Little update if you're also having problems with GPS reliability on Samsung S24 (or perhaps others), see https://forum.locusmap.eu/index.php?topic=9488.msg80515#msg80515 for my initial post:

I didn't find any setting in Locus to prevent this, so I solved it with a Tasker profile that turns GPS in Locus off and on again every min (configurable, of course). Works well. If you're interested, import attached file. Needs Locus Tasker plugin, of course.

eh, it already exists. Just uncheck all "Line", "Pattern" and "Outline" values in the track style.
Seems to work, but then it says "Style not defined", which is at least midleading...

I've been hoping for an "Add waypoint" option in the track editor for ages - not sure if we want the same thing, but perhaps both go together. I know, it's possible to add waypoints to a track, but they're not timestamped, they're more POIs. For example, "Hut" is a feature of the landscape and not really related to the track, but "Put on snowhoes here" is related to the specific track and thus the timestamps is relevant.

@slarti76
- improved system for interpolation/shading/etc. ... I'm looking forward to it.
During this year hopefully :)

Question:
Is there a way to jump to the location of the photos shown in the track view? I know, they're selected according to timestamps, but if they also have a location, it would be great to be able to jump there on e.g. long-click.
Or am I overlooking something?

smoother charts > this is also question to others. Currently, there is no filtration of chart values. Should I invest some time in it and try to apply a little more clever solution that will preserve the shape and cut the biggest peaks? For all chart types? I'm open to discussion ...
The way it's done in 1210 looks good to me. But I came across one problem recently: Sometimes, the SRT files contain nonsense, where data obviously oscillates between min and max integer, so -32.767km to +32.768km, which makes all charts display nonsense. Can you filter these out? At least in charts, but perhaps also for the map shading, because those sudden gorges are not natural, I fear...

Troubles & Questions / Re: Map overlay & Map shading
Last post by Menion - Today at 12:11:54
Hi,
this is hmm ... expected problem  :(.

To same memory, shading is "baked" into base map. When you place any non-transparent overlay over it, it simply covers not just the base map, but also the shading.

Troubles & Questions / Re: Map Providers in Locus 4?
Last post by Menion - Today at 12:07:24
Hello buergi,

app needs to have these config files in the default "mapsOnline" directory. Check app settings > Backup & filesystem > File system manager > Set custom sub-directories > Set "mapsOnline" directory. Do you have the same "media" directory set here?

Found solution!
I have to change "blend mode" in "advanced options" in overlay menu form disabled to my preferd mode.
