I think we had discussion about "the first point as via", right? I'm not sure if this is a good idea, because it may block you like "strict" navigation on the first point.

---

Ah "0" vs "false", nice . Currently, only 0/1 is supported. I think it may be improved, thanks.

For some of you with working offline GraphHopper solution, new version 0.10: https://github.com/asamm/locus-addon-graphhopper/releases/tag/0.10

Needs new routing data from @develar web page (please select "GraphHopper pre31 from the selection).

Zdravím,
za mě, zkusil bych přímo v aplikaci dostupnou funkci "Kalibrace mapy": https://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=cz:manual:user_guide:maps_tools:calibrator.

Ah, I probably finally understand. On my device, Locus Map no longer offers BRouter profiles, because BRouter directory is not in the root of internal memory.

So the last thing, may you please share here your profile from the BRouter directory that does not work as expected? To be sure we talk about same file. I'll check it, thanks.
It is possible, there is any new problem because I've added support for a few more parameters and also changed how these parameters are saved.

Btw. no feedback from anyone on this: now, every profile has own value for parameters, they are not shared across all of them. There was a discussion a long time ago about this, and I finally feel, that this may be more useful, mainly because more and more parameters come into play.

@slart76
as I wrote before: agree. Points defined in "Navigate to" as via-points, should be really considered as "via-points". I'll look at it.

EDIT: hmm based on the code, they should be used as regular via-points and also based on my sofa-testing, it works, interesting.

So you have the switch turned off, you see at top title "BRouter profiles" and you expect that checkboxes at the bottom with parameters will be enabled, right?

This worked before? I can't imagine how to be true. With this option, Locus only offer a limited list of routing types where every only defines two parameters that are sent to BRouter service: type (motorcar | bicycle | foot) and "fast" (true | false). Locus Map does not load any routing file directly from the BRouter directory to analyze its content.

Ah, sorry, this is news for Locus Map 4, not for the regular version.

EDIT: back, it's correctly only in LM4 Alpha version, isn't it? There should be a small icon directly above the centering button in the route planner.

"Various" label > ah, thanks, fixed

Navigation problems:
- what you describe in the first paragraph: Locus works correctly.
"Point priority" search for next defined "Via point", which most probably was your destination. To have real via-points, you need a "blue rectangle" in route planner ( https://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:user_guide:tracks:planning#add_via_points ).
For the round trips, I highly recommend "Route priority", that tries to stick you on the planned route.

EDIT: ah, just correctly commented by @pountikl, thanks!

Paused track recording
Never ever happen to me, do not know. Anyway Locus itself definitely does nothing like this. Isn't there any tasker you use for example that may do this? In case of any battery optimization when the system kill Locus completely, navigation will stop.

Additional question:
If you planned route in Route planner, you may simply open Route planner over specific route > context menu > Route planner. If you use "Navigate to" function, then exactly what you need is not possible, good point.

@poutnikl
not sure what exactly is a problem. In Locus BRouter settings screen is at the top, switch that change between internal profiles (yes, your older profiles or some user-defined) and profiles included in the BRouter itself.

@tapio
I'm playing with restoring previously planner route and for me, it works correctly. Are you able to create a  short video (nice tool for this). Thanks.

Troubles & Questions / Re: Apple buys Dark Sky weather app

You are right. Today - still the same information. Shame, such a nice service which I just wanted to use a lot more next month (weather forecast in recorded tracks).

Seems it will work till end of 2021, so hopefully enough time to find a usable replacement.

@0709, @freischneider, @SonnyS
It's simple: "if it isn't broke don't fix it" > everything on Android brake from time to time and needs a rewrite. Not just stuff inside, but also UI. It is not visible, but more than 50% of my time is spent on UI updates, because with every new Android, new Android library, something stops to work correctly. If I stop changing stuff, I may also stop improving and updating ... it's not broken, so why update it.

Exactly because of what you wrote, we made a decision about Locus Map future. That's main reason, why I'll be "wasting" time and keeping Locus Classic (current Locus Map Pro) with current (as much as possible) UI, current functionality etc ... to keep users who are happy with current app .. still happy.

And who won't be worry to risk a different version, there will be a new Locus Map. Don't search for some mystery here, progress can't be stopped .. at least not progress in my head .

Anyway, you may still notice, that even that I try to make UI easier and more logical for new users, there still be a lot of options to customize it ... I have a feeling that even more than before .

Hmm, what does it mean "full google services"? May you point me on the post with more info about it? Because Locus Map detects, if Google Play Services are available, but seems it is not enough in your case, interesting.

Also, suggest to check settings > GPS & Sensors > Google Services assisted location. This have a significant effect on how the location is obtained.

@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.
