View PDF broken link ATM in Aus

[Desmond]

Please be advised. Today, when I touch the 'PDF' the app searches the wrong place.
e.g. I touch PDF while the YPMQ info box is open & I get a diag box saying: "PDF file is not available . . . . YB/YPMQ"

So it seems to always be assuming the wrong direct parent folder.

This is somewhat Urgent

You probably chose
- "PMQ" Port Macquarie

instead of

YPMQ PQQ "Port Macquarie"

Try zooming on the map.
If you select YPMQ PQQ "Port Macquarie" it should work

If you are want to use PDFs, you must download them (via FIF or manually)

- When you download PDF via FIF, all PDFs are located at .../GPS_ILS_VOR/PDF_system/country code/ICAO
- All user PDFs must be located at .../GPS_ILS_VOR/PDF/country code/ICAO

If you want to create all folders for some country:
- Open Nav database
- Open folder World database
- Long tap ath desired country
- Tap at Create PDF folders at context menu.

Okay,
I've been DLing PDFs manually for over a year quite successfully. It seems you have changed the folder ladder structure recently. I must have missed that in the update announcements.

I must really behind the times because the folder named 'YM' threw me. I really thought Australia's [country] ICAO code was 'Y'.

I'll have a mess around and get it going again, thanks

Sorry, I realized, there were some changes. Each nav database item now has country code. If country code is filled, it is used for PDF...

Okay, I got it working on 13 Sep.


Please understand, I think you should correct the 'country ICAO' descriptor within the script that governs search criteria. (e.g. upon tapping 'PDF' from map screen dialog box).

The app currently requires all Australian PDFs be put in a folder called 'YM'. I know you will agree that this is wrong as a cursory check of any of our [Australian] NAV items clears away any confusion.

We [now] know the storage folder should be labelled 'Y' in accordance with our country's ICAO discriptor.

However, I do not feel this is urgent anymore.

Thanks again.
