[mkgmap-dev] Map display squeezed horizontally

Sat Apr 20 09:11:59 BST 2013

The actual reason for this problem is, that Mapsource >=6.14 and 
Basecamp cache the map before/while you view it. Therefore it needs to 
fix the projections. Hence - the more out of the center of the map you 
move (south/north), the more distorted it will be. Moving east/west of 
course doesn't create distortion.
Mapsource 6.13.6 doesn't do this (use 6.13.6 and not 6.13.7 because of 
bugs in 6.13.7) - however doesn't have anti-aliasing and actually quite 
a few other handy features that you can use with mkgmap. Also 6.13.6 
doesn't display all extended types (many but not all of the same as 
Mapsource 6.16, basecamp, or the GPS devices).
