Title: GeoMap (Google Maps)
Post by: kiwilink on October 10, 2013, 08:45:23 PM
I noticed that Google Maps is still a drop down choice on the configuration tab so I tried this (see attachment) but it still comes up with Open Street.  Is there a file I should point to within the IMATCH5 directory to see the Google Map?

Click on the + in the RH top corner of the map panel for a menu:

Also in the Help under Map Panel >  Choosing a Map.

May I use the opportunity to mention that this is explained in the Map Panel help    (https://www.photools.com/community/Smileys/photools/rolleye11.gif):

Give it a read. Maybe you've accidentally overlooked other cool things the Map Panel can do for you...

I always go to the help menu first but I misunderstood the way it worked because before I asked the question here I read your explanation of the use of the MAP.  It was my original understanding that we could not use Google Maps without obtaining an individual license so I did not click on the drop down shown in the Help menu.  I thought I had to use it another way.  Sorry.
