@gynta: as for the error code 50 - we have to wait until some official Android N version is available. If the error is frequent we'll add it in the error list.

Hi,

the Overlay article in the Manual was amended of the supported formats, thanks.

@gynta: Well, we'll see... I've updated Tapatalk as well so I hope no more forum posts will be missed. The issues you mention here will be fixed tomorrow

Ikony průjezdních bodů se skrýt nedají, zmizí pouze pokud průjezdní bod smažete - klik na bod > detail bodu > menu vpravo dole > smazat

@balloni55 thanks for notice. As I've written to gynta, this forum somehow stopped notifying me about new posts so I discovered your posts only now.

Corrupted SQLite article - Advanced parts of the Manual were not rewritten as in case of the basics and user guide - just slightly corrected language - we didn't consider this part of Manual crucial as very few of our users visit it. Nevertheless, the chapter has been revised according to your proposal.

Wording in the app dialog was changed shortly after Ian's remark.

first, thx for ignore me...

Hi gynta,

I'm very sorry for "ignoring" you but I didn't know about your post as for some reason the e-mail notification in this forum stopped working for me.

Icons - thank you for your notice. Nevertheless, let me explain - 99% of icons are generated directly from the ones used in the applications (.svg format) through some Menion's script into .png format. The rest is fetched manually either from third party devs, from the Internet etc. Some icons contain transparent padding, some don't. Wiki has quite limited options of image adjustment and we have not much time for tackling this, in our opinion very marginal problem of a few alignment issues. Anyways, I sort of repaired the two most visible ones that you posted in the PM. Thanks for understanding

Hi,

@passosk58: this is Locus Map forum, not Google Earth's, sorry.

@Bucky Kid: have you read this Locus blogpost >>? It's the only way how to get Strava heatmap in Locus. WMS is not possible as Strava does not provide WMS data source.

How to get PC files to a Genymotion virtual?
The only but also the most user-friendly way is utilization of an ADB plugin

= false information !

"The only" replaced by "One of". Thanks for noticing.

hiccup...fixed (needed a few ' ' because of differently rendered icon)

webservices - originally just a broken line - the link was common with addons and coapps. Anyway I divided it, looks better even if it leads to the same page

settings > folders - up, lower, bottom... I don't understand what's wrong?

@balloni55

I changed the "settings" structure in Manual to more "app-like" appearance. Hope you like it

[Je tedy problém, že když vytvořím trasu pomocí navigace v Locusu (ruční přidání trasy), tak se po trase nemůžu nechat navádět, ale pouze navigovat?]

Vytvořil jsem si trasu v Locusu po lesních cestách přes přidání nové trasy pomocí navigace (zdroje Yours a MapQuest) a nechal se po této trase navádět (pomocí TTS). Jednak Locus strašně málo mluvil, a když tak hlouposti, např. držte se v levém pruhu (byl jsem v lese).

Když si spustím navádění po trase z mapy.cz, tak Locus perfektně navádí - pomocí TTS.

"Specialita" s doporučením do pruhu uprostřed lesa je vlastností routeru MapQuest, s tím bohužel nic nenaděláme. Yours příkazy negeneruje, tudíž je dogenerovává Locus a ten ve svém "slovníku" doporučení do pruhů nemá. Četnost naváděcích příkazů si můžete nastavit v nastavení > navádění > pokročilé > počet upozornění, popř. zapnout již v tomto vlákně zmiňované "Upozorňovat na každý trackpoint"

Hi, if you have any ideas how to improve Locus, please post them on help.locusmap.eu and let other users vote for them. If they are found useful also by others, it will be implemented.

As for the default icon - Locus uses icon of the last used folder. Change icon of the folder or make another folder with different icon to save your points to.

Hi, at the moment it's not possible to combine "Navigate to" function with "Navigate along a route". Anyway, it's not a bad idea, I recommend to post it on our help.locusmap.eu and let other users vote for it. For now try a workaround - click the route,  click 'Edit on map', select the routepoint you want to be navigated to and convert it to a navigation waypoint - select something that strikes you as a reminder, e.g. "make a U turn " command. Then start navigation along the route as usual.

Problem 1: The map data is not perfect, so you do not get an instruction whereever you need it.
Problem 2: On each point you set, Locus places a "Zwischenziel"/"in between/going over point" and/or a "you have arrived at your destination" point.
So after routing your tour you have to rework it.
...
Therefore I started threads at the helpdesk:
http://help.locusmap.eu/topic/automatic-deleting-or-avoidance-of-creating-intermediate-goalszwischenziele-during-route-plannin
http://help.locusmap.eu/topic/quick-delete-navigational-point-option-in-right-arrow-menu
But nobody is interested.

How are you planning routes?

Hi Joachim,
we are listening, that's for sure

Problem 1 is regarding all outdoor maps and navigation data - none of them is 100% accurate and up to date. Therefore we are trying our best to make Locus as helpful as possible so that you can tackle this problem as best as you can.

Problem 2 - good point, I've notified Menion

"nobody is interested" - there are so many ideas on Locus helpdesk that their only chance to be noticed by the devs is number of their votes (sometimes it happens that Menion notices some of them directly and puts them right on his roadmap - not these two though. As I've written, I told Menion about them).

How do we plan routes? Pretty much the same way as you do. However, I'm reading the good old contour lines on map to predict elevation besides dynamic altitude on the cursor position. And I don't find "zwischenziele" so bothering to make me rework the routing . To be true, I prefer beep guidance and automatic display turn-on before direction change when on bike. Voice navigation is better when hiking.
