Title: Track Wish
Post by: cerdovolador on March 23, 2011, 21:20:53
Hi,
I find it wolud be nice some option to join tracks and manage them as a unique track.
I mean, for example if you're recording a track, and for some reason you have to shut down GPS,
or lost signal, you will manually need to add a new track to fill the gaps in the complete route.
If this happen on a long route, you will finally have a lot of small recorded and edited tracks.

My wish would be to merge all of it into a one unique track.
So that you'd just mark the corresponding check box and all of the tracks would
show as unique.


Another Wish is about how to organize the POIs.
Some option like 'move to category' , I think is needed to organize POIs already saved.

Ok, that's all, thanks for your job Menion.

Very good idea. I could certainly use that feature.

What about the following implementation:
- manually create the missing tracks using the existing track creation tool
- in the Tasks list: check the box for the tracks you want to merge.
- then a new command at the bottom: "Merge".

If you think there isn't enough space for a new command button at the bottom, maybe the "Delete" button could be replaced by a more general button with a sub menu (just as you have for the Sort and Filter buttons).  This sub menu could have two commands: Delete and Merge. This approach would allow more options in the future. Just an idea.

Hi menion!

Any hints when we may expect the new version in the market with this really cool feature?

BTW, Locus is a real nice piece of software! After switching from Symbian to Android, I was really missing my beloved PathAway, until I found Locus! ;)

Nevertheless, PathAway still has some nice features I'm missing from Locus.

I also have a wish to the tracking feature (hopefully this isn't already existing I didn't see it):
I would like to have Locus to upload/send tracks directly to other web-services such as Google or Garmin Connect.

What do you think about this?

Sebastian
