DESCRIPTION

Meander (formerly known as Metro) is a Mac application that plots points, plans routes and measures distances using any map, including maps you've scanned or those you've found on the web. Save your routes for later. Export or print and share them with others.

Meander includes these key features:

  • Plot Anything: Plot on top of any map - be it from software, a website, or scanned.
  • Plot Routes, Measure Distances: Plot routes and then manipulate them - move points around to plan the best route. Meander tells you length of your route in real-time.
  • Save/Load/Export/Print Routes: Plan routes and save them for later, or print and share them with others. Export to JPEG or print as a PDF.

SANDY_J  Excellent product. Just what I've been looking for - I'm a regular walk leader and I frequently need to estimate distances for walks. No more fiddling with dividers or bits of string - Meander is just the job, and really easy and intuitive to use.   (Version 1.5)

JLARO  I've already rated this excellent application, so I won't this time. It's becoming excellent.

My only major gripe at this point is that the Save dialog should be standard, i.e. allow me to save anywhere I want. I don't like to save documents in my Library, especially that I often use the Shared user's folder.

Other minor points:

1- personal presets for the trace should be savable

2- presets should include the tracing window as well (in the same preset combo than the line)

3- when selecting a preset please keep the Preferences window on top.  (Version 0.4)

JLARO  Very clever, very well executed, brilliant.

Suggestions for improvements:

- Add a menu item to show the Scale window if it's been closed.

- Remember the last scale unit used.

- Let the user select the width and color of the trace, it's sometimes hard to see.

- Allow deletion of the last segment

- Allow a totally transparent Tracing window for taking better screenshots.  (Version 0.2)
