hier findest du Infos zur Trackverwaltung: https://docs.locusmap.app/de/doku.php?id=manual:user_guide:tracks:management

When I search for water, a list of POIs is displayed at the bottom. Only the name is present in the list. It would be helpful if behind the name, the distance to the current map center is displayed. Possibly a direction arrow. At the moment I have to click on each result to get this information.

Und am besten gleich mit einem Phone mit Dual GPS vergleichen. Das kann anscheinend bis 1m genau.
Die Frage ist auch, für was braucht man ein noch genaueres GPS ?
Dann ist das auch eine Frage des Preises. Bei 30 Euro kann man überlegen. Bei 100 kaufe ich mir lieber ein besseres Phone mit Dual GPS und IP68.

So wie ich es heraushöre willst du uns ein entsprechendes Gerät verkaufen.

Maybe you can choose between Google results and OSM results or both. You can put a symbol in front of Google results. On the basis of the distance I see immediately so that the one from G is the same as the one from OSM. and if only one of G is there with this distance, then it was already worth it.

For certain searches I would choose only Category, because water or spring you find bad at G.
With restaurant and cafe it is very important with G search.
Here one could still insert: If I click on the icon of the G result it is opened in Google Maps and I see immediately pictures, rating, etc. And if I click on the text it is displayed on the map.

@settler
nope, sorry.
This one should be less disturbing and helps to distinguish really active content on the screen (buttons) from the simple toolbar.

Please consider reverting the menu colors to their previous state. The new (bright light blue) colors are very annoying. The old shade was optimal.

I think the best option is to make it configurable from the "expert menu".

You're going to have to get used to it. I find it much better. Besides, it is only optics and is very rarely shown. Therefore, we should not waste time on it and rather invest it in better function. On the main map it is not visible at all and this is normally used 80% of the time.

no offence, tastes are different. Babyblue always makes me tired. Sometimes small differences in shades give a totally different impression. I'll try my best, promise!

The main thing is that the function is good. The contrast to black characters is better with light blue than with dark blue.
And if you get tired, you have to drink one more coffee.  :-)

Ihr solltet alle die Hersteller anschreiben damit sie diese Abschaltung unterlassen. Oder damit der Nutzer es aktiv umgehen kann. Sagt ihnen auch damit ihr kein Telefon der Marke mehr kauft wenn sie das nicht machen. Wenn das viele tun werden sie reagieren.

POI on the map do not open.

That is not correct behaviour - can you please record screen video of this? I can't simulate it.

I don't think I clicked correctly. It was auto rotate on and I didn't hit it right.
But I noticed that the center for clicking is under the icon. If I click slightly below it, it is activated. If I click slightly above it, it is not activated.
I think it makes sense to put the center in the middle of the icon or to extend the area upwards more than downwards.
Most users will try to click exactly on the icon and not under it.
The real place should be already below the small arrow. But the area to activate should not be.

@freischneider Here is the exact configuration file that determines what is suggested for typed word (or part of a word). If you do a search for "spo" in this file, you will see what is suggested if you type "spo" in Locus using German language. It is (conceptually) as simple as that. This file was created for us by user Balloni, please take it as a reference. If anyone is interested in improving this file -- also applies to other languages -- that's great, but first: I should properly explain how it all works to editors. (It is important, really, you see it). Also we should set up some collaborative platform for this. Let me know if you want to participate here, please.You cannot view this attachment. 

In principle, I am ready to help. I will take the time.
But I am not sure if I know how to work with JSON. I have never heard this before. and I don't want to do anything wrong.
Suggestion:
Open a topic for improving the search.
Make a child topic for each language (or the most important ones).
In the first post mention the people working on the file and how to make suggestions.
Then all people can make suggestions for improvement.
The person who adds the suggestion to the file clicks on the "Say thank you" button. Then other admins (editors of the file) will see that it has already been added.

Is there a file, table where we can specify which category is offered for a given search word.
I would like to have the search word: Water. I would also like to be offered the C. source. At the moment it is only C. Drinking water.

Also with search: Fountain I would like C. Drinking water and C. Source. At the moment there is no category at all.

POI on the map do not open.
1. I search for source
2. category source is offered to me
3. i select C. Source and all POI with source are highlighted and below is a listing of all.
4. i want to open a POI on the map but it does not work.
It only works when I select the POI in the listing. But there I do not know which is the one I want. All have the same name.

It would also be helpful if a small popup appears when I go with the cursor over the POI. This behavior is also active without searching on the map.

was verstehst du unter Track nachfahren ?

Den Befehl Preset nicht in die Seitenleiste sondern ins Hauptmenü. Das geht bei dir nicht, du hast das alte Locus.

Du kannst die Preset auch im Hauptmenü verlinken. Aber wie ich sehe hast du das ausgeblendet.
