Good news: After lots of hours research, contact with different institutes across the country, quality checks etc. there's for the first time a high-quality DTM of the whole United Kingdom

https://data.opendataportal.at/dataset/dtm-united_kingdom

For about 75% of England, Wales, Northern Ireland fine LIDAR source data available, Scotland
unfortunately (beside river valleys and coasts) is not covered as well. For the areas not covered with fine LIDAR-data I used OS DTM-50m which is wider gridded but also based on LIDAR source data and hence especially in wooden areas more accurate than SRTM data.

Enjoy the new DTMs of the UK!

Hi Menion, I have a proposal to modify the display of warnings and warnings. I don't like the current version, when the warnings are displayed twice. Please try to discuss this. This is because if the backup fails, for example, and you are on an expedition somewhere, the icon now unnecessarily overlaps the map.
soucasnostinformace.jpg - current status for informative announcement
navrhinformace.jpg - proposed version in Google style
soucasnostvarovani.jpg - current status of warning notifications, the icon is shown unnecessarily twice
navrhvarovani.jpg - an icon that nobody will miss should be sufficient

CZ:
Ahoj Menione, měl bych návrh na úpravu zobrazení upozornění a varování. Současná verze, kdy se varovaní zobrazují dvakrát se mi moc nelíbí. Zkuste se o tom prosím poradit. Důvodem je i to, že pokud selže například odesílání zálohy a jsi někde na výpravě, ikona nyní zbytečně překrývá mapu.
soucasnostinformace.jpg - stávající stav pro informativní oznámení
navrhinformace.jpg - navrhovaná verze ve stylu Google
soucasnostvarovani.jpg - stávající stav varovných oznámení, ikona se ukazuje zbytečně dvakrát
navrhvarovani.jpg - ikona, kterou asi nikdo nepřehlédne by měla postačovat

What I'd like is for the map to recenter on the appropriate Via Point or Shaping Point when I tap its icon in the new Route Planner - or it could be an option on the triple dot overflow menu. Or is there already some other way of achieving that?

First impression:
https://gph.is/g/ZPJNoDV

I use auto-hide for all panels, I like the full map, I do not like too much the button of menu visible while all is hided, see attachment.
For my case of use the menu button gives access to something I do not usually need while focusing on the map, It'd be more convenient if it show up with the double touch of the map as the other hided menus.

Nice to read it Jonny :). I also have problems to work with recent public Free/Pro version now  ;D

I spend an unfortunately unbelievable amount of time (more than a month) on creating united screen for points and I'm still not perfectly satisfied with it  :(. Anyway, I'll try to close most of remaining problems and generate a new Alpha version hopefully during this week.

Version has expired today ... and  changed to Free Version.  :'(
Is there a new Alpha planned?

I use it on my tablet ... and to be honest I'm now so familiar  ;) with this version that I really miss it.

Die gekauften Pros werden weiter mit gewissen Updates versorgt - die Lizenz bleibt ohnehin gültig.
Mittel- und langfristig wird mehr Innovation aber in der Abo-Variante stattfinden. So mein Verständnis der Ansagen und Diskussionen aus letztem Jahr.
Ich habe Pro gekauft und werde irgendwann wohl auch auf die Abo-Version gehen, wenn die Unterschiede interessant werden.
In beiden Fällen keine Kosten die einen umbringen, auch kombiniert nicht, denke ich.
Das Asamm-Team muss ja von etwas leben - jetzt, und auch in Zukunft. Und zahlenmäßige Expansion kommt irgendwann zum Erliegen. Der Punkt scheint erreicht oder absehbar.

@ freischneider
You're right, we're in the English-speaking world. ;)

also Wole, bitte bei zukünftigen Fragen auf deutsch das deutsche Forum benutzen ;D
Quotewürde mich interessieren, wie die Ablesbarkeit bei Sonnenlicht bei Deinem Gerät ist
ich hab das XCover S4 erst seit ca. 3 Wochen und bin voll auf zufrieden!
Ich hatte ja lange Jahre ein Motorola G3 fürs Wandern Geocachen und Radeln, da hat sich aber nun der Akku verabschiedet...
Nach ausgiebiger Suche und Vergleich von sogenannten "Rugged" Geräten bin ich dann mit meinen Anforderungen beim XCover gelandet.
Das Display ist super hell und die Anzeige ist sehr kontrastreich, sodass beim hellen Sonnenlicht die Karte gut erkennbar ist.
Die GNSS Empfangsqualität/ Genauigkeit bei ungünstigen Bedingungen (dichter Wald/ Abschattungen) ist sehr gut :D

No worry, I do not plan to remove it ... just my head needs some time to validate that it is a good perspective method on how to do it. But yes, most probably I'll add few more parameters over time and tell Michal to wrote some blog post about it :).

was heist das jetzt genau. Die Beta die es mir da anbietet, ist das ein Update der Alpha ? Oder ist das ein Beta update der des alten Locus und muss es ignorieren ?
die Beta ist eine "verbesserte" PRO als Test vor dem offiziellen Puplish, welche interessierte Benutzer als Versuchskanninchen testen können um den Entwicklern mehr Sicherheit zu geben.
Wenn du weiterhin die Alpha behalten möchtest, darfst du dieses Update nicht machen!
Alpha updates werden ja von menion direkt im entsprechenden Beitag als apk angeboten

I'm usually rather speechless. I think it is quite common that nobody looks what an app/the os is capable of.
@tapio: You're right. But for such "normals" and for these friendly "nerds",  discussing in this group, it should be a win, to get a comfortable using interface on the one side, and a high featured app on the other.

If I'd understood right, menion said, the extraordinary features won't be forgotten,  the main application-lookout is the aim of the first discussion.

For me, it is diffucult, to remark a "red/common thread". I would like to get a clean map view, only added with a few (i.e.2) buttons for main features. The rest could stay in buttom/sidebars, or floating buttons (!), configurable and hideable.
Given that fact, it would be interesting to see the result of the voting from menion's earlier post. https://forum.locusmap.eu/index.php?topic=6817.msg57917#msg57917

My one concern over the increasing complexity of what can be done with and to Locus is simply that it presents a large raft of perplexing options to any new user.
I think you need an initial simple interface, and as @tapio says, maybe some ui presets.

I didn't follow the whole discussion. As for the bhttons and toolbars, I'm all for maximum flexibility, ie every function can be everywhere. A good default setup for newbies, a good UI for configuration, maybe Ui presets. just my preference.

I agree, stable version is in a good shape, quite perfect.

1 the side panel width and the bottom panel height is too large and covers too much map.
Suggestion, if the panels should be displayed permanently, they should be narrow, if the panels are displayed temporarily, they can be displayed larger.

2 with shifted map center the zoom buttons cover the previous route

3 when track record is on, the buttons overlap

merry christmas to all
