I use OsmAnd for cycling and I love it.
I usually load on my Android phone a computer-made GPX track, display it in 
cycling mode, and just manually follow the route (with navigation DISABLED).

It would be very helpful for me to be able to see the elevation graph from 
the GPX track.
The ideal thing would be to have a graph (possibly overlayed at the bottom 
of the map) showing the elevation of the last 3km and the upcoming 3km, 
with the current position at the centre, based on the GPX track.
Is there a way to implement such a feature? Could it be made through a 
widget?

I am aware of the existing function under MyPlaces/Tracks/GPX file/"Analyse 
on Map", but I find this function cumbersome to use while riding for the 
following reasons:

   1. The current position on the gpx file has to be manually selected by 
   sliding the finger left/right on the bottom graph. It is very 
   complicated/dangerous to do this while cycling and it is impossible to get 
   the needed precision
   2. The elevation graph shows the plot of the whole GPX file, without any 
   option to zoom in. This is inconvenient for long rides (i.e., >100km), 
   making it very difficult to find crucial information like "where is the 
   peak" and "how much more uphill do I have to ride".
   3. While entering the "Analyse Map" mode, all the widgets (speed, 
   current elevation, battery percentage, etc.) disappear because this 
   function is not meant to be used while moving.

Any help/suggestion would be gladly appreciated!
Thank you very much for your help in improving this amazing app.
