The need for such may be obvious to you, and there's nothing wrong with the idea, but I doubt I've been asked 3 times in the past eight years for that functionality. Its just not something most people use, need, or have really shown interest in hav…

For what you want to do, you can just put in "Hyperlimit: 1234" as the display text. and leave the source blank. The custom field source is for displaying fields that are set in scripts. I thought there was a way to edit those in the program its…

Well, glad to hear the problem went away. Did something change on the system? Maybe a reboot? It sounds like perhaps something wasnt loaded right. An email to support for this isnt necessary, so long as its no longer occurring.
-
This is something you'd want to send to the support email address.
-
Well, thats not an error message coming from the program (being generated by the program). If I had to guess, I'd say something changed on the machine itself.

There is no search option for finding routes - only bodies.

There's a help file for the api in the mapper's directory (GoblinAPI.chm). Not sure if its part of the trial version, but its shipped with the full version. You'd use the SaveToGraphic() method of the Map object. I believe scripts can be run from…

You cant increase that in the program itself. It's in there to prevent allocating an image so big it crashes the video driver. I dont think the export function in the api is limited, so you might try it via a script. Or possibly, using a script…

PDF export is possible - it depends on whether the right toolkit for that can be found (it has to work with the way the word processor prints).
-
Not sure if this is mentioned in the help file, but The Keep will assign the first Image item it finds as the cover image. So you dont have to stick an image in the 'root' topic. Just place an image as the first child item under the root topic.

Most eReaders do not support tables very well, unfortunately.

I'll add it to the next build. Its just not something people have asked for in the past. There arent usually that many distinct route types on a map.
-
Have you updated to the most current build? There's a 'Generate contents - Keep names' option in the pop-up menu.
-
Are you trying to make an actual in-document table of contents? If so, I think I can automate that. It already creates the .ncx file, so the info is all there. The HTML exports used by the HTML export feature and the epub creation are actually …

The beta has been updated to improve searching speed when searching based on habitabiltiy and population. Also added is support for Natural Language Search within scripts. The api doc will be updated when the final build is released, but here's …

There's no way to do it without a script. The next update will have scripting support for the natural language search, so you'll be able to generate a list of bodies using the same type of query you'd use in the search box, and then have easy acc…

Switch to this version of SM Lite:

What version of the program are you using? Are you using this one:

Hi Erin, I've been testing it with: Adobe Digital Editions Sony Reader for PC Barnes & Noble Nook for PC Barnes & Noble Nook for Android Kobo is also another popular reader, though I havent installed it yet. Ed

Hi John, Please send an exact decription of what steps you did to the support address. I've not seen any problems wrt the log entries, but if there is one it'll be fixed. Ed

Small Bodies isnt meant to mean a specific body, but rather an indicator that there are misc small bodies (rubble, basically) in orbit. AS3 doesnt let you specify the size of the bodies to create when randomly generating a sector, but it does let…

No, I dont think there's a way to do that with an inspiration pad generator. It was a good thought, but each name is a separate 'rep' for the generator (since astro needs to pass in different coordinates to the generator for each body), so all the …

If you havent already, try that beta posted here. It almost sounds like its having trouble displaying the results file after its generated. The beta, in addition to unicode support, does something slightly different with the results file.

Support for multiple databases was simply an option added for those who had particular needs for it. During testing we had people who were using it for their work information (as in their jobs) because it was so convenient, and they didnt want to h…
