[APP] - version 4.15.+ ( 3/2023 )

Ah sorry, I've united the system so it will work identically for points and tracks now (track style), and forget to write it here.

Tapio · March 31, 2023, 15:15:58

Thanks for the update, I think bottom panel is good now.

The poi marker, when selected poi is out of view... Shouldn't it show a marker for tracks as well? Pointing to track center... or wherever?

Menion · March 31, 2023, 15:48:59

@Tapio you are fast, I've published update maybe an hour ago

Thanks for the tests!

Pointer for tracks, hmm good idea. I'll think about it, thanks ...

So the new Beta version 4.15.2.3 was finally, published.
Enjoy the last version with the old address search

@Menion
Small question. Where is the legend file for openandromaps Elevate is located? Is it a pdf?

I would like to replace it with an own one.
I want to create one which includes only the parts I'm interested in.

It is a PDF. Is in the themes folder at Elevate

Works. Thanks

I downloaded Germany-North 04.04.2023 today, zip, v5, and it's working fine with Elevate and with newer LoMaps-MF-beta-theme and VoluntaryUK-MF-beta-theme.
Haven't checked any map-feature though. Citynames and name-priority are somewhat different between themes.
All these different numbers are irritating, V4 here,V5 there, I suggest to call the new beta-themes simply MF-themes, as not being Locus-specific.

@T-mo
Sorry about the theme versioning. I'm not sure how Voluntary arrived at version 5, except it has v5 in the first line of the theme. Sadly it has to be Locus specific as Locus uses a pre release version of Mapsforge and also treats routes totally differently from OAM. The theme has various workarounds in order to function with both Lomaps and OAM maps on Locus (but on no other app at present)
The beta version is being updated regularly at present.

As for the Germany.zip, it was a faulty download on my end - the map works.

I like the new backup manager. The only thing I would have liked is mapitems/Calibrated_maps

Menion · April 06, 2023, 20:13:09

So the new Beta version 4.15.2.4 was published.

I was quite sure, that it will already contain a new search system, but we are trying to make it perfect even for the Beta version, so a few more days are necessary. At least an improved Backup manager as @freischneider already noticed and few more tweaks.

@Tapio
are there any exact steps that cause this issue? Even on your side?

Thx, it is solved as I said in https://forum.locusmap.eu/index.php?msg=71053
Was a broken download.

New backup manager, good. Terminology could be better, maybe 'Processing' instead of "Loading". Also when it's finished and you congratulate, the bottom right button should be named "OK". Imo that intermediate congrats screen is too much.

If everything is checked, you could just write "Everything" or "Full"... , so we don't need to double check. Screenshot

beta 4.15.2.4

1. is initialization during start different? Now loading instead of detailed list, though it was always quite fast

Backup manager
2. content, left to select-button: IMHO text is of no value. Honestly a shortened enumeration missing details instead of a list never makes sense to me. I suggest using a list, maybe in smaller font size if used screen-space is a matter. I suggest to begin with summary like:
Full Backup: NO
Enabled items: 9/10
item1
item2
(item3 not listed as being disabled)
item4
...
...

Just an idea.

3. status & details during processing missing. Any processing >1s should provide details about what's going on.

4. I am with Tapio, wording: "loading" during a saving-action is not the best choice

5. Congrats! (just sharing my impressions)
