[ka-Map-users] odd behavior

Jeff,

I'm assuming that since you were able to produce screenshots with the debug on and off 
that you deleted all the files in the cache between each and so this isn't an issue 
where the tiles got broken in the cache.

This is a strange problem because if some of the tiles are rendering then ka-Map is 
working.  I've seen a problem like this with some data sets on my machine but have never 
debugged it because the same datasets on another machine work just fine.  Can you try 
with a different set of data, or perhaps remove some of the scales so that you start 
zoomed in further?  Also, if you zoom in, what happens?

Cheers

Paul

The first image is when I first start the application and scroll so that the rendered 
tiles are in the screen.   The next one shows what it looks like as a few more tiles 
appear, and then I scrolled away and let more tiles render  and as you can see none of 
them have any mapping in them.. they are just white.
