Troubles & Questions / Re: point popup?
Last post by Stranetribù - February 25, 2026, 09:38:04Yes, exactly, when you're riding a motorcycle, your hands are used for other things! 
If I set the icons to large, they cover the map; if I set them to small, they disappear, so I thought it would be nice to have an enlargement of the upcoming WP. Thanks!

Troubles & Questions / Re: point popup?
Last post by Menion - February 25, 2026, 08:58:54Hello,
do you mean open it automatically? This is not possible. You have to tap on the required point manually.
In the app settings > Points & tracks > Point label, you may enable the display of small labels "on hower" or "always".

Troubles & Questions / point popup?
Last post by Stranetribù - February 24, 2026, 16:36:45Hi, I started doing some testing with Locus and I'm a bit lost in the settings... I'd like to ask if it's possible to have a window open when you're close to a point, so you can see the large icon. Thanks!

Last post by Žajdlík Josef - February 23, 2026, 14:15:16The new route detail chart is great. I would also like to add a button to it: "show only graph and map". So that I can then move my finger along the graph to follow the map and check, for example, data about the slope of the track or the hills.

Last post by freischneider - February 23, 2026, 12:37:53Another idea is to add a small option, arrow, or ? to the height diagram to hide the other information. That way, I can view only the map and the diagram. Clicking on it again makes everything visible again. However, everything is visible again the next time it is opened.

Last post by freischneider - February 23, 2026, 12:31:37It's great for me. But I rarely need the height diagram. Images are more important to me. But still, here's an idea. Most sections have a small arrow on the right for more details. There could also be one on the left for less or hide. Only the heading for the section remains and the small arrow to show it again.

Last post by Graf Geo - February 23, 2026, 11:40:39A few thoughts and suggestions regarding the diagram in the track info panel:
As Tapio already mentioned, it is difficult to display both the map and the diagram simultaneously in a meaningful way. Currently, there are only three options:
Option 2 is particularly bad if you have activated the track gallery and/or the track title spans several lines. Then you can't see anything of the chart. Perhaps the track info panel could be made scrollable or allow more vertical positions so that the map and chart can be viewed simultaneously.
See image 1.
As I mentioned earlier, the chart is not always useful or necessary, and sometimes it just takes up space. The chart settings should include an additional option to "Hide chart".
The new chart settings (axes, units, etc.) are currently applied globally. They are applied to all tracks in all folders. In my opinion, this is not useful.
I would like to be able to choose how they apply:
In principle, this would be similar to the line colour settings. This could be included in the corresponding menus, see image 2.
These are just ideas and suggestions that I would like to put up for discussion.
As Tapio already mentioned, it is difficult to display both the map and the diagram simultaneously in a meaningful way. Currently, there are only three options:
- Map with track only
- Map and track info panel approximately 50:50 on the display, with the diagram too far down
- Track info panel covers the entire display, map is not visible.
Option 2 is particularly bad if you have activated the track gallery and/or the track title spans several lines. Then you can't see anything of the chart. Perhaps the track info panel could be made scrollable or allow more vertical positions so that the map and chart can be viewed simultaneously.

Last post by slarti76 - February 23, 2026, 09:14:56Quote from: Menion on February 20, 2026, 15:19:56@slarti76Already tried that during the tour, pretty sure it didn't make a difference, but I'll play around with it some more...
recording problem: try to switch Settings > GPS & sensors > Google services assisted location. You probably have this enabled (default), but it starts to cause a problems on some devices so give it a try and disable it.

Bei kiwix kannst Du zum Test Wikipedias bis 100 GB Größe (English, max) herunterladen als Stresstest (nur für den WiFi-Weg!) - geht auch kleiner :-)
Dann verstehen wir ein wenig mehr.
Ich kann über WiFi und mobil die LoMpas stabil herunterladen, auch die 2GB-Varianten
