Settings- file system - optimise: instead of hiding, can I suggest it be just disabled, or maybe even better, msg box explaining no optimisation is currently required. At present you don't know whether you are in correct group of settings.

New style for track highlighting - I see no change to track style when I tap/ select? Expected?

- No extra function button.
1px/2px combi or 2px/4px combi.
The minimum trackwidth at the trkpt locations should be 2(4) px.
Set trackwidth 1 px. As a result the trackpoint dots are shown.
A 1 px linewidth is very small, probably better as 2px/4px.
Example image. Garmin Mapsource. Black trackline, black trkpt dots.

@Gerhard57
gaps in chart > not sure why this happens for now. I'll be watching it, but seems to be a bug, thanks.

@Graf Geo
smoothing > this is on discussion. Maybe some advanced settings later  ;)
position marker > thanks, I'll think about it
zoom buttons > hmm, I'll think about it. But even if added, control should still remain as is - after zoom, tap to select location is needed, no swipe
missing elevation > probably selected "Time" for X axis here

@Mick FU
yellow highlight > it was not by default yellow. App took the main color of the track and colored it in inverse color. This caused a lost of coloring and also does not guaranteed, track will be perfectly visible. This solution should solve both problems.

@Tapio
laggy charts > I know, long tracks are laggy when zooming. Complicated and not easily solvable for now, sorry.

difference between apk > there should be some I believe  :)

Quote from: freischneider on Yesterday at 06:58:20I think the option to choose your own frame color is a bit over the top. Very few people will actually do that.
The zoom buttons aren't really a problem, but in practice, you don't usually look at the chart that closely when you're on the go. The people I know always do that later, on the couch or at a café.

I use the elevation chart on my long trekking tours (up to 2000 kilometers) very often to plan the daily tours and the tent places. Therefore, the buttons are very important for me in case of rain or cold weather or in a harsh terrain/environment using trekking poles. Gestures almost not usable with poles and often don't work on a wet display.

1209 & 1210 APK files have same signature, ending 307FC53. Expected? I can't see any other difference between the 2 files. Solid Explorer doesn't show exact #bytes.

4.33.0 / 1210
like the improved charts.

track line style:
currently we don't have a line style which marks the track points of a recorded track or? My track is partially precise maybe due to the used profile-settings. I always see the track-line but never its points with markers as line-style-option. Would love to see this improvement, currently it's always a guess to identify the line-vertices and don't want to switch to the trackpoint-panel.

smoother charts:
as you mentioned, smoothing signals is about filtering and a typical topic in signal processing. Often moving average or Savitzky-Golay-filtering is used, eg. https://de.mathworks.com/help/signal/ug/signal-smoothing.html. Don't know if it makes sense to use some on-the-fly-processing or to add some simplified representatives.
But maybe you already used this in the past in LM.
Maybe a button or a setting-option is useful to generally switch to smoother charts. I personally prefer smoother charts, "noisy" is always somewhat disgusting.

idea: make the white chart-background transparent to see the map :)

Just found a strange map glitch.
