Accommodation symbols not showing

City theme. On my old maps it works, but on the new ones I've bought over the past few weeks there are no accommodation symbols, or food symbols.

OK, I did a Reset from the Settings menu, and France North seems to be working, but Germany North works for only one city that I've found.

By the way, City theme shows no Accommodation in either France North or Germany North, but Hike & Bike does (in France North)..


That's great but - it's how I want it as a cyclist - but it isn't supposed to?

OK, the problem might be to do with over-sensitive zoom levels. Is there a way to change these?

See these from Koblenz on the Germany North Lo-Map.

Hi,

city and car theme are specific and some symbols are shown from detailed zoom-level. The reason is readability the map. I can suggest two (three) workarounds:

  • use hike & bike theme that displays these symbols in less detailed zoom
  • use Menu - More - POI Beta - section accommodation to display the POI's you're interested in. Please see https://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:user_guide:points:locus_maps_pois
  • download alternative theme from Locus Store: Menu - Store - Graphics - Filter vector map themes and download any theme created by community

Thank you

Best regards

Thanks.


1. Using Hike & Bike I can only see them at 300-400m scale, no further out. I can use that, but it would be great if it could be further out than that.


For example, planning where to stay on a day's ride I'd have to view about half the route at 300m zoom to see if there were any campsites.


2. Things of much less interest like bus stops can be seen from further out. There's no way to set zoom levels where POIs appear?

Hi,

I can understand you but for use-case are important accommodation symbols for other users can be important bus stops. Unfortunately it isn't possible to define zoom-levels when POIs appear.

Please try mentioned Menu - More - LoPoints Beta - Select map (region) - open section Accommodation - 'Accommodation around' - Tap on map icon in top menu. App displays nearest 100 POIs. (independent on the current zoom-level) I hope that it could help in your situation

Best regards

Petr
