Locus Map / Re: Re: [APP] - version 4.33.+...
Last post by Graf Geo - Today at 09:45:25I have to agree with the others on this one. The decision to integrate the options that used to be listed in the grid into the search as a narrow scroll bar is unfortunate.
When I want to set a waypoint or reposition one, I practically never search for a town. Yet the most recent search results take up 90% of the screen and I have to scroll in the narrow bar at the top... Sure, I can sort the most frequently used options to the left, i.e. at the front, but only two or at most three options are visible without scrolling.
When I want to navigate, the cities or towns I'm looking for may well be relevant, but they don't necessarily take 90% priority. Locus is primarily an app for outdoor activities and less of a car navigation system.
Perhaps the screen could be split 50:50. In the top half, the options could remain as before in a grid or as a vertical list, so that as many options as possible are immediately visible, and in the bottom half, the search results.
Incidentally, search results can only be deleted one at a time, and the next one from the history then appears, so that I always see 5 entries... Can't they all be deleted completely at once?

ah,so the edit of coordinates > this is a big change in recent Beta versions. We completely removed the old "Grid" screen and integrated all into the search screen. No functionality should be lost, and all features are directly in the top row. So the edit of coordinates, projection etc., is all at the top row.
@menion
the old function was great. All in one view no scrolling that was fine. The most important for me "clipboard" and then "guide too" I didn't find yet.
Puh this change I don't understand from UI side. Maybe it has technical reasons but this is not helpful and I really don't like it. Sorry for saying that.

[CZ&SK] - diskuze o Locusu / Historicke ortofoto
Last post by tichym - Yesterday at 21:39:54Prosim pekne, co delam spatne? Dlazdice ortofota se prekryvaji. Mam pocit, ze se to tyka EPSG 5514, protoze kdyz zvolim tento kod u sluzeb, ktere maji moznost volby je vysledek obdobny. U historickeho ortofota se ale nabizi jen 5514. Dekuji.

Last post by ThomasD. - Yesterday at 18:20:13"Rumschleppen"? RAM-Mount am Motorrad oder Ebike regelt.
Und Lebensdauer des Akkus? Ich habe hier ein Sony Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact. Aus Baujahr 2014, das mir einige Jahre auf meiner Honda Transalp (mittels Bordstrom) gute Navi-Dienste geleistet hat. Auf meine CRF300L passt es jetzt aufgrund der Größe leider nicht mehr und dient als E-Reader. Akku? Keine Probleme. EOL seitens Sony war übrigens mit Android 6 und dank XDA-Developers läuft auf dem Sony ein Lineage OS18.
Falls mein Doogee irgendwann die Akku-Grätsche macht, schaue ich erstmal auf XDA, für welche Geräte es Custom ROMs gibt. Danach sehen wir weiter.

Last post by slarti76 - Yesterday at 16:20:28Quote from: slarti76 on Yesterday at 16:14:37Just noticed a minor bug: When searching for a point, a small arrow is shown indicating the direction to the point. It's shown in the list and in the point details when I click on the point. However, it's turned 180°, pointing in the exact opposite direction!I just realized this might be intentional, but I'd argue that's totally unintuitive: When I search for a point and want to quickly see whether it's east or west from my current position, not whether my current position is west or east from the point.

Also, for some reason the elevation is not shown, even though I definitely have the SRT data for this are (it's shown on the map when I hover over it.
