2D Map Appearance

Plot tour with: Lines / Dots / Squares

Defines the symbol for a tour track point.

Symbol width/size

Size or width for the plotted symbol.

Plot symbol with border

Draws a border with the same color but with less brightness.

Border width

Width of the border. It looks very special when the border is very wide and the symbol width is small.

Border color

• Darker
  Draws the border with a darker symbol color.
• Color
  Draws the border with the selected color.

Basic (faster)

• This method has the best performance to paint a tour but the painted tour and markers are clipped at the tile border.

Enhanced (more beautiful)

• This method paints the tour without clipping at the tile border.

• Native image data are cached to optimize performance but uses a lot of memory.

• It is recommended to add the following parameters to the command line when starting the application to prevent an out of memory error (more details are documented here).

  -vmargs -Xms128m -Xmx768m

   

• Performance is up to 5x faster on Windows compared with Linux because some image operations on Linux are 30x slower (org.eclipse.swt.graphics.Image.<init>(Device, ImageData)).
