Has Mapsi a feature that shows the route you have been moving, displaying the route as a red line? I've been using mapsi as very useful gps tool in fishing and especially trolling (uistelu). It would be very helpful if mapsi would show the route you have been moving so that you could steer the boat slightly different route at the next "round". I've used the latest version 2.6.0 and previous one. Or, if this feature does already exists, please tell me how to use it, thanks... And by the way, nautical maps is more than welcome, especially with windows version! I owe you a pint or two, orava..

Hi all,
I'm having problems installing Mapsi. I downloaded the 2.6.0 version and it installed itself fine (I had already installed the earlier version as well). Now when I open it, I just get a purple screen with the grey arrows on top of that... What am I doing wrong? Could someone post step-by-step instructions on how to get Mapsi going for a not-so-advanced-technology-user like me
.
Thank you in advance!

If you press and hold that button it'll open menu from where you can save or clear your track.

There are also a couple of features that I don't understand yet. What are the two last map options in the menu? Also, on the display on the top center, where the coordinates are given, on the left side there's this line with red and green balloon endings. When I press that, it says "calculating route", but nothing happens?
Sorry that I'm asking these obvious questions, but as I see this app pretty useful, I'd like to take full advantage of its features.
Edit:
Yeah ok, I learnt the function of those two last map options when combining info in this thread, but as said, instructions with some screen shots would be awesome. Anyways, thanks for the great app, can't wait to take my n900 to the sea now!

Thanks for advise and again for the great application!

Is there, by any chance, any way to use laptop as bigger screen for mapsi and N900? The idea would be to use this combination as a navigation/map screen (chartplotter) when sailing.
