Menion;
   That sounds good to me; I'd love to help. Be aware that I am ignorant with coding issues so you will have to send me simple file formats. What I want to do is just improve the infrequent grammatical errors that are occasionaly confusing.
   What about the Knowledge Base info also? I think it is a critical feature of Locus since the app itself is quite complex and I suspect most users have to turn to it more than a few times. The better the reference base you have the fewer questions you will have to answer.

I understand what a pain minor corrections would be. I definitely don´t want to create more work for you as you obviously already spend a huge amount of time improving Locus and communicating with users.

Could I be of use if you were to send me pages to correct before you submit them to more permanent references such as a wiki or KB? I could do a quick survey of the text, return it to you and then you could do with it what you want. I am thinkiing of not only grammer issues (by the way your English is very good) but also of ways to present material to novices, like me, that you might not notice since you are so familiar with Locus.

Don´t worry if you don´t see a place for me at this time. I am willing to help but I won´t feel hurt if I don´t. I am just glad to have found Locus as it is truly impressive and getting better by the day.

I see this thread has kind of trailed off.
Are you still in need of english translation?

Troubles & Questions / Re: temporary path

Thanks for the reply  tommi62! By the way your tutorials are excellent!
Yes I see the need now to put routes/tracks in catagories.
But I am still ending up with tracks on the map where there is no corresponding info in Data. An example is if I Add a New Route > place waypoints > ¨working¨ > Compute route > Cycle > Guide on > get navigation screen. But then I want to start over so how can I clean lines/points off the map? Sometimes I get a tool box (how?) on the left side of the map that allows point removal but only one at a time.

Troubles & Questions / temporary path Solved

I am going around in circles on this one.
I attempt to create a track/route by placing waypoints with ¨Add new route¨ on map (MapQuest live). I then >  Compute > add category > press checkmark and get only a point to point ¨Temporary Path¨. I have no idea on how to use that path, how to make it an on-road route nor how to delete it (can delete in Data/Tracks but lines and points stay on map.
Thanks in advance.
