Measuring your fingers - the difference in altitude

Josef Žajdlík shared this idea 5 years ago

When planning a route, it would be a good idea to have an altitude difference for distance measurements. See picture.

Hello Josef,

do you know feature "Two finger measurement"? What about extending this to display not just distance (as now), but also elevation?

EDIT:

Ah, it is already possible with "map_items_selection_line_value_above" and "map_items_selection_line_value_below" values over config.cfg file.

I set both items to 1, but I see the distance above and below the line and not the altitude difference. See scr.

But for 4 , only elevation of selected point is shown below line..

It would make sense to put another number in config. Number 7 ,which would be the difference in altitude (differential elevation) between gps location and the point select line

I've just moved settings from config.cfg to internal "expert settings" directly in the application, so it will be easier to change this.

A new result on the screen. Believe it will be more useful now.

I think no such value is needed. For this you may use Settings > Maps > Auxiliary graphics > Cursor to position line option.
