Troubles & Questions / Turn off JPEG overlay
February 13, 2013, 03:14:26
When I import a KMZ file that contains a JPEG overlay, how do I turn off the imported file so I can view the base map?

Hi, I used Locus for the first time today on a snowshoe hike. I used TopoFusion to create a kmz file that contains a georeferenced jpeg image of snowshoe trails. I imported the kmz file into Locus, recorded the track, and everything worked perfectly during the hike. The track was displayed normally on top of the jpeg image.

When I returned home, I used the base map to view the track in Locus and then imported the snowshoe trail kmz file. The showshoe trail jpeg image is covering the track. I can see the start and end markers, but not the track. How do I bring the track to the top?

I'm not sure if this is helpful, but this is the jpeg link from the kmz file:

Hi, I would like for the GPS to remain on when I exit Locus. I have tried all of the settings in "Turn on during start" but I can't seem to keep the GPS enabled when I exit Locus. What is the proper setting to always keep the GPS running?

Also, I don't understand what is being disabled when exiting Locus and the "Disabled" box is displayed. I thought Locus is disabling my device's GPS, but when I swipe down to see the Android notifications screen, the GPS button is still green.
