Hi, I am testing Land 8.9 Base on Mac 10.15 to explore it a little bit before deciding to buy.

I have some GPX files in the file system, I double click them or right button and select Open With and Land 8 opens but it doesn't load the tracks. I have to open them from inside the application.

Is it a know issue?

Thanks!

  Hello,

  It's good on Window 10...  May be Land must be désignated to be the application for Gpx file in your OS?

  Hello Jose,

  i can confirm what Thierry said. On my Windows10 PC no problem with contextual menu of GPX file(openwith).

  Probably it will also be loaded with double click on the file if i would assign this file type to 8.9.

  At the moment it is still assigned to 8.8.1.

  Thanks for your comments.

  That is not my experience with 8.9 on Mac OS (I am not using Windows 10).

  I have GPX type assigned to Land. But it doesn't work neither double clicking the file nor selecting open with option. What it is true, is that Land 8.9 opens. It opens but it doesn't load the clicked or selected track.

  Hello,

  I don't know if this problem is known, have been using Land since version 5, and currently version 8.9
  Monitoring malfunctions under MAC OS is not TwoNav's strong point.

  But I have never managed to open a track with "drag and drop" or with the right click "open with Land".
  I use it to open from the Land software.

  Hi support.

  This issue continues one year later. Now using macOS 11.5 and Land 8.9.4. Is this anything you won't fix? It is very annoying from an usability point of view.

  Thanks in advance.
