Showing azimuth like distance circles

Hi,

i have found next two options in Settings -> Maps -> Auxiliary graphics:

- Distance circles

- Cursor to position line

Both are very useful for me, and especially i liked option that shows azimuth in cursor to point line. I wanted to ask is there an option that will show azimuth values something like distance circles? I have put a picture what I am trying to find.

Hi balloni55,

thanks i have copy your file and it works.

The thing is that i need solution like distance circles. I want to use Locus map while I am skiing and it would be difficult to take off the gloves to change the screen. :)

Since I don't have a compass in my phone (and to be honest I don't trust them, on couple of phones they didn't worked well) i have buy Suunto-Clipper so with it and phone that shows azimuth on screen I can quickly determine on which slope I need to go...

Hi balloni55,


i have put azimuth cirrcle in icon pack (named it ic_location_gps.png). When I enable GPS azimuth circle is showed then. Comparing to your solution this doesn't work in case that i enable map rotation (when my directioni is pointing to the top of the screen), but since I don't have compass in my phone icon aproach works for me :)
