Troubles & Questions / Re: Suddenly older offline map...
Last post by Jochy - Today at 08:50:28Quote from: Alexandra on Yesterday at 21:59:45Hi,
I'm also using the theme Hike & Bike (Wandern & Radfahren) for all my LoMaps.
The issues don't only occur at the borders/mix between old and new maps, but also for the old maps alone.
Regards,
Alexandra
That's true. I deleted all.maps but Austria and the problem didn't go away.

Locus Map / Re: Re: [APP] - version 4.32.+...
Last post by Diddi - Yesterday at 22:35:01Since some versions the library is damn slow
I have some Geocaching folders..one of them includes 10.000 Caches.
I have to wait seconds, just to open it. Filtering and oder stuff lasts about 20 seconds. Often der percentage line increases up to 300 percent while waiting.
Some times the app crashes and says "wait" or "end" the app

Last post by bitti - Yesterday at 16:32:53Thanks @Menion!
Although the map theme isn't written by me, I was able to convert it, and it now works (it required some extra tweaks to render properly).
But if the app now requires the theme to be 100 % compatible to be imported, it would be nice to get an error message if that's not the case...

Nemožné na počkání, zázraky do 3 dnů!
Vidím, že tady to funguje stejně dobře jako dřív!
Díky.
(Určitě se ozvu i s dalšími
podobnými podněty, jen co LM4 prozkoumám trochu víc.)

Last post by Menion - Yesterday at 12:42:51Hello @bitti
the recent Locus Map 4 version dropped support for a very old MapsForge V3 map themes. So now, also old V3 maps require a new themes with "version 4+". Maps and themes are your own creation?
If so, you should be able to use the script we provide here, or simply update the theme on your own. Now it has to be 100% compatible with official MapsForge documentation. Otherwise, suggest contacting the maps & theme author to adapt to these changes (if not yet adapted).

Last post by bitti - Yesterday at 12:22:19Hello,
I've just recently migrated from Locus Map Classic to Locus Map 4 in November, so forgive me if some of my problems are caused by user confusion. When I migrated, everything went well and I was able to use Locus Map 4 normally. However, after one of the most recent updates, the custom map of Finland I'm using hasn't worked (shows just gray background). I'm pretty sure this has to do with the custom map theme my custom map requires. If I reimport the custom map theme, it seems to go ok (Locus map shows a dialog about the theme and says it was imported succesfully). However, there's no place I can select the import theme. What's even weirder, when I choose the map in the the map selector, it shows "Hiking and cycling" under my custom map's name and the name of my custom theme under the "LoMaps Online" map. If I try to use "Map themes" under the "Map tools" menu, I get that no maps with themes are active.
How should I proceed in solving this problem?

Thanks for the log. Unfortunately, there are just some generic errors that most probably do not caused crash of the app. Hmm, this is complicated. May you please try to create a big system log with this method right after the crash happens? Ideally, register a time when this happened.
@balloni55
this is very interesting. Until a few months ago, all crucial features required "All the time" permission. And a few months ago, I've changed the system for the track recording a little, so this one now DOES NOT require this permission.
But all other features that may run in the background > guiding, Live-tracking, POI alert, stabilised GPS and probably some others, require "All the time".
@Manuel
may you please post me a screenshot of these problematic screens? Thanks.

Troubles & Questions / Re: Suddenly older offline map...
Last post by Jochy - Yesterday at 10:55:12Quote from: Menion on Yesterday at 09:38:17Hi guys,
thanks for the bug report, and sorry for these complications.
Firstly > are you using our internal themes? Just open the left side "Map-screen content" panel and under the selected map, confirm you are using one of our internal LoMaps themes.
There should be a problem with mixing very old maps (version 3, 5+ years old) and the new V4 maps. Really, the best solution is to update the maps.
Anyway, if you confirm, you use one of these themes and still problems appear, I'll try to look if there is something I may do with it, not to force you update the maps.
Sure. I'm using "Hike and Bike", as you can see (in German it's Alle Funktionen -> Karten und Werkzeuge -> Thema der Karte): "Wandern und Radfahern" means hike and bike.
. It's true, it seems like my newest map (Malta) works in a normal way. However I don't see why I should update maps I hardly use like Italy North or Germany.
