Hi,



please, try with last beta10 version, tell me if the problem persist.

I think that beta10 solves a similar issue with KML overlays we discussed some months ago but it was difficult to reproduce it :-)

I tried a couple times and it remembers the opened overlays after killing the application.

I think that if you check the "User Interface -> Cursor -> Cursor to bottom" you will have this behaviour.

As far as I'm concerned the overflow has always been there, and it's fine (Android standard).

It depends on the device. Until now, If the device had a "hard" menu button, the overflow was not there.



Now it is always there and the device's hard button is disabled.



I whould prefer both of them to work on such devices :-)

If you press the zoom reset button (between zoom-in and zoom-out button), you also have the orientation of the map reset.

What datum has the map you want to convert?

Where can I read the current position in deg, arcminutes and arcseconds in OruxMaps?



I mean in  a notation similar to this:



42° 25.32′



Which menus do I have to tap exactly?



Peter

Settings -> User Interface -> Dashboard -> User Interface -> and you select "Coordinates"





Now you have the coordinates at the bottom of the map

At Tracks - Manage menu:



If you tap on a track in the database, on the empty space on the right of the name, not on the name, you have a menu that has the "Export as ..." option to export to KML, KMZ or GPX.



For Import you have to press the bottom right button, the one that looks look the download arrow.

I am glad  :mrgreen:  :mrgreen:



Keep doing great work!

I don't know if this behaviour is intentional but I noticed that if I rotate the map and then disable the rotate guesture from the settings, when I press the zoom reset button, the map stay rotated and does not orientate to the north.



If the button is pressed with the rotate guesture turned on again, then the map's orientation is reseted.

In previous versions, my default zoom (set to 300% due to poor eyesight and resolution of screen) was respected as I zoomed. Now it keeps zooming to maps that are around 100%. There needs to be an option that the 300% value is the default view after zooming in/out to another layer.

It is a bug,



I will try to keep pre zoom level if enabled.

I  had never changed the default zoom setting to face this issue.



Just tried with the beta5 and it works perfect!

Double or half (zoom in/zoom out) of the default zoom and keeps the value between layers :-)

Is it intentional that double tap zoom only zooms digitally?

I just tested this and it happens only if the "only digital zoom" is enabled for the on screen buttons

Tried beta 4



Double tap (move & zoom) progresive. Very good, I like it!



The vector map redrawing is not better for me :-(



I don't use vector maps but I tried one just for the beta test.

It is a Garmin IMG file with a lot of information, not just major roads.



The redrawing is better after the first time but the delay is still there.



These vector maps has all layers in vector data, not as a photo, so maybe the tiles that oruxmaps creates, doesn't need the graphic improvement that adds the delay.

Hardware button zooming works much better ta in b3.

I think it may only be a problem for vector maps and it depends on the current map view as to how big or small a problem it is. When you do see it it is repeatable by simply zooming in and back out again.

I just tried with one vector map and I confirm this, but only for the vector maps. The raster maps work perfect.

Maybe because the vector map is drawn by many little tiles.

Beta 3 tested for a while



The thickness of the drawn tracks, overlays and waypoints is OK now!



The progresive zoom is very good opticaly!

Sometimes during zoom out (with the buttons) I have a little lag, propably when redrawing the map.



The funny thing is that the lag is bigger at my 2core tablet and smaller at my 600MHz phone.

Maybe because at the big screen, bigger surface of the map needs redrawing.



Don't consider the lag as critical, there is no problem and the application is full useable :-)



The scale bar is working perfect, it keeps changing until you reach the highest digital zoom

Too many different opinions about the threshold and the step :-) :-) i suppose confusing for the developer :-)



These opinions depends on the size of the screen of each user and on the maps he is using.



For example the 50% buttons step is very good on my 3.4 inch phone but too much on my 7 inch tablet :-)
