Haven't tested yet, maybe at weekend.
import/export of subfolders:
export of items typically means export of the selected items including their subtrees.
Import is typically the import of the once exported structure, maybe V1 or V2, while V2 this also might be different type of items incl. subfolders, as far as I understand the V2-change and new possibilities.
Well, anything else would make no sense.

@T-mo
you use really really old profiles (maybe 10+ years?). Btw. what app version are you using?

Might be, don't know.
Mostly bleeding edge, always Afa, currently 4.25.1_1141_release.

Mittlerweile ist die brouter-engine in LM4 integriert, als offline-routing.
Der bisherige Weg über brouter als App dürfte ebenfalls noch funktionieren.
Die Profile für LM4-offline-routing sind im Locus-Ordner unter /router/profiles2/.
Hier kannst Du welche von der brouter-app oder aus der zip (https://github.com/abrensch/brouter/releases) rüberkopieren. Du kannst sie mit einem Texteditor bearbeiten, wenn Du kompetent darin bist.
Menion überarbeitet gerade noch die Möglichkeit, in den Profilen genutzte Variablen aus Locus heraus per UI zu steuern, enabled/disabled und genutzte Werte. Das ist noch work-in-progress, funktioniert aber schon etwas.
Bei den Profilen musst Du testen, teils schicken die Dich auf die Straße statt direkt den breiten Fahrradweg daneben zu nutzen.
So ganz optimal ist das alles noch nicht.

Honestly, recording state can be enhanced, I caught myself unaware of the current state as no pulsating of symbols or location arrow or no changed color of track recording sidepanel-header is given, only the icon in the map-corner changes but that can generally mean different things UI-control-wise, though I was aware of its meaning.

Any idea of how to change the rec-profile-symbol, dedicated activity ?
I suppose this being a bug.
P.S. obviously missed the nonsense-advice in the help

Menion, please notice. The bottom command bar in point mode is barely shown. This is independent from using fullscreen mode.

Confirmed.
But only happens to me with a routeplanner planned track, which I saved, not with recorded tracks.
Only happens at  trackpoint 1 and then subsequently changing to no. 2 etc. With trackpoint 2 the detail popup changes its size with moved overlaying bottom bar, misplaced in the middle close to the location-header. Once I pull the detail popup down to make it smaller, the buttom bar jumps back to bottom, then fully visible, and everything stays fine.

@T-mo
full-screen > do not use it, if it does not work. It is a hacky unreliable system. That's why it was removed and will not come back. Thanks for understanding.

It works!!
99% flawlessly.
The 1% is at app-start and changes if some fullscreen-dialog is entered  e.g. settings, so it's more 0.5%.
This 0.5% was solved once, but sometimes things change.
It's just feedback to optimize LM.
If you have doublechecked the mechanism and code and it's superduper-tricky at all, then nothing to complain and good to know.
I just have coded too much in my life to sometimes not recognize unknown barriers.

As being an expert I am using expert settings, and here 'Fullscreen mode' in particular
Once again Locus starts with an additional black bar at top, which goes away once screen enters a Fullscreen-dialog, i.e. settings, track edit, route planning, then Fullscreen is working perfectly fine.
Though mentioned and corrected several times, zillion sort of, it seems that the used code or mechanism seems not being robust enough, checking bar states, or does not survive releases.

Das ist mit Sicherheit noch stark verbesserungswürdig. Ich fahre manchmal Strecken ohne Sicht aufs Smartphone und nur den gesprochen Streckenanweisungen nach, mit dem Rad. Je 60min Fahrtzeit (hohes Tempo) sollte man 10 Extraminuten einplanen, das meine ich wirklich so
Ich meine mich auch zu erinnern: bei den Anweisungen heißt 'nach links' eher links halten bzw. schräg links, wird bei 'bear_left' benutzt. Bei 90° käme eine andere Anweisung, im englischen 'turn left' bzw. 'links ab' (dürfte so sein, meine de.tts ist angepasst, ggf. nochmal bei github nachschauen)..oder sharp_left, not sure

@Andrew:
maybe try the package installer (if this is due to permissions) or redownload package?

Mir gefallen die Neuerungen grundsätzlich, aber braucht noch Feinschliff.

- dass die bestehende Ansicht nicht verändert wird würde ich vorschlagen, wenn's nervt. Kann das verstehen, manchmal schaut man, scrollt und zoomt aufwendig, und dann ist alles dahin.

- Anzahl Klicks - wenn die flowability gegeben ist, dann ist's eine Frage der Übung. Ich klicke oft blind, quasi mit erscheinen der Darstellung. Also schnell geht schon wenn man kann

- jetzt sieht man zumindest Teile der Karte und kann trotzdem voll konfigurieren, ggf. sogar korrigieren oder umstellen. Finde ich gut.

If home is visible as marker/POI, then simply click on it and then select the start-point-symbol, so it gets used as shaping point and the segment gets calculated.
If not, you can use the 3-dot-menu of 'Waiting for GPS...' and then change location. Be careful to move the map before using 'screen center' as only available select-on-map-choice otherwise you'll get an error as starting and end point is identical. In the past there has been 'select on map', now it's missing though useful and there's plenty of space given..god knows why. Maybe this was the meaningful point in the one discussion.

4.22.1_1127
deja-vu: black bar at top again at initial start, after switching to e.g. settings or route planner it disappears

@clock code instructions:
the only turn instructions that I know and ever read about are those in the tts-file, or alternatively simple beep or vibration patterns.
For my taste i don't prefer this intense differentiation of navigation and guiding and all options, it's more 1 topic and use cases and scenarios and set of options in my opinion. As far as I understood the diffentiation is a hurdle for new users too, but though it is.

jippy, inverse route direction - ideal for routing back based on the existing track and re-routing

• route planner: hitting the 3-dot-menu moves all controls up, like a white or invisible bar would appear, see screenshots. Seem nothing related with android-standard-controls/navigation-bar (currently don't know the right term) as those correctly appear as overlay
• route planner: selecting shaping point, then opening location-coordinates or location-menu and then cancel or back without any changes still seem to trigger a recalculation-process, green popup 'Process successful'

I searched for
hotel
Bier
Museum
and get results at 8th position very far away, 1000s of km, france, congo, kenya..
With 'bier' 1st suggestion might be a category like pub, food&drink, Trinkhalle..something with some very basic logic.

I'm coming from the perspective where you click "navigate to" in the side bar. There is no point in this context. But there's the screen center as the most likely target. So coming from there, you could either a) instantly set screen center as target (I prefer) or b) ask via above screenshot.

I understood your both different perspectives and was thinking exactly the same, just plain search as entry is currently just an empty input without any context. I guess most people will assume a) as underlying logic if the choice would be search. Other services are mostly with b).
Question is: what might be users intention to use a search and with which UI-elements this intention can be narrowed and supported at most. Screen center might be a start. Though there is way more.
