Flags and SVG/PNG

Post by jbennett »

First, thanks for developing such a great program. Keep up the good work!

Just a couple of thoughts for future updates:

1. Would it be possible to add flags for the City/Island detail section. For example Bonaire: the country is the Netherlands Antilles, and the Island is Bonaire, each of which have their own flags. Another example would be the Island of Peleliu in Palau.

2. The "download flags" button takes you to Wikimedia Commons. Many of the flags there are in the SVG format, which Diving Log does not seem to recognize. Am I missing something in Windows XP, or is this related to Dive Log?

Thanks,

John Bennett

Hi John

Thank you! I can add a flag field to the City/Island details, too. The SVG format is currently not supported by the development system, maybe it is possible in .NET, but you can also convert it for example with IrfanView to JPG. Or you use this website where the flags are in gif format.

Kind regards,
Sven

Sven,

Thank you for your reply. I have downloaded IrfanView and it works fine. I will look forward to your next update.

Best Regards,

John
