[Theme] Voluntary

Kona · March 23, 2015, 14:14:43

Hi,

Seem it doesn't load at about 1000m - 2000m view on my device. Not sure what zoom value is that.
Also I preferred red points then blue train icons.

Or dots change for icons when zoom in?

Sorry, zipfile was incorrectly formed. Corrected and uploaded in first post.
I've changed the zoom at which red dots change to blue icons in response to Kona's comment.
Also, changed rendering slightly for coniferous woods and for ferry routes.

Hello.

I still have the same problem as Kona with the current svg version of your theme (was working in the previous versions). It doesn't render the whole map. Maybe there are some icons or symbols missing?

Regards

In this case it would help, if you can zoom into the map and change to another theme, to find the missing symbol and please share the coordinates or a usable picture.

I don't understand this, but the zip file, which I had successfully corrected following Kona's post appears to have reverted to the previous version of its own accord. Unlikely, I know.
Anyway, I've re-uploaded a corrected one to the first post. Sorry for the difficulties.
In this version, there is an additional feature: railway stations are semitransparent, so that details can be seen in large station halls, for instance of London Victoria.

Thank you for the hint. It was just a guess and I don't know too much about vector themes.
I attached a picture. Hope that it's useful.
Regards

Edit: attached a 2nd screenshot with internalhhiking theme.

@Trullo Fetzer,

did you use the latest version of this theme?
I can confirm that it works, please have a look at my screenshot.

Re-downloaded again and deleted the voluntary folders before unpacking. Now it works! Thank you.

I have added style support for latest version of the Locus Maps app. You can choose Hiking, Cycle, City, Road, or Multi style when you select the Voluntary UK theme.

The City style is aimed at use in large cities such as London and has a less cluttered (and slightly faster) display at zoom levels 14 and below.

City style -- Road style

Also included in the zip package is Voluntary png which is another scalable theme but using png bitmaps rather than svg vector images, which conceivably might work better for some users (no style variations though) and Voluntary bugfix, which reduces the extent of unwanted rendering artefacts. Unfortunately this is not scalable and roads will appear too thin on high resolution devices.
Package can be downloaded from the first post in this series.

Latest versions with modifications for better compatibility with OpenAndroMaps from May 2015 available in the first post in this thread.

Kona · May 07, 2015, 13:24:52

Works great!

I've made use of Tobias' latest Lightning theme to produce Velocity for Locus, which is visually similar to the Voluntary themes but draws much faster. It's available in the first post in this thread.
Thanks as always to Tobias (and others).
