API key for TSRE

[cnwfan]

Thank you for doing this! Hope we can get a down day for harvest to download the latest version!

Here is experimental version with OSM support:

http://koniec.org/TSRE5_v0.6963.exe

Only 64 bit at the moment. 32 bit later.
This version is based on a new QT build and requires some tests.

How to install? Paste this exe in existing TSRE installation and rename "695" directory to "696".
Automatic data download doesn't work in this experimental release.

New experimental and not tested features:
- elevation info for dynamic tracks and rulers
- set position Y value for group of objects
- edit position of signal shape in properties window
- more actions available from the context menu
- pick elevation for placement -> easy placement of elevated track using short segments
- new option "useTdbEmptyItems = false" may help editing broken routes?

And much more.

Now you can test this version and I'm going to one week long vacation.

Hi Goku,
Downloaded v6963 & installed no problems.

Question tho' . . . I assume that: useTdbEmptyItems = false goes into the Settings.txt file?
Is this correct?

I looked at the alter global Y axis for signal items.
Yay! Just in time as I ready to start replacing all those dead signals I've deleted over the past few days.

I'll report any glitches I find.

HI to ALL,

I aware that API topic was mentioned in previous post... but I am looking for some help in the use of API...

I got my API key and I changed the setting entering the URL... but when I am in TRSE loading the map the program shows a failure and it closes exactly when there is only 1 missing item to load the map for exmaple..

wait.. 141/142 when there is one left item to complete the load of the map the TRSE stops working and it closes

This is the URL that I am ussing:

https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api...e=400x400&key=MYKEYHERE

I tested the URL with the new york map showed in previous post with my API key and I am able to load a map of New York in any tile of my route... but when I use my URL the TRSE collapsed just with a 1 item left to complete the map...

please see the picture attached with the issue during the loading of the map

It is something related to the lat and long, and zoom???
could someone assist?

thanks

Try selecting Z17 in the Load Map dropdown?

HI, thanks for the information...

I already tried using Z17... but it happened the same with 1 item pending to be loaded the program TRSE closes...

My thinking is that the URL is not correct defined in the setting file... could someone confirm that?

I used the following URL provided by my google API Key console:

imageMapsUrl = http//maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/staticmap?center=40.714%2c%20-73.998&zoom=12&size=400x400&key=MY_API_KEY[/url]

that is not matching with the configuration of URL showed in previous post... as:

imageMapsUrl = http//maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/staticmap?center={lat},{lon}&zoom={zoom}&size={res }x{res}&maptype=satellite&key=MY_API_KEY

The specific question is... do I have to put values for lat, lon, zoom, and size??? or it should be exactly as the URL with just the names {lat} {lon}..etc just adding my API key at the end?

I also noticed that URL provided does not have the letter "s" for https... only as http.... what is the correct? with as https, or http??

I will appreciate the support on this..

Thanks.
