Can't export directly to google drive

This follows on from : https://help.locusmap.eu/topic/40339-locus-a-google-disk-na-telefonu-on-a-tabletu-off

I also cannot see gdrive in the System File Manager (SAF) when exporting tracks or points. gdrive does appear when importing.

Low priority as there are workarounds, but its a bit perplexing.

I've tried it on four different devices:

Samsung A71 (Android 13 One UI 5.1)

Samsung Tab A8 (Android 14 One UI 6.1)

Moto G4 Plus (Android 8.1)

Bluestacks emulator (Android 11)

In all cases gdrive does appear when importing but is not present when exporting and there is no way to make it appear. I've tried all menus/options, cleared caches, logged off/on gdrive, rebooted etc. There are workarounds e.g. by save to local storage then move it but that shouldn't really be necessary.

However, I have at least 3 other apps (e.g. Collabora Office, keymapper, WristTrigger) which CAN export/save to gdrive using SAF without any problems - and they do not have any special android or gdrive permissions.

So it does seem that this might be an issue with Locus Map itself rather than android, or maybe some combination/interaction.

Please would you confirm whether you can see gdrive when exporting from LM on the dev/support teams devices ? And show a screenshot if so.

(By the way - I believe automatic backup to google drive is possible without needing full gdrive access as confirmed here: https://forum.locusmap.eu/index.php?topic=9436.msg79835#msg79835. It's a choice not to do it.)
