Internal Theme

Pavel Pesek shared this question 8 years ago
Answered

Hello,


I like Locus internal bike theme. But I would like to modify it to be able to show KCT tags from the map from osm.paws.cz. I like osm.paws.cz map, it is great, but do not like the attached theme ..._gccz, this is not so great. I would like to start with the Locus internal bike theme and modify it for KCT tags.


And the question is, where I can download Locus internal bike theme. Can you please help. Or is it just enough to create theme with KCT tags only and the rest of the tags will be inherited from the default theme?


Thanks in advance and Best Regards


Pavel

Hello Pavel

is not possible to combine two themes, but you can extend Locus internal theme and add needed KCT parameters. The Locus internal themes are available in http://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:advanced:map_tools:theming

Please note that we'll completely update Locus themes in next version.

However what parameters are missing? Locus internal themes supports all osmc:symbol tags that should be more important than KCT tags ( I guess).

Thank you

Best regards

Thanks a lot for theme, Petr.

I am not a map expert to answer, if osmc:symbol containts KCT tags. But, I think KCT tags are different than osmc:symbol. The simple prove is on the page osm.paws.cz. The theme osmarender_gccz.zip shows KCT tags for map czech_republic_ee.map (colored lines), while the bike LOCUS theme does not show them (with the same map).

Just to explain, KCT tags show routes, which are "proved" and marked by Club of Czech Turists (Klub Ceskych Turistu = KCT). The club marked the routes by color on the trees and the same color is in the KCT tags in the map. Then, it is simple to follow the route, when biking, by just watching the marks on the trees.

Kind Regards

Dear Peter,

On 19th July 16, I installed Locus update. And I can confirm that new internal themes contain KCT tags. New themes are really great.

Thanks a lot and Kind Regards

Dear Pavel,

thank you for explanation. Honestly we're from Czech republic and we know the KCT routes and KCT symbols. Locus internal themes are prepared for Locus LoMaps. Internal themes shows the KCT symbols but only for hiking routes.

I guess that paws.cz should be compatible with Locus LoMaps but the correct approach is: to use LoMaps maps with internal themes or paws.cz maps with paws.cz theme

Thank you

Best regards

It seems to me there was not mentioned UniGCCz theme for paws maps. that gives paws.maps the look like maps of Mapy.cz
