I am running out of space in the internal memery of my Samsung S4 Active, so I want to move all my offline maps and DEM data to th SD card, which have a lot of free space.



I have copied all data 3.6 Gbyte from internal memeory to SDcard.

I the Settings I can easily choose the new location of mapfiles BUT it has no effect. The directory setting is unchanged



What have I missed or doing wrong.



BTW Orux is the best GPS I ever have had and I have used Gps on hiking since 1995 !

I have an issue about the barometric heights but that will be some other day :-)



Hope somebody can help me, it is surely something simple I have missed

Hi, 'double tap' in the built-in directory chooser to select a new directory.

Thanks for helping me right away :-)



BUT

I have manages to make the directory setting switching to the SD card

But even though I have closed down Orux and restart. OruxMap will not see all my offline maps.

My setting is now: /storage/extSdcard/oruxmaps/mapfiles/ when I use the setting I can see all the subdirectories containing my various Maps.



Are there some way I can reset Orux so it will use the new settings

Have you tried the 'refresh map list' button in the offline map selector view?

That solves the problem :-)
