[fixed] Landmark Open URL Fails !

Post by Yemble »

I've used this feature in AQ for years now and rely on it for route planning and navigation. However, when I tried to use it today (first time in 2019), it failed with an error. I have tried it on three separate devices and the error is the same. It is also occurs on both the release version (2.1.1f) and the latest beta (2.2.0-r5272).

Best described with pictures...

The GPX file is obviously OK, but the imported LDK seems to get corrupted when opened within AQ. If the GPX is opened outside of AQ, AQ then displays it correctly !

Hence my assertion that the internal GPX import function is broken in the latest versions.

Hi Yemble,

I've just published an update that should fix the GPX file problem.

Note that LDK files cannot be opened from another application. You must select them from directly from the application.
Just like map files.

Brilliant. Tested and working again :D

As for opening the LDK file from within FX, that was just part of my diagnostics path, trying to work out where the issue was.
