Right, okay, I finally got it to display a map. I must say the whole
concept of Gpsdrive is very strange. Not allowing one to scroll around
on a map is odd at best, at worst a real hang up of a UI problem. The
zoom buttons and the slider at the bottom also seem strange at first and
quite confusing for a new user.
I really like the app but do believe it requires a bit of UI and
operational changes or a very in depth "New User" guide. I guess I
would say that it is outside the normal point and scroll that most
people would probably expect to begin with.
Well done at any rate and to the developers, thank you.
