Zugg Software :: View topic - [3.01] Problem opening and displaying saved map

Posted: Sat Nov 22, 2008 6:48 am

When I opened a saved map, the map loads but displays a blank screen and no zone is selected in the zone drop down list. In addition the name 'untitled' appears three times in the drop down. Selecting any one of these zones display the map as expected.

Sounds like it's still having trouble converting that specific map. If "untitled" appears in the zone drop down 3 times, then somehow it found 3 zones in your map called "untitled".

The map might display a blank screen the first time after a conversion if there was no information in the file about what room and zone was last being viewed. That info is stored in the map database, so an error during conversion could prevent it from loading, or if the map file was corrupted. But once you select a zone and exit the session, then the new mapper should remember the last zone/room being viewed so you won't get the blank screen again.

If you did any sort of "Continue Application" during the map conversion/loading process, that could cause this problem too.

Well this wasn't a converted map. This was a completely new and manually created map for 3.01. It's possible that since i saved it to the desktop that may have been the cause of the error.
