Red arrows above track

Andre Gugau shared this problem 10 years ago
Not a Problem

Hello

I have exported my tracks from my old phone and send via bluetooth to my new one.

After that Ihave imported them in my new phone.

Now I can selekt every track and show it on the map.

Every track is shown as a blue line, so far so good.

My problen is a second line with red arrows above the track.

In a small zoom the arrow line is massive.

How can I remove this arrows?

Thanks for help

BYe André

Good day Andre,


please check your "Export options" on old device. I'm almost sure you've exported your tracks to GPX file with enabled settings "Export as RTE". May you check it please?


If so, please export your tracks once more without this settings, or you may manually change content of exported track file (change all RTE tags to TRK), this should help.


If this won't be this problem, you may share one exported track with me and I'll check, where is a problem.

Hello Menion

possibly the export option is the problem, but I can't try it again with other settings.

My old phone has a spider app :-) so I switched to a new Galaxy S5 and sold my old after deletion all datas.

I only can work with the new imported tracks.

Is it possible to export it with your settings and imoprting again?

Hmm if you used also any of latest versions of Locus, then a lot better way is to restore complete backup that may be done directly in Locus. Do you have backup of Locus directly on old device? If so, there should be "backup" directory with some automatic backups. These may be restored in Locus in menu > more > Backup manager > restore.


You wrote "Is it possible to export it with your settings and imoprting again?"


Unfortunately I don't understand, because you wrote you do not have your old device. In this case, you can manually update content in files as I wrote. How much tracks you exported? If there is not a too much of them, I may do this for you.

Hello, I have imported the eurovelo6 germany .gpx file from openstreetmaps.org and it displays red arrows above every waypoint. There is no need for the arrows, only the blue line. Hundreds of red arrows clutter the screen and appear to cause a lag in the app. Is there any way to get rid of them? Thanks for your help!

I just realized that the eurovelo6 route is on the maps by default, no need to import. Problem solved!

Hello Robert,


this is usually problem of content of GPX file. In case, whole track is created from RTE points and not TRK points, result is this. Glad you solved it anyway.


If there will be any problem with it in future, feel free to ask.
