My wish is, to fill the arrow, which shows me the direction of moving along, to red or other full color, . I found several examples in the forum, how to do this, but i can only find find several names of files, but not the content of them.

Dos anybody know a complete example zip file with his content as example to download, which i can use to modify? I see several picture files, but not a compete zip file in the forum.

Hello Manfred

you can built 3 different navi cursors, be sure you use the naming of the icons as in manual described.

http://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:advanced:customization:icons#navigation_cursors

with attached example you´ll see different cursors for "foot" "cycle" and "car"

Hello Wolfgang,

thanks for the answer. I copied the file navi.zip into locus/icons/navigation. Than I changed in ...Kartenobjekte-Navigationsursor to navi. So far all well. But when I move with the samsung handy around the house I see further an arrow with a blue line as seen above. The same arrow comes, when I activate a navigation along a track. In Navigieren I select Rad. Can you give me a hint, what I do wrong? (its also possible in german!!)

Hello Manfred

as i understand your whish now, you want to show the arrows of the navigation commands (Abbiegehinweise) with red outline or full color.

As i know, this is not possible for user

Sorry for my misunderstanding

Hello Wolfgang.

Thanks for your Help. But I mean not the Abbiegehinweise in the left upper corner, but the arrow in the middle of the map. The reason for this wish is simple. When I drive with my bike and I have sun glaces, it is nearly impossible to see my position on the map. When the arrow would be full colored in a dark color and the screen is very bright, the sight of the arrow would be much better.

sorry, but my english is not the best!!! I am near the 70th! and my eyes are degenerating! But biking is my hobby!

Hello guys,

Manfred, is it possible to post some screenshot with highlighted item on map, where you wants to change a color/style? I'm personally still not sure about what arrow we talk here, thank you!

Hello,

here are some screenshots from the Problem. When I move, (walking or biking) in the center of the screen I see an arrow with a blue line which shows my exact position on the map. (1st or left picture) when I stop, the arrow is replaced to a circle, which also shows my position. (2nd or right picture).

My wish is, to see the arrow on the left picture as complete colored as seen in the middle of the 3 screenshots from Wolfgang in the 2nd post above.

I'm sorry, when I missunderstood before! Hope, now is my problem copied.

Thanks for a screenshots.

In this case, we are not talking about "Navigation cursors", but about "Basic cursors" ( http://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:advanced:customization:icons#basic_cursors ).

Suggest to download few samples from Locus Store ( in by usage > graphic > map cursors ). Data are stored in Locus/icons/cursors and have to be set in app in settings. Hope this helps.
