Hi druki. Thanks for the reply.

> The format of addressdata is not bounded to a language, but bounded to a country. You can see this if you compare addresses in USA, Australia, Great Britain, where English is the language.

Well, it is not...  Please have a look at the picture below. It's an address search result in USA.
On the left, android system language was set to English and address in English was obtained. On the other hand, on the right, the language was set to Japanese and address in Japanese was obtained. (By the way, Street in Japanese is wrong.)


I also tried the address search at the same point with different system languages. The results are:
system language -> address search result
Korean ->  Country/Region/City/Street in Korean
Chinese -> Country/Region/City/Street in Chinese
Czech -> Country in Czech, Region/City/Street in English
German -> Country/Region/City/Street in English
Italian -> Country/Region in Italian, City/Street in English
French -> Country/Region in French, City/Street in English

> Does the services (default=google) support different address fields in relation to the requested country and in the response?

I'm afraid but I didn't get the point of the question. Could you please explain more?

Could you make it possible to select the language of address search result by the Locus setting rather than by android system language setting?
In most case, address in local language is more useful than navive language. But for now, to get that, you have to change the language for whole android.

Could you please correct address search result in Japan?

I'm sending a sample coordinate by gpx file and its address search result shown in pictures.
Each picture shows the address search results by Locus and by Google Map together, and one is the result in English and the other in Japanese.
In both language, 'Post code' is missing and 'Street' is wrong.

The button 'Maps' shown in picture was 'Navigation' if I remember.
Isn't it wrong? It actually starts google navigation.

@menion: That's right. It's already there. Great!

How do you think an idea to have dynamic text labels? Basically name of each item has its translation in strings.xml.
The idea is to obtain translated text from there and to make labels changeable depending on language setting.
Well, this is not a request but an idea.

Locus Pro 2.14.1
Nothing is shown at the 'DESCRIPTION' of the Locus Store items.
It is sometimes seen for a second but disappears immediately.

May I ask to display current time somewhere on forum screen with the same time zone of the time of posts?

Hello silber1.

But S3mini: can not start shading. It always goes back to deaktivated.
Is there a special trick?

As I reported, this problem seems to happen only when both Test and Pro versions are installed.  Workaround below works for me.

a) enable/disable Shading maps by using Quick switch, but not through the settings menu.
b) enable/disable Shading maps through the settings menu of Pro version. The setting in Pro version also takes effect to Test version.

[20.8.2013 - Locus 2.14.1.5]

20.8.2013 - Locus 2.14.1.5

I've noticed one more thing.

GPS is forcibly turned off when the device is physically rotated to change screen orientation in GPS/Compass screen.

[20.8.2013 - Locus 2.14.1.5]

20.8.2013 - Locus 2.14.1.5

It works very well without big problem. Here is what I've noticed.

- GPX version appears not only GPX but also KML, CSV, TCX, DXF.
- The question mark button on the right of the GPX version doesn't work.

- If both Pro and Test are installed, Enable/Disable Shading maps from Settings doesn't work on Test version. It only works on Pro and affect for both Pro and Test versions.
- Enable/Disable Shading maps by Quick switch works well for both Pro and Test independently.

- Shading itself works very nice for all online/personal/vector! Thanks!

@ta-ka: please read here viewtopic.php?f=35&t=3305&p=22848#p22845

Thanks and sorry. I didn't notice the discussion.

I have one more question about unit. Pressure unit of weather.
Is 'mBar' commonly used in the field of weather forecast in Europe?
In Japan, it was replaced with 'hPa' long time ago and 'mBar' is no longer used.
Of course they are mathematically the same.

I've just noticed that 'nautical mile/h' and 'knots' coexist in [Localization] -> [Speed units]. Why?
They are the same by definition, aren't they?

I confirmed improvement of the date format for both. Looks very nice! Thanks.

@menion
Thank you for the reply to the suggestions of the texts/translations.
I, of course, agree with and respect your decision.
