hmm, this whole think about track recording has one problem. Track recording is by me only some bonus function in Locus. Another screen with track recording stats or graphs takes some time to create and I prefer give this time into maps or some extensions of maps. What you think about this ... I'll look again on integration of My Tracks. You can actually display My Tracks tracks on locus map. It's already possible. When I do some more, like ability to record and manage tracks directly from Locus, will it be enough?

hm interesting, I noticed troubles with running AR on 2.1A and lower and also some troubles with azimuth of camera, so wait for new version please, I have to fix AR addon a little

look like very serious problem. I'll have to look on it closely in next few day. Anyway guys, may you look into locus/logs directory and check if there is any error file? May contain something that should help me ...

 thanks

do you have phone in czech? App have no internal mechanism to switch languages. It set automatically language by your system.

hmm, "actual" news are here ... http://locus.asamm.cz/?page_id=29

about translation, Locus is already in Czech, English, Korean. Slovak users unfortunately see Locus in English. one guy is already trying to translate into slovak, but it will take a time. if you know anyone who would sacrifice some time to slovak translate, it's welcome

Hi,
  no you're not missing anything. I thought that this feature no one use, so I don't get too much time to it, to create it perfect. So, you told that switching works fine, OK, so I added at least this:
when you select "Guide on" .. guiding will be enabled on nearest point on track from you.

From you mean: When you have enabled GPS, it's you location, if not, it's center cross.

Try and let me know if need any improvements.

divím se pánové, že když už máte potřebu využívat Shocartí cykloserver mapy, že někdo z vás nestáhne celý balík do cca 2x2GB sqlite map a ten nenasdílí. Ušetřilo by to minimálně dost náročnou zátěž na cykloserver ...

hmm, I noticed some negative ratings on market but after almost hour of testing I cannot find any problem. Maybe it's any bug on A1.6? Did anyone have any starting issue? Please send me log from logcat Locus/logs directory (if contain any)! Thanks guys ...

[8.3.2011 - Locus 0.9.26.5]

• updated all languages from crowdin
• many few small improvements as usual ..

6.3.2011 - Locus 0.9.26.3, AR 0.0.2
Another bigger update.

• fixed problem with AR plugin on A2.1. hope ... so?

• added partial Swedish, Dutch and Slovak translation

4.3.2011 - Locus 0.9.26.1, Contacts 1.1.1, AR 0.0.1
So, this is bigger update. A discovered possibility to add some permission request into own library. This is reason for new contact addon version. Otherwise there is no need to update this addon, or anyone have any "Contact" request? When you install this addon and then Locus itself, you should now see permission request also on this addon. Same is with Augmented reality addon. I want to prevent of usage by another 3rd party app without you knowing.

And please. I know about any problems on Galaxy TAB and Track recording which I want fix. But when you discover any other, create new topic in Troubles section and help me fix this. Thanks

• new Augmented reality addon - first try
• improved NMEA record. Check settings
• when you click on track - guide on, guiding will start on nearest point

3.3.2011 - Locus 0.9.25

• new version released on market, testing version with My Maps and AR (maybe) come tomorrow... (if you install app from market and you used previously testing version and have My Maps or AR button on right panel, crash is not a bug in app, just missing permissions. Wait for next testing version)

there is actually no way how to do this. In this topic we discuss about developing such a tool ...

ah, my mistake, I'll fix this ..

anyway, question on you is mainly if this system is usable. It's easist what I can do. I can add some setting also but this at least for me looks good ...

Hmm I didn't noticed this. Try to convert source ozi files if you have them. There also can be problem in image cutter If so, send me please some small map and I'll try to fix this ...

I never worked on sqlite, and after I go though the usage of it, it seems that if you have a zoom level which across several db files, you need to have multiple connections to query for that zoom level and consolidate the result sets together. This is not very efficient is it? Is there any chance to split db files based on x instead of z? This of course depends on your querying needs on Locus, I dunno how you query the files of course  :lol:

Btw, I'm looking at the MOBAC source code and seems I can add a new atlascreator impl, although I guess MOBAC authors will not be too happy on that because I saw them rejecting your new format requests on their forum... :oops:

Hmm, i don't think is unefficient to hold more connections at once. As wrote mmcyclo, there is no speed issue with actual system and I don't see reason, why this should be wrong. But I'm not and database expert. Anyway, splitting by Z (zoom) looks for me as best idea, and also easier to implement.

About MOBAC, yes I looked at this also but they, as you read, do not agree with adding support for big maps, so it's up on us

Anyway, nice photos on homepage ykf

mmcyclo: I don't know exact value. It's question on any experienced Linux user who know limitations of this platform. But I expect limit at 2 147 483 648b

Oki, try converter. It works for my old Ozi Maps. I don't know if anyone use it but I founded useful to upload my work here ..

about arcgis format. May you send me some very little file? I want to look at it how it looks. Thanks ...

hmm, I added your map into My Maps account, loaded it in Locus (testing version of course) and all works perfectly!!

nice work scinkk

edit: only some accent on stations is corrupted, expect that this is Locus mistake, ach ...
