Hi,

-->support to kml/kmz groundoverlay tags, loaded as map overlays,

very nice new feature - have a few "old" maps ( Kompass.at ) which can only be exported to KMZ

+++

If support for electronic gears (AXS) will follow....... ;D

v8.5.5beta15
When I start Oruxmaps by selecting a .gps file Oruxmaps start correctly but there is an error "error loading route" and there is no route.
(In "v.8.5.5 GP" Oruxmaps starts correctly and the route is there and loaded correctly.)

I have the same error with the beta since a couple of releases.
I can open a saved gpx without a problem.
But I often used bikerouter.de to create a route and than used the export function with QR code generator wich creates  a download link to the gpx file. I I download and open this file, I get "could not load route". But:
If I open the created link again in the Webbrowser , the route is loaded!
Would be cool, I this would be sorted out. Thanks in advance

Hello,
I'm looking for a way to manage the number of "Distance Indicators" along a path.



I know it's depending of the zoom but sometimes there not enough "Distance Indicators". One each 5 km is not enough for me sometimes.
Any idea?
Regards.

YvanCB

Hello,
I really don't understand the way these "distance indicators" works . It seem to depende of the track.
Here is another track, there is "distance indicators" each kilometers :



Is it possible that lenght of tracks is the root cause?
105 km => few "distance indicators"😒
55 km => "distance indicators" each kilometer🙂

Regards.

Hello,
I'm really thinking that there is something around the lenght of the track.
I modify a track of 93 km which have "distance indicators" each kilometers.
I add 7 kilometers to bring it to 100 km => the "distance indicators" are now each 5 kilometers. 😒🤔.
Help!
Regards.

Yes, that has always been the case. <100km: you have these indicators every km; > 100km: every 5km or 25km depending on zoomlevel

@ matt
You're right, the post is clear. Tank you!
But, is there any reason why Oruxmaps behaves this way?

Regards.

New beta published.
None in particular. From 100 km per Track the painting of the map could slow down. But it is very dependent on the capabilities of the phone. It seemed like a reasonable number to me. But it is true that many bike routes can be longer. I'll expand it...

Thanks Orux for the new beta!

Could you consider creating a menu item in which to choose how many kilometers a distance marker is inserted within the route?

In general, could you consider it could be useful to create different profiles dedicated to different activities? Hiking, mountain biking and driving a car are different activities that require many different settings. So when you create a walking track, it is useful to have distance markers and voice alerts every kilometer, and certain data displayed in the dashboard. On the other hand, when you go by bike or by car you need a different overall behavior of the application (and also a different mapsforge style). All this many and different information could be inserted into different profiles so as to be quickly and easily applied all together when needed.

Hello Orux,
the new image to map tool looks great but on my old Xiaomi Redmi 4X with MIUI 11.0.2/Android 7.1.2 I get 'Error creating the map folder!'.
My mapfolder is on the external SD card but I tried creating the map from images in different locations on both internal and external storage.

Hi Orux,

Thank's for your great work on oruxmaps.
There are also simple notes on the interface in Arabic, as follows:
Text direction to be right to left

& new wizards also




Sorry for the delay in posting these notes and thank you again for all the efforts in this professional and easy to use app
Regards

Hello!

Sorry, until now the app did not fully support RTL languages. In the next beta (beta31) I have set the minimum SDK level to 17, with which I can activate the RTL support. But this changes a lot of things in the interface! now everything changes from right to left with RTL languages. You may find new artifacts.

This beta also includes major changes to the map calibration tool.

I've tried beta 31 and it's great and all issues with text direction have been resolved, thank you very much

Hello Orux,
in beta 31 I still get the same error when I start the calibration process after selection the points:

I definitely have writing permissions in my map folder on the external storage: To test this, I used it as 'routes, tracks directory' and the export of a track as gpx worked well. I tried with the image in DCIM, download and map folder with the same result.

Hello Orux,
using b31 (or b28) on Android11 two strange thing when I wish to share statistic of a recorded track:
1.recoderd track has a thumbnail, but you lose it when you select "share a screen capture with the Track statistics", that is there is only a useless square edged with red
2.  taken screen capture upload a online map I never used, as  I work with offline  openandromaps and I'd prefer that statitics use this map

Sorry for these very very little things in  your great work!
