Implemented / Several wishes and bug reports
July 19, 2011, 02:42:09
Hi, first of all I want to thank you for this amazing piece of software!
I have some bug reports and wishes that could make this application even more awesome :)

  • Most annoying bug for me: when I open listing for some cache in Locus then switch to another application and then switch to Locus back, the Listing of this cache is closed and I see only map. It is really annoying for multi cache: when i need to solve formula for final coordinates, I need to write down formula to some "notepad" app. But I cannot copy&paste from listing and I don't remember whole formula. So I need to switch many times to rewrite whole formula and every time I do so, Locus closes the listing  :twisted:. So please fix this bug and if you want to make me really happy, make sentences from listing copy-able or bring any other solution for solving coordinates.
  • I don't understand how enabling and disabling GPS works in Locus. I use widget on homescreen that can enables and disables Wi-Fi, GPS etc. so I want for Locus to use GPS every time it is enabled. But Locus sometimes disables its internal option for GPS, so I have to go to another screen to enable this option - and it is for no reason. I just want this option not to disable itself.
  • When i open cache from c:geo, the icon will display on correct position on map, but all other layers that I have displayed are shifted (a lot - even for several kilometers). When i disable displaying this layer a enable again, it displays correctly. Also when Locus runs in background it works good. The problem is (probably) that Locus starts, then draw early displayed layers, then moves map to draw a new POI, but it doesn't move those layers.
  • This is related with previous bug. When I open some coordinates from external application, it would be great when Locus can first move map, then draw a point and at last draw all other layers (which could take a little time). It can save second every time and when I do it a lot...  ;)
  • When I switch from one downloaded map to another, that hasn't current zoom level, it would be great to use the closest one. It is pretty annoying to zoom 7 levels every time I switch map.
  • When I have filled in a place in google calendar event and I select Locus to display it, it often loads Locus and do nothing. For example coordinates "N 50° 5.0531', E 14° 26.4715'" does no move, no error message, just nothing. When I put those coordinates into address search, it finds it well, so there must be some problem with calling from external application. And even when Locus can't find that place (e.g. "my home"), it would be fine to show some error info instead of silent nothing.
  • It would be great when Locus can download Pocket Queries right from geocaching.com, so I can prepare PQ on my PC, set it to generate and then in Locus set to download this PQ and select category where to import POIs and where to waypoints.
  • Another thing related with geocaching: It would be usefull when Locus can download SPOILER images from geocaching.com (since they aren't included in GPX). It should be next tab next to "Listing" or part of bottom menu.
  • Locus should register handler for geocahing.com links and opens corresponding cache.

That's it for now, thank you once more for this great app!

Veliké díky za výbornou aplikaci, k dokonalosti už mi chybí pouze tlačítko "Donate".  :D
