Share sections of data library, and other users be able to mount them

Alistair Parsons shared this idea ago

Gathering feedback

As the new data library in BEta combines tracks and pooints

now would eb a good time to share sections of library

that could then be mounted by other users to have up to date infomation.

so rather than constantly exporting and sharing a gpx.

so families could share a holiday folder, emergency responders have a curated folder of points they need.

this would be for gold users as would rely on syncing with cloud...

Hello Alistair,

sharing of the whole folder, not just points/tracks etc. is planned on the next year and it is also one of major reasons, we are re-creating data manager from scratch.

excellent

but what would be more usefull is to share part of a folder, so that people can have a combined section, for a specific holiday, and keep personal bits seperate...

I'm worried, it will add too much complexity.

With the possibility of a deeper folder structure, I believe it won't be a problem to create a sub-folder with shared content.

i meant share folder, not part of folder...

i was teaching locus to one of my clients today and they mentioned wanting to share a track folder with a trip partner who was clueless and so wont be able to handle gpx transfer every time tehres new tracks in the folder..
