Loading mapping driver on to your computer - Windows

 

The first time you use CGC you have to load the Adobe SVGTM Map Driver on to your PC/laptop. This will enable you to view the maps and find campsites etc through the map scroll and zoom functions. To load SVG, simply click Load Mapping Driver on the start page. 

Any subsequent time you use CGC on the same computer, skip this step and go straight to Start CampGroundCorner. For CampGroundCorner, the Adobe SVG driver is suitable for use on Windows 2000, XP and Vista.

Note: Users of SVG enabled browsers such as FireFox will not need to load the SVG driver.

 

 

 

Loading mapping driver on to your computer – Apple Macintosh

 

To obtain the driver google “Adobe+SVG”. Select “Adobe-SVG-Manual Download”, and then the appropriate driver on the dropdown list. Double click the download to install. It will be necessary to restart the browser. Adobe SVG for Mac OS 10.4.1 works both for the Mac default browser Safari and for Firefox under Mac OS 10.5.8. There are slight differences in functionality between the two browsers. The plug-in is called SVGViewCarbon in Mac-speak.

Alternatively CGC can be used using the FireFox browser which is SVG enabled.

 

 

 

 

Browser settings

 

Once installed you are ready to use the maps. Some Internet Explorer settings can cause you to have to click a message every time you load a page.

There are a few settings you can select to improve the performance of CGC on your computer - go to Browser settings.

 

 

 

Introduction to CGC maps

 

A click on Start CampGroundCorner on the start page will take you to the CGC maps. Key features are:

  • 5 levels of map zoom detail;
  • map navigation within and between levels;
  • “mouse over” information – i.e. when you hover the cursor on an area or feature, the name of the feature under the cursor appears in the green bar above the map.

 

 

 

Moving around the maps

 

Simply move the cursor to the area of interest. In IE location is aided by a pink box which follows the cursor. Click the mouse to zoom to the next level of detail. Use the pink triangular pointers at the edges of the scene to navigate to an adjacent area. Hit the green Zoom Out button below left of the scene to move back to a more general view. For more advanced zooming in IE, use Ctrl+Click to zoom in; Ctrl+Shift+Click to zoom out; and Alt+Click to move.
