To fix the problem, I have to reproduce here. Can you send me test data ?

lat/lon destination:
Up to isochrone:
#of branches:
max angle:
boat wake:
isochrone interval:
auto prune [x]
add branches at isochrone [ ]

I have tried 1 - 2 and 3 with the same results.

The screen freezes

Really don't know if clever, but working for me with default parameters.
It happened I waited 4/5' for 1 or 2 isochrone in the middle (between 18 and 24) but quite fast for the others (some tens of seconds).
Good work

Work fine on Laptop with windows Vista and on Desktop with Windows XP but not with Windows Vista on the Desktop.

Omar, in my computer (WIndows XP), when I tried to use it, the VRTool crashes. I can't see any error window, nothing. The VRTool window desapear.

Omar, no meu computador (XP), quando tento usar a previsão de rotas, a janela simplesmente desaparece, não fica nenhuma aviso de erro. Some. Impossível usar.

Ok. Thanks for the bug report. I have detected the problem here too.
Stack overflow. Invalid access.. machines with less memory
seem to suffer more. I'll put my debugging team on this 24x7

In the mean time, remember to save the desktop before WR_ting...

Hi,
Congratulations for your tool, none crash for me (with track tree and isochrone 156 / 6 tree branches), but very very long time , vrtool process never take over 25% cpu and only 150/200 ram, can we override it ? (tracks with no limit option and grid computing, welcome )
