Thank You for the update ^^

[Rob]

heeelp,
after installing new version (1.16) all my tracks and categories disappeared. When selecting TRACKS --> error: no tracks in categories....use import feature or filemanager...
After importing from backup (puh - god sake) in existing or new category - seams to successfully imported, but when trying to open track in TRACKS  -same error message....

pls help !
Thx

Rob

EDIT: after deleting dbtracks.sqll at least I can import tracks again and display them. But, something is strange with my categories - independent where I import the tracks to, all categories show (0/0) and cannot click/tickmark on right side...
And when I import a gpx. file named e.g. route.gpx  it is imported but is shown as 19.009    ??
I know that in previous version everything worked fine.
I´m lost....
pls help what to do. At least I have all downloaded maps and tracks exported, so no real loss, but behaviour of LOCUS is strange now...

thank you menion, this is really nice.

[Menion]

Rob please, do you have some old files for tracks? may you send me it or probably also categories and one points file for test? Also I discovered critical error in creating empty track database ... so after deleting tracks file, it works correctly for you? interesting ..

[Rob]

Hi menion,
sent requested by mail to you.....

Yes, in another post I found the hint to delete the dbtracks in case of track-problems, this is what I did, and at least I can import and display the imported tracks again.
But I cannot show them within the correct category, they are in no category....

Let´s see...

thx

[Rob]

Hi menion, 
goooood news: everything fine again with this new 1.16.1 version. I copied both db..s back from backup and - voila - I got all my tracks back.
Thx much for your support!

Rob

[Menion]

you're welcome, thanks for good news ...

[Rob]

Am I the only One with this issue?
Then it should be a question of my settings.
Can anybody help me pls?

when importing my old gpx tracks all "Umlaute"  ä, ö, ü, ...  are changed in strange letters.
I checked gpx  files with editor and names are correct. Codes are either ISO or UTF-8.
Any setting what I can change ?
Examples
 see below.

edit:  kml files are imported correctly

Yes please add a function that allows the user to turn on and off the track start and stop icons that cover the map (and the name of the track) . And the blue dots that are permanantly showing at the start and stop of each track gets kind of annoying. I have short and long tracks with my own added points along the track and it completely clutters the map and tracks. I have hundreds of tracks for the desolate and barrren area I am in. Alot of tracks connect with eachother branching off like a tree and the screen is just covered with white tabs everywhere, And I am running a 10" screen tablet. the new style of Icon tabs (waypoint and track names) with the white background just clutters the screen too much. (maybe an option to make the tabs transparent and only make the font visable maybe? because you can change the color of the font but not the background) I have been using a previous version of locus from about 6 months ago and was hesitant to update it, and I did yesterday but I think I should have waited. But your map application is still by far one of my favorite things to use.

[Menion]

may you show me screenshot of your over-fill screen please?

[superscout03]

see all the stuff, it covers alot of the tracks. you have an option to turn on and off point icons and labels but not for tracks. Some  of the tracks i will manuall create with the draw function. and it seems to add just too much to the map with all the labels.

[Menion]

wait, and you want to have visible these labels or not?

if not, just menu > settings > map > show labels

[superscout03]

i dont need all the labels visible, there are labes ontop of labels, just like you have the function to turn labels on and off for waypoints, there should also be the same feature for tracks.

[Menion]

but "Show labels" settings also affect start and end points of tracks ...
