Map rendering issues.

 

HI Andrew

As you know, I have been using yaac for some time now with no issues.? I had to reinstall yaac from scratch on my raspberry pi and when I downloaded the map tiles from pre-imported tiles, I get a white area of the map not rendering properly.? My tile version matches the server tile version 20200906 ID 90496127.? ?I have deleted all files in the tile directory and redownloaded the tiles but I can't seem to get rid of the issue.? Interestingly, I also have loaded yaac on my windows 10 machine and that map loads perfectly.? ?The map versions are the same.? I have attached a screenshot of the problem map.? Thanks in advance.

Re: Java error on zooming out

 

Are you still having this problem? You might want to try upgrading and re-downloading the maps to ensure they are compatible versions.


Re: BEACON only on RF

 

Yes, you can do this.

What you have to do is have two different beacons (the default one, and another one), and associate one with the RF port and the other with the APRS-IS port. Then disable (not delete) the beacon for the APRS-IS port.

This should do what you want, although it will guarantee that m/ filters on your APRS-IS connection won't work (since your associated server won't know your position).

Would like to send Beacon only on RF port, and not beacon directly on APRS.IS.

But need APRS.IS to be open for IGATE used because it is a DIGI/IGATE.

Is there a way, because all my beacon are gate directly on T2 server, would like to see some IGATE or DIGI in my patch from where I'm received.

Re: how to change language from German back to English

 

Thanks for all the info. So for the mnemonics it is good practice to use the first letters of the keywords that lead you to a certain menu item (unless this would lead to an ambiguity with another menu item).
I'll come back in case another question comes up :).


Re: how to change language from German back to English

 

Oops. I missed two other localization filesets in core YAAC:

YAAC/src/main/resources/org/ka2ddo/aprs/SymbolText*.properties
YAAC/src/main/resources/org/ka2ddo/opentrac/OpenTracSymbolsPaths*.properties

The former is the localized names of the APRS symbol codes; the latter is the same for OpenTRAC symbol codes.

I don't think we need to worry about YAAC/src/main/resources/org/ka2ddo/aprs/MicEModels.properties, as those are mostly manufacturer names, not ordinary words.

Andrew,
thanks for pointing out the location of the *.properties files :).
I just downloaded YAACsrc_20201013.zip and found the YAAC_de.properties file. Wow, that's 2000+ lines of terms! In a first step I will concentrate on the main GUI items. The amount of "amenities" in that file seems endless. Most translations there seem to be accurate or at least understable (I found no "frying pan" so far ;) )
I think the best way is to load the YAAC.properties and YAAC_de.properties side by side in an Editor/diff-tool, so that I can get the context. From what I see using "Umlaute" (the letters ??ü ???) in that file seems to be no problem.

One question about that Code snipped:
menu.File.Configure.ExpertMode=Expertenmodus
menu.File.Configure.ExpertMode.mnemonics=AKE

It seems the *memonics=AKE defines the letter "E" of the word "Expertenmodus" as the letter to be used if you use the keys alt+e to select (instead of a mouse click).
I also find "mnemonics=AOH" or similar. Is there a short explanation of the syntax? What das AO*,AK*,AT* mean? I have zero JAVA programming experience…


Re: how to change language from German back to English

Thank you so much!

Yes, it's a lengthy file, because there are an enormous amount of GUI controls and labels in YAAC. The AmenityType.* items you pointed out are descriptive types of Node and Way records found in OpenStreetMap, such as store=greengrocer (in OSM) mapping to the AmenityType.greengrocer enumeration value (and Java enum value names can't have whitespaces or punctuation marks in them). Those at least I could check against my pocket English-Deutsch translation dictionaries to cross-check Google's assumptions. Longer sentences are harder to validate when they are using words outside my limited German vocabulary.

The menu.*.mnemonics tags are for highlighting the hot keys used to keyboard-navigate the YAAC menu bar, as in keyboard driving on older versions of Microsoft Windows applications that still could be used without a mouse. For what you quoted below (in English), the mnemonic is FFE, which means File->Configure->Expert Mode (note the underscored letters, as they are underscored in the drop-down menus), so you could get there by typing Alt-F F E instead of having to click with a mouse. As such, the German equivalent with the words I got in translation are Ablegen->Konfigurieren->Expertenmodus; I hope I picked appropriate unique letters for the German translations of the menu entries (they only have to be unique at their level of the menu tree, so for example C works both for Close on the File menu and for Chat on the Message menu). Note that all entries on submenus have to be consistent on their choice of letter for the parent menus (i.e., all things on the File menu have mnemonics starting with F in the default English properties). Of course, it would have helped if I'd picked the correct words first. ?Perhaps I should have installed my old MSDN copy of the German version of Windows NT 4.0 to see these things. ?

