Navigation & Guidance / Re: Android Auto support
November 25, 2024, 13:04:23
First of all, a big fat THANK YOU for going Android Auto!

i was using my phone on offroad bikes so far, but the camera module does not really like the vibrations.

so, got myself an 6 inch Navyfly Device, so i can leave the phone in my pocket or backpack.

gonna test all as soon as possible and keep you updated!

again, big fat thumbs up!!!

Locus Map / Re: [APP] - version 4.26.+ ( 9/2024 )
November 25, 2024, 10:17:50
Please make the names of the Sort by options in the points and tracks menu konsistant.
WHY:

sort menu | function | named in version 4.26 | named incomming My libary (data manager), V2
tracks | sort by length of track | distance | length
points | sort by distance to active point | distance | distance
tracks | sort by distance to active point | nearest | distance

konsistant in 4.24  points distance  -> nearest
konsistant to comming My Libary (data manager), V2 tracks distance -> length and tracks nearest -> distance

You're right. Only the function is the same. I counted the opening of the folder structure. Previously the tree structure was always open. It doesn't matter, if it doesn't work then that's just how it is.

Die Frage ist tatsächlich allgemeiner Natur:

Jede Anwendung wird deutlich weniger Akku verbrauchen, wenn sie inaktiv ist und allenfalls im Hintergrund läuft und viel, wenn sie ständig "arbeitet". Der größte Verbraucher ist eh das Display.

Wenn du, wie freischneider schon schrieb, nur ab und zu mal aufs Handy schaust und Locus dann kurz aktivierst, um dich zu orientieren, wird der Akku kaum strapaziert.

Bei meinem älteren und intensiv genutzten S10 ist der Akku naturgemäß nicht mehr der frischeste. Wenn ich es auf einer Tagestour vielleicht 10 oder max. 20 x kurz aus der Tasche hole, um in Locus nach dem Weg zu schauen und sonst nichts damit mache, verbrauche ich über den Tag vielleicht 30 oder 40 % Akku.

Läuft nur die Trackaufzeichnung und das Handy bleibt überwiegend in der Tasche, hält der Akku meistens noch über den Tag durch.

Wenn bei Trackaufzeichnung UND (Track-)Navigation gleichzeitig (mache ich häufig) das Handy überwiegend in der Tasche bleibt, wird es trotzdem schon eng, da muss ich meistens irgendwann die Powerbank rausholen.

Wenn ich dann noch zusätzlich öfter auf die Karte schaue, mal kurz was im Internet nachlese und viele Fotos mache, wäre ohne Powerbank immer nach ein paar Stunden Schluss.

Noch zur Info, weil du  täglich 12 Stunden aufzeichnen willst: meine Erfahrungen basieren auf Touren, die i. d. R. 5 bis max. 9 Stunden dauern, während denen aufgezeichnet und ggfs. navigiert wird.

Ich würde bei einer Fernreisetour nicht auf die vielen Möglichkeiten von Locus verzichten wollen, um möglichst Akku zu sparen, und lieber eine größere Powerbank mitnehmen. Oder zwei kleinere.

Hi,
I just tried these days the RC11 as first version of my library v2. The migration worked fine with my 70000 points and  300 tracks. If the speed stays like this than I am more than happy - locus never was so quick with opening a folder. Sometimes it takes up to 10 seconds or longer here it was just a click and I was in the folder.

The new search behavior is awesome.

I did only play a bit with it because I installed it not on my regular used locus device. So currently I did not notice any problems. Only one litte design thing. The icons of the folders, points, Geocaches have been better on the old version here they are too small.

I'm looking forward for the release. Thanks for the great work  :)

Filtres: I know they've always been there, but I've never used them before and just don't understand how to use them. Is there a manual for this? Anyway, I've never missed it before.
...

Ok, now I've had a look at it. It's actually quite easy to understand in the previous Locus version.

In MyLib RC9 I find it confusing at first, how to use the filter manager etc., but I'm slowly finding my way around, at least in part.

However, the filter menu (UI) is not ideal. When the keyboard opens, the text field (where I type the text) is cut off.
EDIT: If I reconfigure my keyboard so that it's smaller, it works - but that's a stopgap solution. The text field should be completely visible even with a larger keyboard.

And at the bottom right is a thick blue vertical bar, which probably serves as a button for "OK" or "Apply".
EDIT: I have just noticed that in panorama mode the blue bar is displayed as a button labelled "FILTERN". So a problem in portrait mode with certain display sizes? SGS7 ist not sooo small. ;-)

Another thing I had forgotten:

I had always missed the option to search for folders. Now that you can create as many subfolders as you like, I think this is even more important. Previously you could only search for tracks and points, but not for folders.

If I have a complex structure (e.g. Tracks -> Travel -> Holidays -> 2023 -> Prague/Paris/Spain etc.), I would like to be able to search directly for the "Prague" folder, for example.

Quote from: joeloc on October 16, 2024, 14:42:35It would be great if Locus had a
"Always force latin letters"
option somewhere. When a name only has greek or cyrillic writing, you would simply render a 1:1 replacement with latin letters instead. That would be a great help in Greece and other funky non-latin countries.
Sorry to say, but there is no such thing as a 1:1 replacement for different scripts. Not even within Latin - did you know that the English "sh" is written in German as "sch", in Polish as "sz", in Hungarian as simple "s" and in some other Slavic languages as "š"? Or that the pronunciation of Oslo would be best approximated in English as "Ooshloo"? Greek may be reasonably doable, as afaik only one major language uses that script. But Cyrillic already has the same problem as Latin scripts: Special variants that have different transliterations depending on the country or even dialect.
This is a topic that linguists spent years on - I don't think it's helpful if Locus on its own implements some simplified (or "half-a**ed") solution...

New version with direct transfers has now been released.
Unfortunately I had to make a few more changes than planned at the last minute yesterday (updating some Google libraries, OSMDroid library, Locus API was also updated :-), etc.).

As I won't have time to program this week, I just took the plunge and hope that the library updates mentioned don't have any side effects.

Locus Map Track exports should now be very performant, as the track to be transferred is transferred directly as a Locus Track object (without file-based handling).

PS: Many thanks to Menion for the good advices.
