I've got BRouter working within Locus fine using the "standard" method but I'm struggling with this via points method.
I have previously set custom folders for Locus on my external SD, including for mapitems.
I think I have correctly set "from" and "to" Quickpoints, stored in a BRouter folder.
When I run the BRouter app, it cannot find the points in what it tells me is the default folder, /storage/emulated/0/Locus.
I can neither work out where they actually are, nor how to tell BRouter where to look.
Can anyone please help?

This wasn't intended to be off topic, so I'd better be clearer.
I can do the normal Locus routing with BRouter, including using via points. I now am trying the alternative method, including no go areas. However I have not yet managed to get even the from and to points working.

Themes work for me in both pro and latest beta. I had trouble following the previous beta update until I carefully checked all the data directories. I found my settings didn't make sense, and couldn't understand how Locus had worked before with directories set as they were. Something changed in the ability of Locus to "guess" the correct directory (or possibly for the beta version to look in the pro version's settings or directories).

Revised version in the first post and available in Locus Store (free).
I've revised rendering of tracks and unsurfaced roads for consistency and clarity; revised rendering of private roads and paths, and of "customer" roads for clarity; included kissing gates and turnstiles for new maps from OpenAndroMaps; reduced size of captions of monuments and memorials for consistency.
The kissing gate symbol is a visual pun: a gate with an "x" for a kiss. Extras subfolder in svg folder contains alternative symbols for the kissing gate, and also for dollar and euro areas. Just copy the chosen symbol into the svg folder.

I don't think it is, but it is possible to move to an OS map reference.
Settings > Search > Move to... > Co-ordinates
Then choose OSGB 1936 (British National Grid) from the pull down menu and enter your map reference and press Set.

I prefer a map similar to good old paper maps with information about surrounding area. Not only points I am looking for but other interesting things too. Each to his own.

@john_percy: may you please check bottom blue "+" button > "Add external maps", if there is not this world map folder? By any accident. Thanks

Aha. Yes, I had my Vector maps folder "added" here and the _world folder is a subfolder.of this. My Vector maps folder is also linked by Settings > Miscellaneous > Default directories
Did something change, or was it me?

In the latest pro and beta versions, the World vector map reappears in list of maps although it should be hidden.
I deleted the map and downloaded it again from the store. On restarting Locus, it was back in the list of maps .

Improvements to widgets cannot be tested in beta, as widgets do not work on beta versions of Locus.

I have maps in sdcard1/Locusmaps/ and use a routing data folder in the same location. The vector maps directory is defined by me in Locus settings.
This is on a MotoG upgraded to Lollipop.

It works for me. Did you run the Locus GraphHopper add-on after downloading it and select the data directory?

hmm where you see that "map should be in the folder with the GraphHopper data"?

System is really simple. Directory Locus/mapsVector is container for all Locus vector (mapsForge) maps. And in same directory should be routing data for graphHopper. It is the place, were add-on search for them. No matter how deep (nested subfolders) they are, add-on just search for directories that ends with "-gh".

See the link "how to generate routing data" in your first post; then point 4: put berlin.map in the same folder as your routing data.

@menion: I think @tommi needs clarification on where the GraphHopper data should be put.
I have a gh folder at the same level as the map, which works. However the reference page seems to suggest that the map should be in the folder with the GraphHopper data.

[English] I have the same problem [/English]

@jusc: You could download the latest corrected hgt data from http://www.viewfinderpanoramas.org/Coverage%20map%20viewfinderpanoramas_org3.htm and see if it gives the same error when you upload it into Locus.
