OruxMaps

Quote from: "z3us"Pues con openstreetmap sí que sale bien



Por lo que estoy viendo , sólo falla con el raster ign, que deja de cargar cuadros.

Quote from: "Maki"It is very promising, I have to find the time to build a theme with transparent background, if it works it's wonderful.

Quote from: "eartrumpet"Hi Orux,

I like the new feature with composite offline maps! I'm trying to combine a dowloaded hillshade map with mapsforge maps.



Some observations/wishes:



- Sometimes both maps are shown and work as expected, sometimes only the hillshade is shown (esp. when scrolling/zooming when previous view hasn't be fully rendered). Restarting OruxMaps solves this.

- The mapsforge options are not available (choose/tweak mapsforge theme), it would be good to have them.

- It would be nice to have an option that the raster map would be digitally zoomed if the other map has more zoom levels, instead of not showing it at all.



Best regards,

Tobias

Quote from: "6745th@web.de"Hi Orux,

Did you change the barometer calibration behaviour?

E.g. If I am at 100m (DEM) and when I start the gps, Orux calibrate my altitude to 100m. that is as expected.

But when I select menu, arrow up, calibrate barometer, I get a message

"Hold position and wait 1-4 minutes"

Now the altitude is moving several meters up and down and i get an altitude which differs eg 10m from the DEM altitude. Is there now the gps altitude used?



My setting is set to calibrate via DEM.



Rest is fine, I did a 5 hours trip with om yesterday:lol:

I did a quick test and apparently either MF doesn't output RGBA or OruxMaps isn't using the alpha channel. So It's not really possible to use, for example, Mapsforge maps to draw fully opaque highways on top of other maps.



Would it be possible to have a "multiply" checkbox as an option?

Acabo de instalar esta aplicacion en versión beta 7 para probarla. He metido una parte de un mapa topohispania para probar y se me queda el mapa en blanco. Carga el mapa pero se ve solo blanco. ¿Que estoy haciendo mal?



Gracias.

Thanks, Tobias;

about the first problem, I think I have solved it for next release,

about the other questions, I will try to add those features.

orux

Thanks a lot!



Two other things:

- For composite maps, what about Mercartor maps in OruxMaps format that have been created with other tools (Mobac, OruxMapsDesktop)? If the source is the same in Mobac as in OruxMaps, it would be nice to use maps downloaded there too.

- Mapsforge 0.5.1 was released yesterday: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mapsforge-dev/CyE7_p_GIzQ It fixes some bugs (besides other things) with new introduced features of rendertheme v4 of mapsforge 0.5, so it would be great if it could already be used in OruxMaps



Best regards,

Hi, Tobias;

New beta with 0.5.1 libraries.



I have found the option to get 'transparent' mapsforge tiles. Used if the mapsforge layer isn't the base layer.

Thanks, that was fast.



I can't enter negative values for transparency, Google Keyboard (Numbers mode), Android 4.4.4

Quote from: "Maki"I gave Beta8 a try, not as deep as I'd like, but I'm too short in time right now. I'm pretty sure I'm forgetting something, but here are my impressions.



The good:

- we can  now change the mapsforge theme in composite maps

- transparency in MF work perfectly



The bad:

- if I try to use "tweak Mapsforge theme" with composite maps the app crashes

- if I use a theme with transparent background outside of a composite map it is painted black. I'd rather use white, and the same applies to raster maps

- rmap cannot be used in composite map. I have maps that I generate in mbtiles and then convert to rmap for compatibility with CompeGPS. They are not re-projected, just converted with MOBAC so they should work fine (it's really the same data)

- I can't enter negative values (swiftkey keyboard). The 0.0 trick works but we can't set opacity

- I can't edit multimaps parameters, I have to delete and create a new one

- can't escape the map chooser  with the red border dialogue tapping outside of it, like it was before. I have to reach the back arrow, which is inconvenient (especially because I'm used to do it the other way)

Quote from: "orux"
- I can't control the color of the background of mapsforge maps. But there is a flag to control in the library the 'transparent background'. With the last version, if the mapsforge map is not the base map, this flag is used. Try with white background.

Quote from: "orux"
- the different between rmap and mbtiles is that a rmap can use any projection, or Mercator projection but with different tile size or even different tile origin than Google like projected maps. It is not easy but I will work in the future to allow composite maps different than the current.

Quote from: "eartrumpet"
With this flag, map-background as defined in the theme is ignored. So I can't define any semitransparent background for areas with no landcover, so on those the map is always fully transparent.

Quote from: "Maki"
If we talk about OAM you can use "natural=nosea" as a map background. The problem is that actual landcover will be summed to the "natural=nosea" so it doesn't really work either.

Quote from: "Maki"I think the only solution is on MF side, implementing real layers and compositing options in the theme. I'll start a thread on the MF list about that.

natural=nosea is (as natural=sea) only contained in maps with sea areas, so this doesn't work for all maps.

