make sure you're clicking the preview 1x button, not the preview tab

I can't seem to get a 1x zoom level. I don't get the names of all the side streets on screen.

I'm in Melbourne Australia and I'm trying to make a map of the whole city. Before hitting the final download button on GMDL, it claims up at the top-left of the window that the download will be ~3.5GB, but ends up being only 13MB. Is GMDL abandoning the 1x level due to the potential file size? Should I use something other than Google Maps to get that extra zoom?

Ok, I think I worked it out. I'm now using gmdl0.5.13a whereas I was using gmdl0.5.12b before. I'm not sure if that's the reason it's working now due to a variation in my approach. I zoomed out one extra notch and de-selected more of the surrounding areas. I'm still in the process of downloading the results, but it looks like it will end up being 1.7gb in size. Certainly, this will have more detail than my 13mb map!
