Hi,  THATS IT, now it works perfectly. Thanks very much.

Hi, it works on google earth, but cannot load in google maps.
 It's a big file, about 15000 POI (all german Speedcams).

The File is like this:

Even if i cut ~14999 POI's and just leave one left in the file, it doesnt show the ICON in Locus given by the URL...

hi,

did cleanup,
then reinstall ... didnt work ...

may be i still do something wrong.

Hi,

thank you for your answer.

i looked at the *.gif files, and found that they were *.png files with *.gif extention.
i renamed them and also changed the <href> path again. zipped to *.kmz.
Checked the *.kmz with google earth, everthing works there.

But in Locus there is the same "bump" icon.

next thing is that i trie to reinstall locus. may be there is something with directory rights or something in my system

Hi,
i tried to do exactly the same (may be i did something wrong i dont know).

- i downloaded a speedcam *.kml file with linked <href> icons from the internet.
- the file shows well in google-earth
- importing in locus works, but just the same "bump" icon shown for every poi

- i did the changings ( files/ directory, icon download into files/, changing <href> to local, zipping, renaming kmz)
- the file shows well in google-earth
- importing in locus works, but just the same "bump" icon shown for every poi

makes me crazy, is there perhaps any icon-format not supportet (they are *.gif 22x22) ?

Thanky for your help.

Locus is a great Tool

Greetings Hossini

PS: i can send kmz if someone wanna see

Hi,
Problem never came back again.
I still wonder what happened that day.
Thanks.

PS: Locus is a great Program i use it every day.

Hi,

Locos Pro downloaded >700MB in just 3 hours an crashed my Data Limit.
Application was in running in background, and i was just sitting on my working desk.
Used Online Map "OSM Cyclo". Was an Locus Free user, buyed Locus Pro one Day before.
Never had such a Problem - What happened?

Tnx
