Thank you, I have already tried them as well but for walking paths in Italy at least no one of them is nearly as good as the Online map.
It's a bit misinformative, you are looking at the online map and are offered to download it to device, after payment you get a completely different looking map.
Of course I know the difference, but work should be done so these two Locus maps are as similar as possible.
Now, is it possible to add the Locus map online map as a map source in other apps as well?

I just bought a map in Locus for Italy because I like what I saw with the online map. However, the purchased map is not nearly as good as the online when it comes to visibility. First screenshot below is the online map where walking paths are really visible, second screenshot is the purchased downloadable map .
Is it possible to make the purchased map look the same?

Perfect. However I cant make it work woth any of the modes.

Here is my provider:

Code Select Expand

<provider id="10921" type="1" visible="true" background="-1">
<name>Hitta Friluft</name>
<mode>Classic</mode>
<countries>Sweden</countries>

<url><![CDATA[http://static.hitta.se/tile/v3/4_2x/{z}/{x}/{y}]]></url>
<zoomPart>{z}-8</zoomPart>
<zoomMin>12</zoomMin>
<zoomMax>25</zoomMax>
<tileSize>256</tileSize>

</provider>

The URL string has to have x/y (lon/lat) included. Are they in the right place (order)?

In Guru maps we use invY, inverted Y. Is it possible with Locus?

This is what works in Guru maps for the same map source:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<customMapSource>
<name>Hitta Frilufts</name>
<url>http://static.hitta.se/tile/v3/4_2x/{$z}/{$x}/{$invY}</url>
</customMapSource>

If I remember correctly this is what is in the providers file:

Code Select Expand

<provider id="10921" type="1" visible="true" background="-1">
<name>Hitta Friluft</name>
<mode>Classic</mode>

I am trying to add an online mapsource. The map displays its tiles not in order. What can be wrong?

Any ideas why it is so thin and opaque sometimes? Makes it hard to see.

the default navigation track style can be changed to other styles - main menu > Settings > Navigation > Line style. The solid line indicates your track, the clear track indicates your route. All settings are a compromise to suit the majority, but the great thing about Locus is the huge amount of customization to help those want something a little different.

In my case i am stationary, I just change zoom level on the map and pan arround. I get that it might change after I have travelled a bit but this is all done 5 seconds apart from the same location

In this example I have pointed on a location on the map and told locus to navigate to it.
Here the whole route is shown:

Here it is zoomed in:
