Thank you for the fast response.

Hello,

I tryied to update my Locus Pro from Androitpit. But I got only the Version 3.0.2.
However the newest version is 3.1.1.

The Locus Free Version is ok and is 3.1.1

Who could help to upload the proper Version 3.1.1 of Locus Pro to Androitpit?

Hello menion,
just now I updated to Locus Pro 2.7.2.
The time for starting Locus has improved a lot and take in my situation only less than one second.
(I use about 40.000 points, a lot of own and vector Maps).
Unfortunately I am not able to give more feedback because I use Locus only for walking around different areas.
Also the work with tracks are fine for me.

Hello menion,
I used Locus Pro version 2.7.1
Not anymore the selected track will be displayed on a map.

After this failur I have deleted and made a new installation of Locus Pro fom Play Store.
But still the same problem.
After opening Locus Pro I choosed
- Data
- Tracks
- than choosed a track
- in the information view at the bottom there is the icon of map
- after pressing this icon the map will be seen

but

it will not be jumped to the selected track
It is still the former track in the map.

I do not know what to do.
What could it be?

Hello menion,

all is now ok and works fine within tracks.

I deleted all folders and files from Locus Pro on my phone. Than I installed Locus Pro again from market place.
Than I copied back my former points and tracks, but now only the files from data/_pre270 into /data.
The conversion took 1 1/2 hours.
Perhaps there was a confliced with the former beta 2.7. which I had installed and worked on.

Nevertheless thanks for your fine work.

Realy fast changes
I want to give feedback to 2.6.3.3 some was now allready fixed. Now I was testing ..6.3.4 and I saw already 6.3.5 is available.
So I give only feedback to 6.3.4 regarding tracks.
If I move a track from one category to another it works but the counting
still are the old one. But if I jump out and in again the counting is ok. Is only a minor point.

Is it possible to import more than one track together? At this time I can only import step by step one by one track.

Category of points and tracks to be to delete
Delition of categories are only possible when no points/tracks are stored  behind a category otherwise a message appears
"Category is no empty!" .
Perhaps a button yes/no could be solve it.

But nevertheless it is a big improvement for me.
Thanks a lot for this work.

[Locus now use new system for storing points & tracks]

Hello Guys,
   almost month, no actions from my side, sorry. Too long vacation and around 10 full days of work on complete change of database system in whole Locus. To make it short:

Locus now use new system for storing points & tracks
reason: old system limited possibilities I need for future development, so this was necessary (and planned for almost an year)
side-effect: new system is not compatible with old one. Locus will at start completely convert old data into new one!

!!! Before update do complete backup of all *SQLL files in Locus/data directory !!!

Locus will do automatic backup in case of successful conversion, into Locus/data/_pre270, but just for case, do it manually before update

What update brings
For now:
 - categories also for tracks (I know, it was long waiting, and finally you all convinced me)
 - size of stored tracks is now unlimited (finally solved problems with limit on 1MB)
 - improved waypoint screen (screen when you tap on point in category list or on map)
 - improved tracks screen (when you tap on track in list of tracks)
 - implemented completely new API (not yet public)
 - some other small improvements

Why public testing version
update affect really HUGE core part of Locus. Almost in every single file was some changes, in part handling with database is rewrote almost everything. So please, if you'll have patient and want to play with it, report me every single problem. There is so many features ... I'll be playing with every possible feature next days, but more heads, more discovered problems!!

Expect problems! So don't blame me if something will not work correctly now. And once more, backup your database files before update. All should works correctly, but just in case ...

Hello menion,

Sorry, please could you help me a little bit to find the newest beta version 2.7.0.
I was searching a lot but did not find the propper app.
Is it in the market place or in this forum available?

..and for your own vote -  you have to login too.
hm - or Menion can vote for you :mrgreen:

so let us know, if you still have problems.

Ok. I have stored the ask into "get satisfaction".

If somebody need also such possibility to create own categories within tracks
please vote for this point in:

Hello gynta,

Thanks for the feedback.
I will post it as idea today.

ok. I have tried it, but without success.

I have added a topic. than pressed the button
Posting ....
and got below selection:
Login using any of these options:
get satisfaction ....

I did not know what to do.

Please could you add the topic instead of me like below:
>topic: Idea<
<Addition of own categories to track menu>
In pois we have the plus button to add a poi category there.
But within tracks it is not possibel.
There are only fixed categories to choose.
Please could you make possible that we could add
own categories to the tracks.

Hello gynta,

"please tell us your choice ":
It was my failure. I was coming from Pathaway when I used PPC with MS-Software. But also in Pathaway there was not the possibility to categorize tracks. I have it done "outside" in the old PC-Software Touratech 4. From there I exported them into Pathaway.

"Maybe Menion can add some of your categories"

No that make no sense for other user. For example I thought when I have some tracks of the area of
- North See or
- Baltic Sea
- Italian trip
- Norwegion trip
- etc.
than I could handle it in a better way.
I do not use the categories from Locus. I must use instead only
- Import
- record
The otherone makes no sense for my handling.
Unfortunately there is no overview for my usage.

Nevertheless thanks for feedback.

Hello,

Thanks for fast feedback. It's a pitty do not have this function. Than I must have used it in another Software. Sorry!
Why is it not possible to have the same function like in pois? In my opinion so much predefined categories are not as useful than own ones.

Hello,

I am new in this forum, but I used Locus Pro for a longer time. Today I have updated to version 2.6.3.
If I go to data and than to tracks there is not anymore possible to add own categories.
In pois I have the plus button to add a poi category there. But within tracks it is not anymore possibel. There are only fixed categories to choose.
Please could you make possible that I could add my own categories to the tracks.

Thanks for helping.
