4.33.0.5 maps button on tracks chart: the map is not correctly positioned if the chart is zoomed in: track list > track > chart > zoom+ > tap Map button (new) > tap + icon > observe map cursor is not in correct position.

Chart zooming suggestion: if the chart has been tapped (vertical line displayed) then maintain that position when zoom+ or zoom- is tapped. At present the position is often lost after the zoom.

Chart panning: seems a little unresponsive - swipe to side multiple times but often the chart does not move.

Chart panning: with zoom+ then pan too far to right (swipe left) and the screen (sometimes) becomes blank! Not sure 100% how to reproduce yet.

4.33.0.6 Locus Store > loading... forever and/or crash confirmed.

Smooth movement: detection of "stopped" is not perfect so still some unwanted rotation, but big improvement. If settings > GPS > Map rotation mode = GPS orientation only, then with only small or no movement, can all rotation be stopped? i.e. ignore GPS jitter of +/-5m?

The slopes in the new charts have always looked larger than the old chart. I checked one @ https://link.locusmap.app/t/wtkubf which is quite flat.

Locus Store working for me now

After further analysis of the thorny issue of the difference between WebPlanner & LM for display of slope - at a basic level LM is correct
lat        lon        alt (m) dist (km) slope (%)
-42.858939 147.326095 11.2    1.422     
-42.859009 147.326213 12.3    1.434     9.0
I guess LM is calculating slope (9%) point-by-point without filtering or averaging, whereas the WebPlanner must be doing some filtering and/or averaging to calculate 2.5%. I believe 2.5% is more realistic but there will, as in past? be endless debate for how it is done. I'd suggest at least the two platforms should use the same method & display similar charts though?

In my settings, for interest > GPS > Altitude manager > Replace GPS values + heavy filter, pressure sensor = off

Damn, another complication! All these bugs are caused by the update of the external libraries. In this case, it is the internal so-called "EventBus" that misses updates for 3+ years. It no longer works correctly with the most recent Android tools > another big modification is ahead because of this. For now, patched with a small hack ...

New version 4.33.0.8 (1211). Sorry, and thanks for the help!

Good changes. I still hope for easier ppssibilities to add embedded waypoints. I noticed this: in the attached screenshot we are in a track (trackpoint) context. I'd expect the "Add waypoint" button to add an embedded waypoint. But well, it adds a normal unlinked waypoint.

My wish is that we can add an embedded WP at this place. Maybe a small context menu, which allows to choose which type. Or, IMO better, a submenu checkbox option to "permanently" choose which type.

LoPoint photos are visible on my device.
The waypoint icons remain (very) large once you open them.
The Track Editor is working again.

I've forced the app to close, and now when I tap a LoPoint, the photos appear.

Quote from: Menion on Yesterday at 20:42:47Have you tried the latest version I've just published?

Given the number of problems reported here with the latest beta, I'll hold off for now.

However, there are now multiple reports in the helpdesk about the inability to edit routes. I answer them with a video of the workaround via the web planner.
