Re: [udig-devel] integrating the map viewer as plug-in in own RCPapp

Hi Konstantin,

I only have one day to work on coding myself, so I understand your situation.

I will keep you updated on my progress.

I am not quite sure when I will be able to begin yet as I am not able to reproduce the results im getting at work with winXP at home with Ubuntu 10.4. I am not yet able to add background information shape files under Linux. The import dialog just doesnt recognise the .shp and image files from uDig data as importable. As I only have the Fridays to do the uDIg stuff it could take me a while... So please inform me on your progress and I will gladly contribute.

The Seagull Tracking (the commercial one) does not show how to link various views (map, layer, catalog, etc.) together (I double checked).  When I added a new map, it does not show up on the layer list and so forth.
