The new beta shows a (possibly intermittent but quite reproducible) rendering fault with dashed or dotted lines on vector map themes each time it is started. On opening the app, dashed lines have far too small spacing. Zooming in and out corrects the behaviour. The two screenshots show the effect. Note the pylon lines, though the same effect happens with any dotted or dashed line. I don't get the same effect with the non-beta version of the app.

If not three position switch, then how about check box for "include" and two position switch for the setting (greyed out if box not checked).
As for downloading from OAM, what you have done looks like a good idea but I have never succeeded in downloading from OAM direct to Locus -- for me, the download always breaks.

Point detail > Map apps > Streetview is not working at present. It goes to current position on Google maps and notifies Streetview is not available here.
If I choose Google maps from Locus point detail instead and drop a pin, Streetview works.
I guess Google has changed something.

Nice to have map themes now included.

For me, it would be nicer to have map styles as well as themes included.

Because each preset can have own independent set of settings I imagine could cause user confusion. Seems user will generally need to have settings identical in each preset (for example I am testing with 3 presets Cycling/ Driving/ Default). There is not going to be large number of settings to choose from so could the initial choosing of set of settings be removed - each preset just has all possible settings? User simply decides on the value of each setting.

That change would need a three-position switch (on | off | no change) for each setting which is what the present arrangement achieves.

I've adjusted the styles for the theme so that Cycle, Hiking, City and Road styles function almost as presets with a limited range of tailored options, while Multi and Yellow have a fuller (but manageable) range of options. Locus remembers the settings of the overlays for each style (Neat, Menion!).
The key (same link as post above: http://bit.ly/volkeybeta ) has also been updated.
Voluntary Cruiser is included here for completeness but is not intended for use with the Locus app.
This is still beta, but almost ready for release.

I've reworked the Voluntary theme significantly to take advantage of selectable overlays in themes. Display of hiking, cycle and mountain bike routes can now be switched on or off, as can highlighting for each of them. I've limited the number of options shown to aid ease of use. As far as possible this works for both LoMaps from Locus Store and maps from OpenAndroMaps.
There are other improvements, including embankments and dykes and cycle tracks and lanes on OpenAndroMaps and a Yellow version to help when using overlays such as Strava (see http://www.locusmap.eu/strava-heatmap-in-locus-why-not/).
I have also provided a slightly more limited version for Cruiser and Orux. The "bugfix" version has been retired.
As this is the first release with these features, please treat this as a beta and let me have your comments, please. Once I'm sure it is working well, I'll upload it to the first post as usual.

@menion: can you make the menu scroll further than (apparently) necessary to give margin for this sort of thing?

Now sorted in the new beta, thanks

@menion: can you make the menu scroll further than (apparently) necessary to give margin for this sort of thing?

That's after tap and move as far as it can go up. The problem is linked to the soft button bar appearing at the bottom.

Search options are not all displayed now. Despite being in full screen mode, the soft buttons bar appears and make the bottom of the options menu, which will not scroll far enough. Phone: MotoG.

It works fine for me too. Many thanks.

Point detail location not displayed on latest beta. See screenshots which are self explanatory
.
The first screenshot is with the beta, the second screen shot with the latest full release.

That sounds like the best solution. I await the next beta.

So why do I keep getting this Activate Device Administrator screen now. Not all time, but every so often.
