Addition of mileage display and number of hours in the folder display in LM4. If this did not affect the display speed, it would be a suitable replacement for the ODO of the cycling computer.

LM4 3.45.1.1 charged
route planner

  • > settings > 'allow edit of navigation points' - my appreciation, Thanks. Works like a charm. Reg. option-name - I was not sure and had to search twice - the (necessary) discussion about shaping- and via-point makes me think those are navigation 'points' (the real ones though) as they are used as points defining the navigation in planning. Was expecting option-name  incl. 'navigation hint/on hover/label' sth. like that..just as feedback, doesn't really matter though

  • see pics attached - to reach the next S-train nearby or the one of the next village I evaluated a 3km-short route I would take via a small kick-scooter  > route menu > Statistics: Estimated travel time. Something around 10-14km/h (or maybe in-head-calculation 2/3*20km/h) would match, so I used the biicycle-profiles, short and easy route, mostly downhill - see below the evaluation of 3 profiles all with 10km/h but different up-down-strength. I don't know inside-details of the profiles and calculation, but here 'Family crawling' would be 1st which is astonishing..

edit: used pics with smaller dimensions, LM4-version missing

I have tested the lm4 locus versions several days. Now in 3.45.1.1 I can't zoom out, lower than 46% is not possible. Also the main town names are too little now. I use the LoMaps.
In the parallel Pro version all is normal.

I'll be watching mentioned two problems (missing photo icons in point detail & "no base map" label in map content) because I'm still unable to simulate it :/. In the worst case, I'll add some logging messages to the Alpha version and let you know.

@balloni55
thanks for the video. I believe you see these folders :), but I'm more curious how to get these points into this folder and how it's possible you see this folder name in one version and not in second, weird. This "invisible folder" is for storing points attached to tracks or some temporary data, but the app should definitely not display its name like in your case.

Grid: work in progress

@Žajdlík Josef
this idea (nice one) definitely belongs to my dreamed work: tracks/folders statistics :)

@T-mo
interesting problem with computed times ... may you send me a start > end coordinates so I may try it as well?

@ADiet
- hmm, zoom below 50% never worked (at least not without some special settings).

I checked again the problem with zooming. It seams that only zoom level 16 is available, the percentages are from 46% to 1463%. In the normal pro version I can use all zoom levels.
This and the little town names are only seen in this actual beta version.

This more looks like an enabled "Zoom lock" feature.
Zoom lock is a little bit hidden in the recent version. The best is to add it manually to function panel.

Thank you, this is the solution.

A few days before I switched the "Screen lock auto" in expert settings on. This was useful, but not while track recording. Then the screen locks every time, when the display go's on.
Therefore I switched off the automatic lock. But this do not work properly, it seams so.

So what about new Alpha version 3.45.1.2 ;)

Interesting changes
- attempt to decouple the LoPoints system, so now it may be enabled independently on the base map. I see currently the only limitation: Locus needs to know about this POI database. For this, it needs to be "attached" to any vector map (same as now).
- improved coordinate grid & added support for the UTM grid (visible in case of enabled UTM coordinates).

LoPoints. What does it mean to connect a database to a map? I tried to rename the .db file according to the OSM map, but Locus still can't find the database. Viz.csr.
