the latest GP version or new beta, does it has a max number to support user saved locations (favorites) ?

if the answer is NO and we have over 500 or 1000 saved places, will the app start to slow in use ?

can we have the ability to backup / restore those location and export them at txt files ? can we can transfer them from web route planners ? from other android apps ?

thanks

Hi,
last years i had test the offline navigation. I had download from the settings of orux the graphhopper files for my country (europe). I had also found the follow link for manual download the same files  >>>>   www.oruxmaps.com/graphhopper
Now, with the last version from playstore - none method is working. I have only found into settings, the ability to add the folder link with graphhopper files. But i haven't the files for europe.

any idea ?

None of us are professionals, sorry if I misexpressed myself, I just meant to help and clarify your request 👍

Hi tronpo,
delete the word "professional" and replace it with "power user". If i had the 1/100 % from your experience, I wouldn't ask for help to this forum.

do you believe that you are rookie user? if some one can answer to other people request, definitely he has knowledge and good experience

thanks tronpo

Apps offer different ways to do the same thing.
No?

this is the reason i was confused. I am not i pro user

Hello lneam,
this button already exists - see screenshot from 10.5.0 GP.

thanks lenz for your help

at those screenshots we can see how different is the icon philosophy for map rotation

Are you looking for this?

By pressing the compass, the map returns to North on top
You have to activate in:
Setting Up >Visuals elements  >Multiple UIs>Map rotation indication

no, tronpo

i am looking for a button into the navigation screen like others apps i use - osmand or locus are having that. When we press this button, the user can instantly have access at the 4 options for using the map orientation, without visiting the app settings > map > map orientation
this feature is very useful

There are two dashboard components sizes, big and small.
The size is relative to the pixel density of the screen. Two devices with the same number of pixels, but different density (pixels per inch) will have different numbers of dashboard elements per line.
You can change the size of the text inside the dashboard controls in the settings.

i have wrote that i set at both devices the small fonts. Maybe a solution is to add a new "extra small" option. This could be a possible solution

You can attach different buttons to the right/left button panels. One of them allows you to change the rotation mode

i know this, but i can't found which is the right "button". I have read also the v9 manual.

using this version, i don't have found how to setup a few options

1. the dashboard size
i have set into settings "small" size. But into my 2 smartphones with same horizontal resolution (1080 pixels), there is no same view. Left device has 4 items into 1 row and right device has 4 items into 2 rows

left device has 1080x2160
right device has 1080x2408

2. map rotation icon
is there any option to have into navigation screen / map, one icon to change the map rotation instantly ?

Clarified the matter! Now it's time for orux to improve this point, don't you think? 😉

Yes my friend, i totally agree with you

[It is a map tool]

From what I read in the two examples you give, both use GPS right?

Hi tronpo,

i had wrote to my post this "the user can use this tool with GPS receiver OFF. It is a map tool"

the only mistake i did is that oruxmaps doesn't support this tool. Ι didn't remember well. With your answer you confirmed it

You can configure it in visual elements >cursor>others.

Hi tronpo,
as i told before - this is not working. Both answers is for the GPS receiver. I am talking about distance cycles for map measure . I will present 2 examples

Radius-ruler widget
http://osmand.net/docs/user/widgets/radius-ruler
Distance circles
https://docs.locusmap.app/doku.php?id=manual:user_guide:maps_settings#distance_circles

the user can use this tool with GPS receiver OFF. It is a map tool

question 1 : parameters > user > cursor
lacdan

not working

questions for v10 app

- how we can enable view of "distance circles" ? i have forgot

- how soon we will found a pdf manual for v10 program

- inside the program we can see "changlog" from v1.0.0 up to latest vesrion. How we can export this list to a txt file ?

10.1.4 beta3
-->support to zipped mapsforge themes

from this version and later
- if i install the latest beta over my stable OruxMaps GP 10.1.3GP, will i continue to receive updates from playstore ?
(i like the zipped mapsforge themes)
