Unfortunately the bug with external routing addons and starting navigation while moving isn't fixed. Locus still locks up while waiting for GPS, even though the signal is already there. Starting navigation via the POI addon button while driving works though as a workaround. I posted the bug in the developer forum.
The colors for elevation are now easy to read. I tested it for a few days in the mountains.
But I'd also like to see this option for the navigation route. I can choose a custom setting there, but I can't see which way to go at intersections. Sometimes there are two or three options for turning right.
I also tested the e-bike sensor for the EP8. My battery level was displayed perfectly on the dashboard.
But the first time I use it, I always have to activate it. That's very time-consuming: Menu, Settings, GPS Sensors, Sensor Manager, Connect.
If I turn off the e-bike while riding and turn it back on after a short time, the sensor is immediately recognized.
But when I launch Locus the next day, I have to reconnect the sensor.
Am I doing something wrong? Is there a faster way? Or is there a way to have the sensor connect automatically every time?

Ahoj Menion, po poslednej aktualizacii mam jednu chybu :
Mam ulozenu trasu v kniznici. Ak si trasu vyberiem, ukaze sa mapa, informacie o trase, maly graf ...
Ale pod tym by sa mal zobrazit pomocny riadok s moznostami > upravit, preplanovat, nastroje, navigacia a podobne.
Toto menu sa zobrazi ale je takmer neviditelne, len cast ikoniek dole sa ukazuje, ten riadok neviem ci sa da niekde zvacsit.
Cervenou som vyznacil problemove menu.
Casto totiz po dojdeni do ciela si dam ulozit trasu, potom nastroje, aktualizovat nadmorsku vysku pre spresnenie prejdenej vysky, ale teraz sa k tomu neviem dostat.
@TrulloF oki, let's discuss it in a separate topic. It is starting to be quite complicated. Mainly because I'm unable to simulate any problem ...
@freischneider intersections visibility > hmm, good point, but how to do it? Default navigation colouring works pretty well here. Custom colouring is applied to the whole track, so these intersections are not as clear as before. And because I have to first draw the whole outline and then the whole fill (mainly for performance reasons), I see no easy solution here.
Auto-connect > I usually use two methods:
- shortcut to the "Sensors manager directly on the map screen, so just three taps to activate it
- and mainly auto-connect is enabled in the recording profile. So I have a bunch of sensors on the bike that always connected when I start "bike" recording profile
@Cykloturista my colleagu
@Marek Scholtz will help you here.
Great new version! Haven't seen that many great new features in one version in a while!
One observation:
It's great that the charts can now be zoomed in up to 100m sections. However, the markers at the bottom are still at minimum 0.2km distance, so in higher zoom you loose track of where you are. The marker at the current position at least has 0.1km accuracy, although in this case it would be nice to go down to 1m accuracy. Same for Time on X-Axis: Could show seconds for high zooms.

Oh, one more thing: When I pan the track such that the marker should move out on one side, it stays at the edge. Which would be ok, but the flyout still shows the values from before starting the pan. The screenshot shows additional problems: Flyout overlaying the "Zoom 100%" button and the tick marker on the X axis having "..."
Generally, I think the "Zoom 100%" button should be moved to the +/- buttons - it makes no sense to have that on each charts separately, as all zoom together anyway.

Hi, your issue should be fixed in the next release. Give it a try when it's available and let us know. Thanks!

Sichtbarkeit von Kreuzungen > Hmm, guter Punkt, aber wie lässt sich das umsetzen? Die Standard-Navigationsfarben funktionieren hier recht gut. Die benutzerdefinierten Farben werden auf die gesamte Strecke angewendet, daher sind diese Kreuzungen nicht mehr so deutlich wie zuvor. Und da ich zuerst die gesamte Kontur und dann die gesamte Füllung zeichnen muss (hauptsächlich aus Performancegründen), sehe ich hier keine einfache Lösung.
Automatische Verbindung > Normalerweise verwende ich zwei Methoden:
- Direkter Zugriff auf den ,,Sensoren-Manager" auf der Kartenansicht, daher nur drei Klicks zum Aktivieren.
- Und hauptsächlich ist die automatische Verbindung im Aufnahmeprofil aktiviert. Ich habe also eine Reihe von Sensoren am Fahrrad, die sich immer verbinden, wenn ich das Aufnahmeprofil ,,Fahrrad" starte.
It's too bad that displaying intersections doesn't work the same way as in the standard navigation yet. But maybe a solution will come along eventually.
The automatic connection of the sensor via the recording profile works great—thanks.
The idea of pinning the graph is a great solution.
