[Gvsig_english] FW: gvSIG mobile: image support "Could notcreatelayer"

[Mithoefer, Klaus]

Hello Juan,

 

Thanks for the tip! It works as ECW. The Jpg was too big.

 

Best regards,

 

Klaus

Hello, Klaus:

 

gvSIG Mobile supports JPG, PNG and GIF (all of them with a 6-parameter world file) and ECW. For JPG, PNG and GIF, you can only load small images (< 500,000 pixels) because these formats need a lot of physical memory which is not available in a pocket PC/smartphone. Your images are probably larger than that, so you will have to use the gdal_translate utility available from http://fwtools.maptools.org :

 

gdal_translate -of ecw image.jpg image.ecw
(the file image.wld or image.jpw must be in the same folder)

 

Regards,

Dear All,

I just try gvSIG Mobile and have problems getting an image layer loaded. I tried jpeg and img, images I used in gvSIG desktop. The Jpeg is correctly imported to my pocket pc, I can open it in a picture viewer. But in gvSIG mobile I get the message "Could not create layer". Does anybody have a solution for that?

Thanks and best regards,

Klaus
