I find out that I have to clear Oruxmaps data on android apps settings to get measure distance working again.

But today I couldn't measure distances again !

And I had to clear data once more. Seems that this bug appears randomly.

Hello!

Explain what do you mean with measure distances (with the rule or along a track), and what you do/see.

I had measure distances along the tracks not working.

I mean no display of the distance on the screen using the tool in route menu.

Hello!

You may not have seen the message that appears, the distance and time are displayed 3 seconds, in a message. at the bottom of the display, each time you tap a point. You can tap consecutive points, and a new message is displayed.

Sorry for answring late, I was on holidays...

Unfortunately, it's not the case.

The mesure of the distance along track is working well for some time and after it disapears.

N. B.: I updated to version 7.3.1 and until now I didn't notice this bug again.

Version 7.3.1 and 7.3.2 are still buggy

Downloaded this morning v.7.3.4 Donate

"Measure distances" in route tool is a bit different, the measure is shown at the center of the screen.

It's better for readability.

Orux, did you fix the bug too?

Thank you

Hello!

Don't you see the distance in the middle of the display? Or only the first?

The tool work well for a while but after some time the distance in the middle of the display disappear.

This usually happens after I stop and reopen Oruxmaps 4 or 5 times.

(In HUAWEI devices you can stop easily an app from running)

~~Quote~~Or only the first?

I don' tknow what you mean by "the first".

I have the green and red pointer that are deplayed correctly but distance is not shown any more

in the middle of the display.
