the dbfawk files and the
appear to be as I had them before.
Before I go changing things, I thought I would as for suggestions.
Many thanx................ jt
Only thing I can guess is that you somehow recompiled Xastir without DBFAWK
support --- that is what it sounds like, because the behavior of Xastir on
shapefiles without dbfawk is about what you describe.
Look at the "Help->About" dialog and check the "Libraries used:" line. Do
you see "PCRE dbfawk" there? If so, I'm wrong in my guess.
That was it, Tom..... Thank you.
What is listed on the Help>about is "Libraries are: AX25 GPSMan libProj
GeoTiff Shapelib rtree wget @(#)Motif Version 2.30"
It seems like there were many more before --- yes, I DO NOT know what I
am doing <grin> Am I missing other significant libraries?
Did I grab the wrong CVS? Did I not completely follow the directions to
get everything gathered before compiling? I am off to search for
instructions, but does anyone have a pointer for me to get to the
correct document? Yes.. I know.. RTFM.... That is where I am going.
Thanks again, Tom..... Thanks to Curt for all my dumb questions last
week .... and thanks to the Xastir Community. Everyone one is amazingly
helpful. Compared to the groups associated with other pacakages out
there, it is a delightfully refreshing change.
THANKS!!!!!!
Talk to you later............... jt