Quote from: "Maki"
All in all I think that for the moment being the best solution for hill-shading is just multiply it on the fully opaque map with a low-ish opacity (~0.3 on mountain areas, something more on flatter terrain) so that colours aren't destroyed in S-E facing slopes. It's fast and easy to implement. Eventually there will probably be direct support in MF, so I'm not sure it's worth the time to implement complicated hacks now.

Personally I'm fine with mulitply and hillshade with white background. I was just thinking that right now only one step (different themes/styles per layer) in OruxMaps is missing for integrating a raster layer in a mapsforge map.



Other things I observed:

- mbtiles maps with 512px tiles aren't working in OruxMaps (I can send a test map if you want, Orux)

- only one composed map is working reliably for me, if I add another one only one can be shown, not matter which I choose



Best regards,

Tobias

Quote from: "orux"
I didn't know that mbtiles supports 512px tiles. Please, send me one map.

Quote from: "orux"
Please, explain your problem about only one composite map working. The other maps are not listed or not painted?

Hola;



Es un fallo que ya he corregido, el mapa se pinta bien, pero posiblemente lo estés abriendo alejado de la zona donde hay datos, por lo que pinta blanco. El fallo es que indica unos límites de mapa mayores que los reales, por eso se intenta pintar donde no hay nada.

Quote from: "martijn"For all the new feature that use 'OruxMaps servers', can I key in a custom hostname / URL, and will the protocols be documented?



I am asking because I am only interested in the features, not the hosted service. In other words, all those features are really interesting to me, but only in a self-hosted environment.



So, please please pleeeease make the hostname/URL a configurable setting. It should be no effort at all to implement that.



Best regards,

Martijn.

Quote from: "goo"Hi orux,

are there any problems with oruxmaps server?

I am unable to register a new account, as oruxmap tells me that there is already an account registered.

Probably I'm already registered so I tried to click on "remember password" but I still didn't receive any email.



Thank you

Quote from: "eartrumpet"I found a bug:

- Manage tracks/routes

- tap on one

- use "share as..." and "GPX"

-> I get "Error when loading track"

Works well for me on the same device with the current playstore version (same track/database, Motorola Moto G LTE, Android 4.4.4)

Best regards,

Tobias

Do the tracklogs/ folder points to a writable folder (not an external sdcard)?

Quote from: "msev"Sorry for off-topic, but orux, could you maybe expand your API so that other app developers could integrate certain stuff with Oruxmaps easier, for example "Pebble Bike" app  (maybe waypoint gps data, current gps position data, etc), see: https://plus.google.com/111806709733848631416/posts/hTTFcDf8dGK

Hello;



The link is broken.



I will work with OruxMaps integration (external APIs) in next iteration.

Quote from: "maortrol"Hola a todos.



Tengo una duda, que quizá el creador de la aplicación (o alguien que controle del tema) me pueda contestar: ¿cuál es la razón de que en la Beta no se pueda visualizar la "Gráfica Altitud" si no están activadas las dos opciones "Grabando un track" y "Siguiendo una ruta"?



Quiero decir: entiendo que sea un requisito necesario tener activada la opción "Seguir una ruta" para que se muestre el perfil de altitud de esa misma ruta que se está siguiendo; pero no entiendo cuál es el requisito que hace que también sea necesario estar grabando un track simultáneamente, para que se pueda visualizar la gráfica de altitud en la pantalla.



Esto lo pregunto porque cuando grabo un track, tengo configurado que se muestre el tiempo y los kilómetros que llevo grabados; cuando sigo una ruta, tengo configurado que se muestre el porcentaje completado y los kilómetros que restan para completarla; y claro, estos cuatro campos, sumados a la propia gráfica de altitud, hacen que la zona de la pantalla donde se ve el mapa y los trazos sea bastante más pequeña, se reduce mucho la visualización del mapa y la ruta.



Además, puede darse el caso de que simplemente no me interese grabar ningún track, sino que sólo quiera seguir una ruta y ver qué perfil de altitud tiene mientras la sigo, nada más.



Imagino que debe haber algún motivo técnico para que esto sea así, pero como no me imagino cuál puede ser, me gustaría saber si alguien puede aclararme esto, por favor.



Un saludo a todos.

¿Nadie tiene una respuesta?

Quote from: "orux"Buenas,



siento el retraso en contestar.



Pues la verdad es que no recuerdo por qué lo hice así.



De hecho, creo que es posible verla incluso sin estar siguiendo la ruta, que se vea siempre que haya una ruta cargada en el visor.



En la próxima beta lo pondré así, a ver qué opina el personal.

Quote from: "Quercus.JB"Hola, no se si podría ser,  además, que la gráfica se vea en horizontal, y que se pueda ocultar con un toque. Gracias orux.

Quote from: "Quercus.JB"Gracias orux, lo sé, pero si se puediera se podría ver el mapa, la gráfica y los datos q configures en el lateral, la gráfica del lateral es diminuta. Y si pudieras ocultar y presentar a voluntad, genial. ;););)
