Hi menion
currently possible zoom levels depend on (basis) map, e.g. Lo map up to ZL22, if i use a overlay with max e.g. ZL17 both displayed maps differ from ZL18 
I think it would be better, locus stop possibility to zoom if ZL isn´t available in overlay.

,,HowTo" find historical map images in internet with GE and create map for later use as overlay inside Locus.

Run rumsey_collection.kmz inside GE:
mark "index map" on left side in GE, > available maps are visible,
left mouse click on rectangle you are interested, next click link "read more, view....."
in opening browser window select map > "export", > "extra large" and download image.
Map covers ~27X37 Km, size <10MB unpacked .jpg, downscaled and calibrated ~ 17MB

or
Run historischekarten.kmz inside GE:
mark "Rahmen" on left side in GE, > available maps are visible,
open "Karten" with "+",
open "alphabetisch" with "+",
mark e.g. "Bamberg" now this map is loaded inside GE.
Right mouse click on "Bamberg"/Properties and copy link.
Open this link with your browser, right mouse click on image/save graphic


Calibrate this image inside Locus
menu/More functions/MAPTOOLS/Image map calibration
http://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:user_guide:maps_tools:calibrator

Since V 3.14.0 you can use kmz-files as overlay and set transparency of this,
so you´re able to compare e.g. building development or course of a river.

Attached you find both kmz-files

Have fun

P.S.
I am really astonished how precisely maps are drawn hundred years ago without any GPS and PC.

Hi menion
i was walking on a multi and can´t find a stage, so i run "update cache" to read last logs. Now i read in logs about changed formula and description inside a WPT, but i didn´t see any changes
Back home i took a look on cache description on PC and there i saw the changes.
After some tests i found, that changed WPT types or names are updated well after "update cache"  , but not changed content (text, formula) 
my solution for now, delete WPT´s and run "update cache" so also content of WPT is up to date

EDIT if you need an example for tests you can use one of my own e.g. GC21TVZ, let me know when you have installed it via GC4L then i will change some text inside WPT and give you info

Hi menion
in my maps offline folder are different maps available from same area.
If i delete current loaded offline map, switch back to map view, locus load randomly automatic a online map
In this case i expect that locus load another available offline map of this area.
If i open "select map", offline map tab is furthermore opened althought a online map is loaded.
see attached screencast

Hi menion
Menu>Settings>Track recording>Recording profiles/Advanced settings>Automatic export
by default there is no export type displayed
after export was once enabled, the export type e.g. GPX is always displayed in red letters in setting dialog although the "share exported data" is not enabled.
I think it would be more understandable if e.g. GPX is grayed, if "share exported data" is disabled

Hi menion
i´m not sure we discussed long time ago this problem,
http://coord.info/GC64GCG
Link for download of cartidge is inside listing of a wherigo cache, if i click on this link, page of wherigo.com is opened inside locus and i am not able to sign in for download this cartridge.
Is it possible to change behavior while click on a link inside a listing?
e.g. popup window,  "open in browser"   "copy link adress to clipboard"

Hi menion
address search with google and bing work well.
If is select MapQuest as source and do a long click on map, i allways get label "searching" and next label "Unknown address"

Hi menion
accidentally i´ve deleted the folder with my solved mysties last week.
- so i made a backup with backup file from september on locus free
- next i export the complete folder of solved mysteries as .gpx within discription
- backup locus free with file from yesterday
- import of exported solved mysteries folder
now my issue:
- no red dot on displayed icons on map
- no original coords in listing tab displayed
after cache update, althought "keep data during import" is checked
- my solved cache coords are displayed as original coords in listing tab
- mystery coords are back as initial

Hi menion,
while import process of a PQ the button text in portrait isn´t complete visible, so i changed orientation to landscape,
At that moment never ending "importing info" appears
Only solution for me: kill locus with taskmanager 

Hi menion,
since yesterday? i get no notification about new posts, althought it is set

e.g. on:

Hi menion,
this option didn´t work for me

Hi menion
if is set "always log offline" this work only for the first log i create for a geocache. If i create a second log for same geocache e.g. "write note" or "needs maintenance" window with additional online log option apeares, althaugh in settings is set "always log offline"

Hi menion, michal
in previus versions < V3.9 user was able to upload his logg as fieldnote
in manual it is discribed

OFFLINE
Store offline - stores geocache log for later online logging

with no limitation to PRO
so for me the current situation is not logical.
If FREE user is able to create a logg, he should be able to upload it, minimum as fieldlog
or if this is not desired, mark option "creat a logg" only available with PRO

Hi Petr,
after my purple rectangle problem  i baught a new Baden Wurttemberg map  date 5.6.15
with this map i found till now one broken track  trial
theme hiking, red tack trial > ZL13
and
theme cycle, magenta track trial > ZL14

where does this red marked folder link come from and how can i delete it ? Content is equal the green one
The green one is as I expected it and i know how to delete it if i want

with vectormap Germany or Baden Wurttemberg  from store and theme cycling i get a purple rectangle
(coords see scrennshot)  using ZL 14-17

trackables inside own or logged geocaches are neither shown in geocache label nor the tab with TB inside the cachedetails.
So i didn´t recognize if there is any available.
Only if i try to make an onlinelog it is possible to see the inventary

Hello menion,
while recording a track i  add a POI with  attachement "take photo"
i export track as kmz and open file in GE, photo is displayed behind text/values

Hi menion,
if user import geocaches by GC-link, downloaded.gpx or PQ and open cache listing with available internet connection preparing on sofa the upcoming tour, listing photos are displayed.
But these photos are not stored inside locus and this is deceptive!
On next tour with no internet connection (outdoor or in other country) these photos aren´t available anymore, this is annoying and not logical.

Is it possible to change this behavior? Images that were once visible are stored automatic and visible also without internet connection.

Of course, I know "Offlinizer"
