2011-02-21 05:47:04 - RNL: no labels on intended course corners
when I try to assess a delayed course, the labels are blank, which means I can't enter course or make a clear assessment of delay time.

when I put the mouse on the map, the labels on longitude and lattitude are blank.
when I try to assess a future course, the labels at the corners are blank.
result I can't enter a future course on DC or make a good assessment on time delay.

I have hovered my mouse on the game screen and then adjusted the wx slider forward and returned to the game screen and I see lon/lat labels at the various levels of zoom I used.

I am not a tech SOLgod but I would suggest the following:

1. clear your browser cache completely

2. run a cleaning program to get rid of unnecessary registry/temp files that the browser didn't get.

3. reboot your computer

4. right click on the SOL game screen and follow what pops up - this will notify you if you do not have the latest version of Flash installed.

Let me know how you get on!

Thanks chaser of rainbows
I think the issue may be that I use a Macbook pro, which has a touchpad with gestures sensitivity; hence no right click, no hovering, etc
and
I don't know what the wx slider is.
I have cleared the cache and restarted yesterday, without improvement.
will update to latest Flash.

The wx slider is the weather slider.. ie the little triangle at the LH side of the line between the game on-screen dashboard (showing Speed, Course etc) and the Weather Report date/time.

If you click and hold (Mac equiv) on this triangle, you can slide it all the way along the line to the RH side - this shows you developing weather.

:-)

Look forward to learning how you get on with the Flash issue. I seem to remember reading in chat that Mac's need a specific form of Flash?

Smo - a SOLer from Finland uses a Mac (there must be others) so maybe if you see him in chat and you still have problems you can check settings with him?

Otherwise shout out again here and I will get one of the techie 'Gods to come and help!!

OK, sorted
flash installed, all working labels, chat is standard now.
mac had a block on the adobe products, which was lifted some time ago; now proper flash installed all working.
by the way i did know the weatherslide, just not the abbreviation for it.
thank you, because I didn't set a proper DC i ended up close to the S-island.
Just noticed your dc didn't work either your still going on the same course!!
cheers Maarten

Shetland Race 2026 - Leg 2


After the thrill of the first leg, we don't linger long in Lerwick, Shetland. Following brief but joyous celebrations, it's time to set sail back across the North Sea to Bergen, Norway, for the gripping second leg of the Shetland Race 2026!

Covering another unpredictable 190 nautical miles, tactical depth and fierce competition await. This year, we take the helm of the Linjett 33. Designed by Mats Gustavsson in 1994 for Sweden's historic Rosättra Båtvarv, this sturdy, quality cruiser-racer has been a Sailonline favourite in northern waters since 2010. Whether you are chasing victory or savoring the voyage, hoist your sails and let the journey home begin!

Brisbane to Keppel Tropical Yacht Race 2026


When the winter weather turns cool in southern Australia, sailors head up to the warmer tropics. Sailors from all over the world make their way to The Great Barrier Reef for the big winter regattas at Hamilton Island, Airlie Beach and Magnetic Island.
This year's B2K will start on 20 June to offer an event suited to a broader range of boats. Sailonline is, once again, joining with the racers from RQYS to race the 343 nautical miles from Brisbane to Keppel Island, this time in our First 44.7. It might be winter down under, but all you will need is shorts and t-shirts.

Newport Bermuda Race 2026


The 636-mile Newport Bermuda Race is one of the oldest regularly scheduled ocean races, and with the Fastnet and the Sydney Hobart Race, it is one of the three great classic races of the yachting world. First raced in 1906, now in its 54th biennial, the Race can again also be participated in online. In real life, the race is open to entry in four different division – Double-Handed, St. David's Lighthouse, Gibbs Hill Lighthouse, and Finisterre Division – which in the past we have also offered online. This year, however, our online race will be all-in one-design in silky swift Club Swan 50 yachts, so that your results can count towards SOL’s SUPerBUDdy title, whilst hopefully still giving you a chance of overall line honours against the fastest yachts of the real-life Gibbs Hill Division, especially if you can find some forecast winds that don’t quite work out that way on the real water!
