Map not centered and struggling when

Maybe I do something wrong. Evertime I switch my preset - I have two, Hiking an Biking - the setting switches back to on.

Hello Jan

if you use presets you must set the settings inside "preset settings" for each preset.

e.g.

click on 3-dot button on the right side of your Hike label > edit > pencil/scroll down and uncheck center map

Open your Bike preset and next your Hike preset, now map should be centered

What a great support on this side! Thanks to all of you!

But sorry, it doesn't work. I unchecked "Shift map screen center" and "Center map" in settings inside my preset. But it only works when I do that in global settings. And then only until switching the preset.

That's weird - i.e. can't be simulated. 1) go to presets, 2) select "edit" the Bike preset, 3) find "Shift map cursor" and uncheck it. 4) go back to presets and tap "Bike" preset again - all should be set as is in the preset. Isn't it?

Here it is!

thanks... well, I can't simulate the "flashing" on my phone (Xiaomi Note4). It's probably a hardware issue.

OK. On friday I will get another phone (Galaxy A5 2017) and then maybe the problem is solved with it.

Hi Michal, as you can see in my screenshot, the setting is disabled in my preset. And and it is still disabled after switching between my presets. But the map cursor is not centered. And the only solution is to disable it in global settings. Nothing else (enabling/disabling in preset settings for example) helps. Only disabling in global settings. And this setting is enabled again after switching between the presets. The setting inside the preset does nothing in this case.

Hi Jan,

your screenshot shows preset "setting" part, not preset "switch" part. In the preset "setting" part you select which preferences will be switchable within the preset. In the preset "switch" part you turn preferences on of off. More about presets: http://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:user_guide:settings:presets.

Oh yes, the difference between "setting" and "switch" part I saw yesterday and now I understand that you mean the switch part - right?

In this case I have a curiosity. As you can see in my video, the switch part looks different in my presets. I think there's the problem. In preset where I have the "shift map cursor" switch, map not shifting works.

How can I solve this to get the same preset switches in both presets?

Open settings of your "bike" preset > check "Shift map cursor" preference. The preference shift appears in the "bike" preset. Switch it off. This way you tell Locus that you don't want map cursor shifted when this preset is on.

It is already switched off, as you can see in my screenshot and I wrote in a comment before.

Or: can you show me a screenshot with what I have where to do?

And why do my presets have different "switch" screens?

Sorry for worries!

I know added a new preset for testing. In this preset I have the "normal" switch panel as in my hiking preset. It comes with a directly accessable switch for shift map cursor.

"And why do my presets have different "switch" screens?"

- because they have different preferences set. E.g. "bike" doesn't contain switch for "Shift map cursor".

As I have written: the screen with checkboxes just sets what switches are displayed in your preset. If you uncheck a preference, it just is not present among switches. It doesn't switch the preference off. Therefore, if you have two presets and each of them has to override another, you have to set the same preferences in each and in the first switch it on and in the other switch it off.
