More than 1 mapitem at the same time!?

Solved

Is it not possible to "activate" 2 or more map Items at the same time?


When I try, the latest activatet mapitem is on both placed.


Cheers

Zailor are you sure? I just test it and sees no problem ...


Check some other files if you have possibility. If not, please send me two files that you`re not able load at once, I`ll check it on my device


btw: topic changed to "Problem" because this should work!

Here too. Tap the name and after the import proces, the name changes to a red color and the map is centered on the track. I could do that with two mapitems/tracks.

Ok, sounds good guys !!


But after some more testing I still have the same problem......


So I send a mail with one map and two mapitems to locus@asamm.com


cheers

thank you for an email.


so I placed two KMZ files you send me to Locus/mapItems/test directory and both works fine as you may see on screenshot. What is difference compare to what you do with these files?

First of all. thanks for your response !!


If you now look closer on your screenshot you will see the mapitem "A" on both places !


You must have activate the items in "B" first then "A"


If you try to activate "A" first the "B" you will find the "B"-item in both places


cheers

Zailor, thank you. You discovered one of worst issues in Locus last days, really!!


Problem is that images in your file has same name. Locus export these files into Locus/data/import directory, so one file overwrote second ...


After almost half day, I hopefully fixed this issue, so now every file has own directory in Locus/data/import and path to this directory is also stored within items. Because there is problems with fact, that current system already use many already imported points/tracks etc. I really hope, that I tested everything precisely :)


So thanks for report, and if you will have time later test some KML files, it will be nice

Ok Menion - thanks !!


I was a little curious so I looked in the import-dir ........(see screenshot)


Yes, I can see that based on what I choose, the "A"-item or the "B"-item will show up as 0_0.png.


For some reason there`s a file called 0_0-1.png, don`t ask me how it was created ;-)


Just a thought ........ that`s not a possible way to solve the problem instead of different directories ??


e.g.


"A"-item => 0_0-1.png


"B"-item => 0_0-2.png


Of course I have time to test some files later on !


cheers

changing names of files isn`t a good idea. In kmz files may be links to these files in description and this change will break them. Change of directory to one sub-dir seems to work fine for me ... we`ll see ;)
