[APP] - version 4.29.+ ( 4/2025 )

[Graf Geo]

New beta 4.29.0.7

Thank you! Good first impression.

Enable/disable highlighted LoPoints categories is a clear improvement.
But why are the added categories hidden in the panel when I deactivate the checkbox?
And it would be even better to be able to enable/disable each added category individually. But that's already a luxury wish. 🙂

Track overview thumbnails in My Library: the track line thickness is now fine there.
In the track preview images (for sharing) it is now a bit thin and therefore not optimally visible, but that's better than before, where it was much too thick. But I understand that it is difficult to find the right thickness in an image (jpg) because it is "zoomed in" when you look at it. See screenshot.
But because of me it can stay like this (for now).

I'll have a look at everything else. Have a nice weekend!

bug(?): when a copy of a track is made, the thumbnail for the new copy is not generated

This is true if the copy is saved in a different folder. But with a longpress on the (empty) thumbnail, this is created.

Menion, do you have plans in mind as for the new Lopoint display management? IMO user definable sets are heavily needed (obviously chosen poi depend on the situation) and of course someone 😁 will later want to see this reflected in the preset system (or Android Intent, or both) for the typical automation reasons.
Also, the offline Lopoints need this new system  as well.

Question and problem with highlighted lopois
what does the endless blue bar mean for some lopois?
after opening some lopois, the ones with the blue bar can no longer be opened, see screencast

@Graf Geo - longpress - sure, but shouldn't be necessary - surely thumbnail should always be in-sync with track info?

@balloni55 - the endless blue bar is an animation representing the "flowing water" ;-)

4.29.0.7
search > online > category > "Supermarket" > return map - OK
search > online > category > "Food & drink" > return map - but the new category is ignored, the slide up bottom panel still displays supermarkets
bug?
It is only when I tap the LHS <- button next to Supermarket that I can perform a new online search where the bottom panel is correctly updated

PS. in fact more complicated - each search produces a new instance of the slide up bottom panel which is over (hides) the previous search bottom panel - intended? I can't access the older panels "out of order" without tapping Back or the panel left button, so is this complexity useful?

@Andrew Heard:
I cannot confirm the first issue, it works correctly for me.

I don't understand your second problem, what do you expect?

In version 4.29.07 it doesn't let me select the Amazfit GTR4 watch as heart rate monitor. It happens on two mobile phones, Honor 200 and Xiaomi Mi 9.

@Graf Geo - there is only 1 issue. Sorry for any confusion. I've created a video that may help explain the problem easier. see https://youtu.be/u6wH6s9qMhQ. #seconds below in the video

• 02 - search for Toilets - OK
• 07 - now search for Supermarket
• 08 - observe bottom panel still displays Toilets
• 10 - tap panel Back button
• 12 - now search for Food & Drink
• 14 - observe bottom panel still displays Toilets
• 20 - tap panel Back button multiple times but taps are ignored

When I posted yesterday, the bottom panel names were correct although on-map POI not reflecting the category searches. 3 bottom panel instances stacked on top of each other.

• 21 - swipe down on bottom panel 3 times (most likely 3 panels for 3 searches) until map is fully visible

Poi highlight
The same categories are always suggested and if I want different ones I have to use the search.
It would be nice if the most recently used ones were suggested.
I like the idea of deselecting them individually.

I can't open the video because it's private.

But following the steps in your list I can't see any problem:

- search for Toilets - OK
- now search for Supermarket
- bottom panel now displays supermarkets
- tap panel Back button
- now search for Food & Drink
- bottom panel displays Food & Drink

Problem with LoPoints in the current beta

I have already written this in the helpdesk.

Numerous LoPoints cannot be opened in the current beta. These are mainly geographical areal elements such as parks, forests, protected areas, lakes, cemeteries etc. (see screenshot). The slide panel opens for a tiny moment and closes again immediately. In other words, that means all LoPoints that are linked to an area/surface. This does not happen with point objects.

The error does not occur in the release version 4.29.0 and in the iOS version and also not in the web planner.

Addendum: Out of curiosity, I tested a few previous beta versions: it still worked in 4.29.0.3.

I've been wanting to figure out the search for a long time. It doesn't work very well for me. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. For example:

Next problem that only occurs in the beta:

Searching for categories very often (not always) results in the orange error message (see screenshot) that there is no internet connection. Both with excellent WLAN reception and in mobile Internet. All other online searches work better, but even there it happens from time to time. It is definitely not due to the internet connection. I can stream videos, download huge files etc. without any problems.

This problem also does not occur in the release version 4.29.0 or in the iOS version.
