GUI to user access to map_items_line_to_gps_value

Recently I have accidentally found that in config.cfg it is possible to set map_items_line_to_gps_value_above and map_items_line_to_gps_value_below to display different values (horizontal and vertical distance, estimated time or so) along connecting lines. A I was looking and searching for this feature for a very long time and I didn't find it.


By default is visible just horizontal distance. Especially in high mountains is vertical distance much more important (than horizontal) - even for inexperienced users. We commonly talk just about vertical distance in the Alps.


It would be fine if you put this setting somewhere to GUI, not just to config file. Or, at least, mention that somewhere.

Or at least make vertical distance the default for "below" and horizontal distance for "above". But with Locus, you always have to fight if you want anything remotely related to mountains. It's just the way it is and will never change... unless menion moves to a different country and takes on a different hobby :-).