Also note that some translations have embedded HTML tags so a <br> line-wrap can be inserted into an extremely long piece of text for a Java Swing JLabel or JButton. The HTML that the Swing renderer understands is very limited, so I don't use it for any more than line-breaking.

Make sure whatever text editor you use saves files in UTF-8 format; I went to a lot of trouble to support UTF-8 for Sergei when he did the Russian translation, because there are no Cyrillic characters whatsoever in the ISO-8859-1 character set. Any character not in 7-bit US ASCII will be screwed up if you don't save in UTF-8 encoding.

Thank you again for offering to assist on this.

Re: how to change language from German back to English

 

I would be overjoyed if any native speakers of German could fix my lousy grammar in YAAC. Alas, it's been 40 years since I actually studied German (as a foreign language) as a student, and 30 years since I had any opportunity to use it conversationally, so I'm not very good at it.

The single file of all German translations does exist in YAAC. In the source-code distribution, you will find in the YAAC/src/main/resources/org/ka2ddo/yaac directory a file named YAAC.properties, which contains tags to all the UI elements in YAAC and their corresponding English text (I point this out so you can see what context in the UI code each tag is used for). The file YAAC_de.properties contains the same tags and the equivalent German text (or was supposed to :-( ). YAAC_ru.properties was created several years ago by a Russian-speaking volunteer, but I haven't been able to keep it up to date since then, so it's missing several hundred more recent tags, which therefore fall back to the default English translations. There are similar .properties files for each of the plugins for additional text that didn't already exist in the YAAC.properties file and its localized copies. For those who are Java language programmers, YAAC uses the Java runtime's PropertyResourceBundle class (with a custom Control subclass to use UTF-8 character set properties files instead of the very limiting ISO-8859-1 properties files that Java supports by default), and the MessageFormat class for substituting variable text at the correct places in localized sentences.

I haven't yet figured out how to invoke localized copies of the help files, so translating them is of lower priority than fixing the actual UI (since it would help to have correctly-localized UI screens to snapshot for the help).

Thank you for even considering helping with this.

Re: how to change language from German back to English

 

Hello I am new to this board - I hope you don't mind if reply to this "old" topic.
I'd like to thank Andrew for his work & dedication on this project. It seems to me that YAAC is the only non-outdated standalone APRS today…

As already mentioned, YAAC switches to German when running on a localized operating system (Ubuntu 20.04 and Raspian Buster in my case). In a number of cases the (automated) translation does not work out.
Example: "pan to local station position" on the Map screen. Google translated "to pan" not as a verb, but as a noun. Result: the word "pan" was translated as "frying pan"…

How can I contribute there?
In the Zip-file I downloaded from sourceforge I could not find any source files containing language information…

I think in a first step it makes sense not to post every single mistranslated term in this forum here - there are many. It would be nice if I could edit a file containing all German language terms. The updated file could then simply be merged without much effort.

Re: Winlink sending email problem

Don Poaps
 

For your?info. I've used Windows APRIS32, my Aprsdroid Pad. using message This format should work with any Aprs program like YAAC.


APRSLink

APRSLink is a CMS-Hosted gateway providing a link between the Automatic Packet Reporting System (APRS) and the Winlink global radio email system. APRSLink monitors all APRS traffic gated to the internet, worldwide, and watches for special commands that allow APRS users to:

  • read short email messages sent to their?callsign@...?account (only the base callsign, no SSID)
  • send short email messages to any valid email address or Winlink 2000 user
  • perform email related maintenance (see commands below)
  • be notified of pending Winlink email via APRS message
  • query APRSLink for information of the closest Winlink RMS packet station

APRSLink provides a very special capability for the Kenwood TH-D7, TM-D700 and TM-D710 Radios for sending and receiving email from the radio front Panel without any need for a PC.

Properly licensed Amateur Radio operators are automatically registered in the Winlink system the first time they send a message through the system. For someone to send email to you, you must first become registered by sending a message through the system. Your Winlink account cannot be established using APRSLink -- you must first create your Winlink email account before you can use APRSLink. See??for more information. Additionally, your APRS station must have sent at least one APRS position report (beacon) prior to attempting to access this service. In that way, APRSLink can know your Amateur callsign, location, and station type for use with some commands.

LOGIN -
Send any characters to initiate login. The CMS will respond with a challenge consisting of three digits who's values represent positions of characters within your password. See 'RESP'.

RESP -
This is a six character response to the login challenge. Respond with three password characters corresponding to the positions in the challenge plus three additional characters of your choosing (in any order). Example: Password is AbC123. Login challenge is: 425. You send '1b2Qz5'. AbZ21t would also be valid since it contains the characters 1, b, and 2 which correspond to the 4th, 2nd, and 5th character in your password.

123456

AbC123

I use this format to figure out what number or letter I send 1b2xuq because these represent the password in the 1 to six numbers


LOGOFF -
Your login will expire after approximately two hours. You can manually log out anytime by issuing the "B" or "BYE" command.
