New Map Feature

[timg]

If you check the Browse Map you may have noticed a new "Course Listing" header at the bottom of it. If you expand that window you will get a listing of the courses that are visible on the map in order of distance from the point you clicked. This way you can get an overview of the courses in the area (similar to just doing a course browse) but clicking a course name in the list will have that course pop-up on the map.

If you have trouble with it, make sure to try a ctrl-f5 to reload old cached files. If you continue to have problems feel free to post here and I'll try to fix it. I tested in IE8 and FF without any issues.

That's great. It will definitley be easier than clicking on the course and having the course pop up on a balloon. Nice addition!

The map browser does not seem to be working for me (in IE8 or Chrome). When I double click on the map, it just zooms in to where I click rather than giving the + mark and loading courses. No courses are loading. I do not feel like rebooting, co is anyone else having this same issue?

And, I can not find a "Course Listing" header anywhere despite doing the ctrl-F5 a few times.

Try it now.. I accidentally had it marked as premium only.

Lol, I was wondering the same thing. I went and cleared my cache in the tools menu and thought I had fixed it.

[Dave242]

Works now. Nice. Thanks for the great additional feature!

and it is an x, not a +

[Dave242]

Not to be ungrateful, but it would be really cool to have the course list sortable by distance from the X and by rating.

I love the ability to click on the list and the bubble pops up on the map, but the sorting thing would be really handy in areas where there are tons of courses.

It would be kind of a big pain to implement sorting on that list. If I'm feeling ambitious.. or rather feel like tackling a boring task, I'll give it a shot

For now, you could just use the filters up top to narrow down the ratings that you want to see.

MY NEXT ROAD TRIP!

Using this slick new map feature, I found thirty (30) courses located within a 20 mile radius from Buffalo Grove, Illinois. Is there anywhere in the country with more courses in a concentrated area? Maybe Minneapolis?

To answer my own question, I found thirty-one (31) located with 20 miles from Minneapolis. There is no excuse for you folks in Minnesota, Wisconsin and Illinois not to have played hundreds of courses.

Well, maybe I'll accept two feet of snow, seven months of winter and sub-Artic temperatures.
