Import POIs with diggerQT 12 in PocketPC
  • Vote Up0Vote Down PaoloRPaoloR
    Hi all.
    I have a (big) problem when I try to import my POI files *.CSV.
    The icon is a separate file *.bmp. I have two file: redcameras.cvs (containing the data) and redcameras.bmp (containing icon).
    And import fails.
    Thanks.

    Hello Paolo

    I hope this doesn't sound trite, but if you have not made a typing error, then your problem could lie in calling the file redcameras.cVS instead of redcameras.cSV.

    If this is not the problem, please post some more details.

    Best

    Thanks for your reply.
    This is a typing error: my files are redcameras.csv and redcameras.bmp.

    There should be a log file next to digger (which would give us more info) + use PNG images instead of BMP (I am not sure if they are automatically converted).

    I have used a PNG image and the import works.
    I have selected a *.PNG file in:

    - object appearance assignment window

    - single object for all record

    - double click on style field

    - icon -> filename C:/Cartella temporanea/POI/Camping.PNG



    I have created some files *.mca, but in my pocketpc the imported POIs aren't visible and the list of POIs is the standard list: imported POIs aren't included.
    I must to copy the *.mca files into my pocketpc (windows mobile 5)?

    Help me, please!
    There is someone who can answer?
    I have copied *.mca files into a folder \iPAQ File Store\NavigatorFree, the same folder of the maps.
    (see attachment SNAG-0008.jpg http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/19/snag0008x.jpg/).
    But the imported POIs aren’t visible in the list (see attachment
    SNAG-0007.jpg http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/822/snag0007y.jpg/) and in the map.

    you did not install it correctly, I cannot see any subfolders in the navigator folder - fo4 that reason you have no icons

    I think I understand what happened.
    I did the import using the driver TOMTOM (*. Ov2) but, obviously, the data latitude and longitude were reversed.
    I redid the import using *. CSV and I chose the coordinates and everything works.
    It seems strange that no one has already noticed.
    If what I think is true (do some testing too) would be good to enter a few changes to the DIGGER.

    Where did you get your Ov2 file? (just checking that source was not incorrectly swapped)
