graphic
The Hex view is for getting more insight into a trip file.
The selection of the Hex view is synched with the Tree view, or grid. (On the left part)

It is possible to modify the file, and save it using the button ‘Save Trip File’. Also on the device. NO recalculation is forced.

The OSM shows the selected trip. Shaping points are blue bullets, Via points are red. Lines between points are drawn in the color specified in settings. (default: Magenta) If the trip is calculated lines are drawn between UdbDir’s and follow the road more precisely. If you select a Location, or an mUdbDataHndle a popup is shown on the map. You can add routes/tracks from a gpx to the map as an overlay, to compare the calculated trip with.


Tips:
·   Hold, and move the left mouse button to position the map.Use the Mouse wheel to zoom.
·   Use CTRL + Mouse wheel to change the font size.
·   Use CTRL + Left Click to get the exact gps coordinates in the edit box.
·   If you hover the mouse above a line, it shows the trip name in the edit box.
·   If you hover the mouse above a blue/red point, it shows the via/shaping point name in the edit box.

Notes:
·   To use ‘Open Topo Map’ and ‘TOP Plus Open’ no registration is required.
·   Maximum zoom level is not available in all parts of the world.
·   Occasionally Map Tiler tiles remain white/magenta. This problem is still not fixed. If it happens reloading the tile usually resolves the problem.
