Title: Distance line text
Post by: Maki on July 04, 2023, 11:10:44 AM
Hi,

I was wondering if it is possible to have the distance line* text positioned at the bottom (just above the dashboard, or maybe *in* the dashboard) like it was before. It seemed a good idea at first, but honestly it become annoying fast. It's not that every time I pan the map I'm interested in knowing the distance, sometimes I'm just looking at the map searching for a road or something, and the damn text covers the map. A smartphone screen isn't that big anyway, even if the text is at the bottom is plenty reachable and readable.

I haven't found any option in the preferences, but maybe I missed it.

* I mean, the line drawn from map center to GPS position that shows distance, elevation difference and slope

Yes, it is possible to be in configuration >visual elements >dashboard>Attach measurements to the scorecard.

This function is no longer linked to using line last GPS position, it can be used independently.
Fortunately it was not removed, only improved
