Quite old topic

- united behavior with the Route planner
Feel free to convince more people that old behavior was a lot better. But as usual, this will lead to different personal usage > extra settings to satisfy all  ::)
Well, I wouldn't mind an expert or INI file setting. Alternatively, give me waypoint editing/removing/adding in track editor and I'll be happy. ;) That one definitely has more interest than the one above:

Anybody else have the problem that track overview icons in the track lists aren't created correctly anymore. Whatever I do to refresh it, there's only ever the track, never a map. The overview in the track details is perfectly fine.

I have the same, but only if the route leads across national borders. In this case, the background map is not displayed, only the route.

Noticed something weird with Map Shading, look at the screenshots:

  • Zoom 12 (200% here): Looking nice and detailed
  • Zoom 13 (also 200%): Huge loss of detail
  • For comparison Zoom 12 locked, but zoomed in once to 400%: Looks much better than Zoom 13, even though same area as Zoom 13
What's wrong here? It's a shame the nice map shading gets lost when zooming further in. Obviously not a problem of missing data.

Overview icons: there are always some problems with them ... hard to simulate as I need an exact track and the same vector maps like you have.

Map shading ... this is a result of performance optimization I made a long time ago. It reduces the number of interpolated points for shading to half at zoom level 13+. Agree it's detail is quite reduced. I may change this parameter now, but I've rather added it to my "to do" list and check it later with some performance tests.

Hi

Since the last update, my new tracks can't generate thumbnails with map rendering. The old tracks with thumbnails get their thumbnails wiped if i make any update on track, like change line color, for example.

Everything was ok in early october, but after ver 3.49+ this problem started....

Tried to change the map from locus to open andro maps but the problem is still there...

Any help will be welcome

Thanks

Same with me... any solution?

Thx, will check out.

As rods wrote, I also think this is not just the usual "sometimes it doesn't work", but it got worse. Didn't try replacing existing yet, don't wanna lose them ;) But for new/changed tracks, it never works anymore.

Thanks balloni, you are correct!

The missing overview is interesting. I was sure I've fixed this ... thanks, I'll look at it (should be anyway solved automatically over time, maybe tomorrow :) )
