Route color during navigation changes and height profile problem

[Joachim Buhl]

Hello All

Today I drove the route from this thread.
http://forum.locusmap.eu/index.php?topic=4959.msg40844#msg40844

Navigation with voice instructions and display on/off works great.
1. But after around 2/3 of the tour, the route to follow changed color from normally red to very transparent and I can hardly see the small black arrows to find my way.
Explanation:
I setup my navigation route to be red with 50% transparency. Normally the route changes to a higher transparency (100%?) behind your current position on the route (Not in simulation mode with deactivate GPS, right? => Bug, on other tracks it does, see thread 3 below).
I my case suddenly the route in front of me changed to high transperency and cannot be seen anymore.
Maybe it results from the fact, that parts of my route are overlapping and driven twice?

Does anybody know this issue?

EDIT: Possible explanation. The route is merged from two routes after each other. Between the end of the first one and the beginning of the second part there was a gap ("gaps allowed" during merging). In simulation the route is highly transparent after this gap. Even after filling the gap the problem still persists.

EDIT2: See this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XEcTati-0EU
There is also something strange in simulation. See the red color above the cursor. The color of the track changes parallel to the movement of the cursor. And after reaching the gap it goes on from the gap (end of video below the direction arrow).

2. At the end of the tour (3h) my smartphone responds very laggy in Locus on all inputs. It seems that something accumulates during the tour and slows down Locus. Maybe the recording of the tour.

Does anybody know this issue?

3. And the height diagram in the dashboard is not working properly. At the beginning of the tour and also at the beginning of a navigation simulation no black dot is appearing. After a few km it does appear, but than it has an offset to the real position on the profile...

Problem 1 and 3 seams to be a problem of the route file.
I have another track here where the height profile is working from the beginning and the color "behind" the current position is also changing in simulation mode and there is no track color anomaly at all. See:

I reimported the TCX file (buttged.tcx) and all problems are gone.
Height profile works from beginning, track color changes behind current position and whole track in front is coloured correct.
Seems to be a bug in native track/route data of Locus.
