Locus Map (4+) / Re: Locus Map 4, discussion

« on: Yesterday at 08:52:20 »

@freischneider
- settings for hiding panels apply currently only on the main map screen. Anyway agree that is may be useful to apply them globally on all screens with maps. I'll think about it, thanks.
- "planning buttons" > simply add two points to plan and space will diss-appear

@Žajdlík Josef
- permanently visible rec-button: hmm if, then only optionally
- long-click on record button > agree

@tapio
I've this in todo list. Because panels have now a little different behavior, they are not yet in presets system.

Libor, thanks for the investigation. You are correct, I've found one parameter that has an influence on this and that caused, that tracks above around 100km were not correctly refreshed after the calculation is done. Thanks for the big help in discovering reason for this and sorry for extra work.

I think that Josef means by bookmark another TAB. So there should be a screen with three tabs: Recording, GPS, Compass, right?
I just a few days ago thought about separating GPS & Compass so you think exactly opposite . More tabs > slower display of the screen. Sorry Josef, I'm really not a fan of this "merging" idea. From my point of view, it will really complicate my work and also explanation why these functions are merged and not some others.

@Andrew Heard
Nearest points > hmm this may be useful, agree. For now, it is possible to at least display them on the map

Generate trip > mystery for me. I'll prepare some debug messages for you into the next version.

Swipe from left > I've noticed this as well, thanks for the reminder

Swipe from bottom > no idea . Isn't it possible that under finger was shaping/via point so you dragged this point?

Themes - Vector maps / Re: [Theme] RGB Night Theme for Vectormaps

« on: March 26, 2020, 08:03:22 »

Not necessary I believe. I'm sure that the theme works correctly for LoMaps we provider over Locus Store or any other V3 based vector maps.

Agree anyway that it's not clear for which maps it works, anyway generally consider LoMaps as main maps for which we provide themes in the Store.

Thanks balloni, you are correct, these are results of some failed backups. I've added it to "Backup improvements" todo list, thanks.

Start navigation and when it's active, tap on any point. In the bottom toolbar will be a little weird new icon that adds the current point into active navigation and perform recompute.
I've tested it only on "sofa" so it definitely needs some field testing.

Hi, did you found a moment to test the latest 3.44.3 version, if mentioned issues are fixed? Thanks

Troubles & Questions / Re: FIT file with course points

« on: March 25, 2020, 09:12:10 »

Hello Willy,
I'm just checking all three fit files and they are correctly loaded into GPXSee app on the desktop.
Do you know any other desktop app that is able to load FIT files?

Because I do not know what exactly is a problem on the Plotaroute web. I'm no expert on FIT files so it is absolutely possible that FIT files produced by Locus have any problem. Anyway now we have one web that denny this file and one app that is able to load it ...

You are in touch with a Plotaroute developer right? Should be easiest to ask him for a small help here (with link on these last two posts). Thanks

Themes - Vector maps / Re: [Theme] RGB Night Theme for Vectormaps

« on: March 25, 2020, 08:54:17 »

You may give it a try .

Anyway, I expect that you will at least need to change "version" parameter in theme XML header to 4+ value.

Hello Mario,
unfortunately, as I mentioned before, work on this add-on is currently paused (definitely not terminated). Sorry.

Hi guys,
sorry for a delay, some versions & bug-fixes during last week ...

New Alpha version 3.44.3.1 uploaded to Google Drive for download. News after the start as usual.

@Žajdlík Josef
Thanks for the idea with combined rec/gps button. I can't imagine how this may work. Side recording panel is quite big, same with satellite screen, so how you choose which screen to open? I made a small change in recording button to better fit current design, just for quick test.

@Andrew Heard
probably some problems with the auto-loading of maps.

@tapio
if you tap on the menu > more > import, then this imported file (track) has an incorrect name? May you please double-check it? Because I see no problem on my side, thanks.

@slarti76
missing section: hmm good observation. It seems to be a problem not directly in my code. I'll have to do something with it, thanks.
"Check for updates problem" may be a little more complicated. I'll discuss this with @Petr if we have something to do here.

@balloni55
ah, thanks

@Andrew Heard
"Generate trip" > nothing? No toast, no message? Quite weird ...

Menu item to switch points in the itinerary, good idea, thanks.

@lor74cas
hmm what a nice idea, thanks! Looks quite good. I'm checking what is capable of the library, used for the charts and this seems to be too much for it (which is also answer to @Žajdlík Josef). I'm adding this idea to my "Check it" list and look at it more carefully a little later. I'll most probably need to modify this library for some other tasks as well later.

REC button, sure I know, not yet found a good idea.

Italy, hmm ... at least some solo hiking in your case is not possible? Good luck anyway!

Troubles & Questions / Re: Do hidden POIs still use computing power?

« on: March 14, 2020, 19:39:55 »

Hello,
there is close to zero power needed to handle some hidden points, so no worry. If worry, then with sizes close to 100.000, but definitely not a few 1.000.

If we talk about CPU power needed when points are enabled/visible, then yes, there is of course some. How much they affect your device may be noticeable by the lower reaction of the map (decreased FPS). But here also, a few thousand of points should generally not be a problem.
