Hi Locus Team!
I've gone thru all the settings, but haven't found a way to make the text readable under track charts and eg the distance ruler on the main screen, see the attachments.
Is there some option I've missed?
Thank you,
David
Hello,
this is really interesting. This happens with the latest "4.0.0 - Beta 2" version"?
Hi Menion,
Both the beta2 and the free version (which is availble from the play store) looks like this on my Xiaomi Note8 Pro.
Regards,
David
The Free version has also a black chart? Oki, then here is a problem. Locus Map Free does not support dark mode natively, so you probably force these dark colors somehow over some system settings? I do not have Xiaomi, but I've read this is possible somehow.
Yes, I use dark mode on system level and it was applied/forced on Locus.
Aftering putting Locus on the exception list, it renders properly in both versions.
Is there anything you can do about the beta being unreadable, should that already work?
If you need some data to debug, tell me what to share, I'm glad to help.
Thanks!
Give a try to proper dark mode in the Locus Map 4 (Beta).
Just enable expert settings (https://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:advanced:customization:config#expert_settings) (I have to move it to regular app settings finally) and enable support for dark mode there (just scroll at the bottom). This should help.
this way it works fine, thanks for your help!
I have similar problem with Locus Map Pro 3.x I have bought last month.
My device is Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Pro with "dark mode" enabled.
The points label is grey with white fonts and it looks totally unreadable as it looks on picture.
The second picture is from version 4.x this great application
For LM 4.x it is resolved so I hope it is easy to implement in 3.5 as well. Is there a chance to correct it in LM 3.x version?
ask here. He had the same problem. It was at the settings of Xiaomi.

Hmm for Locus Map Pro it may be really a pain.
Xiaomi devices use some kind of hack that try to force apps to use dark mode. This is anyway not officially supported Android feature and Locus Map Pro or Locus Map 4 are not prepared for this hack. So my advice: do not use this Xiaomi function. The correctly implemented dark mode is in Locus Map 4.
@freischneider thank you for solution. It works like hell. I have never known about possibility to exclude application in Dark Mode on Xiaomi phone ;-) It is a pity I lost dark theme in menu only...
@Menion Even this Dark Mode is own Xiaomi implmentation it works on LM 4.0 correctly but probably you made plenty of work to do it. There is black label instead grey/white (3.x) even Dark Mode is on
