I'm not even sure if LM4 can still import 1000s of tracks, I remember there was a crash issue.

@Menion, just tested. Import GPX to database folder. Select 850 files, click ok bottom right: Crash LM4 + auto restart LM4.

EDIT: Zipping them and pointing Locus to that zip file is a workaround.

Hi Andrew, I can't change it, it's specific and due to the way the mappers have drawn the bridge plus my offset.

The equivalent of my striped line in Johns theme is the semi transparent white line on the center of the bridge.

If we center the line you won't see a problem. But adding an offset you can see, there is a short part appearing in the south. While in the north there is a longer line, over the whole bridge.

Maybe DIY on Windows with SQlite is the way... Maybe https://docs.locusmap.app/de/doku.php?id=manual:advanced:map_tools:corrupted_sqlite helps.

So in your experience, does pruning never happen? I could of course export to gpx and rebuild it, IMO without any information loss, but that's some work.

IIRC Menion wrote db prune is up to Android, or Android does pruning at some point...

Can I force to purge the tracks.db?I deleted ~4000 tracks, but the db size still is the same 400 mb as before. Or, when will it happen?

v1.3.8

• Visibility cycling route captions
• Dependency markers in menu
• Visibility industrial area captions
• Industrial area captions part of suburb name display
• Fine tuned hiking/cycling relation offsets

"Dependency markers": without the above parent option checked, the child option will not display.

@Andrew, Re: Hobart bridge.

The cycleway is painted at the right place. But there's 3 relations (togglable in my theme via "Cycling network"). One on bridge center, one on both cycleways.

Problem: I display them with an offset, because in the theme hiking relations are on one side, cycling in other side of roads. I want to keep this system. In case of this bridge it gets a bit messy.

Screenshots, without relations, with offset, without offset.

This can only be solved by centering the relations, but then displaying hiking + cycling at the same time is difficult. Need to think about it.

EDIT: Nah, it should be OK. Offset only a thing in high zooms. I have tamed them. Please try latest release. I like it now.

Btw, it was a full line by accident. Now it's striped (rcn|lcn|ocn), full=icn/ncn

I hope it's immediately clear what this is about.
You cannot view this attachment.

No release yet, but changes in https://raw.githubusercontent.com/TapioOfTapiola/oam_theme_tapiola/main/Tapiola.xml

I also don't like the fact that the lack of radio buttons for either/or choices means you have to rely on the user to turn off one option and turn on another.

Sigh. Oh yes, that would be a revolution and much needed, if in the xml we had possibilities like

!cat="category1"

or

cat="cat1|cat2*"

I miss the orange paths shown on the screenshots.

Those are SAC1 and I remember now, I used a super thin line there, you see it in your screenshot. Reason: SAC1 is unfortunately used by mappers  in flat, even urban areas at times. There the underlying path is of higher interest.

@Saturo, Tapiola and FzOAM both use that german coding, I just mix colors to have a code for all 5 levels.

Tapiola: t1=blue (not used), t2=blue/red, t3=red, t4=red/black, t5=black

Fz: t1+t2=blue, t3=red, t4/t5 didn't look.

I think it's OK the way I do it. Why do you think it's not?

Would it be possible to set the colors like the FzOAM Theme does?

I will have a look.

There's some kind of green tint on the second screenshot, protected areas turned on? Looks like that semi-transparent layer should be painted below roads etc.

Can you give me a position, would also like to look. Just to be safe: you're aware there's tag transform documentation on the OAM homepage?

Hi, in the Locus news I have seen there's a fancy startup animation. Not here. Is the startup supposed to look like mine?

v1.3.7

• Improvements in visibility of hiking/cycling relations in lowest zooms
• Improvement in visibility primary..tertiary roads
• Fixed a bug where borders of major roads were overpainted by minor paths asphalt layer. Resulting in reduced visibility because their black border wasn't visible.

The last one is a bit dangerous, I changed paint order for a bigger block, but lack overview on my smartphone. Need to look at the bigger code image on my computer at some point. All those tons of road/path code layers are hard to deal with on a small screen.
Still haven't touched the Andrew issue. 😩
