All posts - Manifold Future Import Error
|
I have a ~3gb tiff that I would like to view in Manifold Future. It imports/displays correctly in GlobalMapper/QGIS/ArcGIS/MapInfo. I have attached a screen capture of the log window contents after trying to import. v9.0.163.2. Thanks! Attachments: tif_import.JPG

That's the ticket, thanks! I should have Googled.

In principle there is nothing wrong with letting GDAL deal with GDAL quirks. That's one reason why Manifold has a GDAL dataport. But it seems a shame to have to wait for a 3GB import through GDAL. I've filed a suggestion that the TIF dataport should digest all TIFs possible and write any unknown tags as metadata into the Properties of the image. The dataport would then read the TIF without using GDAL and anybody who wanted could deal with any private tags however they like.

That sounds ideal, thank you.

This "fix" seems to have made it into 163.3 but is not present in 163.4; is that possible? I was able to import TIFs with unknown fields yesterday, but can no longer (fails with the same error as above) today when using 163.4. Attached a screen capture. Attachments: tif_import_error.PNG

We will take a look. This might be a regression from adding more code in the relevant area. Could you post a smaller test file that behaves like that, just in case? Or upload the original. That would be helpful.
