Troubles & Questions / Re: Set starting point
April 20, 2018, 09:30:42
Good day Christian,
unfortunately, such feature is still not yet in app.
Thanks for an idea: http://help.locusmap.eu/topic/set-starting-point , hope that other will give +/- votes, so I know if there is some interest in this.

How it may work?

  • you tap on trackpoint
  • choose "Set as start point"
  • Locus check if it's round trip
  • - if is (distance between last and first trackpoint is less then let's say few metres), continue
  • - if isn't, display a warning if you want to connect end with start point
  • then app reorder all data in the track to correctly set new start point
  • save new track
  • and finally remove the old track from the database
Uff, long list of tasks :). But doable ...

Troubles & Questions / Set starting point
August 26, 2014, 21:42:43
Hi guys,
I really like the features for editing tracks an use it often. But one is missing: to set (change) the starting point in a round trip track.
Sometimes I use downloaded tracks or old tracks but want to change the starting point and want to see the changed diagram with elevations.
So Locus has to check that the track has a round trip (with gaps of max. 250m) and than offer the function to set a new starting point.

I would like to request this as a new feature on the new help site. Any furter suggestions?
Regards,
Christian
