In new route planer, full screen mode causes problems

I also made a screencast to show the behaviour. Not drawing the white box to the very bottom can avoid collision of the buttons.

Now as I know how to avoid the problem it's ok. If you reach "captured in broken layout" it is sometimes not easy get out. Aborting routing and try again sometomes does not help.

Hi druki,

thank you for your report. Could you also send me screenshot of the place, where you turned on "full screen mode" for Locus Map?

Maybe we can rename the topic to: "In new route planer, an empty itinerary can cause layout problems".

I played arround with different settings in Locus but did not find any setting that corrected the broken layout. But I saw that if I go to the expert settings, there is the setting "Fullscreen mode". If I activate this, the new routing display is missing the android buttons as in the reported bug.

Hi druki,

we are not able to simulate this problem. I tried at least to generate version with some possible fix. Could you please try to install this beta version and check if your problem is still there? https://gofile.me/7ecf2/fysMZPSMd

Thank you!

Hi Jon,

thanks, we've been dealing with this issue for a few days - you're not the first to report it. It's difficult because we can't simulate it on any of our devices, nor with your instructions - the bottom sheet never disappears, not even after deleting the finish point.

Is there a size limit to the video? I click the paperclip, select the video and it uploads, then it vanishes....

I've just installed the beta version you listed above and I've tried it a few times now and it works properly. No hidden start and finish panel. 👍

For my needs the new start finish box isn't much use, I plot routes one point at a time. Is there a setting to switch off the start finish box and the expanding waypoint list and have it how it used to be? The list just takes up screen space and isn't any use for my needs. I know you can collapse it and drag the panel down, but that's more extra button presses each time I use it.

I do understand the new layout may be ideal for some.

I can confirm that with this special pre-version 4.22.2.1 the route planer layout has no more problems on my phone. Sorry for the delay in answering, I was a bit busy...

Unfortunately the route planner problem does still occur in 4.22.2.1, but very intermittently. I've been using it for a while with no problems and then the issue will pop up with the + and - buttons being covered by the android navigation bar.

I've not worked out the procedure to replicate this yet as it's quite infrequent.

there, hope that explains it...

Hi Bartek,

this issue that occurred only on some devices has been fixed, The new app version is just being published so please wait a few hours.

Maybe on some devices, but only in ONE app ☺

In any case thanks, i'll wait patiently

Hi Michal, that potential fix seems to have solved it for me, the panel appears with blank start and destination, which makes a lot of sense 😀

Thanks!

Guys, it's back... and not just the recent version i just updated to, i noticed it a few days ago but only now have the chance to report...

The basic problem of button display when start route planing is back again in 4.26.1. See also https://help.locusmap.eu/topic/34441-planner-buttons-appear-below-the-nav-bar

It's back for me too, appears immediately when you click the planner icon and makes it very very awkward to plan a route at all.

Can we have a roll back version till you fix this please?

Hi,

your problem should be resolved in today's version. If you still encounter it, please reopen issue.

Marek, Locus team

Yes, "my" problem is gone now 🙃 me and my device appologize for causing inconveniences... I hope everyone on the team can breath more easily now... thanks for sparing some time to do it... 😁

Yes, a big thanks also from my side. Works like a charm again on my device ❤
