Locus Map / Re: [APP] - version 4.20.+ ( 11/2023 )

Quote from: Tapio on November 25, 2023, 13:41:01Thanks. Route planner route still leaking into main screen btw.
same here, no change, ~8s from exit route planner until the planned route is removed from map

@menion - this new Aspect map shading is quite interesting but could it be further enhanced with color saturation proportional to the slope? i.e. a very pale color would suggest a flatter area, and very strong color (like the current) suggest steeper areas. This would then combine the best attributes of existing Slope shading. At present even quite flat areas have strong color, perhaps too strong, and maybe defeats the purpose.

@tapio on a recent cycle tour through Cyprus I notice your theme is not working properly at a high zoom level in the Cyprus republic capital of Nicosia when using Open Andro Map. You can observe the map with your theme has details within a triangle that are correct, then outside that triangle only POI are displayed. Quite strange. OS Map and LM City themes (also Voluntary although not attached) are all working correctly, so 95% sure it is theme related. I have not seen this with other map areas, and I mostly use your theme by default.

Locus Map / Re: [APP] - version 4.19.+ ( 9/2023 )

4.19.0.9: it doesn't appear possible to delete/ edit the LoRouter Offline profiles? It was possible in previous versions. For example I don't need Skiing or Car profiles. Other fixes from 0.8 confirmed.

When I exit the Route Planner by tapping the Back button, the planned route is still displayed for a few seconds then disappears! see video

Now we have this new expanded Route Planner profile selection system, why are there only these 4 categories?You cannot view this attachment.

I've noticed on a few screens the left margin is truncated, for example:

@tapio - theme settings:
1) colored schools? not just "schools"?
2) gras --> grass

can you export the recoded track from each phone, then open as a text file, and check the frequency of timestamps? And check the settings are identical on both phones: settings > track recording > profile > distance & time intervals?

Simply turning off the device without further touching LM will do the job for me. Quite robust & reliable.

Quote from: DIDYM13 on August 27, 2023, 17:32:00Quite Menion !!
When I'm in navigation mode, I feel like "the map is on a turntable" and some guy is kicking it with a quick spin on direction changes.
@Menion @DIDYM13 - is this a compass smoothing issue? I have config.cfg hardware_compass_filter=50 which is the maximum value and I recall a long time ago this worked well, but when walking these days, or stopped as a cyclist, the map rotates far less smoothly than I remember/ expect/ hope-for with filter=50.

Regards the latest 4.18.2 online search results & sharing from Google Maps. For me, it's the same experience as reported in previous beta 4.17.2.4 @ https://forum.locusmap.eu/index.php?topic=8436.msg72716#msg72716. Although the release notes mention search improvement (maybe compared to 4.17.0??), so I didn't notice any change.

It sounds like an aggressive power saving mode on the S23. Many people report such experience. I'd investigate Android power saving settings.

Sharing of my own created "red push pin" from GMaps to LM4 now works - thanks! But sharing of existing GMaps POI doesn't work/ has different behavior to 4.17. Now LM4 Search will display the shared link as text, for example https://maps.app.goo.gl/zmQaPsNkSRVfqtDn6, and display "No search results" rather than moving to that point. When I open this example URL in my web browser, it displays the correct POI.

just rechecked - file download (4.17.2.4) OK for me; see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_404

Quote from: Andrew Heard on July 01, 2023, 09:42:15The latest LM4 beta 4.17.2.3 online search appears to have gone "backwards" regards to sharing with Google Maps....
The latest LM4 beta 4.17.2.4 appears to have gone further "backwards" or at least sideways? My simple use-case, which to be honest is just a hack workaround, because LM4 search is not capable (sorry guys), is
  • Google Maps app
  • long tap to create red push-pin
  • drag-scroll to find the Share option
  • tap Share
  • tap LM
  • now observe, even worse than in 4.17.2.3 LM displays a list of POI over 20,000km away
BUT with correct local address 1km away and no way I can find to re-position to that local address - "so close yet so far" ;-( Funny - at least the list items are sorted by distance ;-(

Google Maps app:

LM4 Online Search results after tapping the GMap Share button:

BUT I can confirm that a long tap in LM4 will also display the correct address:

The Google Maps website shows many results much closer than 20,000km, including the desired one, and which LM would also correctly find:
