[Marble-devel] Questions about marble

[Christophe Leske]

Hello,

thanks to the help of Sylvain Pareé, we got Marble compiled andworking 
on the Windows platform, including QtDesigner and QtCreator (albeit the 
later one without proper display of the widget).

I would now like to look into creating layers for it taken from the 
naturalearth project pages (see http://www.naturalearthdata.com/)

I got already a WorldWind tiling scheme set from it, but it appears as 
if Marble uses a Quadtree tiling scheme, right? So I need to reconvert 
the files...


Also, is there in Marble a way without additional coding to ...

- show multiple layers of data (several layered pngs with transparency 
in them?)
- modify the cityplacemarks database?

 From the DGML file, I can see that the cityplacemarks are supposed to 
be in a KML file, yet I can only find .cache files

(e.g. C:\Program Files\marble\data\placemarks\cityplacemarks.cache)

What is the format of these files, how can I open and modify and/or 
replace these?


Thanks for any info,
