I'm posting this here for now rather than on the helpdesk, as this version is still being further improved.

In version 4.35, a new dialogue box was introduced for selecting the folders from which geotagged media are displayed. The advantage of this is that you can now select any folder via the system file manager. However, it has the disadvantage – which I find very annoying – that I have to navigate through the folder structure every time to temporarily show or hide a specific folder. I have numerous folders whose images I sometimes only want to view briefly on the map so as not to overload it. Be it specific holidays, OSM documentation or whatever.

It would be nice if you could mark certain folders as favourites so that you could enable or disable them more quickly. These could appear on the first page of the folder structure; there's plenty of space there.
Alternatively, the 5–10 most recently selected folders could be displayed there, so that they can be selected or deselected more quickly.

Hi,

I hope everyone is alive in these hot days ...

New version has two big refactorings (Point screen & color picker), so I've also left the previous 4.35.0.3 in case of any serious problem.

Version 4.35.0.4 (8.8.2026)
   - add: color picker now offers palettes, a shade grid and exact RGB, HSV or hex values, with opacity and recent colors
   - chg: line style, dashboard and drawing screens now open the same color picker as the rest of the app
   - chg: point detail screen redesigned to match the track screen, with better use of space on large displays
   - chg: improved support for tablet layouts in geocache filter, device info and app updates dialogs
   - fix: geocache logs list could crash in rare cases when a GPX import left multiple logs without an ID
   - fix: map cursor stayed centered instead of the preset's shifted position when navigation started from a track opened above the map
   - fix: guide line, distance and time to target could freeze during guidance and navigation while you kept moving
   - fix: guidance to a point no longer announces arrival at the moment it starts, which also silenced the notification when you really arrived
   - fix: a downloaded item could occasionally fail to open or import right after the download finished
   - fix: (SILVER) live map no longer shows a repeating connection warning while panning the map without an internet connection (e.g. flight mode)
   - fix: track detail no longer shows outdated elevation gain/loss after recalculating a track's elevation
   - fix: (SILVER) crash when opening track detail from a dashboard after stopping recording
   - fix: crash when searching for a place from the live tracking chat
   - fix: hidden import dialog when importing geocaches over search
   - chg: map overlay photo/video folder picker now reopens in the last folder you browsed

I think, for better awareness about the color, the color field itself could be bigger. It's a bit small. IMO in that screen there should be a clickable, seemless transitions color palette with a full width preview.

am flying over for 6 weeks Czechia cycling from our Tasmanian winter next week; Czechia seems to be a little cooler next week but it will be a temperature shock ;-)

Thanks for the new beta!

Track Details Panel: the recalculation of elevation data is now updated immediately (see helpdesk).

Unfortunately, this does not apply to changes to the elevation threshold (slider). Here, you still need to close and reopen the panel to see the change...

"map overlay photo/video folder picker now reopens in the last folder you browsed": better, but favourites would still be useful. If you need a completely different folder, you still have to laboriously work your way through everything.
