Hello,

first I like to say how i like the Oruxmaps App.

But I also want to tell you about an idea for a new function, which can be very useful in my mind.

I thought about a function that is able to create an offline map along a track.

In my conception it is able to choose a track and an gap to the side of the track. And than just the needed part of the online map will be downloaded. So it is possible to reduce the needed storage in the smartphone elementary.

Here is an image to show what I mean

The small red line shows the track with a length of 1200 km.

The blue rectangle shows the maps which I have downloaded.(about 3,5 GB)

The light green line shows the data I just need.(maybe 350MB)
