Mr. Tides X Description

Mr. Tides X - Forecasts future ocean tides Mr. Tides is a tide and current prediction program, based (loosely) on the X-Window program "XTide", but written in REALBasic, not C/C++. Mr. Tides can read the harmonics and offsets files used by XTide, so it is what XTide calls a "non-port".Mr. Tides uses a map interface to show tide and current stations all over the world (except the United Kingdom, which does not want anyone predicting their tides). By clicking on these stations the day, week, or month tides or currents can be displayed for any date between 1970 and 2037.As with all navigation software, you should not depend on this program as your sole means of navigation. The wise navigator uses all sources possible.Mr. Tides uses the tide algorithm and data derived by the U.S. Government, so the output is a prediction. It will sometimes not be accurate. Use at your own risk, and keep in mind that it may not match reality. What's New in This Release: · Updated the harmonics files to remove duplicate stations caused by importing all the old NOAA stations. They changed a lot of the station names, so there were a lot of duplicates. Unfortunately, this will affect some saved stations - they wont be found in the databases and so wont open. · Current substations compute their slack times correctly now. Before, in certain cases the slack times were out of order and caused Mr. Tides to either crash or not display any data. · Fixed a bug when the first entry in the text view was astronomical, it would show the tide events under a duplicated date after the astronomical entry. · Text view now finds the correct top three maximum and minimum events. · Printer settings for orientation and scale are now saved for the Day, Calendar, and Text views (Clock view can't be printed. If you try, it will just return to the application and not do anything). · Changing the printer settings no longer asks twice if you want to save the changes.
