Loading Multiple .GMW files into one session with recurse

gpsmpr

I would like to load multiple workspace .gmw files into one workspace. I was hoping I could use the same functionality that is present when loading files into a map catalog (recursing through subfolders for *.gmw)

Is there any way to do this?

I am using GM v12.02 . . .UPDATE . . . I just noticed you can do this in GM v14. Except it asks you 'would you like to unload all loaded data' each time it tries to open a new .gmw. Can you add a 'always use this' check box?

Thanks

I have updated Global Mapper so if you load multiple .gmw files at once, if you select to skip the unload all for one of them, all remaining .gmw files in the load will also skip that automatically. I have placed a new build at http://www.bluemarblegeo.com/downloads/global-mapper/global_mapper14.zip with the latest changes for you to try. Simply download that file and extract the contents into your existing v14.xx installation folder to give it a try. If you are using the 64-bit v14 version there is a new build at http://www.bluemarblegeo.com/downloads/global-mapper/global_mapper14_64bit.zip .

Thank you! I'll try it out!

Error: 'The program can't start because lti_dsdk_8.5.dll is missing . . .'

It's not a full installer, just some updated files. You need to extract the contents of the .zip over your existing installation in C:\Program Files (folder will vary depending on 32-bit vs. 64-bit), then run with the normal shortcut.

Sorry, I have now copied over the new build, but it doesn't seem to work.

It still asks 'Would you like to unload all loaded data . . .' 'Yes, No, Cancel' each time it loads a new .gmw

A restart didn't work on one machine, but I'll try a restart on this machine and a re-copy of the build.

Still can't get it to work, any ideas?

How are you loading the .gmw files? Are you using File->Open Data File and selecting a bunch at one time?

No, I am using the 'File' -> 'Open all files in a Directory Tree', then recursing through subfolders automatically to look for all *.gmw

Ah yes I've tried it and found the issue and got it working. I have placed a new build at http://www.bluemarblegeo.com/downloads/global-mapper/global_mapper14.zip with the latest changes for you to try. Simply download that file and extract the contents into your existing v14.xx installation folder to give it a try.
