I would find it better if Mr Tides remembered the last few sites opened, without the need to save the site somewhere. This would be a small but useful refinement.

Finding Mr Tides really useful. I note when making the shareware payment, I cannot paste my password into the PayPal password field. As my password is long and complex (for security) it was a bit of a pain to have to type it character at a time.

thanks.]]>

A request... please can we have a short-cut to get back to 'today'? I explore ahead but then want to get back to now.

iCal etc. has a 'today' button, and I would find an equivalent in Mr Tides useful.

thanks for your good work

The GM version can be found at http://www.mrtides.com/alpha.html (it's not alpha, of course, but it's easier to leave that as-is for now).

I'm targeting Leopard (10.5) as the minimum OS version, although it would be nice to target Snow Leopard instead. There's a lot of good stuff in 10.6 that I can use, so this might change between now and release.

I like the simplicity and clarity of the interface. However I do have a couple of questions about its use.
1, How do I get Mr Tides to display Tidal Stream Information? I cannot get Mr Tides to display Tidal Stream info' for the UK.

2, How can I get more "Map" information it would be useful to be able to zoom in on the local area rather than having the whole of the UK on screen?

3, Anchor Aid and calculations therein?
It seems to me that Anchor Aid could be a useful facility, however it does seem to lack some functionality. Is it possible to change some of the values used in the "Anchor Aid" facility?
In particular I would like to be able to change the Ratio of anchor rode (it is set to 3:1 for chain) I would also like to change the (or be informed of) the "clearance" under the keel at Low Water? I see this as being a variable dependent upon Size of vessel, nature of the sea bed, weather,
streams etc'.

It is possible that these features are already there it is just that I cannot find them.
Any and all help really Appreciated,

Both are located in the middle of the coastline of the Bay of Biscay which is almost a blank zone on the map.

Cap Ferret is the tip of the cape outside the the Arcachon Bay. Inside the Arcachon Bay -- "Bassin d'Arcachon" -- there is the city of Arcachon where the tide is delayed compared to Cap Ferret because of the smallness of the entry way for the waters (the infamous "passes du Bassin d'Arcachon" that killed many a sailor).

You can find the data here (multilingual website) :

Cap-Ferret
http://maree.frbateaux.net/135?g=4

Arcachon
http://maree.frbateaux.net/136

Their data are taken from the official SHOM French government site:

http://www.shom.fr/ann_marees/cgi-bin/pr...=0&zone=11

The frbateaux.net people have developed a widget but not one as accurate and precise as your software (good for surfers and swimmers, less for sailors as it does not mention water heights, essential when you want to enter or exit the "passes")

Thanks in advance for what you can do in that respect,
