Yet another bearing overlay tool

Reece,

Just a small error......

Just be aware if you cut & paste the file names in the readme file, ensure you don't use the .tga part of the file name as below;
NSS_Uboat21_shp.tga

If you cut & paste the full file path as above it will not replace the file but make a second file in each of the folders.

This is what it should look like if you are going to use this method;
NSS_Uboat21_shp

It's not a big issue Reece, but I thought I would just let members know. Other wise this is a outstanding addition to the nav compartment of the game.

Ahh, a boo boo, should be copy & paste:

Doesn't seem to matter how many times you read these things you still end up with errors, although I'm not sure if this is what you mean Venatore?
If I highlight "NSS_Uboat21_shp.tga" from the readme - copy it (^C) then highlight the file "NSS_Uboat_shp.tga", paste over the file (^V) the result would be a file named "NSS_Uboat21_shp.tga", this is correct.

Crossed wires I think.

Yep your totally correct in what your saying Reece, I needed to be more detailed in my post, I made copies and cut and pasted the file name onto the new file, then dragged it across to wait for the pop up do you want to over write the file etc etc. SO if members use that method. I hate it when you write your thoughts but it still doesn't come out the way you wanted it to

Nothing to worry about Venatore! I'm always making blunders & often what I say isn't what I mean! ...... Where only Human, although when I look in the mirror I often wonder!:rotfl:

Hey Reece, i'm going to down load this and try it out. Half the fun of SH3 for me is the art of plotting. So thanks.

Looks great Reese.

One question... Does this correct the heading offset when traveling east? The other dial with ranges was off by a few degrees. Not a big deal I know but it just didn't look right and tended to throw you a curveball when viewing it... if you see what I mean.

Anyways, this is now a nice uncluttered dial.
