The Elements theme links to Elevate.pdf from a lnk file. That works for me in both Locus Classic and Locus v4, so it still is possible. I think that's what you are wanting to achieve so it's probably worth working from there.

I had 3 crashes on vacation with the new version. But have no crash report.
It always during navigation. The first time the screen was off. Since no turn-by-turn directions came I turned the screen on to look. The screen wr like frozen and then Locus restarted. Then I noticed at the recording so that it has already stopped recording 10 min. before. So it froze in the background (screen off).

I had the same problem yesterday ... during recording and navigating.
No more move was possible ... and system asks to stop or wait for a non reacting process.

[Question:]

I've worked out that I can use a .lnk file to map multiple theme files to the same pdf legend file:

• my_theme_v3.xml
• my_theme_v4.xml
• my_theme_legend.pdf
• my_theme_v3.lnk = "mapsVector/_themes/my_theme/my_theme_legend.pdf"
• my_theme_v4.lnk = "mapsVector/_themes/my_theme/my_theme_legend.pdf"

The above would allow to have a version of the theme for v3 maps and a version for v4 maps. But both use the same pdf legend file. (Which menion originally said was not possible...)

I've tested this and it works with the latest release of LM.

Question: Can I rely on this usage of a .lnk file (is this an intended usage)?

I'd like to know that this will remain in future releases of LM before I start to do anything time consuming with theme/legend files.

I've just tried accessing the theme legends for various themes, and it seems the only ones that work are:
  - PDF legend in the same directory as the theme.xml with the same name, e.g. Elevate.pdf
  - Webpage listed in theme.lnk.

what doesn't work are any PDF legends pointed to by the theme.lnk with a different name. I've tried the above "mapsVector/_themes/my_theme/my_theme_legend.pdf" and also no path i.e. "my_theme_legend.pdf", both result in a toaster message flashing up saying "Invalid value: <content of .lnk file>".

has something changed? Can I no longer map several themes to the same/single PDF legend?

I have the feeling that the map construction has become slower. Especially when moving. Maybe it's related to the new option.

[CZ&SK] - diskuze o Locusu / Zobrazení odkazů (*.jpg, pdf.....

Last post by petegeo - Today at 09:19:31

Přeji pěkný den.
Nejprve popíšu situaci.
Ve Waypointech (v gpx) mám v linku href nastaveny cesty a názvy různých obrázků.
Topo ferrat, lezeckých cest a podobně. Všechno offline do úložiště v mobilu.
Doposud jsem to měl rozčleněné ve svých adresářích např. "/storage/emulated/0/Ferraty/Rak/TOPO/XXX.jpg"
Po kliknutí v Locusu na bod na mapě se mi zobrazil vedle názvu bodu malý obrázek a po rozkliknutí se zobrazil celý. Kdykoliv jsem se mohl při lezení rychle dostat na popis cesty.

Po poslední aktualizaci Locusu se zobrazuje místo obrázku pouze ikona prohlížeče (taková zeměkoule), a po rozkliknutí se zobrazí černá obrazovka nahoře s názvem a cestou k souboru.

Zkusil jsem po pročtení fóra přehodit cesty ve Waypointech a obrázky do adresáře
"/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/menion.android.locus.pro/files/Locus/data/media/photo/Ferraty/Rak/TOPO/XXX.jpg"
S tímto nastavení to zobrazuje správně tak jako dřív. Jenže ... Po vymazání "Dočasných dat" v Locusu, se mi smažou i vytvořené podadresáře v "/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/menion.android.locus.pro/files/Locus/data/media/photo/.." a všechny obrázky v nich.

Nyní dotaz:
Nevěděl by někdo, kam umístit obrázky, pdf apod.  tak, aby byly vidět v bodech na mapě (viz. popis výše) a zároveň aby se mi při promazání dočasných dat nesmazaly?

Předem moc děkuji za rady...

Troubles & Questions / Guide along a track

Last post by Sergio - Today at 07:29:33

Hi all, I am Sergio from Italy. I am a happy user of Locus since... I don't remember, years.
A question, is it possible to force Locus to follow a track in the right order (as created) of the points and not from the closest to the farther?

Thanx

Troubles & Questions / Slider for transparency like i...

Last post by tobser - Yesterday at 20:20:47

Hello everyone
 In the map program Osmand it is possible to overlay the normal map, e.g. the satellite view.  Once you have set this up, there is a transparency slider directly in the map view, so that you can switch back and forth very quickly between map and satellite by moving the slider back and forth.  From what I've seen so far, this doesn't work with Locus Map 4, or have I missed something?
 Many greetings to all
