    Tidetech interface

    I am having  trouble when loading tidetech. I select an area, up comes the tidetech login. I can update files successfully but then when I go to download them it says I have not selected an area.
    How do I reset this link, is it an expedition problem or a tidetech problem

    I've seen this on tablets using a stylus, and haven't been able to fix it ... but then I hate stylii.  What's your device?

    i have a panasonic tough book
    Have fixed the problem with help from tidetech but now they have a new system of files. Previously each location had subset of  currents for that area. Now you are given the whole global currents so the file is much larger .
    Was confusing to start with but i guess it gives you the same information

    You should be able to select an area on the chart  to download smaller files.

    There is no gribchop capability - that I've ever discovered - in Tidetech via Expedition.  Outlining a small area off NSW produces the same filesize as the whole of the east coast, 37-something megabites.
    Downloading via PW produces the same result.
    I've vaguely thought about going via the TT website and then importing into Expedition,  but have yet to try.

    You can select an area and download just that area. It seems to have become quite slow to extract with the new system at Tidetech though.

    I stand corrected, confusion with what happens inside PW.  Right now TT is returning blank files ....
