Question: Default Map
I have been using SetMapDisplay to try to set the map to Tiros World on startup. For the most part it seems to work but occasionally, it starts up with a blank screen. How do I make it consistently come up with the Tiros World map?
Environment
| FalconView Version: | FalconView 3.3.1 |
| Interface: | |
| Language: | C# VS 2005 |

Answer
You can either:
i) Poll FalconView by calling GetMapDisplay?(). Wait until this returns SUCCESS (0)
ii) Implement ICallback3 and wait for OnFalconViewReady?
iii) Create a FalconView favorite and use the /F command line switch to change FalconView to it upon startup
iv) Before starting up, delete the registry key that FalconView uses to store the last map before starting up (HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PFPS\FalconView\MapSpec?). FalconView will default to Tiros World.
