Greetings from India,
I just wanted to make waypoints by adding coordinates of Indian grid system. By using epsg code it gives almost 150m error. Can you resolve/ add the input method to Indian grid system in making a waypoint?

Kindly go to this video link...skip 55 seconds you can see the procedure for "pop up" dialogue box and " properties" option...

I tested same activity in my mobile also...it worked perfectly. I don't have exact clue, but uninstalling and reinstalling may solve it. Secondly importing a kml into its database and after that browse it as overlay may act proper.

To edit waypoint of a track/ route.
1 Go to manage track
2 Find the track, short press on body of track list. It will pop up a dialogue box.
3 select properties, here you can find a pencil icon in mid area. Select it.
4 Now you are in edit mode of a track.
5 Select the perticular Waypoint by tapping on on it. You can edit its value by selecting pencil icon in dashboard area.
----------------------------
If you want to change the name of waypoint
Follow above procedures upto 4th point.
5. In properties section, just after the pencil tool, there is also a waypoint tool. It will allow you to change name and other parameters.
1 Tap on body of waypoint list.
2 Edit properties
3 change the name or other things.

Hello sir,
First of all THANKS for consideration.I got new updated version, one more tweak ..... I personally feel that the option for tweaking "invert viewshed" and chose "colour viewshed" while touching icon of viewshed would much more handy. There is only "transparency" slider tool, thats very nice.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks,
You are right, infact I checked it ...seems good. But my request still persists because most of the people use this in day time...and screen should be lit perfect in both the situations.
Thanks once again.

Hello Orux,
Great effort for new avatar for SOS messages. I installed it, works fine...but one request from my side is..... Kindly change the colour of bottom button bar. Because it merely seen in black (actually very dark) background. Buttons and background should be in little contrast colours.
Thanks in advance.

Just look the brand you use in dontkillmyapp.com

Hello,
I am from India....hope you are enjoying the Oruxmaps. I am using this application since 2016. I make tutorial in you tube.
For your help I have a PDF in which you can get links of my video for a particular tool. You can skip the video as indicated in PDF.
I hope it will be beneficial for learning about the various tools and using Oruxmaps too.
Thanks
Link for the PDF...

Greetings from India,
I am using Oruxmaps since 2016. Thank you for listening to users and releasing new updates.
My question is regarding creating waypoints.
I have my own grid system (Indian grid) can i put these data to make any waypoint?
I saw there is an option newly added as "+codes". Similarly can you add a field for the EPSG code or Indian grid?
Thanks once again.

Hi,
today, i download this new version from playstore, over the old one 8.1.10

When i run this new version, i notice that on the main menu screen, now the fonts size is larger. Is there any way to make them as it was on 8.1.10 ? Where we can found this option into settings ?

thanks

Hello,
I think you can go for an option given under, global settings/User interface/Dashboard/(here you can select 6th option for font size)

Hello Sir,
I am regular user of Oruxmaps and I feel that a tool related to enhancement of 3D viewing must be added.
(1) there should be a rotating controller button
(While running on PC via emulator like, bluestacks it is very difficult to rotate map.). Since most of the PC dont have touch screen and gesture controller touch pad.
(2) A toggle radio button for environmental condition (which data is to be correlated with weather report) can be added to simulate the situation of that place while visualising 3D.
I hope these two demands will be considered.... thanks in advance.

Hello sir,
I am great fan of Oruxmaps. Previously we had some conversations regarding AIS and others.
I came to know an excellent feature in Oruxmaps that is night mode under map tools. This is excellent for night navigation. Specially when in drive...one submission from my side is...kindly give such an option that map could be flip left to right, so that one can place it over dashboard of car and see through reflection of windscreen. Additional dedicated button for resuming the flip button should be there just like track button in GP version.
My second submission is about 3D map...environment effect like aerial lightness in mountains at farther one is little lighter than the front mountain...can it be added in some slider or radio button?
I am your great fan sir ...kindly consider my request to add these two additional things.
Regards.
